  • Biologically Active Molecules from Soybeans
    10 Biologically Active Molecules from Soybeans Michio Kurosu Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Tennessee Health Science Center USA 1. Introduction Soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) contain an impressive array of biologically active components. People have been eating soybeans for almost 5,000 years. Unlike most plant foods, soybeans are high in protein. Researchers are interested in both the nutritional value and the potential health benefits of soybeans. Research of the health effects of soyfoods and soybean constituents has been received significant attention to support the health improvements or health risks observed clinically or in vitro experiments. This research includes a wide range of areas, such as cancer, coronary heart disease (cardiovascular disease), osteoporosis, cognitive function (memory related), menopausal symptoms, renal function, and many others. This chapter provides up-to-date coverage on biologically active and related organic molecules isolated from soy and soy products. Their biological activities are briefly summarized. Molecules discussed in this chapter are as follows: isoflavones, phytic acid, soy lipids, soy phytoalexins, soyasaponins, lectins, hemagglutinin, soy toxins, and vitamins. 2. Health benefit of soy or soy products Soy products have been considered as great source of protein for many decades. Japanese, in particular, eat a soy-based diet. Japanese monks eat soy products as their main protein source. They are known to live longer and have lower rates of chronic diseases. Because soybeans contain practically no starch, soybeans are an important part of a diabetic diet. Soybeans are 1) rich in protein (vide supra), calcium, and vitamins, and 2) high in mono- saturated fatty acids. In addition, soybeans contain several biologically interesting phytochemicals as minor components, which scientists are interested in understanding their biological functions.

Goodman, Robyn L. Prueitt, and Lorenz R. Rhomberg ᮀ Gradient, Cambridge, MA ᮀ USEPA assessed whether epidemiology data suggest that fetal or early-life chlorpyrifos exposure causes neurodevelopmental effects and, if so, whether they occur at exposures below those causing the current most sensitive endpoint, 10% inhibition of blood acetyl- cholinesterase (AChE). We previously conducted a hypothesis-based weight-of-evidence analysis and found that a proposed causal association between chlorpyrifos exposure and neurodevelopmental effects in the absence of AChE inhibition does not have a substantial basis in existing animal or in vitro studies, and there is no plausible basis for invoking such effects in humans at their far lower exposure levels.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: BIOLOGICAL
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: BIOLOGICAL EFFICACY, MECHANISMS OF ACTIONS OF SOY-DERIVED PHYTOALEXIN GLYCEOLLINS IN PREVENTION OF CHRONIC DISEASES Haiqiu Huang, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed By: Professor Liangli (Lucy) Yu Department of Nutrition and Food Science Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of deaths worldwide. Prostate cancer is the most prevalent cancer in U.S. male population. Diet-induced hypercholesterolemia and chronic inflammation promote the development of both CVD and prostate cancer. Glyceollins are a group of soy phytoalexins possessing a variety of biological activities. This research project focused on characterizing glyceollins’ bioactivities in alleviating cholesterol dysregulation, prevention of prostate cancer, and regulating gut microbiome. The first part of the project aimed to evaluate glyceollins’ cholesterol- lowering effect in-vivo. Male golden Syrian hamsters were fed high-fat diet with or without glyceollins supplementation for 28 days. Glyceollins supplementation led to a significant reduction of plasma VLDL, hepatic cholesterol esters and total lipid content. Consistent with changes in circulating cholesterol, glyceollins supplementation also altered expression of the genes related to cholesterol metabolism in the liver. The second part of the study aimed to evaluate glyceollins’ effect in reducing prostate cancer tumor growth in a xenograft model. An initial delayed appearance of tumor was observed in a PC-3 xenograft model. However, no difference in tumor sizes was observed in a LNCaP xenograft model. Extrapolation analysis of tumor measurements indicated that no difference in sizes was expected for both PC-3 and LNCaP tumors. Glyceollins had no effect on the androgen responsive pathway, its proliferation, cell cycle, or on angiogenesis genes in tumor and xenobiotic metabolism, cholesterol transport, and inflammatory cytokine genes in liver.

