"Shangshida NO.5" is a giant embryo mutant resulting from giant embryo gene (GE) dysfunction in "Chao2-10" rice. Here, we compared the antihypertensive effects of "Chao2-10" brown rice (C2-10), "Shangshida NO.5" brown rice (GER), and pre-germinated
The yellow (YP) and white (WP) sections of giant swamp taro (GST) contain 40.0 g/kg and 51.5 g/kg (dry wt) respectively of pure mucilage made up of D-glucose (44.95-78.85 %), D-galactose (8.70-25.35 %), D-mannose (3.20-10.45 %), D-arabinose (2.45-5.20 %) and small amounts of glucuronic acid and
Giant unilamellar vesicles of soy phosphatidylcholine are found to undergo budding when sensitized with chlorophyll a ([phosphatidylcholine] : [chlorophyll a] = 1500 : 1) under light irradiation (400-440 nm, 16 mW mm(-2)). 'Entropy' as a dimensionless image heterogeneity measurement is found to
The objectives of the present study were to determine the effect of supplementary vitamin-E (200, 400 and 600 mg/kg feed) on lipid peroxidation (LPX) and antioxidant defence system in gills and hepatopancreas of the freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Results indicated that vitamin-E
Oxidative glutamate toxicity in the neuronal cell line HT22 is a model for neuronal cell death by oxidative stress. In this model, extracellular glutamate blocks cystine uptake via the glutamate/cystine antiporter system x(c)(), eventually leading to depletion of the antioxidant glutathione and cell
We have attempted to evaluate, on the basis of optical microscopy for a single giant unilamellar vesicle (GUV), the potency of antioxidants in protecting GUV membranes from oxidative destruction. Photosensitized membrane budding of GUVs prepared from soybean phosphatidylcholine with chlorophyll a
Oxidative stress is detrimental to spermatozoa and is acknowledged to be a common pathology in infertile men. Antioxidant supplements, therefore, represent a logical therapeutic approach, although the recent Cochrane review recommends cautious interpretation of publications and findings to date.
A 72-year-old fisherman who was positive for the HCV antibody developed an annular, erythematous, infiltrated lesions on sun-exposed areas. The lesions were diagnosed as annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma both clinically and histologically. Topical corticosteroid and cryotherapy with liquid
Free radicals are responsible for several diseases like cancer, atherosclerosis, gastric ulcers, and several others. Studies have shown that mushrooms possess antioxidant activity and Macrocybe gigantea was recently added to the list of mushrooms under cultivation in India. The methanolic extracts
Acid-solubilized collagen (ASC) and pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) were obtained from Nibea japonica swim bladders. The denaturation temperature (Td) of ASC and PSC was approximately 33.8 °C. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Fourier transform infrared
In the present communication we studied the involvement of reactive oxygen species and alteration in antioxidant defence status during larval development and metamorphosis of giant prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Overall results indicate that there was a decline in endogenous lipid peroxidation
Low molecular weight peptides obtained from ultrafiltration (UF) of giant squid (Dosidicus gigas) muscle protein were studied for their antioxidative effects in different in vitro oxidative systems. The most potent two peptides, Asn-Ala-Asp-Phe-Gly-Leu-Asn-Gly-Leu-Glu-Gly-Leu-Ala (1307 Da) and
Estivation is an adaptive response to environments characterized by elevated temperatures and desiccative stress, as may occur during summer dry seasons. Similar to diapause and hibernation, it is characterized by low levels of activity, a drastically suppressed metabolic rate and enhanced stress
Duckweeds are widely recognized for the heavy metal phytoremediation. However, the intraspecific variations in biological responses of duckweeds to heavy metal remain largely unknown. Here, the toxicity and phytoaccumulation of cadmium (Cd) were synchronously evaluated in 30 accessions of giant
Chinese giant salamander Andrias davidianus has strong tolerance to starvation. Fasting triggers a complex array of adaptive metabolic responses, a process in which the liver plays a central role. Here, a high-throughput proteomic analysis was carried out on liver samples obtained from adult
