This study aimed to examine the antioxidative effects of Cnidium officinale Makino (COM) extracts and fractions using Caenorhabditis elegans as an experimental model. The COM ethanol extract was fractionated according to polarity. The results showed that the ethyl acetate fraction of COM showed powerful radical scavenging activities and increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase in C. elegans in a concentration-dependent manner. Moreover, the ethyl acetate fraction reduced the ROS production rate in C. elegans and increased the cell survival rate, suggesting oxidative and thermal stress resistance. In addition, the SOD-3::green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression level in the transformed cells of C. elegans (CF1553) increased, suggesting oxidative stress resistance. Similarly, the HSP-16.2::GFP expression level increased, suggesting thermal stress resistance. In conclusion, the ethyl acetate fraction of COM demonstrated the strongest antioxidative effects, indicating that it may help extend longevity.","PeriodicalId":20424,"journal":{"name":"Preventive Nutrition and Food Science","volume":"29 3","pages":"311-320"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11450287/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142381544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed that compared with the DSS- group, the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes was increased and that of Proteobacteria and Candidatus Melainabacteria was decreased in the GTP100 group. The ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes was also reduced in the GTP100 group. However, GTP administration did not modulate the microbial diversity.

Echinacea is a perennial wildflower belonging to the Asteraceae family. Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench is a species belonging to the Echinacea genus. Its characteristic compound, chicoric acid (CA), is known for its physiological activities, including antiviral effects and immune enhancement. Activities of E. purpurea 60% ethanol extract (EPE) and CA in inhibiting infections caused by H1N1, IVB, and RSV subtype A (RSV-A) were evaluated through plaque inhibition tests, quantification of viral gene expression, and analysis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images. Additionally, inhibitory activities of EPE and CA for hemagglutination and neuraminidase (NA) of H1N1 and IVB were determined. In the plaque reduction assays, both EPE and CA reduced infectivity against H1N1, IVB, and RSV-A. Furthermore, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that EPE and CA reduced gene expression levels for H1N1, IVB, and RSV-A, whereas TEM image analysis confirmed their inhibitory effects on host cell infection by these viruses. Hemagglutination assays exhibited the ability of EPE and CA to hinder H1N1 and IVB attachment to host cell receptors. Furthermore, EPE and CA displayed inhibition activity against the NA of H1N1 and IVB.

The Scopus database was used to search for relevant articles. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses protocol, 26 studies that met the criteria for meta-analysis were identified. The presentation included statistics (mean, standard deviation, sample size) and moderator variables (fruit types, osmotic agents, solution concentrations, drying methods, and drying temperatures). After pooling data using a random effects model, the OpenMEE software was used to conduct meta-analysis. The results showed that osmo-dried fruits had significantly decreased total color difference, titratable acidity, total flavonoid content, and vitamins B1 and B3 (P<0.05) and significantly increased β-carotene and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl levels (P<0.05). Osmotic pretreatment did not affect total phenolic content and vitamin C. Subgroup analysis highlighted the influence of moderator variables on the quality of osmo-dried fruits, with each fruit responding differently to osmotic pretreatment. Moreover, using 10% sugar solution as an additive effectively enhanced the quality of dried fruits. In addition, osmotic dehydration can be combined with convective drying at a temperature of 60°C for optimal results in the drying process.","PeriodicalId":20424,"journal":{"name":"Preventive Nutrition and Food Science","volume":"29 2","pages":"178-189"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11223927/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141555390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, the biodegradability assessment revealed that the edible films degraded within 14 days.

This review focuses on zinc's action in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) calcification, including the vascular calcification mechanism. Accumulated research has indicated that zinc deficiency induces calcification in VSMCs and the aorta, primarily through apoptosis accompanied by a downregulation of smooth muscle cell markers. Moreover, zinc deficiency-induced vascular calcification operates independently of the action of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, typically associated with osteogenic processes, but is partly regulated via inorganic phosphate transporter-1 (Pit-1). To date, research has shown that zinc regulates vascular calcification through a mechanism distinct from that of osteogenic calcification, providing insight into its dual effects on physiological and pathological calcification and thereby explaining the \"zinc paradox,\" wherein zinc simultaneously increases osteoblastic calcification and decreases VSMC calcification.","PeriodicalId":20424,"journal":{"name":"Preventive Nutrition and Food Science","volume":"29 2","pages":"118-124"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11223917/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141556494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
