Article Abstract
The profiles of isoflavone and fatty acids constitute important quality traits in soybean seeds, for making soy-based functional food products, due to their important contributions to the flavor and nutritional value of these products. In general, the composition of these constituents in raw soybeans is affected by cultivation factors, such as sunlight; however, the relationship of the isoflavone and fatty acid profiles with cultivation factors is not well understood. This study evaluated the isoflavone and fatty acid profiles in soybeans grown under a maize-soybean relay strip intercropping system with different row spacings, and with changes in the photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) transmittance. The effects of PAR on the isoflavone and fatty acid contents were found to be quadratic. Appropriate intercropping shading may reduce the bitterness of soybeans caused by soy aglycone and could improve their fatty acid composition.

This study investigated the advantages of gerbils as a sympathetic nervous system (SNS)-driven model for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and evaluated the therapeutic potential of soy isoflavones (SIFs). Gerbils exhibited unique SNS characteristics, with an adrenal gland-to-kidney weight ratio 2-3 times higher than that of C57BL/6 mice and Wistar rats, demonstrating elevated levels of adrenaline (AE) and noradrenaline (NE) as well as more pronounced anxiety-like behaviors, indicating enhanced SNS activity. Additionally, gerbils possessed liver lipid metabolism and storage capacities similar to humans, along with a simple genetic background, allowing them to more accurately reflect the pathogenesis of NAFLD.

Atrazine (ATR), a widely used herbicide, is linked to dopaminergic neurotoxicity and persistent gut microbiota dysbiosis after early life exposure. However, whether the gut microbiota mediates ATR-induced loss of dopaminergic neurons remains unclear. Mice were exposed to ATR from juvenility (4 week) until adulthood (12 week), after which exposure ceased until the 20 week.

Genistin (Gen), an isoflavone derived from soybeans, possesses lipid-lowering and anti-metabolic syndrome properties. Nonetheless, its impact on mitigating metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is insufficiently researched. We assessed the impact of GEN on lipid metabolism using a rat MAFLD model and an in vitro model of cellular lipid accumulation.
