肠道微生物代谢产物雌马酚的生成及其主要影响因素

Equol:A metabolite of soy isoflavones by intestinal microflora—A review

摘要:

摘要:雌马酚是大豆苷原的微生物代谢产物，被认为是大豆异黄酮发挥生理作用的关键，但仅有33%－50%的人群能够产生雌马酚。最新研究表明氢气在雌马酚生成过程中起着非常重要的作用。目前此类研究尚处于起步阶段，本文总结了以往的研究结果，对雌马酚的生成、生物学作用及影响雌马酚生成的因素、氢气与雌马酚之间的关系作了较为详细的介绍。

Abstract:Equol，a microbial metabolite of daidzein，has been hypothesized as clue to the effectiveness of soy and its isoflavones but only 33%－50% of human population can excrete equol．Recently studies indicated that hydrogen gas playsan important role in equol formation． However，researches focus on this area are just started．In this paper，the corresponding research results of previous studies have been reviewed，including the underlying mechanism of equol formation and bioavailability，factors influencing equol production and the role of hydrogen gas on microbial equol formation.
