General description

Glycitin is an isoflavonoid recently found in flowers of Pueraria thunbergianaI. Glycitin can be modified into the metabolite glycitein which has anti-inflammatory properties.

Application


  • The antioxidant Glycitin protects against intervertebral disc degeneration through antagonizing inflammation and oxidative stress in nucleus pulposus cells.: This study highlights Glycitin′s therapeutic potential in mitigating intervertebral disc degeneration by counteracting inflammatory and oxidative processes, demonstrating its viability as a bioactive compound for degenerative diseases (Zhao W et al., 2023).

  • Spectrum-effect relationship study to reveal the pharmacodynamic substances in Flos Puerariae-Semen Hoveniae medicine pair for the treatment of alcohol-induced liver damage.: Analyzes the pharmacological effects of herbal components, including Glycitin, targeting liver damage recovery, illustrating the compound′s therapeutic relevance in traditional and modern medical applications (Zhang H et al., 2023).


Biochem/physiol Actions

Glycitin is a soy isoflavone in the glucoside form. A rat model study demonstrated glycitin to be effective in preventing bone loss and reversing the unfavorable changes of lipid metabolism in this model.

Packaging
