Daidzin, >=95.0% (HPLC)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Daidzin is an isoflavone reported to have anti-oxidant, anti-carcinogenic, and anti-artherosclerotic activities. Daidzin is the major active component of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) derived from radix puerariae (Kudzu) that is commonly used to treat alcohol abuse. Daidzin is a potent and selective inhibitor of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH-2).

Daidzin was the most potent isoflavone glycoside tested in modulating differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells toward osteoblasts and away from adipocytes.
