SCOPE
Hops contain the phytoestrogen, 8-prenylnaringenin, and the cytoprotective compound, xanthohumol (XH). XH induces the detoxification enzyme, NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) in vitro; however, the tissue distribution of XH and 8-prenylnaringenin and their tissue-specific activity have not been analyzed.
METHODS AND RESULTS
An orally administered hop extract and subcutaneously injected XH were administered to Sprague-Dawley rats over 4 days. LC-MS-MS analysis of plasma, liver, and… CONTINUE READING
