Features: Estrogen-like activity
Genistein is a naturally occurring isoflavone predominantly found in soy products.
-soy isoflavone

Anticancer effects through several mechanisms:
-Modulation of Hormone Activity: can bind to estrogen receptors(hormone-dependent cancers like breast and prostate cancer).
-Inhibition of Cell Proliferation:- -inducing cell cycle arrest.
-Induction of Apoptosis:- by influencing pro- and anti-apoptotic regulators.
-Anti-inflammatory and Antioxidant Effects:-antioxidant properties help to neutralize ROS
-Anti-angiogenic Activity:may also inhibit tumor angiogenesis

Key Cellular Signaling Pathways Involved
-Estrogen Receptor Signaling: interacting with estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ)
-PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway:inhibits this pro-survival pathway, leading to reduced cell growth
-MAPK/ERK Pathway: can contribute to cell cycle arrest.
-NF-κB Pathway:may downregulate NF-κB, supporting a reduction in tumor-promoting inflammation.
-Wnt/β-catenin Pathway: involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and oncogenic transformation.

Dosages often ranging from approximately 40 mg to 100 mg per day for potential therapeutic effects. Genistein has limited bioavailability when ingested as part of the diet. Efforts to enhance its absorption include the use of specific formulations, such as those that combine genistein with other compounds or utilize novel delivery systems.
