General description
3-Hydroxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid, predominantly trans is available as white crystals. 3-Hydroxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid is isolated from the aerial part of Artemisia capillaris, Chinese medicinal plant. It is a component of chinese herbal medicine used for a pain killer and stomachic. It is an efficient acetylcholine inhibitor. 3-Hydroxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid is bioactive metabolite of Spilanthes acmella Murr. It increases the resistance of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidation.
Application
3-Hydroxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid was used in the synthesis of tranilast and various tranilast analogs (cinnamoyl anthranilates) by genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain. It was also used in the synthesis of glycoside compounds by undergoing glycosidation.

Chlorogenic acids (CGA) are abundant phenolic compounds in coffee, with caffeoylquinic (CQA), feruloylquinic (FQA), and dicaffeoylquinic (diCQA) acids being the major subclasses. Despite the potential biopharmacological properties attributed to these compounds, little is known about their bioavailability in humans. In

The ability of 36 phenolic acids and their derivatives to inhibit acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterase was studied. The most efficient acetylcholine inhibitors were: carnosic acid = gentisic acid > 3-hydroxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid = ethyl ferulate = ethyl vanillate = nordihydroguaiaretic acid >

Wistar rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes (STZ-diabetic rats), which is similar to human insulin-dependent diabetic mellitus (IDDM), were employed to investigate the antihyperglycemic action of isoferulic acid. A single intravenous injection of isoferulic acid decreased the plasma glucose in a dose-dependent

Tea and coffee are rich in polyphenols with a variety of biological activities. Many of the demonstrated activities are consistent with favourable effects on the risk of chronic diseases. 4-O-methylgallic acid (4OMGA) and isoferulic acid are potential biomarkers of exposure
