Fractionation of the neutral extract of Onobrychis ebenoides (Leguminosae) yielded a new isoflavone, named ebenosin (1), in addition to the known ones, afrormosin (2), formononetin (3) and daidzein (4). Although the relative binding affinities of 1 - 4 for estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) were
A protective effect of plant extract from Onobrychis ebenoides on ovariectomy-induced bone loss in rats has been shown. To investigate the molecular mechanisms that underly the beneficial effect of O. ebenoides (Onb) on bone loss, we studied its potential to activate ER subtypes (ERalpha and ERbeta)
We have isolated from the plant Onobrychis ebenoides three novel arylobenzofurans with binding affinity for the estrogen receptor. In this study, we evaluated these arylobenzofurans, namely ebenfuran I, ebenfuran II and ebenfuran III for their potential selective estrogen receptor modulator
