In order to develop a new model of diet research, blood was drawn from 12 adult volunteers for 3 wk on regular diets as controls, and for a subsequent 3 wk supplemented with 18.5 g of freeze-dried tofu (Koya tofu) every day. Triplicate aliquots of 0.06 mL each of whole blood were stimulated ex vivo with phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-P, heat aggregated human IgG (HAG), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), zymosan A, and anti-T cell receptor (TCR) monoclonal antibody to activate specific subsets of leukocytes, then the levels of various inflammatory cytokine mRNA were quantified by real time PCR. Koya tofu significantly (p<0.05) augmented the fold increase of PHA-induced tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF) 15, IL6, and IL8, HAG-induced TNFSF15 and IL8, LPS-induced IL6 and IL8, zymosan-induced TNFSF15, IL6 and IL8, and TCR-induced TNFSF2 in comparison to the regular diet. Such increase was due to the reduction of baseline mRNA expression, not the enhancement of mRNA induction after specific stimulations. Six (TNFSF15), 4 (IL6), and 3 (IL10) subjects showed significant reduction of baseline mRNA during the Koya tofu diet compared to that of the control diet. Despite large individual-to-individual and day-to-day variation of mRNA, the method employed in this study was sensitive enough to identify statistically significant results as a group as well as on an individual basis, which will be a foundation for tailored diet in the future. The results also indicated that Koya tofu had a power to alter mRNA expression in leukocytes, and TNFSF15, IL6, and IL10 would be biomarkers for soy.
