The effect of dietary soybeans and their isoflavone content on the expression profiles of mRNAs in liver of rats
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Soyfoods have been drawn the interrest in the roles that reducing risk of cardiovascular disease. Among various components, isoflavones have been come to the attention as beneficial soy ingredients. To evaluate the effectiveness of isoflavone content in dietary soybean (Glycine max) on modulating lipid metabolism, hepatic gene expressions involved in lipid metabolism were analyzed in rats. An isoflavone-rich cultivar (Yukipirika) and a conventional cultivar (Fukuyutaka) were employed. A principal component analysis (PCA) of microarray data was used to summarize characteristics of the experimental groups. As a result, the characteristics of the diets were largely explained by the first principal component (PC1). Soybean content in the diets distinctly separated in PC1. In contrast, isoflavone content had little effect on the mRNA expression. The GeneChip data was normalized and summarized by using SuperNORM data service (Skylight Biotech Inc.). Significance of expressional change among groups was tested by 2-way ANOVA on the normalized CEL data, which was deposited in a tab-separated ASCII text format. Principal components were identified on the summarized gene data.
