Description and Uses

Formononetin (485-72-3) is a naturally occurring isoflavone isolated from Astragalus and other plants. Increases adipocyte thermogenesis by modulating PPARγ activity.1?Activates AMP-activated protein kinase/β-catenin signaling to inhibit adipogenesis.2?Accelerates wound repair by increasing expression of Egr-1 transcription factor.3?Potential cancer chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic.4?Provides neuroprotection against traumatic brain injury by inhibition of neuroinflammation in a rat model.5

An isoflavone found in a variety of plants. When metabolized in the rumen this compound transforms into a potent estrogen.
