receptors (PPARs) in the cell culture experiments. Besides that, docking studies showed that flavonoids are predicted to occupy the hydrophobic environment formed by residues Phe282, Phe360, and Phe360. They also showed that there is one specific OH group in all the flavonoids studied that is responsible to make a hydrogen bond with the receptor, except in the case of apigenin.
