DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Consumption of isoflavone-rich soy has been suggested to lower prostate cancer risk. The soy components thought to be responsible for this effect are the isoflavones. As a result, soy isoflavones are currently being investigated in epidemiological and clinical studies for their possible roles in prostate cancer prevention. It is extremely important in these studies to have an accurate estimate of isoflavone exposure in individuals. Given the inadequacy of dietary methodologies, biological fluids are considered more reliable indicators of isoflavone exposure. In designing these studies, researchers have generally assumed that plasma and 24- hr urine isoflavone concentrations accurately reflect prostate tissue exposure. However at this time, no information is available on the validity of this assumption. Thus, the main objective of this application is to evaluate the reliability of plasma and urinary isoflavone levels by comparing blood and urine concentrations to more direct measurements of prostate exposure. To accomplish this, the proposed study will compare isoflavone levels in plasma and 24-hr urine with those in expressed prostatic secretion (EPS), a widely accepted marker of prostatic tissue exposure. In addition, isoflavone levels in semen and post-massage urine will be determined and compared with EPS, in order to determine whether these fluids are more accurate than blood or urine and more easily obtainable than EPS in clinical or epidemiological studies. The specific aims of this project are to assess concentrations of isoflavones (genistein, daidzein, equol, ODMA, glycitein and dihydrodaidzein) in blood, 24-hr urine, semen, post-massage urine and EPS after soy isoflavone consumption. A randomized double-blind parallel arm study will be performed in 50 young men assigned to receive a tablet containing either 30 or 60 mg of isoflavones for a period of four days. Before and after the treatment period phytoestrogen concentrations 24-hr urine, plasma, EPS, post-massage urine and semen will be measured. Comparing 24-hr urine, plasma, post-massage urine and semen concentrations with those in EPS will enable us to assess the validity of blood, urine, and semen as predictors of prostate tissue phytoestrogen exposure. Comparing the two treatment groups will allow us to assess dose-dependant effects on phytoestrogen distribution. Although EPS is easier to obtain than prostate tissue,,the procedure is uncomfortable and requires trained personnel. If semen orposf-massage urine concentrations correlate well with EPS, these collections would be more practical for estimating tissue exposure in epidemiological and intervention studies. If blood and 24-hr urine concentrations correlate well with EPS, their validity will be confirmed and we will show that collection of the other fluids is unnecessary. The results of this study will help determine which biological fluid best reflects prostate exposure to isoflavones and may help improve the design of future epidemiological and intervention studies on isoflavones and prostate cancer risk reduction.

描述（由申请人提供）：食用富含维生素E的大豆被认为可以降低前列腺癌的风险。大豆成分被认为是负责这种影响是大豆酮。因此，目前正在流行病学和临床研究中调查大豆异黄酮在预防前列腺癌中的可能作用。在这些研究中，准确估计个人的接触量极为重要。鉴于饮食方法的不足，生物液体被认为是更可靠的接触汞的指标。在设计这些研究时，研究人员通常假设血浆和24小时尿液中的前列腺素浓度准确地反映了前列腺组织的暴露。然而，目前没有关于这一假设有效性的信息。因此，本申请的主要目的是通过将血液和尿液浓度与前列腺暴露的更直接测量值进行比较来评价血浆和尿液中前列腺素水平的可靠性。为了实现这一点，拟议的研究将比较血浆和24小时尿液中的前列腺素水平与前列腺液（EPS）中的前列腺素水平，EPS是一种广泛接受的前列腺组织暴露标志物。此外，还将测定精液和按摩后尿液中的肌酐水平，并与EPS进行比较，以确定这些液体是否比血液或尿液更准确，以及在临床或流行病学研究中是否比EPS更容易获得。该项目的具体目标是评估血液、24小时尿液、精液、按摩后尿液和食用大豆油后EPS中的大豆酮（染料木黄酮、大豆苷元、雌马酚、ODMA、黄豆黄素和二氢大豆苷元）浓度。将在50名年轻男性中进行一项随机双盲平行组研究，这些男性被分配接受含有30或60 mg阿糖胞苷酮的片剂，为期4天。在治疗期间之前和之后，将测量24小时尿液、血浆、EPS、按摩后尿液和精液的植物雌激素浓度。比较24小时尿液、血浆、按摩后尿液和精液浓度与EPS中的浓度，将使我们能够评估血液、尿液和精液作为前列腺组织植物雌激素暴露的预测因子的有效性。比较两个治疗组将使我们能够评估植物雌激素分布的剂量依赖性效应。虽然EPS比前列腺组织更容易获得，但该手术不舒服并且需要训练有素的人员。如果精液或按摩后尿液浓度与EPS相关性良好，则这些收集对于流行病学和干预研究中估计组织暴露量将更加实用。如果血液和24小时尿液浓度与EPS相关性良好，则其有效性将得到证实，我们将证明不需要收集其他液体。这项研究的结果将有助于确定哪种生物液体最能反映前列腺暴露于前列腺酮，并可能有助于改善未来关于前列腺酮和前列腺癌风险降低的流行病学和干预研究的设计。
