Product Description
Daidzin is an isoflavone with antioxidant, anticancer, and antiatherosclerotic activities. Daidzin is a potent and specific inhibitor of mitochondrial ALDH-2. Daidzin reduces ethanol consumption.
Daidzin (CAS#: 552-66-9) is a naturally occurring isoflavone glycoside primarily found in plants such as soybeans and kudzu (Radix Puerariae), a traditional Chinese medicinal herb . Chemically known as daidzein-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, it has the molecular formula C₂₁H₂₀O₉ and a molecular weight of 416.38 g/mol . Daidzin is widely recognized as a potent and selective inhibitor of human mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH-2), with an IC₅₀ of approximately 80 nM, a property that underlies its potential application in the treatment of alcohol dependency (antidipsotropic effect) by reducing alcohol consumption in animal models . Beyond its effects on alcohol metabolism, research has demonstrated that daidzin possesses a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic, anti-atherosclerotic, and anti-inflammatory effects, and it has also shown potential in promoting osteoblast differentiation and exerting estrogen-like activities .
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
- Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (Ki = 0.082 μM) [3]
- Serotonin and dopamine metabolism - related enzymes in mitochondria [4]
Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH-2). Daidzin is a potent and selective inhibitor of ALDH-2. The inhibition is mixed-type (competitive/noncompetitive). At pH 9.5, the competitive inhibition constant (Ki) for human ALDH-2 is 0.042 μM, and the noncompetitive inhibition constant (αKi) is 0.65 μM. For hamster ALDH-2, Ki is 0.082 μM and αKi is 3.5 μM. For rat ALDH-2, Ki is 0.052 μM. [3]
Daidzin also inhibits serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) metabolism in isolated mitochondria by inhibiting ALDH-2, leading to accumulation of 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetaldehyde (5-HIAL) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL). The IC₅₀ for inhibition of 5-HIAA formation in hamster liver mitochondria is approximately 2.7 μM. [4]
ln Vitro
- Inhibiting mitochondrial enzyme activity: Daidzin inhibits mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase activity, with a Ki value of 0.082 μM. It also inhibits the metabolism of serotonin and dopamine in isolated mitochondria, suppressing the production of 5 - HIAA (IC50 = 2.7 μM) and increasing the content of 5 - HTOL in hamster mitochondrial culture [3][4]
Daidzin had a 0.082 and 0.052 μM Kis inhibitory effect on ALDH-2 and hamster, respectively[1]. Daidzin (500 μM) inhibits phorbol myristyl ester (PMA), which results in antioxidant action. To find out how well 5-HIAL in mitochondria and cells reduces cytochrome c, daidin (0-30 μM, 30 min) suppresses 5-HIAA (IC50 value = 2.7 μM) and increases hamster mitochondrial culture [3]. The 5-HTOL content [4].
Daidzin potently inhibits acetaldehyde oxidation catalyzed by mitochondria isolated from hamster livers. [3]
Daidzin inhibits the formation of 5-HIAA from 5-HT in isolated hamster liver mitochondria in a concentration-dependent manner (IC₅₀ ≈ 2.7 μM). Inhibition is accompanied by a concomitant accumulation of 5-HIAL and 5-HTOL. Daidzin, at concentrations that significantly inhibit 5-HIAA formation, has no effect on the rate of 5-HT depletion. [4]
Daidzin also inhibits the formation of DOPAC from DA in isolated hamster liver mitochondria in a concentration-dependent manner. [4]
Daidzin has no effect on monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity in hamster liver mitochondrial membranes at concentrations up to 30 μM. [4]
Daidzin does not compete with NAD⁺ binding at concentrations up to 3 μM. [3]
ln Vivo
- Reducing blood alcohol levels and shortening sleep time: In rats, Daidzin (30 mg/kg, by gavage) can lower the blood alcohol levels caused by 3 g ethanol/kg body weight and shorten the sleep time produced by ethanol intoxication (7 g/kg, by gavage) [1]
- Suppressing ethanol intake: In Syrian golden hamsters, Daidzin can suppress ethanol intake. When administered at a dose of 70 meq/hamster/day by intra - peritoneal injection, it can prevent 62% of ethanol inhalation [3][4]
Daidzin (70 meq/hamster/day, intraperitoneal injection) can prevent 62% of ethanol inhalation in rat hamsters [4]. Daidzin (30 mg/kg, gavage) lowers fasting reserve blood alcohol levels (caused by 3 g ethanol/kg weight) and sleep duration (produced by ethanol intoxication, gavage 7 g/kg) [3].
