Isoflavone formononetin is a typical phytoestrogen isolated from Chinese medical herb red clover. It has been reported that estrogens have neuroprotective properties, and dietary intake of phytoestrogens could reduce stroke injury in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) animal models. In the present
Formononetin has shown a variety of pharmacologic properties including anti-inflammatory effect. In the present study, we analyzed the role of formononetin in acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice. The cell counting in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was measured. The
Oxidative stress has been considered a major contributing factor to traumatic brain injury (TBI). Formononetin, a phytoestrogen that belongs to the flavonoid family, is extracted from plants and herbs such as the red clover. Growing evidence demonstrates that formononetin has antioxidant properties.
Isoflavones derived from many edible plants have been reported to possess significant antioxidant, estrogenic and tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity. Genistein has been found previously to provide protection from oxidative damage induced by UV radiation both in vitro and following dietary
Diabetic nephropathy (DN), characterized by hyperglycemia, hypertension, proteinuria, and edema, is a unique microvascular complication of diabetes. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Astragalus membranaceus (AM) has been widely used for DN in China while the
