Metabolism
When ingested along the diet, genistin is readily converted to its
mice can cause the complete conversion.[2]
Biological importance
Estrogenic activity
Genistin, like genistein, is a
tumors to regress.[3]
Antiviral activity
Genistin and other isoflavones are demonstrated to be bioactive within the neonatal intestine and may reduce the severity of rotavirus infections; genistin alone shows inhibition of the viral infectivity by 40-60%.[4]
Bone metabolism
In vitro study have shown that both genistin and
fructooligosaccharides.[6] The amount of new bone produced by grafting genistin in collagen matrix was compared to the bone produced by collagen matrix alone in New Zealand white rabbits, and was observed that genistin caused significant increase in bone formation.[7]
