Objectives: Equol [7-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-chroman], an active metabolite of the soy isoflavone daidzein, is produced by intestinal microbial flora in some individuals consuming daidzein, and is considered to be responsible for the cardiovascular benefits of soy.However, it is unclear whether equol would affect cardiovascular K* currents.The present study was designed to investigate the effects of equol on cardiovascular K+ channel currents.
