Tomatoes, as an agricultural product, represent important commodity worldwide and comprise a significant part of the human diet. They are one most versatile widely used fruits, being consumed in raw state for preparation wide range products. Tomatoes tomato products rich antioxidant compounds such carotenoids (particularly lycopene), ascorbic acid phenolic compounds. The regular consumption tomatoes has been correlated to reduction risk contracting various types cancer cardiovascular...
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a nonselective calcium ion channel highly expressed in the primary sensory neurons, functioning as polymodal sensor for exogenous and endogenous stimuli, has been implicated neuropathic pain respiratory disease. Herein, we describe optimization of potent, selective, orally bioavailable TRPA1 small molecule antagonists with strong vivo target engagement rodent models. Several lead molecules preclinical single- short-term repeat-dose toxicity...
Guaraná catechins are bioavailable and reduce oxidative stress in healthy individuals by direct antioxidant action increase of enzyme activity.
The objective of the study was to compare effect organic and conventional cultivation on antioxidant compound content activity Carmen tomato cultivar. Tomatoes were analyzed regarding ascorbic acid, phenolic compounds, lycopene activity. Organic tomatoes presented higher acid total phenolics (641.39 4466.66 mg/100 g EAG dry wt basis) than did (510.16 3477.50 basis, respectively). There no difference in concentrations between conventional. ether, alcohol aqueous extracts obtained from...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects processing stages yerba maté (Ilex paraguariensis) on moisture content leaves and efficiency aqueous extraction some bioactive substances. Samples were analyzed for caffeine, phenolic acids (caffeic acid, 5-caffeoilquinic acid) flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol myricetin) by HPLC equipped with a diode array detector. Processing widely influenced caffeine acid extract (p < 0.05), which related leaves. Caffeic present in 45% infusions from...
Proinflammatory biomarkers levels are increased among patients with cardiovascular disease, and it is known that both the presence of insulin resistance diet may influence those levels. However, these associations not well studied established disease. Our objective to compare inflammatory biomarker disease secondary prevention without resistance, evaluate if there any association between plasma fatty acid them. In this cross-sectional sub-study from BALANCE Program Trial, we collected data...
The Brazilian Food Supplement Law recently recognized that guarana (Paulliniacupana) contains bioactive substances, hence supporting its role as a functional food ingredient. health benefits of are associated, at least in part, to phenolic compounds. However, the best our knowledge, there is no literature addressing presence compounds fraction containing insoluble-bound and contribution terms alpha-glucosidase inhibition. concentration extracts released from required inhibit 50% (IC50)...
OBJECTIVES: To examine an association between pain severity and functional disability in older Mexican Americans. DESIGN: Cross‐sectional study (2005/06), a subsample of the Hispanic Established Population for Epidemiologic Study Elderly. SETTING: Community. PARTICIPANTS: One thousand thirteen American aged 74 to 100. MEASUREMENTS: Bilingual interviewers administered structured questionnaires assessed physical measures mobility frailty (exhaustion, weight loss, walking speed, grip strength,...
