High consumption of soy products in some Asian countries has been linked to the low incidence of breast cancer in women. The chemopreventive effect of the soy isoflavone, genistein, has been observed through the suppression of cell proliferation, inhibition of angiogenesis and stimulation of
Previous studies have suggested that soy isoflavones exert anticarcinogenic effects against prostate cancer. We propose that soy extracts, containing a mixture of soy isoflavones and other bioactive components, would be a more potent chemo-preventive agent than individual soy isoflavones. We
The inhibitory activity of 3 soy isoflavones (daidzein, genistein and glycitein) and their glycosides (daidzin, genistin and glycitin) on mammalian DNA polymerases (pols) and topoisomerases (topos) was investigated. Of the compounds tested, only genistein selectively inhibited human topo II activity
Cytotoxic effects of six isoflavonoids, tectorigenin, glycitein, tectoridin, glycitin, 6''-O-xylosyltectoridin, and 6''-O-xylosylglycitin isolated from the flower of Pueraria thunbergiana Benth. together with genistein, a known differentiation and apoptosis inducer, were examined. Among these
Soy isoflavones are popular supplements among middle-aged and older women based on their potential protection against cancer and their use as alternative hormone replacement therapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary soy isoflavones on early stage colon cancer in
OBJECTIVE
To study, the cytotoxic effects of some biological and chemical agents on G1, S, G2, M and G0 phases of liver and colon carcinomas and myosarcoma cells obtained with chemical carcinogens dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) and cadmium chloride.
METHODS
Eight rabbit livers, colon carcinoma and
Sasang constitutional medicine is a major branch of Korean traditional oriental medicine. Constitutions of Sasang medicine are classified into Taeyangin, Taeumin, Soyangin, and Soumin. We investigated immunostimulatory activities of fermented soybean product (FSP) extracts and their major bioactive
