    Product Description

    3',4',7-Trihydroxyisoflavone is a natural isoflavonoid that has antioxidant activity.1 It can be produced by the metabolism of daidzein (Item No. 10005166) or daidzin (Item No. 13202).2,3 3',4',7-Trihydroxyisoflavone inhibits several signaling pathways in cells, including tyrosinase-mediated melanin formation (IC50 = 5.2 µM), casein kinase II-mediated phosphorylation of 60S acidic ribosomal P proteins, and cyclin-dependent, kinase-regulated cell proliferation.4,5,6

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
