Synthesizing efficacious genistein in conjugation with superparamagnetic Fe3O4 decorated with bio-compatible carboxymethylated chitosan against acute leukemia lymphoma [PDF]
Background Genistein (C15H10O5) is a soy isoflavone with anti-cancer properties such as inhibition of cell growth, proliferation and tumor invasion, but effective dosage against hematopoietic malignant cells was not in non-toxic range.

Genistein increases epidermal growth factor receptor signaling and promotes tumor progression in advanced human prostate cancer. [PDF]
Genistein is an isoflavone found in soy, and its chemo-preventive and -therapeutic effects have been well established from in vitro studies. Recently, however, its therapeutic actions in vivo have been questioned due to contradictory reports from animal ...

Modulation of CXCR4, CXCL12, and Tumor Cell Invasion Potential In Vitro by Phytochemicals. [PDF]
CXCR4 is a chemokine receptor frequently overexpressed on primary tumor cells. Organs to which these cancers metastasize secrete CXCL12, the unique ligand for CXCR4, which stimulates invasion and metastasis to these sites.

FMO Study of the Interaction Energy between Human Estrogen Receptor $α$ and Selected Ligands [PDF]
Fragment molecular orbital (FMO) calculations were performed in aqueous media which allowed us to obtain the interaction energy between the human estrogen receptor $\alpha$ ligand-binding domain (ER) and the selected ligands (L): 17$\beta$-estradiol (E2), 17$\alpha$-estradiol (17$\alpha$-E2), estriol (E3), genistein (GNT), diethylstilbestrol (DES ...

The natural dietary genistein boosts bacteriophage-mediated cancer cell killing by improving phage-targeted tumor cell transduction [PDF]
Gene therapy has long been regarded as a promising treatment for cancer. However, cancer gene therapy is still facing the challenge of targeting gene delivery vectors specifically to tumors when administered via clinically acceptable non-invasive ...

The small heat shock protein B8 (HSPB8) modulates proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells [PDF]
open12noBreast cancer (BC) is one of the major causes of cancer death in women and is closely related to hormonal dysregulation. Estrogen receptor (ER)-positive BCs are generally treated with anti hormone therapy using antiestrogens or aromatase ...

The Association Between Urinary Genistein Levels and Mortality Among Adults in the United States [PDF]
BackgroundCurrent research on the relationship between phytoestrogens and mortality has been inconclusive. We explored the relationship between genistein, a phytoestrogen, and mortality in a large cohort representative of the United States population ...

Preliminary investigation of the influence of long-term dietary isoflavone intake on reproductive tract histology and sex steroid receptor expression in female domestic cats (Felis catus) [PDF]
Genistein and daidzein are isoflavones which are reported to influence the reproductive system in a variety of mammalian species. This pilot study aimed to determine if dietary isoflavones could potentially influence reproductive tract histology or ...