  • 10/12/2019 Herbal Preparations with Phytoestrogens- Overview of The
    Herbal preparations with phytoestrogens- overview of the adverse drug reactions Introduction For women suffering from menopausal symptoms, treatment is available if the symptoms are particularly troublesome. The main treatment for menopausal symptoms is hormone replacement therapy (HRT), although other treatments are also available for some of the symptoms (1). In recent years, the percentage of women taking hormone replacement therapy has dropped (2, 3). Many women with menopausal symptoms choose to use dietary supplements on a plant-based basis, probably because they consider these preparations to be "safe" (4). In addition to product for relief of menopausal symptoms, there are also preparations on the market that claim to firm and grow the breasts by stimulating the glandular tissue in the breasts (5). All these products contain substances with an estrogenic activity, also called phytoestrogens. These substances are found in a variety of plants (4). In addition, also various multivitamin preparations are on the market that, beside the vitamins and minerals, also contain isoflavonoids. Because those are mostly not specified and present in small quantities and no estrogenic effect is to be expected, they are not included in this overview. In 2015 and 2017 the Netherlands Pharmacovigilance Centre Lareb informed the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) about the received reports of Post-Menopausal Vaginal Hemorrhage Related to the Use of a Hop-Containing Phytotherapeutic Products MenoCool® and Menohop® (6, 7). Reports From September 1999 until November 2019 the Netherlands Pharmacovigilance Centre Lareb received 51 reports of the use of phytoestrogen containing preparations (see Appendix 1). The reports concern products with various herbs to which an estrogenic effect is attributed.

Received: 7 December 2018; Accepted: 18 January 2019; Published: 24 January 2019 Abstract: Hop plants comprise a variety of natural compounds greatly differing in their structure and properties. A wide range of methods have been developed for their isolation and chemical analysis, as well as for determining their antioxidative, antimicrobial, and antigenotoxic potentials. This contribution provides an overview of extraction and fractionation techniques of the most important hop compounds known for their health-promoting features. Although hops remain the principal ingredient for providing the taste, stability, and antimicrobial protection of beer, they have found applications in the pharmaceutical and other food industries as well. This review focuses on numerous health-promoting effects of hops raging from antioxidative, sedative, and anti-inflammatory potentials, over anticarcinogenic features to estrogenic activity.

  • Appendix 1 – Protocol for Preventing Or Reversing Chronic Disease The
    Appendix 1 – Protocol for Preventing or Reversing Chronic Disease The first author has developed a protocol over the past decade for preventing or reversing chronic disease based on the following systemic medical principle: “at the present time, removal of cause is a necessary, but not necessarily sufficient, condition for restorative treatment to be effective”[1]. The protocol methodology refines the age-old principles of both reducing harm in addition to providing treatment, and allows better identification of factors that contribute to the disease process (so that they may be eliminated if possible). These contributing factors are expansive and may include a combination of Lifestyle choices (diet, exercise, smoking), iatrogenic and biotoxin exposures, environmental/occupational exposures, and psychosocial stressors. This strategy exploits the existing literature to identify patterns of biologic response using biomarkers from various modalities of diagnostic testing to capture a much broader list of potential contributing factors. Existing inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) Biomarker Identification to Remove Contributing Factors and Implement Treatment The initial protocol steps are diagnostic. The main output of these diagnostics will be identification of the biomarker levels and symptoms that reflect abnormalities, and the directions of change required to eliminate these abnormalities. In the present study, hundreds of general and specific biomarkers and symptoms were identified from the core IBD literature. The highest frequency (based on numbers of record appearances) biomarkers and symptoms were extracted, and are listed in Table 1 (highest frequency items first, reading down each column before proceeding to the next column). They are not necessarily consensus biomarkers. They are biomarkers whose values were altered by a treatment or contributing factor, and reported in the core IBD literature.
