7,8-Dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF) is a naturally-occurring flavone found in Godmania aesculifolia, Tridax procumbens, and primula tree leaves. It has been found to act as a potent and selective small-molecule agonist of the TrkB receptor (Kd ≈ 320 nM), the main signaling receptor of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). 7,8-DHF is both orally-bioavailable and able to penetrate the blood-brain-barrier.
