Chemical Structure
Isobavachin
- CAS No.: 31524-62-6
- Formula:C20H20O4
- Molecular Weight:324.37
IUPAC Name: (S)-7-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-8-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)chroman-4-one
InChIKey: KYFBXCHUXFKMGQ-IBGZPJMESA-N
SMILES: O=C1C[C@@H](C2=CC=C(O)C=C2)OC3=C(C/C=C(C)\C)C(O)=CC=C13
Biological Activity: Isobavachin is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-penetrating prenylated flavonoid present in Psoralea corylifolia. Isobavachin inhibits human CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, UGT1A1, UGT1A9, and UGT2B7. Isobavachin suppresses MAPK activation, NF-κB nuclear translocation, overexpression of iNOS/COX-2, FcεRI-mediated signaling pathways, and RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. Isobavachin induces autophagy, cytotoxicity, neuronal differentiation, and NRF2 activation; it alleviates oxidative damage, inflammatory responses, apoptosis, iron accumulation, mitochondrial biogenesis, and mast cell degranulation. Isobavachin is applicable to research related to liver injury, inflammatory diseases, osteoporosis, liver cancer, prostate cancer, glioma, periodontitis-induced bone loss, and Alzheimer's disease[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].
