Norwogonin


Norwogonin, also known as 5,7,8-trihydroxyflavone, is a flavone, a naturally occurring flavonoid-like chemical compound which is found in Scutellaria baicalensis. It has been found to act as an agonist of the TrkB, the main signaling receptor of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and appears to possess roughly the same activity in this regard to that of the closely related but more well-known 7,8-dihydroxyflavone.
