Liver diseases, a leading cause of global mortality, necessitate effective dietary strategies. Fermented cereals, traditionally recognized for benefits in glucose regulation, lipid profiles, and antioxidant activity, hold potential for managing conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. However, their specific impact on liver health requires further investigation.

DC-SIGN (dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing non-integrin) is a C-type lectin receptor expressed on dendritic cells and M2 macrophages, playing a key role in immune regulation and pathogen recognition. Its ability to mediate anti-inflammatory effects by interacting with specific ligands triggers pathways that suppress pro-inflammatory responses and promote tissue repair, making it a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. DC-SIGN homologs in various animal species share structural similarities and perform comparable immune functions, offering valuable insights into its broader application across species.

Diffuse intimal thickening (DIT) is a pre-clinical stage of atherosclerosis characterized by thickened intima. The molecular basis of its susceptibility to atherogenesis is unknown, and mechanistic investigations cannot be performed in commonly used mouse models, in which DIT does not exist. Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are the predominant cell type that occupies the intima and media of DIT.

The global prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) necessitates the exploration of novel therapeutic approaches to mitigate its complex molecular pathogenesis. This review investigates the potential role of genistein, a prominent isoflavone derived from soybeans, in the management of T2DM. Recognized for its selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) activity, genistein exerts a multifaceted influence on key intracellular signaling pathways, which are crucial in regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, and insulin signaling.
