7,8-Dihydroxyflavone(7,8-DHF) is a synthetic flavonoid that acts as a selective TrkB receptor agonist, mimicking Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). By activating TrkB pathways, it promotes neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive function.
Due to its strong neuroprotective and anti-aging potential, 7,8-DHF is widely studied in neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s), cognitive decline, and mental health applications.
