?? Core Value Proposition

Selective Estrogen Receptor β (ERβ) Agonist & Anti-Inflammatory Agent

• ≥98% Purity (HPLC-verified, dual-method COA)

• Targeted Bioactivity: Binds ERβ with high affinity (EC?? = 36.5 nM for ERE tk-Luc activation) and suppresses pro-inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-6, COX-2) 25.

• Neuro-Protective & Metabolic Benefits: Reduces neuroinflammation and enhances insulin sensitivity in preclinical models 36.

? Clinically Validated Benefits

1. Hormonal Balance & Breast Safety:

   • ERβ-Selective Action: Activates ERβ without stimulating uterine growth or breast cancer tumorigenesis (MCF-7 xenograft models) 25.

   • Osteoprotective: Prevents osteoblast apoptosis by inhibiting ROS and TNF-α in MC3T3-E1 cells 5.

2. Anti-Neuroinflammatory Effects:

   • Hippocampal Protection: Reduces IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α in serum and hippocampus by 40–60% in vivo, mitigating cognitive decline 56.

3. Antidiabetic Activity:

   • Glucose Regulation: Derivative Compound 10 (LTG-based) lowers blood glucose by 28% in diabetic models, outperforming isoliquiritigenin analogues 3.

4. Skin Barrier Repair:

   • Anti-Redness & Ceramide Boost: At 0.5–2.0%, accelerates eczema recovery via COX-2 inhibition (75%) and ceramide synthesis upregulation 6.
