Therapeutic Potential of Isoflavones with an Emphasis on Daidzein
Alshehri, MM; Sharifi-Rad, J; Herrera-Bravo, J; Jara, EL; Salazar, LA; Kregiel, D; Uprety, Y; Akram, M; Iqbal, M; Martorell, M; Torrens-Mas, M; Pons, DGDaidzein is a phytoestrogen isoflavone found in soybeans and other legumes. The chemical composition of daidzein is analogous to mammalian estrogens, and it could be useful with a dual-directional purpose by substituting/hindering with estrogen and estrogen receptor (ER) complex. Hence, daidzein puts forth shielding effects against a great number of diseases, especially those associated with the control of estr...
