Example sentences for: phytoestrogens
How can you use “phytoestrogens” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In a companion paper, the impact of hormonal manipulation and dietary phytoestrogens' influence on VSM is examined and validates several aspects of the findings from the present study.
[ 38 ] and Brown and Setchell [ 36 ] determined the source and concentration of phytoestrogens in rodent diets.
Additionally, one of our laboratories has quantified phytoestrogen plasma levels in a variety of physiologic conditions validating the importance of soy-derived phytoestrogens via rodent chow diets [ 36 ] . Therefore not all diets have the same phytoestrogen levels, however, all diets, which have soy as their main protein source, contain phytoestrogens.
Our laboratory has previously reported the phytoestrogen levels in the diets used in this study and circulating plasma and brain phytoestrogen levels obtained in rats exposed to these diets [ 39 40 41 42 43 ] . Notably, we have shown that rats fed the Phyto-600 diet have phytoestrogen plasma levels similar to that of a human Asian population consuming high amounts of soy protein per day and the low levels of plasma phytoestrogens from the Phyto-free diet fed animals are reflective of a Western population where soy foods are rarely consumed [ 22 40 42 ] . Therefore, we have established an animal model that approaches the human population in circulating plasma phytoestrogen levels based upon consumption of these phytoestrogen (soy-rich vs. soy-free) diets.
Dietary phytoestrogens sex reversed VSM, as expressed in the radial-arm maze by enhancing spatial memory in females but inhibited this ability in males, this finding corresponds to research regarding increased dementia observed in aged men consuming high tofu levels [ 44 ] . However, while it is important to establish the influence of dietary phytoestrogens on brain function and behavior in animal models, the true significance in humans remains to be determined as it relates to the present findings.
