Descriptions:
Formononetin causes vascular relaxation via endothelium/NO-dependent mechanism and endothelium-independent mechanism which involves the activation of BK(Ca) and K(ATP) channels.[1]
Formononetin-treated Ovx rats has an increased bone osteoprotegerin-to-receptor activator for nuclear κB ligand ratio compared with the Ovx + vehicle group; daily oral administration of formononetin for 12 weeks has a substantial anabolic effect, thus raising the possibility of its use in postmenopausal osteoporosis.[2]
Formononetin exhibits antiviral activities against some members of Picornaviridae, could inhibit EV71-induced COX-2 expression and PGE2 production via MAPKs pathway including ERK, p38 and JNK, thus, formononetin could be a potential lead or supplement for the development of new anti-EV71 agents in the future.[3]
Formononetin reduces hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced apoptosis and improves the levels or activity of indicators of oxidative stress, also inhibits the activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB), which is a significant transcription factor for RGC-5 apoptosis.[4]
