Research Abstract |
Soy foods have been consumed for centuries in Asian countries. Human clinical and epidemiological studies have revealed many potential benefits of intake of soy products. In this study, we therefore investigated the effects of equol on ovalbumin (OVA)-speficic T cell and B cell responses in BALB/c mice. Mice that had been treated with 20mg/kg equol showed a significantly higher level of OVA-specifc IgE than that in control mice. Furthermore, equol perpetrated DSS-induced colitis in BALB/c mice.
