Methylophiopogonone A（Cat No.:R072613）is a homoisoflavonoid compound isolated from Ophiopogon japonicus (Mai Dong), a traditional Chinese medicinal herb valued for cardiovascular and respiratory health. This natural product exhibits diverse pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, and anticancer effects. Studies suggest methylophiopogonone A can scavenge free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and modulate inflammatory mediators, thereby protecting tissues against damage. It has also shown potential in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and supporting heart function. With its broad bioactivity, methylophiopogonone A is considered a promising candidate for therapeutic research in chronic disease management.
