Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily that regulate their target genes for controlling organ development and functional maintenance. Soybean isoflavones, especially genistein and daidzein, modulate various hormone-mediated pathways. However, their effects on TRs have not yet been extensively studied. In this study, the effects of these isoflavones on TR action were...
