In breast cancer, the cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induces cell invasion, although the molecular basis of it has not been clearly elucidated. In this study, we investigated the role of daidzein in regulating TNF-α induced cell invasion and the underlying molecular mechanisms. Daidzein
METHODS
Previous reports suggest that soy isoflavones have multiple biological functions and may help to restore adiponectin expression and insulin sensitivity. However, little is known about whether soy isoflavones can inhibit the downregulation of adiponectin and their molecular mechanisms. In the
The incidence of thyroid cancer is up to 3 folds higher in women than in men, suggesting that estrogenic effects may be involved in the pathogenesis of this malignancy. Here, we explore whether or not human thyroid cancer cell growth can be curbed by a novel isoflavone derivative generated in our
The current study focuses on the protection of daidzein on nerves, as daidzein was demonstrated to have a protective effect on neurons of the central nervous system in a glutamate excitotoxicity and oxygen/glucose deprivation model. However, the effect of daidzein on the abdominal aortic aneurysm
Background: Human studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of soy or isoflavones on bone metabolism. However, conflicting data remain. Equol is the intestinal metabolite of the isoflavone daidzein. The health benefits of soy are
Several inflammatory effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) are known to be mediated through activation of a nuclear transcription factor NF-kappaB, but how TNF activates NF-kappaB is incompletely understood. In the present report, we examined the role of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK) in
We compared the effects of genistein and daidzein on the expression of chemokines, cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-stimulated human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). TNF-α exposure significantly increased
BACKGROUND
The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of seven days daidzein pretreatment in cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model of sepsis.
METHODS
We assessed the survival benefit of daidzein and its effect on lung injury in CLP-induced sepsis in mice and determined the bacterial
We hypothesized that the hepatotoxicity that develops after the induction of oxidative stress (induced by d-galactosamine [GalN]) can be ameliorated by alpha-tocopherol (ATC) and the soy isoflavone daidzein. To test this, we ranked and assigned male Wistar rats into 6 groups, which involved
The effects of isoflavones and of a derivative of soybeans fermented with Bacillus subtilis, designated Nattoesse, on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and fibrinolysis were investigated in vivo. The dietary supplement Nattoesse contains
The effects of individual soybean isoflavones, genistein (4',5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone) and daidzein (4',7-dihydroxyisoflavone), on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced apoptosis and the production of local factors in osteoblastic cells has been investigated. Soybean isoflavones increased
BACKGROUND
Globally, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) continues to rise and isoflavones exert antisteatotic effects by the regulation of hepatic lipogenesis/insulin resistance or adiposity/a variety of adipocytokines are related to hepatic steatosis. However, there is very little
Isoflavones, such as genistein and daidzein, are found in abundance in soybeans. These plant-derived substances have estrogenic activities and can bind to the estrogen receptors (ERs). In this study, we investigated that the effects of 17beta-estradiol (E2), genistein and daidzein on nitric oxide
Clearance of apoptotic cells, termed "efferocytosis", is the mechanism required to prevent secondary necrosis and release of proinflammatory cytokines. Defective efferocytosis is cumulatively regarded as one of mechanisms in the development of autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases. Our
The plasminogen activator inhibitor PAI-1 is markedly elevated in vivo and in vitro upon exposure to the inflammatory mediators tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Here we report that the isoflavone compound genistein prevents the increase
