In Vitro

Genistein inhibits serum-stimulated growth of MCF-7 and T47D ER+ cells with IC50 values of 7.6 and 8.7 μg/mL by dye exclusion, respectively, and 8.7 and 10.6 μg/mL by [3H]thymidmne incorporation, respectively. These values are similar to the IC50 values of 9.4 and 7 μg/mL for MCF-7 and T47D ER+ cells, respectively, obtained with the MTT assay. Additionally, Genistein at concentrations up to 20 μg/mL does not alter MTT mitochondrial reduction when compared to control cells in an 8 h incubation period. Furthermore, neither biochanin A or daidzein are found to interfere with the MTT assay at IC50 concentrations. Therefore, the MTT assay is valid for determining growth inhibition by Genistein at concentrations under 20 μg/mL in the systems studied[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Bisphenol A (BPA) treatment alone and combined with Genistein had no significant effect on the protein expression of LC3II and PPARα in liver of STD- or HFD-fed rats (P>0.05; P>0.05). Significant decreasing of the protein expression of PPARγ in liver is observed when Genistein is added to rats, compared to either HFD group or HFD-BPA group[2].

Cell Assay
[1]

The IC50 values for Genistein are determined by the MTT assay. Briefly, the MTT assay is a colorimetric assay that is based on the ability of living but not dead cells to reduce a tetrazolium-based compound to a blue formazan product. The formazan crystals are solubilized in DMSO, and the absorbance is measured at 540 nm. The absorbance at 540 nm is proportional to the number of viable cells. The lC50 values obtained with the MTT assay are compared with the lC50 values obtained by counting viable cells using trypan blue dye exclusion and by tritiated thymidine incorporation into DNA[1].

Animal Administration
[2][3]

Mice[2]
Balb/c male mice are used. Genistein is administered as follows: On days 1-30, Genistein once daily, interaperitoneally injecting. Morphine plus Genistein is administered as follows: On days 1-30, Genistein once daily plus morphine, interaperitoneally injecting (17, 18). The same volume of saline is administered. Mice are randomly divided into 8 groups (n=6). 1) Normal saline group (1 mL DW/daily); 2) Morphine treated group; 3) Genistein 1 mg/kg treated group; 4) Genistein 2 mg/kg treated group 5) Genistein 4 mg/kg treated group; 6) Morphine plus Genistein 1 mg/kg treated group; 7) Morphine plus Genistein 2 mg/kg treated group; 8) Morphine plus Genistein 4 mg/kg treated group.
Rats[3]
Male 8-week-old Wistar rats (150-180g) are used. After one week acclimation, all rats are randomly divided into 8 groups with 10 rats per group and treated for 35 weeks as follows: (1) STD group is fed with rodent standard chow diet (STD); (2) STD-BPA group is fed with STD and administered with BPA (50 μg/kg/day); (3) STD-(BPA+G) group is fed with STD and administered with BPA (50 μg/kg/day) plus Genistein (10 mg/kg/day); (4) STD-G group is fed with STD and administered with Genistein (10 mg/kg/day); (5) HFD group received high-fat diet (HFD); (6) HFD-BPA group is fed with HFD and administered with BPA (50 μg/kg/day); (7) STD-(BPA+G) group is fed with HFD and administered with BPA (50 μg/kg/day) plus Genistein (10 mg/kg/day); (8) HFD-G group is fed with HFD and administrated with Genistein (10 mg/kg/day). All the male genitors are treated for 35 weeks consecutively. The details of BPA (50 μg/kg/day) and Genistein (10 mg/kg/day) treatment methods have been described previously: BPA is dissolved in corn oil and diluted with three stock solutions (20, 40, 80, and 120 μg/mL).

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
