Isoliquiritigenin is a phenolic chemical compound found in licorice.[1]

Occurrence

Liquorice roots

Isoliquiritigenin occurs in some species of the genus Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice).[2]

Pharmacological properties

Isoliquiritigenin has various pharmacological properties and is also responsible for the corresponding properties of the plants it contains. In various studies, its effects included anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial agent, and antioxidant activities, and it also demonstrated targeted cancer therapy effects.[2] In in vitro studies and some in vivo studies, isoliquiritigenin showed effects against breast cancer, colorectal carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, bronchial carcinoma, and leukemia, among others.[3] It also interferes with several cellular signaling pathways and has an anti-inflammatory effect, which may have applications in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.[4]

Metabolism

The enzyme 6'-deoxychalcone synthase uses malonyl-CoA, 4-coumaroyl-CoA, NADPH, and H+ to produce CoA, isoliquiritigenin, CO2, NADP+, and H2O.

The enzyme isoliquiritigenin 2'-O-methyltransferase further transforms isoliquiritigenin into 2'-O-methylisoliquiritigenin.

Mechanism of action

Isoliquiritigenin has been found to be a potent (65 times higher affinity than diazepam) GABA-A benzodiapine receptor positive allosteric modulator.[5] It can target miR-301b/LRIG1 signaling pathways, resulting in the inhibition of melanoma growth in vitro.[6]
