Isoflavonoids also have been reported to have physiological activity in animal and human studies. Besides acting as an estro n mimic, it was reported that the isoflavones found in soybean seeds possess antihemolytic, antifungal, tumorsuppressing, and serum cholesterol-lowering effects. In addition, both epidemiological and dietary-intervention studies indicate that when isoflavones in soybean seeds and in subsequent protein products prepared from the seeds are part of the human dietary intake, those products provide many significant health benefits. - ... 

The isoflavones luteone (86) and wighteone (87) occur on the leaf surfaces of Lupinus species and appear to be preformed antifungal defenses both compounds are fungi-toxic to Helminthosporium carbonum (Harbome, 1986, 1991). 

Third, these flavonoids reveal anti-protozoal, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Additionally, some isoflavones were also known to have their insecticidal, antifungal and antibacterial activities [43].
