Description
2'-Hydroxygenistein a natural flavonoid isolated from the roots of Lupinus mutabilis, it has activity of antifungal, dimerization of it causes a remarkable increase of antifungal activity. 2'-Hydroxygenistein also exhibits greater antiproliferative effects in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells than does genistein, which suggest that 2'-hydroxylation of genistein can enhance its antioxidant activity and cell cytotoxicity in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.
