Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Bavachin is a flavonoid first isolated from seeds of P. corylifolia. It is a phytoestrogen that activates the estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ (EC50s = 320 and 680 nM, respectively).1,2 Through this action, bavachin stimulates osteoblast proliferation and differentiation and prevents bone loss following ovariectomy in rats.3,4 Bavachin less potently inhibits acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (IC50 = 86 μM).5 | [Uses]
Bavachin has therapeutic potential for type 2 diabetes by activating insulin signaling pathways. Also, it has anabolic and potent anticatabolic biological effects on chondrocytes. Strong inhibitor of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) | [target]
