大豆异黄酮代谢产物——雌马酚的功能作用研究

Progress in Research of Equol:A Metabolite of the Isoflavone Daidzein

雌马酚是大豆异黄酮的主要组分之一,是大豆素的代谢产物,有30%～50%的人能将大豆素转化为雌马酚,影响最重要的因素是肠道菌群,其他影响因素目前尚不完全清楚。雌马酚较其原型具有更为有效的生物学作用,因此受到普遍关注。研究和开发雌马酚的生物活性,在多种常见慢性病的预防与控制方面具有重要的理论和实际意义。

Equol is one of the main components of the soy isoflavones, is the metabolic products of daidzin, and about 30% to 50% the crowd can transform daidzin into equol, inflnencing factors is not entirely clear, the most important factor is the intestinal flora, equol is a more effective biological effects than its prototype, so it has drawn wide attention. Research and development the biological activity of equol in a variety of chronic disease prevention and control is an important theoretical and practical significance.
