Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the contents of 15 kinds of isoflavone in various supplements containing Pueraria lobata (PL), red clover (RC), Pueraria mirifica (PM), alfalfa or soybean isoflavone (DI) by HPLC. Total isoflavone contents of PL supplements were higher than that of other supplements. PL, RC or PM supplements may be taken with DI supplements. Therefore, the possibility of excessive intake of isoflavone should be considered. We measured the combined estrogenic activities of plant extracts as supplement materials by a yeast two-hybrid assay. RC extract plus DI extract showed additional estrogenic activity for hERα. It is necessary to take in RC and DI supplements with caution.
