Avocatin B, an avocado-derived compound mixture, was demonstrated recently to possess potent anticancer activity by selectively targeting and eliminating leukemia stem cells. Avocatin B is a mixture of avocadene and avocadyne, two 17-carbon polyhydroxylated fatty alcohols (PFAs), first discovered in
Avocado (Persea americana) seeds have been used traditionally for a number of health-related indications. Because of its high polyphenol content, we investigated the potential antioxidant and anticancer effects of a colored avocado seed extract (CASE). CASE exhibited an oxygen radical
The aim of this study is to estimate the nutritive values, metabolites of Hass and Reed Avocado cultivars and evaluate their antimicrobial and anticancer activities. Hass was rich in water soluble vitamins, iron and calcium while, Reed contains more fat soluble vitamins. Benzaldehyde and butyl
The anti-cancer drug Flutamide (FLUT) is widely used and is of great environmental concern. The solar photo-Fenton (SPF) process can be an effective treatment for the removal of this type of micropollutant. The use of a single addition of 5 mg L-1 of Fe2+ and 50 mg
Βeta-sitosterol (β-SITO), a phytosterol present in pomegranate, peanut, corn oil, almond, and avocado, has been recognized to offer health benefits and potential clinical uses. β-SITO is orally bioavailable and, as a constituent of edible natural products, is considered to have no undesired side
The role of two major factors were analyzed in the prevention of experimentally-induced cancers: a) vaccination of animals with polyclonal IgG generated against the soluble p53 antigen and b) feeding of animals with diets rich with dietary fibers or fat. a) In vaccination, a few attempts have been
Most patients with gastrointestinal cancers refer to the health centers at advanced stages of the disease and conventional treatments are not significantly effective for these patients. Therefore, using modern therapeutic approaches with lower toxicity bring higher chance for successful treatment
Although the avocado is known as a rich source of monounsaturated fatty acids, there has been far less attention given to its content of other bioactive substances including carotenoids, which might contribute to cancer preventive properties similar to those attributed to other fruits and
Avocado (Persea americana) fruits are consumed as part of the human diet and extracts have shown growth inhibitory effects in various types of human cancer cells, although the effectiveness of individual components and their underlying mechanism are poorly understood. Using activity-guided
Photo-luminescent carbon dots (CD) have become promising nanomaterials and their synthesis from natural products has attracted attention by the possibility of making the most of affordable, sustainable and, readily-available carbon sources. Here, we report on the synthesis, characterization and
A total of 48 (60 test samples) species of plants commonly eaten in Japan were randomly collected and their methanol extracts were tested for in vitro nitric oxide (NO) generation inhibitory activities in a murine macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7, stimulated with both lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 100
Epithelial xanthine oxidase (XOD) is one of the major enzymes responsible for superoxide (O(2)(-)) generation, which is involved in oxidative stress. However, there are few known reports of a convenient bioassay to detect cellular XOD activity. We tested several cell lines, and found that AS52, from
Persea declinata (Bl.) Kosterm is a member of the Lauraceae family, widely distributed in Southeast Asia. It is from the same genus with avocado (Persea americana Mill), which is widely consumed as food and for medicinal purposes. In the present study, we examined the anticancer properties of Persea
We studied the effects of different dietary fats on experimental rat mammary lumorigenesis induced by 9,10-dimethyl-1, 2-benzanthracene (DMBA). Rats were randomly placed into four groups fed different diets: a chow diet, and high-fat (15%) diets derived from avocado, soybean or olive oils. The rats
The role of dietary factors in prevention of chemically-induced cancer was reviewed on two models: i) the role of high fiber diets in prevention of colon cancer and ii) the role of high fat diets in prevention of mammary gland cancer, i) Experiments in colon cancer showed that 20% cellulose content
