Cellular uptake of soy-derived phytoestrogens in vitro and in human whole blood [PDF]

, 2008
Epidemiological studies comparing typical Western and traditional Eastern lifestyles indicate that dietary intake of soyderived phytoestrogens, including genistein, daidzein, and equol, may have significant health protective effects on hormone-dependent ...

Lifestyle Management in Menopause: A Systematic Review of Women With Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), the loss of ovarian function before age 40, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, low bone mineral density, dementia and psychological distress. Lifestyle interventions reduce chronic disease risk in other populations and, with hormone therapy, may improve health outcomes in POI.

Resistance‐exercise‐induced stress intervenes in TGF‐β signaling by cooperatively downregulating nuclear αB‐crystallin and SMAD4 in human skeletal muscle fibers

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Alpha‐crystallin B chain (CRYAB) has been reported to stabilize mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (SMAD4) in transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) signaling, enabling target gene transcription. We show nuclear CRYAB–SMAD4 interaction for the first time in human skeletal muscle fibers and its regulation by exercise.

The associations between plasma phytoestrogens concentration and metabolic syndrome risks in Chinese population. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has become an important issue in the healthcare systems of both developed and developing countries. Phytoestrogens have shown estrogenic effects, which may involve in the etiology of MetS. The current study consisted of 293 MetS

Importance of interaction between the matrix effect and microbial metabolism in the bioavailability of lignans

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2180-2189, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plant‐lignans are polyphenols with low bioavailability and bioactivity that are transformed by the intestinal microbiota into enterolignans. Our hypotheses are: (i) the way in which plant‐lignans are ingested in the diet affects, in a decisive way, the microbial metabolism of these compounds and (ii) an increase in lignan ...
