Genistein, the major phytoestrogen in soy, is linked to diminished female reproductive
performance and to cancer chemoprevention and decreased adipose deposition. Dietary …

Recent studies demonstrate that maternal diet during pregnancy results in long‐lasting
effects on the progeny. Supplementation of maternal diet with genistein, a phytoestrogen …

Maternal over-nutrition can lead to metabolic disorders in offspring, whereas maternal
dietary genistein may have beneficial effects on the metabolic health of offspring. Our …

We investigated the potential of genistein, the primary isoflavone of soy, to protect against
breast and prostate cancers in animal models. For mammary cancer studies, Sprague …

Dietary compounds have been observed to have a great potential to regulate the
epigenome, which is disrupted and reprogrammed during carcinogenesis. Because of their …

Developmental exposure to estrogenic compounds can disrupt sexual differentiation and
adult reproductive function in many animals including humans. Phytoestrogens (plant …

Prepubertal exposure to soy or its biologically active component genistein reduces later
breast cancer risk in both animal models and human populations. We investigated whether …

Isoflavones (IF) such as genistein are cancer preventive phytochemicals found in soy and
other legumes. Epidemiological studies point to a reduced risk for hormone‑dependent …

Solid epidemiological evidence indicates that part of the risk of obesity in adulthood could
be programmed during prenatal development by the quality of maternal nutrition …

Asian women and men who consume a traditional diet high in soy products have low
incidences of breast and prostate cancers, respectively. Yet Asians who immigrate to the …
