2 Soy Isoflavones Modulated Antioxidant Defense Systems and Decreased Lipid Peroxidation in Rats and Humans by Chung-Yen Chen Chair: Raga M. Bakhit Human Nutrition, Foods & Exercise ABSTRACT Isoflavones have antioxidant activities in vivo, however, their antioxidative potential against oxidative stress initiated by exercise was not explored. The first study investigated the effect of high-genistin isoflavone (HGI) supplementation on erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes and tissues thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS) in acutely exercised oneyear old rats. All tissue genistein concentrations increased after exercise. Ingestion of HGI seemingly enhanced running time to exhaustion, and maintained glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT) activities decreased due to exercise. The second study investigated the dose effect of HGI supplementation. Genistein concentrations were significantly higher (P<0.05) in tissues of rats fed the 1045 PPM HGI diet than in rats fed 522 or 209 PPM HGI diets and increased the glutathione (GSH)/total glutathione (TGSH) ratio (P<0.03). Reductions of the in vivo MDA concentrations (P<0.05) were observed only in the plasma of rats fed 522 and 1045 PPM HGI diets compared to those fed 0 PPM (-1.08, -0.82, and 0.03 µm, respectively). Therefore, isoflavones at PPM HGI diet have antioxidative effects in rats. The last two studies investigated the effect of isoflavone supplementation on the modulation of erythrocyte antioxidant enzyme activities, glutathione homeostasis, and other oxidative biomolecules in healthy young men undergoing 80%VO 2 pk exercise. In Study 3 exercise at 80%VO 2 pk increased oxidative stress which was best demonstrated by increased ii
3 superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity (16.5%), GSH/TGSH ratio, in vivo MDA (12.6%), plasma uric acid (4.9%) and ferric reducing/antioxidant ability (FRAP) ( 7.8%). Therefore, 30 minutes 80% VO 2 pk exercise induced oxidative stress in moderately active college men. In study 4, four-week HGI supplementation produced plasma genistein and daidzein concentrations of 499 and 415 ng/ml, which were significantly increased to 633 and 539 ng/ml by exercise (P=0.04 and P=0.05). Isoflavones significantly decreased in vivo preexercise plasma MDA (P<0.05), increased pre-exercise blood TGSH (P=0.01) and preexercise erythrocyte SOD activity (P=0.0006), and maintained the decreased activities of GPx due to exercise at pre-exercise levels. Results demonstrated that isoflavones had antioxidant activity in vivo under normal physiological conditions in healthy young men. They also maintaining GPx activity which was decreased due to exercise, however, isoflavones may not overcome all oxidative stress initiated by intense exercise. iii

5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It has been five years since I followed my major advisor Dr. Raga M. Bakhit to conduct researches. There is no word which can express numerous thanks of mine to her. Her guidance and tremendous help have been changing my whole life. I would like to thank Dr. Allan Goldfarb for his unselfishness in sharing his knowledge with me. Even though he did not know me at all when we met at the first time, he patiently answered my questions. Without Dr. Golde Holtzman s instructions, I would have not completed my dissertation. Thank you for giving me some of your time whenever I sought your assistance to resolve the most complicated portion of dissertation, statistical analyses. To Dr. William Barbeau, thank you for your support and for your confidence and trust in me. Your words let me feel that I will have a bright future. To Dr. Janet Rankin, thank you for your time to share knowledge with me. Without your guidance and help, my research would not cross over Exercise Science field. I also want to thank Dr. Michael Houston. Without his unlimited support, I would not have completed my degree smoothly. I also wish to acknowledge Dr. Kathy Reynolds, Dr. David Moore, Janet Rinehart, Carolyn Harris, and David Gemmel. Without their unselfish and endless help, conducting experiments would be unachievable missions. I also like to express my thanks to all of my friends for their support, Vanessa, Sandy, Daly, Janet, and Bob, and all staffs in HNFE department. My final thanks go to my lovely girlfriend. Without her beside me, I do not know how I can pass all of these. Good luck to her and me! v
