Lycopene-rich extract from red guava (Psidium guajava L.) displays cytotoxic effect against human breast adenocarcinoma cell line MCF-7 via an apoptotic-like pathway.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
This study investigated a lycopene-rich extract from red guava (LEG) for its chemical composition using spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, attenuated total reflectance-fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), and computational studies. ...

Prediction of CML contents in the Maillard reaction products for casein-monosaccharides model.

Food chemistry
Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to predict the processing parameters of the casein-glucose/galactose Maillard reaction (MR) for determining the level of N-(1-carboxymethyl)-l-lysine (CML), one of the typically harmful dietary advanced ...

Protective effect of Nelumbo nucifera extracts on beta amyloid protein induced apoptosis in PC12 cells, in vitro model of Alzheimer's disease.

Journal of food and drug analysis
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. β-Amyloid (Aβ) has been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of AD. Deposits of insoluble Aβ are found in the brains of patients with AD and are one of the pathologi...

Dysfunction of endothelial progenitor cells in hyperlipidemic rats involves the increase of NADPH oxidase derived reactive oxygen species production.

Canadian journal of physiology and pharmacology
NADPH oxidase (NOX) is a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body and it plays a key role in mediation of oxidative injury in the cardiovascular system. The purposes of this study are to evaluate the status of NOX in endothelial prog...

Transcriptomic alterations in Sitophilus zeamais in response to allyl isothiocyanate fumigation.

Pesticide biochemistry and physiology
To study the fumigation mechanisms of Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) a promising biorational alternative to present fumigants (phosphine and methyl bromide), and provide theoretical basis for its further development in the control of stored grain pests,...

Anethole improves the in vitro development of isolated caprine secondary follicles.

Theriogenology
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of three concentrations of anethole (30, 300, and 2000 μg/mL) on survival, antrum formation, follicular diameter, and oocyte maturation in the caprine species. The study also evaluated the effects o...

Cerium dioxide nanoparticles did not alter the functional and morphologic characteristics of ram sperm during short-term exposure.

Theriogenology
The aim of the study was to investigate the interaction and the short-term effects of increasing doses of cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) on ram spermatozoa, stored at 4 °C for up to 24 hours, on the main functional and kinematic parameters. ...
