Genistein is a phytoestrogen found in soy. We previously found that adult exposure to dietary levels of genistein affected gestation time, parturition time, litter size, pup weight, and pup mortality in CD-1 mice. The present study investigated the effects of adult genistein exposure on follicle number and gene expression in the ovaries of CD-1 mice. We found that exposure to genistein had no effect on follicle number, but it did affect the expression of apoptotic regulatory genes (Bax, Bcl-2, Bid, and Dffa) in the ovary.
染料木黄酮是大豆中的一种植物雌激素。我们之前发现,成年期摄入染料木黄酮会影响 CD-1 小鼠的妊娠期、分娩期、产仔数、仔鼠体重和仔鼠死亡率。本研究调查了成年期染料木黄酮暴露对 CD-1 小鼠卵巢卵泡数量和基因表达的影响。我们发现,染料木黄酮暴露对卵泡数量没有影响,但它确实影响了卵巢中凋亡调节基因(Bax、Bcl-2、Bid 和 Dffa)的表达。
