Anti-angiogenic isoflavonoids are gaining attention as a novel approach in the prevention and treatment of tumor progression and metastasis. These phenylpropanoid compounds as bioactive phytoestrogens exhibit various pharmacological activities including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anti-angiogenic and apoptotic effects of one of the most popular isoflavonoid in in vitro studies.
