Insect-induced daidzein, formononetin and their conjugates in soybean leaves. [PDF]
In response to attack by bacterial pathogens, soybean (Gylcine max) leaves accumulate isoflavone aglucones, isoflavone glucosides, and glyceollins. In contrast to pathogens, the dynamics of related insect-inducible metabolites in soybean leaves remain ...

Studies on the Inclusion Complexes of Daidzein with β-Cyclodextrin and Derivatives
The inclusion complexes between daidzein and three cyclodextrins (CDs), namely β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD, DS = 12.5) and (2-hydroxy)propyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD, DS = 4.2) were prepared. The effects of the inclusion behavior

The Dietary Isoflavone Daidzein Reduces Expression of Pro-Inflammatory Genes through PPARα/γ and JNK Pathways in Adipocyte and Macrophage Co-Cultures. [PDF]
Obesity-induced inflammation caused by adipocyte-macrophage interactions plays a critical role in developing insulin resistance, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) regulate inflammatory gene expression in these cells.

Binding of daidzein to liposomes
Turbidity and differential scanning calorimetry measurements revealed the plant derived antineoplastic isoflavone, daidzein, to bind to large unilamellar liposomes. Comparing different unsaturated phospholipids most pronounced aggregation due to daidzein was observed for phosphatidylinositol (PI) while the inclusion of cholesterol strongly attenuated ...

Biotransformation of Daidzein to Diadzein-7-Glucoside and Its Anti-allergic Activity
The biotransformation of daidzein and its diacetate was investigated using cultured plant cells of Phytolacca americana as biocatalysts. Daidzein was glucosylated to the corresponding 7- O -β-D-glucoside.

Preliminary investigation of the effects of long-term dietary intake of genistein and daidzein on hepatic histopathology and biochemistry in domestic cats (Felis catus) [PDF]
Dietary isoflavones have been hypothesised to play a role in hepatic veno-occlusive disease in captive exotic felids, although empirical evidence is lacking. This study aimed to investigate the effect of long-term (>1 year) dietary genistein and daidzein
