What is Hops extract?
Hops are the female flower clusters (commonly called seed cones or strobiles), of a
hop species, Humulus lupulus. They are used primarily as a flavoring and stability
agent in beer, to which they impart a bitter, tangy flavor, though hops are also used
for various purposes in other beverages and herbal.
Xanthohumol (XN) is a prenylated flavonoid found naturally in the flowering hop
plant (Humulus lupulus) which is commonly used to make the alcoholic beverage
known as beer. Xanthohumol is one of the major constituents of Humulus lupulus.
Xanthohumol has been reported to have sedative property, Antiinvasive effect,
estrogenic activity, cancer-related bioactivities, antioxidant activity, stomachic
effect, antibacterial and antifungal effects in recent studies. However, the
pharmacological functions of xanthohumol on platelets were not yet understood,
we are interested in investigating the inhibitory effects of xanthohumol on cellular
signal transduction during the process of platelet activation.
