Moracin D

Moracin D is a flavonoid that can be isolated from Morus alba. Moracin D induces cell apoptosis and shows hypoglycemic, antiadipogenic, antifungal and antitumor effects. Moracin D can be used for fungal infection and breast cancer research[1][2][3].

ChEBI: Moracin D is a member of benzofurans.
