Antimutagenic Activity of Isoflavones from Soybean Seeds (<i>Glycine max</i> Merrill)
12 Mar 1999
Abstract excerpt
Two isoflavones, daidzein (1) and genistein (2), were isolated from soybean hypocotyls. Daidzein and genistein showed a suppressive effect on umu gene expression of the SOS response in Salmonellatyphimurium TA1535/pSK1002 against the mutagen 3-amino-1, 4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3b]indole (Trp-P-1), which requires liver metabolizing enzymes. Compound 1 suppressed 73% of the SOS-inducing activity at concentrations...
