These plant chemicals display estrogen-like activity because of their structural similarity to human estrogens and exhibit high affinity binding for the estrogen receptor beta. Few, if any, studies have been made on the impact of these phytoestrogens on the immune system. The aims of this study, therefore, are twofold. The first goal is to verify the effects of phytoestrogens on the modulation of the cell proliferation and release of inflammatory mediators in macrophages and glomerular mesangial cell. The role of estrogen receptor in these responses is also investigated. Second, we try to investigate the possible molecular mechanism(s) involving in the effect of phytoestrogens on the macrophages and glomerular mesangial cell. In this year’s works, we found that low concentration range (3-100 nM) of phytoestrogens (-sitosterol, resveratrol and genistein) were capable of increasing cell proliferation and inducing the cyclooxygenase-2 protein and mRNA expression in macrophage and glomerular mesangial cell line, which could be partially inhibited by selective estrogen receptor antagonist ICI182780. The expression of COX-1 protein did not affected by these phytoestrogens. These results imply that there are some influences by phytoestrogens in immune system. |
