The effects of vegetable oils on human health depend their components. Therefore, profiles lipid nutrients and polyphenols were determined.To establish compare the fatty acid, tocopherol, phytosterol polyphenol Mediterranean oils: cosmetic dietary argan (AO; Morocco: Agadir, Berkane); olive (OO; Morocco, Spain, Tunisia); milk thistle seed (MTSO; Tunisia: Bizerte, Sousse, Zaghouane); nigella oil (NSO).The biochemical determined by gas chromatography-flame ionization, high performance liquid...

Nutritional choices, which include the source of dietary fatty acids (FA), have an important significant impact on coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to determine patients with CAD relationships between Trans (Trans FA) and different associated parameters such as inflammatory oxidative stress in addition Gensini score a vascular severity index. Fatty acid profiles were established by gas chromatography from 111 compared 120 age-matched control group. Lipid peroxidation biomarkers,...

Lipid peroxidation products, such as 7-ketocholesterol (7KC), may be increased in the body fluids and tissues of patients with neurodegenerative diseases trigger microglial dysfunction involved neurodegeneration. It is therefore important to identify synthetic natural molecules able impair toxic effects 7KC. We determined impact 7KC on murine BV-2 cells, especially its ability mitochondrial peroxisomal dysfunction, evaluated protective α- γ-tocopherol, Trolox, oleic acid (OA). Multiple...

The Mediterranean diet is associated with health benefits due to bioactive compounds such as polyphenols. biological activities of three polyphenols (quercetin (QCT), resveratrol (RSV), apigenin (API)) were evaluated in mouse neuronal N2a cells the presence 7-ketocholesterol (7KC), a major cholesterol oxidation product increased patients age-related diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders. In cells, 7KC (50 µM; 48 h) induces cytotoxic effects characterized by an induction cell death....

Abstract Background Frailty is a multidimensional syndrome that leads to an increase of age-related disorder several physiological systems, and cognitive abilities decline. The aim this study was evaluate the prevalence frailty among older persons in Belgium we examined factors associated with principal focus en cognitive, dietary status, inflammatory parameters. Methods A total 124 participants (90 women, 34 men; age: mean ± SD: 85.9 5.5 years) were studied, recruited from Geriatrics...

In Alzheimer's disease, lipid alterations point towards peroxisomal dysfunctions. Indeed, a cortical accumulation of saturated very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs: C22:0, C24:0, C26:0), substrates for β-oxidation, has been found in Alzheimer patients. This study was realized to investigate the effects VLCFAs at mitochondrial level since dysfunctions play crucial roles neurodegeneration. On human neuronal SK-NB-E cells treated with or C26:0 (0.1-20 μM; 48 h), an inhibition cell growth and...

Graphical abstract Abstract 7-Ketocholesterol (or 7-oxocholesterol) is an oxysterol essentially formed by cholesterol autoxidation. It often found at enhanced levels in the body fluids and/or target tissues of patients with age-related diseases (cardiovascular, neuronal, and ocular diseases) as well subjects concerned civilization (type 2 diabetes, bowel diseases, metabolic syndrome). The involvement increased 7-ketocholesterol pathophysiology these widely suspected. Indeed, elevated...
