Molecular Weight:

284.26 Biochanin A, an O-methylated isoflavone from Trifolium pratense, inhibits Protein Tyrosine Kinase (PTK) of epidermal growth factor receptor with IC50 values of 91.5 μM.






Biological Activity


Biochanin A has been reported to inhibit protein tyrosine kinase (PTK)
of epidermal growth factor receptor with IC50 values of 91.5 μM Biochanin A inhibits the hydrolysis of 0.5 μM anandamide by mouse, rat
and human fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) with IC50 values of 1.8, 1.4
and 2.4 μM respectively.


Biochanin A inhibits both serum
and EGF-stimulated growth of LNCaP and DU-145 cells (IC50 values from
8.0 to 27 micrograms/ml for serum and 4.3 to 15 micrograms/ml for EGF),
but has no significant effect of the EGF receptor tyrosine
autophosphorylation.

For example, to modify the dose of resveratrol used for a mouse (22.4 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 22.4 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for resveratrol of 11.2 mg/kg.

Rat dose (mg/kg) = mouse dose (22.4 mg/kg) × mouse Km(3) = 11.2 mg/kg
