Adiposity suppression effect in mice due to black pepper and its main pungent component, piperine.
We investigated energy metabolism enhancement by pepper by examining suppression of body fat accumulation in mice due to piperine (PIP) and black pepper (BP) intake. To induce adiposity, mice were fed a high-fat, high-sucrose (HFS) diet as a control diet for 4 weeks. Visceral fat weights decreased significantly in the mice fed diets of 0.03% and of 0.05% PIP. Body weight in the 0.05% PIP group ...
متن کاملPiperine, a major constituent of black pepper, inhibits human P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4.
Dietary constituents (e.g., in grapefruit juice; NaCl) and phytochemicals (e.g., St. John's wort) are important agents modifying drug metabolism and transport and thereby contribute to interindividual variability in drug disposition. Most of these drug-food interactions are due to induction or inhibition of P-glycoprotein and/or CYP3A4. Preliminary data indicate that piperine, a major component...
متن کاملA model study on the photochemical isomerization of cyclic silenes.
The mechanism for the photochemical isomerization reaction is investigated theoretically using a model system of a five-membered-ring silene and the CAS(8,8)/6-311G(d) and MP2-CAS-(8,8)/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//CAS(8,8)/6-311G(d) methods. These model investigations indicate that the preferred reaction route for a five-membered-ring silene, which leads to the photorearrangement product, is as follows:...
متن کاملPhotochemical isomerization reactions of cyanopyrroles: a theoretical study.
The mechanisms of the photochemical isomerization reactions were investigated theoretically using a model system of 2-cyanopyrrole and 2-cyano-5-methylpyrrole with the CASSCF (eight-electron/seven-orbital active space) and MP2-CAS methods and the 6-311(d,p) basis set. The structures of the conical intersections, which play a decisive role in such phototranspositions, were obtained. The intermed...
متن کاملDetection of Pungent and Non-pungent Chilli Pepper (capsicum Sp.) Varieties at Seed Level, Using Pun Allele Specific Primer Map1
Genomic DNA isolated from zygotic embryos (seeds) of 7 chilli pepper varieties, namely Capsicum annuum L., California wonder, Yolo wonder, G-5, Pusa sadabahar, Pusa jyothi and LCA-335 and Capsicum chinense Jacq. variety Kotpar, was PCR-amplified using Pun1 allele specific primer MAP1. A DNA band admeasuring 479 bp was observed in C annuum L., varieties California wonder and Yolo wonder, while a...
