Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Cajanin, an Isoflavonoid Derivative Isolated from Pods.

The bioactive components of (Thunb.) DC pods were investigated using bioactivity-guided isolation, and the chemical structures of flavonoids -, isoflavonoid derivatives -, and phenolic compounds and were identified by comparing NMR, MS, and CD spectral data with previously reported spectroscopic data. Compounds - were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects on LPS-stimulated RAW264.
