Resumo
Atualmente, principalmente devido aos avanços na área de Nutrigenômica, sabe-se que a dieta tem grande influência na saúde e bem estar das pessoas. Uma dieta adequada pode contribuir para a prevenção de diversas doenças crônicas, dentre elas, o câncer. Estudos epidemiológicos apontam que as populações de países asiáticos sofrem menos com estas doenças, e o alto consumo de soja (e suas isoflavonas daidzeína e genisteína) está associado a este fato. As isoflavonas da soja daidzeína e genisteína possuem grande potencial de prevenção do câncer, uma vez que muitos estudos já demonstraram que elas interferem em diversos estágios do processo de carcinogênese. A modulação da proliferação e morte celular é um dos efeitos quimiopreventivos das isoflavonas mais investigados, porém a maioria dos estudos utiliza-se de concentrações fisiologicamente irrelevantes, ou seja, concentrações que não são encontradas no organismo humano. Portanto, o objetivo do nosso estudo foi analisar os efeitos da máxima concentração fisiologicamente relevante dessas isoflavonas em células humanas in vitro. Três linhagens celulares foram utilizadas: MCF-7 (tumoral de mama), HB4a (não tumoral de mama) e OVCAR-3 (tumoral de ovário). O efeito citotóxico, a expressão gênica (CASP-3, CASP-7, BAX, BCL-xL e COX-2) e a indução de apoptose foram investigadas nas três linhagens celulares. Além disso, foi estudado o efeito das isoflavonas sobre o ciclo celular das linhagens MCF-7 e HB4a. Somente uma concentração alta de genisteína (100 μM) após 72h de tratamento induziu citotoxicidade na linhagem OVCAR-3. Ambas as isoflavonas em concentração de 10 μM não induziram apoptose nesta linhagem, e a expressão dos genes analisados não mudou significativamente frente ao tratamento com daidzeína ou genisteína. O tratamento das...
Nowadays, mainly because of Nutrigenomics advances, it is known that diet has a major influence on health and welfare of people. A proper diet can contribute to the prevention of several chronic diseases, including cancer. Epidemiological studies indicate that Asian populations suffer less from these diseases, and high intake of soy (and its isoflavones daidzein and genistein) is associated with this fact. The soy isoflavones daidzein and genistein have great potential for cancer prevention, since many studies have shown that they interfere with several stages of carcinogenesis. Modulation of cellular proliferation and death is one of the most investigated chemopreventive effects of isoflavones, but in most of the studies, physiological irrelevant concentrations are used, i.e., concentrations that are not found in human body. The objective of our study was to analyze the effects of maximal physiological relevant concentration of these isoflavones in in vitro human cell lines. Three cell lineages were used: MCF-7 (from breast carcinoma), HB4a (breast non-tumoral cell) and OVCAR-3 (from ovarian carcinoma). Cytotoxic effect, gene expression (CASP-3, CASP-7, BAX, BCL-xL and COX-2) and induction of apoptosis were investigated in all cell lines. In addition, it was studied the effect of the isoflavones on the cell cycle of MCF-7 and HB4a. Only the highest concentration of genistein (100 μM) was cytotoxic to OVCAR-3 after 72 hours of treatment of the cells. Both isoflavones at 10 μM did not induce apoptosis in this cell line and expression of the studied genes did not change in front of daidzein or genistein treatment. Daidzein treatment of HB4a cells was not cytotoxic in none of the experimental conditions. Daidzein 10 or 25 μM also was not able to induce apoptosis or to arrest cell cycle of nontumoral HB4a. Also in this lineage, concentration of 10... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
