Product Information

• Name: 3-Hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone is a synthetic flavonoid derivative, which is structurally sourced from the broader class of naturally occurring flavonoids found in various plants. It functions primarily as a potent and selective ligand for the TrkB receptor, a receptor for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). This interaction mimics the effects of BDNF, promoting neuronal survival, synaptic plasticity, and neurogenesis, thereby facilitating neuroprotective and neurorestorative processes.
