Isoflavone genistein may have beneficial effects on vascular function, but the mechanism is unclear. Here, we investigated whether genistein protects vascular endothelial cells against apoptosis induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha. We show that genistein significantly inhibited TNF-alpha-induced
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
This study demonstrates the effect of soybean components on the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced production of interleukin-8 (IL-8), one of the major inflammatory chemokines, in intestinal epithelial-like Caco-2 cells. Among the soybean components, an isoflavone fraction (IFF)
BACKGROUND
TNF-alpha is a key mediator of inflammatory responses and may play a pivotal role in the development of cancer and in bone resorption.
OBJECTIVE
This study determined the effect of soy rich in isoflavones on levels of TNF-alpha.
METHODS
Twelve postmenopausal women ingested a 36-oz portion
The present study investigated the potential of biochanin A, a phytoestrogenic isoflavone of red clover (Triflolium pratense), for use in treating asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Biochanin A (100 μmol/kg, orally (p.o.)) significantly attenuated airway resistance (R(L)),
In the present study, protective effect of five isoflavones (formononetin, daidzein, pratensein, calycosin and irilone) from Trifolium pratense on lipopolysaccharide-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration was studied for the first time. The results showed that all five isoflavones attenuated
The microglial activation plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases by producing several proinflammatory cytokines and nitric oxide (NO). We found that three types of isoflavones and their metabolites that are transformed by the human intestinal microflora suppress lipopolysaccharide
BACKGROUND
Evidence from epidemiological, clinical and animal studies suggests a link may exist between low bone density and cardiovascular disease, with inflammatory mediators implicated in the pathophysiology of both conditions. This project examined whether supplementation with soy isoflavones
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 present study was carried out to investigate the hypoglycemic effect of soy isoflavones from hypocotyl in GK diabetic rats. A single administration and long-term administration tests were conducted in GK diabetic rats to test the hypoglycemic effect of soy isoflavones. At the end of long-term
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
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
Isoflavones are known to possess immunomodulating and antiallergic activities. Previously we identified novel isoflavone methyl-glycosides (daidzein 7-O-β-d-glucoside 4″-O-methylate (CDGM), glycitein 7-O-β-D-glucoside 4″-O-methylate (CGLM), genistein 7-O-β-D-glucoside 4″-O-methylate (CGNMI) and
Genistein (4',5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone) is the most abundant isoflavone found in the soybean that exhibits an anti-inflammatory effect. The present study was designed to examine the effects of genistein on expression levels of hemolysate-induced proinflammatory and adhesion molecules in SD rat brain
