(±)-Silybin(CAT: I040699) is a flavonolignan compound and the major active component of silymarin, extracted from the seeds of Silybum marianum (milk thistle). As a racemic mixture of silybin A and silybin B, (±)-Silybin exhibits a broad spectrum of pharmacological properties, notably hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. It is widely used in liver disease research due to its ability to stabilize cell membranes, scavenge free radicals, and modulate inflammatory pathways. Additionally, (±)-Silybin has demonstrated potential in protecting against drug-induced liver damage, fibrosis, and metabolic disorders, making it an important tool in pharmacological and nutraceutical development.
