Synthesis of phytoestrogenic isoflavonoid disulfates. Steroids, 2004, Volume: 69, Issue:10 Di-O-sulfates of six phytoestrogenic isoflavonoids, daidzein (1), genistein (2), glycitein (3), and the reduced metabolites dihydrodaidzein (4), dihydrogenistein (5) and equol (6) were synthesized. These compounds are known or potential inhibitors of steroid sulfatase enzymes. The new compounds were characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry.

Genistein inhibits vitamin D hydroxylases CYP24 and CYP27B1 expression in prostate cells. The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology, 2003, Volume: 84, Issue:4 In human prostate cancer cells, the availability of the steroid hormone 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) for antimitotic action is determined through the activity of the two enzymes CYP24 and CYP27B1, viz. 25-hydroxyvitamin D-24-hydroxylase and 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1alpha-hydroxylase. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of [(3)H]25(OH)D(3) metabolism in human prostate cancer DU-145 cells revealed that genistein and other isoflavonoids, such as dihydrogenistein and daidzein, as well as the antiestrogenic compound ICI 182,780, inhibited Vitamin D-metabolizing enzyme activities. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) showed that only in case of genistein this was due to transcriptional inhibition of CYP24 and CYP27B1 gene expressions. In case of CYP27B1, reduction of gene activity involves histone deacetylation because genistein was inactive in the presence of the histone deactylase inhibitor trichostatin A. In contrast, under the same condition, CYP24 gene activity was largely suppressed. In summary, our results suggest that a combined effect of genistein and trichostatin A could increase the responsiveness of human prostate cancer cells to the antiproliferative action of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3).

Genistein inhibits vitamin D hydroxylases CYP24 and CYP27B1 expression in prostate cells.
