Description
Bavachin is a flavonoid first isolated from seeds of P. corylifolia. It is a phytoestrogen that activates the estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ (EC50s = 320 and 680 nM, respectively). Through this action, bavachin stimulates osteoblast proliferation and differentiation and prevents bone loss following ovariectomy in rats. Bavachin less potently inhibits acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (IC50 = 86 μM).
Uses
Bavachin has therapeutic potential for type 2 diabetes by activating insulin signaling pathways. Also, it has anabolic and potent anticatabolic biological effects on chondrocytes. Strong inhibitor of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1)

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 19879-32-4 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 1,9,8,7 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 2 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 19879-32:
(7*1)+(6*9)+(5*8)+(4*7)+(3*9)+(2*3)+(1*2)=164
164 % 10 = 4
So 19879-32-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