In ethanol-preferring Syrian golden hamsters, intraperitoneal administration of daidzin at a dose of 70 meq/hamster/day suppresses ethanol intake by 62%. [3, 4]
In rats employing a two-lever, free-choice (ethanol vs. isocaloric starch solution) self-administration procedure, daidzin suppresses ethanol intake without reflecting an overall suppression of appetite. [3]
In Fawn Hooded rats and P rats, daidzin and a crude extract containing daidzin suppress ethanol intake under various conditions, including two-bottle free-choice, limited-access, and alcohol-deprived paradigms. [3]
A dose of daidzin that significantly suppresses ethanol intake in hamsters does not affect overall ethanol or acetaldehyde metabolism, indicating it does not act as an ethanol-sensitizing agent. [3]
Enzyme Assay
- Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase activity assay: Prepare mitochondrial extracts from relevant tissues or cells. Add different concentrations of Daidzin to the reaction system, along with the substrate of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase. Incubate at an appropriate temperature for a certain period, then use a specific detection method (such as measuring the change of product concentration by spectrophotometry) to determine the enzyme activity, and calculate the inhibitory effect of Daidzin on the enzyme according to the experimental results [3]
- Serotonin and dopamine metabolism - related enzyme activity assay: Isolate mitochondria from hamster tissues. Incubate mitochondria with Daidzin at different concentrations, and add the necessary co - factors and substrates for serotonin and dopamine metabolism. After a certain incubation time, detect the levels of 5 - HIAA and 5 - HTOL in the reaction system by appropriate methods (such as high - performance liquid chromatography), and evaluate the inhibitory effect of Daidzin on the metabolism of these two substances [4]
ALDH Activity Assay: ALDH activity was assayed by monitoring the increase in absorbance at 340 nm due to the formation of NADH (ε₃₄₀ = 6.22 mM⁻¹cm⁻¹) in a spectrophotometer using acetaldehyde as the substrate, or by monitoring the increase in fluorescence at 430 nm on formation of 6-dimethylamino-2-naphthaldehyde (λₑₓ = 330 nm) in a spectrofluorimeter when 6-DMA-2-NA was used as the substrate. Assays were performed in 0.1 M sodium pyrophosphate (pH 9.5) or 0.1 M sodium phosphate (pH 7.5) containing 3 mM NAD⁺ and various concentrations of acetaldehyde and daidzin. Kinetic parameters were determined from Lineweaver-Burk plots derived from duplicate determinations of initial velocities for cytosolic ALDHs, and from progress kinetic curves for mitochondrial isozymes. [3]
MAO Activity Assay: Mitochondrial membranes were used as a crude preparation of MAO. MAO activity was assayed by the same method described for the 5-HT and DA metabolism assay except that 5 mM semicarbazide was included in the incubation medium as an aldehyde trap. [4]
Animal Protocol
- For the experiment of reducing blood alcohol levels and shortening sleep time, rats are first fasted, and then given 3 g ethanol/kg body weight by gavage. After that, Daidzin is administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg by gavage. Observe and record the blood alcohol levels at different time points, and record the sleep time after giving 7 g/kg ethanol by gavage to induce intoxication [1]
- For the experiment of suppressing ethanol intake, Syrian golden hamsters are used. Daidzin is dissolved in an appropriate solvent and administered to hamsters by intra - peritoneal injection at a dose of 70 meq/hamster/day. Observe and record the ethanol intake of hamsters [3][4]

Additional Infomation
Daidzein is an antioxidant isoflavone. It has the potential to act as an anti-thirst agent, reducing blood alcohol concentration, shortening sleep time caused by ethanol poisoning, and inhibiting ethanol intake, suggesting its potential value in treating alcohol-related problems [1][3][4]. Daidzein 7-O-β-D-glucoside is a glycosyl isoflavone consisting of daidzein linked to a β-D-glucopyranose residue at position 7 via a glycosidic bond. It is used to treat alcohol dependence (anti-thirst agent). It is a plant metabolite. It is a hydroxy isoflavone, a monosaccharide derivative, and a 7-hydroxy isoflavone 7-O-β-D-glucoside. It is functionally related to daidzein. Daidzein has been reported in Spanish sage, Begonia serrata, and other organisms with available data. See also: Astragalus root (partial).
Daidzin is a major active principle isolated from Radix puerariae (the root of Pueraria lobata, kudzu), a traditional Chinese medicine used for centuries to treat alcohol abuse. It is the first isoflavone recognized to suppress ethanol intake. [3]
Daidzin suppresses ethanol intake in all rodent models tested (golden hamsters, Wistar rats, Fawn Hooded rats, and P rats) without affecting overall ethanol or acetaldehyde metabolism, indicating it does not act as an ethanol-sensitizing agent (unlike disulfiram). [3, 4]
The antidipsotropic activity of daidzin correlates directly with its ALDH-2 inhibitory activity and its inhibition of 5-HT and DA metabolism in isolated mitochondria. Structural analogs that are stronger ALDH-2 inhibitors (e.g., deczein, hepzein, hexzein) show greater suppression of ethanol intake (up to 84%). [3, 4]
Daidzin is proposed to act by inhibiting a physiological pathway catalyzed by ALDH-2, possibly involving serotonin and dopamine metabolism, leading to accumulation of reactive aldehyde intermediates (5-HIAL and DOPAL) that may regulate ethanol drinking behavior. [3, 4]
