Isoflavones

Genistein, a soy isoflavone, is a multiple tyrosine kinases (e.g., EGFR) inhibitor which acts as a chemotherapeutic agent against different types of cancer, mainly by altering apoptosis, the cell cycle, and angiogenesis and inhibiting metastasis.

Puerarin is an isoflavone extracted from Pueraria root and is a 5-HT2C receptor antagonist. Puerarin inhibits the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV)-vagus nerve pathway, which in turn leads to decreased fat absorption.

Formononetin is a potent FGFR2 inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of ~4.31 μM. Formononetin potently inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth.

Daidzein is a soy isoflavone, which acts as a PPAR activator.

Calycosin is a compound that can be isolated from Radix Astragali. Calycosin has strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and apoptosis-modulating effects. Calycosin can be used for the research of ovarian cancer and breast cancer.

Puerarin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Puerarin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Puerarin, an isoflavone extracted from Radix puerariae, is a 5-HT2C receptor antagonist.

Formononetin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Formononetin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Formononetin is a potent FGFR2 inhibitor with an IC50 of ~4.31 μM. Formononetin potently inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth.

Dichotomitin is an isoflavonoid compound isolated from the rhizomes of Belamcanda chinensis. Dichotomitin exhibits antioxidant activity, alleviates oxidative stress, reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and upregulates the expression of SOD1, SOD2 and CAT. Dichotomitin increases ALP activity while upregulating the expression of RUNX2, OPN and OCN. Dichotomitin has antitussive activity and helps improve symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections.

Daidzin is an isoflavone with antioxidant, anticancer, and antiatherosclerotic activities. Daidzin is a potent and selective inhibitor of mitochondrial ALDH-2. Daidzin reduces ethanol consumption.

Glabridin is a natural isoflavan from Glycyrrhiza glabra L., binds to and activates PPARγ, with an EC₅₀ of 6115 nM. Glabridin exhibits antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-nephritic, anti-diabetic, anti-fungal, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antiosteoporotic, cardiovascular protective, neuroprotective and radical scavenging activities.

Biochanin A is a naturally occurring fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor, which inhibits FAAH with IC₅₀s of 1.8, 1.4 and 2.4 μM for mouse, rat, and human FAAH, respectively.

Tectorigenin is a plant isoflavonoid originally isolated from the dried flower of Pueraria lobate Benth.

Ononin is an orally active isoflavone. Ononin inhibits the ERK/JNK/p38 and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways. Ononin regulates Apoptosis. Ononin has anti-tumor effects on laryngeal cancer and lung cancer. Ononin has neuroprotective effects. Ononin alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress and diabetic nephropathy.

Corylin is an orally active flavonoid anti-inflammatory and osteogenic agent that inhibits IL-6-induced STAT3 promoter activity and STAT3 phosphorylation. Corylin also has anticancer, antiatherosclerotic, and ameliorating activity in hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance, inducing adipocyte browning and lipolysis through SIRT1 or β3-AR-dependent pathways.

Genistin (Genistine), an isoflavone belonging to the phytoestrogen family, is a potent anti-adipogenic and anti-lipogenic agent. Genistin attenuates cellular growth and promotes apoptotic cell death breast cancer cells through modulation of ERalpha signaling pathway.

Glycitein is a soy isoflavone used to study apoptosis and antioxidant.

Biliatresone is a natural toxin isolated from Dysphania glomulifera and D. littoralis. Biliatresone, a 1,2-diaryl-2-propenone class of isoflavonoid, produces extrahepatic biliary atresia in a zebrafish model.

Sappanone A is an orally active homoisoflavone found in sappan L. Sappanone A is a PDE4 and NF-κB inhibitor with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effect. Sappanone A induces HO-1 expression through activation of Nrf2 pathway. Sappanone A also inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. Sappanone A has great potential in the research of inflammation-related and cardiovascular .

Calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside is an isoflavone isolated from Astragali Radix. Calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside has variety of biological activities, such as neuroprotective, cardioprotection, anti-inflammation, and antioxidative stress effects.

Prunetin, an O-methylated isoflavone, possesses anti-inflammatory activity. Prunetin is a potent human aldehyde dehydrogenases inhibitor.
