Description

Formononetin (Formononetol; Flavosil) is a bioactive component extracted from the red clover; inhibits the proliferation of DU-145/PC-3 cells in a dose-dependent manner.IC50 value:Target: anti-cancer in vitro: formononetin inhibited the proliferation of DU-145 cells in a dose-dependent manner. DU-145 cells treated with different concentrations of formononetin displayed obvious morphological changes of apoptosis under fluorescence microscopy. In addition, formononetin increased the propor


Solid


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 derives from a daidzein. It is a conjugate acid of a formononetin(1-).|Formononetin is under investigation in clinical trial NCT02174666 (Isoflavone Treatment for Postmenopausal Osteopenia.).

Drug Information

Compounds derived from plants, primarily ISOFLAVONES that mimic or modulate endogenous estrogens, usually by binding to ESTROGEN RECEPTORS. (See all compounds classified as Phytoestrogens.)

Formononetin has known human metabolites that include (2S,3S,4S,5R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxochromen-7-yl]oxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid and Daidzein.
