Soy isoflavones and swine health
… performed better when fed greater amounts of soybean meal in the diet though it was unclear which component of this soy protein source was conferring these benefits. Among potential components, soy-derived isoflavones show promise as a nutritional intervention against a pathogenic challenge …

Mechanisms of soy isoflavones in the regulation of vascular function
… the burden of CVD morbidity. Genistein, a major soy isoflavone, may be one of those alternative agents because of its selective affinity to estrogen receptor-beta and various beneficial effects on CVD. However, the mechanism of the cardioprotective effects of genistein is still unclear. The …

In Vitro and in Vivo Modulation of Rotavirus Infection by Soy Isoflavones
… 25% of formula-fed infants in the U.S. are fed soy-based infant formulas containing naturally high concentration of isoflavones, which possess anti-viral and antiinflammatory properties. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate the potential effectiveness and underlying mechanisms …

THE EFFECTS OF PUBERTAL EXPOSURE TO DIETARY SOY ISOFLAVONES ON THE BREAST AND REPRODUCTIVE TISSUES
… cancer. Meta-analyses showed that the intake of soy, which contains the phytoestrogenic compounds isoflavones (IFs), is associated with reduced breast cancer risk. A similar relationship has been reported for soy and endometrial cancer, although the evidence is more limited. Interestingly, the …

Enhancing the transformation level of bioactive soy isoflavones in soy-based foods by probiotic organisms
The biologically active forms of the isoflavones, aglycones (IA), in soy are reported to have many health benefits and could be considered as a “natural component” to replenish the estrogens in woman at menopausal and post-menopausal age. However, the isoflavones in soy exist principally in …

Soy Isoflavones Mediate Radioprotection Of Normal Lung Tissue By Modulating The Radiation-Induced Inflammatory Response
… irradiation that supplementation with a mixture soy isoflavones (genistein, daidzein, and glycitein) has the dual capability of protecting normal lung tissue from radiation injury while simultaneously enhancing radiation damage in the tumor. However, mechanisms of radioprotection by soy …

Enhanced β-galctosidase activity in probiotics for improved bioconversion of soy isoflavones in dairy and soy-based yoghurt
The main aims of this project were to evaluate the suitability of whey as a medium for the production of β- galactosidase (β-gal) from Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus ATCC 11842 (LB) and Bifidobacterium animalis Bb12 (BB12). The study was undertaken to examine and compare the influence of …

Nuevos métodos para la determinación de isoflavonas en soja y alimentos derivados
In this Doctoral Thesis several aspects of soy isoflavones determination were assessed for the development of new methods for the extraction, clean-up/concentration and hydrolysis, as well as new analysis methods by high performance chromatography methods. Previously, the stability of soy …

Development of a standardized functional soy product for cancer prevention trials:Phase II evaluation of isoflavone bioavailability in men with asymptomatic prostate cancer
<p>Soy isoflavones have generated substantial interest in the last few decades. However, bioavailability, metabolism, bioactivity and structural fate of isoflavones have been the subject of much stimulating discussion. Of the many dietary variables of interest, diets rich in soy foods are …

Soy Isoflavone Supplementation Does Not Alter Lymphocyte Proliferation and Cytokine Production In Postmenopausal Women
A growing body of evidence has demonstrated that soy isoflavone consumption may protect against the development of various chronic diseases. This protection could be linked to isoflavone-induced alterations in immune function. However, recent in vitro and animal studies suggest that soy isoflavones …

The hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of soy constituents
… were designed to investigate the effects of soy constituents on risk factors of cardiovascular disease in humans. The first two studies were human studies investigating the effect of soy protein on hyperlipidemia. The third study was an in vitro study investigating the effect of soy …

The Effect of Dietary Genistein on Breast Cancer Treatment and Metastasis
… further research to investigate the impact of soy isoflavones on breast cancer metastasis in the future.

Soy Isoflavone Supplementation Does Not Alter Distribution of Circulating Lymphocytes or Natural Killer Cell Activity in Postmenopausal Women
A growing body of evidence has demonstrated that soy isoflavone consumption may protect against the development of various chronic diseases. This defense could be linked to isoflavone-induced alterations in immune function. However, to date, no study has examined the effect of soy isoflavone …

The Phytoestrogen Genistein Induces Thymic and Immune Changes: A Human Health Concern
Use of soy-based infant formulas has aroused concern due to potential estrogenic effects of the soy isoflavones genistein and daidzein. Here we show that subcutaneous genistein injections in ovariectomized adult mice produced dose-responsive decreases in thymic weight of up to 80%. Genistein's …

The effect of soy isoflavone intake on cardiovascular disease risk factors - potential role of equol
Isoflavones, the subclass of flavonoids found in soybeans, may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the current evidence is inconsistent. The capability to produce the isoflavone metabolite equol in 20-60 % of the population might underlie the benefits of isoflavone intake on …

The effect of isoflavone supplementation on cardiovascular disease parameters in men undergoing 80% VO₂pk exercise
… with diseases influenced by oxidative stress. Isoflavones found in soy, such as genistein and daidzein are reported to have potent antioxidant properties and have been shown to inhibit LDL oxidation in vitro. Although there is a strong base of data that supports the correlation between soy …

Investigations into the role of exogenous estrogenic endocrine disrupting chemicals on immune dysregulation in autoimmune disease
… compared to mice fed a diet containing soy isoflavones. Diet also influenced cytokine production and epigenetics of LPS-stimulated splenic leukocytes. We identified similar effects of E2 and EE implantation with regards to innate immunity, and distinct cellular subset, cytokine …

Stability of bioactive isoflavones and glycolytic enzymes produced by probiotic bacteria in soy based food during processing and storage
… the stability of these enzymes during storage in soymilk has not been studied. β-glucosidase is an important enzyme that could be used in the bioconversion of the predominant soy isoflavone glycosides to their bioactive aglycone forms. Fifteen probiotic micro-organisms that included …

Dietary interventions for reduction of prostate carcinogenesis in rodent models
… supported the hypotheses that dietary intake of soy foods or tomato products is associated with a reduced risk of PCa. The efficacy of combinations of foods and bioactives for enhanced health benefits is of clinical interest, but the interactions between foods rich in bioactives for the …

Der Einfluss von diätetisch verabreichten Sojaisoflavonen auf den Homocysteinmetabolismus und die Endothelfunktion bei gesunden, postmenopausalen Frauen
Homocystein (tHcy) gilt als unabhängiger kardiovaskulärer Risikofaktor und korreliert eng mit einer endothelialen Dysfunktion, welche nichtinvasiv mittels der flussinduzierten Vasodilatation (FMD) messbar ist. Experimentelle Hyperhomocysteinämie ist mit einer reduzierten Bioverfügbarkeit von …
