8-Prenylnaringenin known as flavaprenin, (S)-8-dimethylallylnaringenin, hopein or 8-PN is a prenylflavonoid. It is the most estrogenic phytoestrogen known.[1] Its effects are similar to, but weaker than estradiol.[2]

8-Prenylnaringenin is found in hops (Humulus lupulus).[3] It can be produced from isoxanthohumol in fungal cells cultures,[4] and by flora in the human intestine.[1][5]

Properties

In an in vitro study, 8-Prenylnaringenin and its synthesized derivatives of it demonstrated to have anticancer activity.[6] This prenylflavonoid was shown to preserve bone density.[1]

Estrogenic

8-Prenylnaringenin has been demonstrated to reduce hot flashes.[1][7] 8-Prenylnaringenin also influences prolactin, and increases other estrogenic responses.[8] 8-prenylnaringenin binds to and activates ER-α more times than it does to ER-β.[1][2][9] This prenylflavonoid also interacts with the progesterone receptor.[8]

This prenylflavanoid has drawn interest in the study of hormone replacement therapy, and it is comparable to selective estrogen-receptor modulators.[10][11]

In an in vivo study, 8-prenylnaringenin has activated proliferation of mammary cells.[8] At the concentration found in beer, it is unlikely to have an estrogenic effect in breast tissue.[12] Prenylflavonoids from hops, namely 8-prenylnaringenin, are common in herbal breast enlargement preparations.[13]

Luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) are reduced by 8-prenylnaringenin.[8] 8-Prenylnaringenin adversely affects male sperm.[14] The role 8-prenylnaringenin plays in fertility requires further research.

Chemistry

The enzyme naringenin 8-dimethylallyltransferase uses dimethylallyl diphosphate and (-)-(2S)-naringenin to produce diphosphate and sophoraflavanone B (8-Prenylnaringenin).

The enzyme 8-dimethylallylnaringenin 2'-hydroxylase uses sophoraflavanone B (8-prenylnaringenin), NADPH, H+ and O2 to produce leachianone G, NADP+ and H2O.

Synthesized derivatives of 8-prenylnaringenin are: 7,4′-di-O-methyl-8-prenylnaringenin; 7-O-pentyl-8-prenylnaringenin; 7,4′-Di-O-allyl-8-prenylnaringenin; 7,4′-Di-O-acetyl-8-prenylnaringenin; and 7,4′-Di-O-palmitoyl-8-prenylnaringenin.[6]

8-neopentylnaringenin and 8-n-heptylnaringenin are synthetic forms of 8-Prenylnaringenin.[15]

Etymology

There is another compound, 8-isopentenylnaringenin,[1] also known as sophoraflavanone B, from sophora flavescens, that could properly be called 8-prenylnaringenin by scientific naming convention.[16]
