1 The present study was designed to investigate the effects of isoflavone genistein exposure at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 50 muM on the LDL receptor and HMG-CoA reductase gene expression in the estrogen receptor positive DLD-1 human colon cancer cell line. Genistein 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
2 Genistein induced an increase of LDL receptor gene expression and later decrease of HMG-CoA reductase mRNA expression in DLD-1 cells. Genistein 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
3 These findings provide direct evidence on the role of genistein in regulating LDL receptor and HMG-CoA reductase gene expression in colon cancer. Genistein 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
