Daidzein 7-O-beta-D-glucoside, commonly known as Daidzin, is a glycosyloxyisoflavone and a derivative of daidzein. This compound involves the attachment of daidzein to a beta-D-glucopyranosyl residue at the 7th position via a glycosidic linkage. It is recognized for its role in the treatment of alcohol dependency, acting as an antidipsotropic agent. As a plant metabolite, it falls under the categories of hydroxyisoflavone, monosaccharide derivative, and 7-hydroxyisoflavones 7-O-beta-D-glucoside, and is functionally related to daidzein. Daidzin is a natural organic compound classified as an isoflavone. It can be found in the Japanese plant kudzu (Pueraria lobata, belonging to the Fabaceae family) and also in soybean leaves. Chemically, daidzin is identified as the 7-O-glucoside of daidzein. This compound has demonstrated potential for treating alcohol dependency, as evidenced by studies conducted using animal models. The findings suggest daidzin's role in possibly influencing alcohol consumption behavior, offering a promising avenue for research and treatment in alcohol dependency.
