We recently demonstrated that California table grapes and a methanol-extractable, polyphenol-rich fraction decreased adiposity, insulin resistance, or markers of inflammation in high-fat fed mice. Malvidin and peonidin glycosides were the 2 most abundant anthocyanins in the polyphenol-rich fraction.
Anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative activities of anthocyanidins and anthocyanin-rich black soybean seed coats were studied in HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells and carcinogen-treated F344 rats, respectively. Cyanidin and delphinidin significantly inhibited cell growth at concentrations of
BACKGROUND
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disorder of skin and joints for which conventional treatments that are effective in clearing the moderate-to-severe disease are limited due to long-term safety issues. This necessitates exploring the usefulness of botanical agents for treating
The interactive effects on anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation of lutein combined with each of the six common anthocyanidin glucosides were studied in both chemical and cellular systems. The combined phytochemicals showed an antagonism in the inhibition of lipid oxidation in a liposomal membrane,
Recent reports have demonstrated multiple benefits associated with the consumption of berry fruits, including a decreased vulnerability to oxidative stress, reduced ischemic brain damage, protection of neurons from stroke-induced damage and the reversal of age-related changes in brain and behaviour.
Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds that are widely present in food and Chinese medicine. The aim of the present study was to identify the flavonoids with anti-inflammatory effects in the airway; and to determine the role of anti-oxidant and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the
Consumption of diets high in fat and/or fructose content promotes tissue inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance, activating signals (e.g. NF-κB/JNK) that downregulate the insulin cascade. Current evidence supports the concept that select flavonoids can mitigate obesity and type 2
Red ginger (Zingiber officinale var. Rubra) has been prescribed as an analgesic for arthritis pain in Indonesian traditional medicine. The surface color of the rhizome is purple because of the anthocyanidins in its peel. We prepared 40% ethanolic extract from dried red ginger (red ginger extract
Lycopene was combined with the glucosides of each of the six common anthocyanidins at 3 different ratios to investigate their interactions on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and cellular uptake. The bioactivity interaction between lycopene and anthocyanins was studied in both chemical
Anthocyanins are polyphenolic ring-based flavonoids, and are widespread in fruits and vegetables of red-blue color. Epidemiological investigations and animal experiments have indicated that anthocyanins may contribute to cancer chemoprevention. The studies on the mechanism have been done recently at
The widespread consumption of diets rich in anthocyanin and catechin content prompted the evaluation of their in vitro inhibitory effects on cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes and on the proliferation of human cancer cell lines. Five anthocyanidins consisting of cyanidin (1), delphinidin (2), pelargonidin
Epidemiological studies suggest that nutritional antioxidants may reduce the incidence of neurodegenerative disorders and age-related cognitive decline. Specifically, protection against oxidative stress and inflammation has served as a rationale for promoting diets rich in vegetables and fruits. The
Skin cancer in humans represents about 30% of all new cancers and is by far the most common malignancy in the Caucasian population. Exposure to radiations especially ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation is the major cause for development of skin cancers along with other chemical or biological factors. The
BACKGROUND
Positive effects of pistachio nut consumption on plasma inflammatory biomarkers have been described; however, little is known about molecular events associated with these effects.
OBJECTIVE
We studied the anti-inflammatory activity of a hydrophilic extract from Sicilian Pistacia L. (HPE)
The anticancer activity of malvidin was studied in Dalton's lymphoma ascites (DLA)-induced solid and ascitic tumor mice models. Malvidin is a natural compound belonging to the family of O-methylated anthocyanidin and plays a predominant role in regulating both short- and long-term cellular
