(-)-(S)-Equol shows the greatest affinity for ERβ (Ki=0.73±0.2 nM), whereas its affinity for ERα (Ki=6.41±1 nM) is relatively poor[1].
(-)-(S)-Equol inhibits the growth of LnCaP, DU145 and PC3 human prostate cancer cell lines. (-)-(S)-Equol causes cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase in PC3 cells by down regulating cyclin B1 and CDK1 and upregulating CDK inhibitors (p21 and p27), as well as inducing apoptosis by upregulating Fas ligand (FasL) and the expression of pro-apoptotic Bim. (-)-(S)-Equol increases the expression of FOXO3a, decreases the expression of p-FOXO3a and enhances the nuclear stability of FOXO3a. (-)-(S)-Equol also decreases the expression of MDM2, which serves as an E3 ubiquitin ligase forp-FOXO3a, thus preventing p-FOXO3a degradation by the proteasome[2].
(-)-(S)-Equol enantioselectively increases the survival of INS-1 cells presumably through activating PKA signaling. (-)-(S)-Equol might have applications as an anti-type 2 diabetic agent. In INS-1 pancreatic β-cells, (-)-(S)-Equol induces phosphorylation of cAMP-response element-binding protein at Ser 133, and induced cAMP-response element-mediated transcription[3].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (10.32 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a clear solution of 2.5 mg/mL.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.32 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
PC3 cells are seeded in 96-well culture plates (about 5×103 cells/ well) and cultured overnight at 37°C. Next, the cells are incubated with medium containing the indicated concentrations of (-)-(S)-Equol and/or DMSO for 72hr at 37°C. The cell viability is determined by the MTT assay[2].

Mice: Mice are randomly divided into three groups of six mice each, and are treated by intragastric administration. The experimental groups are treated with 10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg bodyweight of (-)-(S)-Equol (mice are treated everyday for 33 days). The control group is treated with an identical volume of 0.01ml sesame seed oil and 0.09 mL normal saline. The tumor size is examined every three days[2].
