What is ENTEROLACTONE?
Chemical properties
Off-White Solid
The Uses of ENTEROLACTONE
A metabolite of sesame lignans (sesamin, sesamolin). Inhibits colonic cancer cell growth by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Possible relationship between exposure and reduced risk of breast cancer.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Enterolactone is the major human metabolite of dietary sesamin (lignan from sesame seeds). A phytoestrogen, it shows an inverse correlation with risk of breast cancer in one study.
