Formononetin is a potent FGFR2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 4.3μM. Formononetin potently inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth[1].
Formononetin (10, 80μM; 3d) inhibit Ishikawa, HEC-1A, and HEC-251 cells proliferation in a dose-dependent manner[2]. Formononetin (10, 25μM; 24h) is a potent protectant against cisplatin-induced cell death through inhibiting intracellular ROS accumulation in pig kidney epithelial LLC-PK1 cells[3]. Formononetin (0.1, 0.3, 1μM; 30-60min) increased CNE2 cell estrogen receptor-α (ERα) and bcl-2, but decreased protein-phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) protein expression[4].
In mice hyperoxic acute lung injury, Formononetin (10, 100 mg/kg; ip; 72h) significantly attenuated hyperoxia-induced elevated lung water content, up-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, and increased lung neutrophil infiltration[5]. In mice acute ischaemic injury model, formononetin (20mg/kg; po; 28d) promoted the expression of ER β and p53 in a dose-dependent manner[6].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | The Ishikawa, HEC-1A, and HEC-251 cell lines |
Preparation Method | The effect of Formononetin on the colony-forming ability of endometrial cancer cells was evaluated by colony formation assay. The Ishikawa, HEC-1A, and HEC-251 cell lines were seeded into 6-well plates at the concentration of 400 cells per well. After incubating for 24h at 37°C, the cells were incubated with Formononetin (40µM and 80µM). Three days later, most single colonies contain more than 50 cells. Cells were harvested and rinsed three times with distilled water, and images were obtained by a microscope. |
Reaction Conditions | 10, 80μM; 3d |
Applications | Formononetin inhibit Ishikawa, HEC-1A, and HEC-251 cells proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Hyperoxic acute lung injury Modle |
Preparation Method | Before the experiment, mice were housed in closed and individually ventilated cages under a 12h light:dark cycle for at least 1 week to acclimate to the environment. Mice had ad libitum access to standard chow and water. Mice were divided into a control group (room air+vehicle) and four other groups (room air+Formononetin, hyperoxia+vehicle, hyperoxia+Formononetin, and zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP, an inhibitor of HO-1)+hyperoxia+Formononetin). To induce hyperoxic acute lung injury, mice were housed in closed cages and exposed to hyperoxia (>95% oxygen) for 72h. Room air exposure served as a control. |
Dosage form | 10, 100mg/kg; ip; 72h |
Applications | Formononetin pretreatment notably attenuated hyperoxia-induced elevating pulmonary water content, upregulation of proinflammatory cytokine levels and increasing infiltration of neutrophil in the lung. |
