7-Hydroxyisoflavone (Cat No.: M051997) is a naturally occurring isoflavonoid found in plants, particularly legumes, and is a metabolite of dietary isoflavones like genistein and daidzein. It exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anticancer properties by modulating signaling pathways and scavenging free radicals. This compound is studied for its role in preventing hormone-related cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. As a phytoestrogen, 7-hydroxyisoflavone can interact with estrogen receptors, making it a valuable molecule in nutraceuticals and functional food research focused on health maintenance.
