(±)-Equol is the racemate of equol. (±)-equol exhibits EC₅₀s of 200 and 74 nM for human ERα and ERβ, respectively. Equol is a metabolite of the soy isoflavones, daidzin and daidzein.

Equol is first isolated and identified from pregnant-mares urine and later found in the urine of the goat, cow, hen and sheep. Equol, unlike the soy isoflavones daidzein or genistein, has a chiral center and therefore can occur as 2 distinct diastereoisomers. S-equol is the exclusive product of human intestinal bacterial synthesis from soy isoflavones and both enantiomers are bioavailable. S-equol has a high affinity for estrogen receptor beta (Ki=0.73 nM), whereas R-equol is relatively inactive. Equol could promote the proliferation and differentiation of rat osteoblasts through activating the ER-PKCα-related signaling pathway. The alkaline phosphatase activity also increases significantly in all of the equol and 17β-estradiol (E2 ) groups. Equol also significantly elevates the osteocalcin levels.Medlife has not in

Equol is a modest natriuretic and vasorelaxant agent in the rat. Orally administered equol is about 8-fold less potent than orally administered furosemide. In isolated aortic rings precontracted by administration of phenylephrine, administration of equol relaxes the contracted aorta (concentration for half-maximal activity 58.9±16 μM). Equol possesses anticancer activity that suppresses tumor formation via apoptosis induction in rats with DMBA-induced mammary gland tumors. In addition, equol shows a hepatic protective effect by acting as an antioxidant and by reducing apoptosis.Medlife has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
