Pectinase is a well-known enzyme used in the food processing industry to produce fruit juice and concentrate. This study evaluated the anticancer and antiangiogenesis activities of pectinase-treated Prunus mume fruit concentrate (PC) and its phenolic components. PC treatment (250 to 1,000 µg/mL)
An apigalacturonan (AGA)-rich polysaccharide, ZCMP, was isolated from the sea grass Zostera caespitosa Miki. The depolymerized fragments derived from ZCMP were obtained by either acidic degradation or pectinase degradation, and their structures were characterized by electrospray ionization
Enhancement of human NK cytotoxicity in the presence of fresh Viscum album extract and some commercial V. album extracts Iscador correlated strictly with an increased formation of lytic effector cell/K562 tumor cell conjugates in the single-cell assay. Both activities were completely destroyed by
Marine fungi, one of the major decomposers of marine environment, is found to produce potential enzymes and novel biomolecules. The present study explored bioprospecting potentials such as antimicrobial, anticancer and enzymatic activities of marine sediment-derived fungi isolated from continental
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a source of dietary soluble (SF) and insoluble fiber (IF) without or with exogenous carbohydrases (xylanase, β-glucanase, and pectinase) on diarrhea incidence, selected immune responses, and growth performance in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
In this study, an acidic polysaccharide from Codonopsis pilosula Nannf. var. modesta (Nannf.) L. T. Shen (WCP-I) and its main fragment, WCP-Ia, obtained after pectinase digestion, were structurally elucidated and found to consist of a rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I) region containing both
The demonstration of a bacterial cause of some plant diseases has been claimed few years after it was commonly recognized that bacteria were able to cause diseases of human and animal. Nevertheless, some sharp controversies took place, between German and American specialists (1897-1901), before the
Recent studies have pointed to a reduction in the incidence of some cancers, diabetes, and neuro-degenerative diseases as a result of human health benefits from flavanones. Currently, flavanones are obtained by chemical synthesis or extraction from plants, and these processes are only produced in
BACKGROUND
Sutherlandia frutescens (syn. Lessertia frutescens) is an indigenous plant in Southern Africa and has been extensively studied from the ethnobotanical point of view. Amongst the various traditional uses, several illnesses involving the immune system have been reported. Due to some of the
We enzymatically digested green tea residue with Driselase, a crude preparation containing cellulase, pectinase and proteases, in order to examine the potential usefulness of the residue. A fraction of the digest soluble in 70% ethanol was found to induce the death of U937 human histiocytic lymphoma
Conventional fluid-bed and immersion film coating of hydrophilic zinc pectinate pellets by hydrophobic ethylcellulose is met with fast drug release. This study explored in situ intracapsular pellet coating for colon-specific delivery of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The solid coating powder constituted
The use of chemotherapeutic drugs in the treatment of malignant tumors is always associated with the severe side effects negatively affecting all organs and systems in human body. One of the approaches for reduction of the toxic influence and enhancement of the antitumor drug administration
A polysaccharide fraction, HBE-III, was successfully purified in a high yield (40.4%) from its crude polysaccharide (HBE-0) which was prepared from pectinase hydrolysates of the peels of the Korean Citrus Hallabong. In experimental lung metastasis studies of Colon 26-M3.1 carcinoma cells,
