Scope Dietary supplementation with polyphenol‐rich propolis can protect against experimentally induced colitis. We examined whether different polyphenol compositions of Chinese (CP) and Brazilian (BP) influence their ability to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)‐induced colitis in rats. Methods results HPLC‐DAD/Q‐TOF‐MS analysis confirmed that CP BP were dissimilar. Rats given or by gavage (300 mg kg −1 body weight) throughout the study, starting 1 week prior DSS treatment for followed 3 d without...
Chinese propolis has been reported to possess various biological activities such as antitumor. In present study, anticancer activity of ethanol extract (EECP) at 25, 50, 100, and 200 μ g/mL was explored by testing the cytotoxicity in MCF-7 (human breast cancer ER(+)) MDA-MB-231 ER(-)) cells. EECP revealed a dose- time-dependent cytotoxic effect. Furthermore, annexin A7 (ANXA7), p53, nuclear factor- κ B p65 (NF- p65), reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, mitochondrial membrane potential were...
Honeys produced from medicinal plants hold great promise for human health. Herein, we determined the chemical composition and gastrointestinal protective effects of a novel monofloral honey Prunella vulgaris (PVH). The physicochemical parameters (moisture, sugars, pH, protein content, diastase activity, hydroxymethylfurfural) PVH samples met criteria specified in European Union regulations Chinese National Standards. Fifteen phenolic compounds were identified quantified via high-performance...
This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of genistein or puerarin on chronic alcohol-induced liver injury in vivo and explore underlying mechanisms hepatoprotective effects. Mice were administered (0.3 mmol kg(-1) body weight) gastrically infused with 50% alcohol once per day for 5 weeks. Levels serum transaminases, hepatic lipids, antioxidant capacities, inflammation, apoptosis, histopathological sections analyzed. Results showed that exhibited similar effects ameliorating...
Our previous reports suggested that dietary supplementation with lysine influenced intestinal absorption and metabolism of amino acids. In this study, we further investigated the effect restriction (30%) on feed intake also tested hypothesis gut microbiome contributed to potential mechanism restriction-mediated feeding behavior. Here, profiled microbial communities by sequencing 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) genes from samples as well growth performance, serum hormones, transport in...
Propolis has abundant polyphenolic constituents and is used widely as a health/functional food. Here, we investigated the effects of polyphenol-rich propolis extracts (PPE) on intestinal barrier function in human epithelial Caco-2 cells, well rats. In PPE increased transepithelial electrical resistance decreased lucifer yellow flux. PPE-treated cells showed expression tight junction (TJ) loci occludin zona occludens (ZO)-1. Confocal microscopy organized expressions proteins related to TJ...
Microplastics (MPs), in the form of fragments and fibers, were recently found honey samples collected Ecuador as well bees from Denmark China. However, little is known about how MPs impact bee health. To fill this knowledge gap, we investigated potential toxicity irregularly shaped polystyrene (PS)-MP on In first experiment its kind with bees, chronically exposed a well-established gut microbiome to small (27 ± 17 µm) or large (93 25 PS-MP at varying concentrations (1, 10, 100 µg mL−1) for...
Apple pomace (AP) is a highly prevalent waste product worldwide in the fruit processing sector. This study compared chemical profile, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities of crude (CE) an extract purified using XAD-7 resin (PE). The purification process increased total phenolic content, flavonoids, tannins by 3.35, 40.31, 8.87-fold, respectively. main compounds identified PE were phlorizin (20.54 mg/g), chlorogenic acid (10.01 hyperoside (2.77 mg/g). No difference was found between...
