The aim of this study is the analysis of the in vitro digestion of corn oil, and of the effect of its enrichment with three levels of gamma- and alpha-tocopherol, by using, for the first time, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and a solid phase
The balance between the vitamin E (tocochromanols) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) contents mainly determines the susceptibility to lipid peroxidation and the storage stability of corn oil. In 1997, field experiments were conducted at two different locations to evaluate a collection of 30 corn
In this study, we investigated a change in the excretory content of 2,7,8-trimethyl-2(2'-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (gamma-CEHC), a gamma-tocopherol (gamma-Toc) metabolite, in rat urine and bile by using a new high-performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD) method. In
The metabolism of gamma-tocotrienol (gamma-TE) and gamma-tocopherol (gamma-T) was investigated in human A549 cells and in rats. Similar to gamma-T, A549 cells metabolized gamma-TE to sulfated 9'-, 11'-, and 13'-carboxychromanol and their unconjugated counterparts. After 72-h incubation with the
Little is known of how the fat components of diets influence the absorption and metabolism of vitamin K and the possible consequences to the synthesis of vitamin K-dependent (VKD) proteins in different target organs. We have evaluated the effects of two diets on circulating phylloquinone (K1) and
BACKGROUND
Gamma-tocopherol has unique properties that may be beneficial in sustaining optimal human health, but hepatic vitamin E metabolism enhances gamma-tocopherol turnover.
OBJECTIVE
Our aim was to determine the extent to which dietary sesame lignans alter human alpha- and gamma-tocopherol
Compared to healthy subjects, individuals with allergic airway disease (e.g., asthma, allergic rhinitis) have enhanced inflammatory responses to inhaled ozone. We created a rodent model of ozone-enhanced allergic nasal responses in Brown Norway rats to test the therapeutic effects of the dietary
Growing female rats were fed diets containing either corn oil (CO) or cottonseed oil (CSO) to determine if the previously reported lowering effect of CSO versus CO on serum total cholesterol (TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was sex specific and to compare the effect of these two
This review of corn oil provides a scientific assessment of the current knowledge of its contribution to the American diet. Refined corn oil is composed of 99% triacylglycerols with polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) 59%, monounsaturated fatty acid 24%, and saturated fatty acid (SFA) 13%. The PUFA is
BACKGROUND
Plant fats and oils are major sources of mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as vitamin E, the major fat-soluble antioxidants in human nutrition. Dietary antioxidants are expected to reduce cancer risk by minimizing DNA damage.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the effects of
BACKGROUND
The effects of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) rich diets compared to those that are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) as well as the effects of an intake of single oils compared to oil mixtures are controversially discussed and results are contradictory.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate
The vitamin E family includes tocopherols and tocotrienols, which are essential lipid-soluble antioxidants necessary for human and livestock health. The seeds of many plant species, including maize, have high gamma (γ)-tocopherol but low alpha (α)-tocopherol contents; however, α-tocopherol is the
Hyperglycemia-induced hepatic damage has been recognized as one of the major cause of complications in diabetes. Hepatic complications are associated with inflammation and oxidative stress in diabetes. In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that gamma-tocopherol (GT) BACKGROUND
The daily diet is usually comprised of a varying antioxidant and fatty acid content acquired from plant oils. The present study was performed to evaluate the antioxidative effects of a plant oil mixture rich in alpha-tocopherol (olive/sunflower oil) in comparison with a single
Specialty maize genotypes viz. QPM (quality protein maize), Baby corn, Popcorn and Sweet corn, which are usually consumed in whole forms can be good supplements of phenolic antioxidants. Botanical fractions of these maize genotypes were analyzed to explore the distribution of free and bound
