Formononetin Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionFormononetin (485-72-3) is a naturally occurring isoflavone isolated from Astragalus and other plants. Increases adipocyte thermogenesis by modulating PPARγ activity.1Activates AMP-activated protein kinase/β-catenin signaling to inhibit adipogenesis.2Accelerates wound repair by increasing expression of Egr-1 transcription factor.3Potential cancer chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic.4Provides neuroprotection against traumatic brain injury by inhibition of neuroinflammation in a rat model.5
Chemical Propertiesoff-white powder
UsesAn isoflavone found in a variety of plants. When metabolized in the rumen this compound transforms into a potent estrogen.
UsesFormononetin is an isoflavone found as one of the main plant estrogens in animal feed. When metabolized in the rumen this compound transforms into a potent estrogen.
UsesFormononetin is an isoflavonoid phytoestrogenic compound found in soy-based foods and is the precursor of daidzein . It acts as an agonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor with an EC50 value of 0.13 μM. Formononetin has been reported to possess antitumor and antiviral activity.
DefinitionChEBI: Formononetin is a member of the class of 7-hydroxyisoflavones that is 7-hydroxyisoflavone substituted by a methoxy group at position 4'. It has a role as a phytoestrogen and a plant metabolite. It is a member of 7-hydroxyisoflavones and a member of 4'-methoxyisoflavones. It is functionally related to a daidzein. It is a conjugate acid of a formononetin(1-).
General DescriptionFormononetin belongs to the isoflavones class of polyphenols.
Flammability and ExplosibilityNot classified
Biochem/physiol ActionsIsoflavone found in red clover. Effective against Giardia lamblia infection, at least partially by inducing detachment of trophozoites from intestinal mucosa.
