Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common human malignancy which accounts for 600,000 deaths annually at the global level. Soyasapogenol B (Soy B), an ingredient of soybean, has been found to exert anti-proliferative activities in vitro in human breast cancer cells. The current study aimed
Soyasapogenol B (Soy B), a constituent of soybean, has been shown to exhibit anti-tumor activities against different types of cancers. However, to our knowledge, no studies so far have investigated the effect of Soy B in human laryngeal carcinoma. This study therefore aimed to determine the effect
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common type of human malignancies of the urological system. Soyasapogenol B (Soy B), an ingredient of soybean, has been found to exert anti-proliferative activities in vitro in human breast cancer cells. Our current study aimed to evaluate the
Soyasaponins are bioactive compounds found in many legumes. Although crude soyasaponins have been shown to have anti-colon carcinogenic activity, there have been no structure-activity studies. In this study, therefore, purified soyasaponins and soyasapogenins were tested for their ability to
In recent years there has been an increasing interest in compounds present in foods that may prevent or slow the progression of chronic illnesses, such as cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and cancer. Saponins have been reported to have important time-dependent anti-cancer properties. We have
Legumes are a source of health-promoting macro- and micronutrients, but also contain numerous phytochemicals with useful biological activities, an example of which are saponins. Epidemiological studies suggest that saponins may play a role in protection from cancer and benefit human health by
A human study was conducted to evaluate soyasaponin bioavailability in humans. Eight healthy women ingested a single dose of concentrated soy extract containing 434 micromol of group B soyasaponins, the predominant form of soyasaponins in soybeans. Neither soyasaponins nor their metabolites were
