In the present study we have evaluated the hepatoprotective efficacy of soy isoflavones (SIF), against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced oxidative damage and early tumor response in male Wistar rats. Methods: Single treatment of CCl4 (1:1 v/v in corn oil was administered orally at dose of 1ml kg-1 body weight) induced oxidative stress and enhanced early tumor markers. Results: CCl4 treatment resulted in marked reduction of hepatic glutathione content and activities of hepatic anti-oxidant enzymes, viz., glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT), glucose-6- phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and phase-II metabolising enzymes such as glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and quinone reductase (QR) significantly as compared to control group (p
