In addition to enhancing immunity and anti-aging, what other effects does rutin have?

[Background and Overview]
Rutin, also known as Rutin and purple quercetin, is a flavonoid compound with a wide range of sources. It is mainly found in the flower buds (sophora japonica beans) and fruits (sophora japonica horns) of the leguminous plant Sophora japonica L., the whole herb of the Rutaegraveolenslens L. of the Rutaceae plant, the whole herb of the Hypericumas cyron L. of the Hypericaceae plant, and the seedlings of the buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) of the Polygonaceae plant. Flavonoid compounds play a pivotal role in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and Rutin is a typical representative of them. As a medicinal plant active ingredient with broad development prospects, domestic scholars have conducted a lot of research on it in recent years. Rutin is a flavonoid compound with multiple biological activities, widely present in the plant kingdom, abundant in my country, and has long been used in industrial production. With the development of modern pharmaceutical preparation technology, the research on Rutin presents a promising prospect. The discovery of some new pharmacological effects (such as anti-prostate cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, etc.) and the application of new extraction and purification processes (such as supercritical carbon dioxide extraction technology) have made the extraction and purification of Rutin more green and environmentally friendly.
