Comparative analysis of sesame lignans (sesamin and sesamolin) in affecting hepatic fatty acid metabolism in rats.
Effects of sesamin and sesamolin (sesame lignans) on hepatic fatty acid metabolism were compared in rats. Rats were fed either a lignan-free diet, a diet containing 0.6 or 2 g/kg lignan (sesamin or sesamolin), or a diet containing both sesamin (1.4 g/kg) and sesamolin (0.6 g/kg) for 10 d. Sesamin and sesamolin dose-dependently increased the activity and mRNA abundance of various enzymes involve...
متن کاملWhole sesame seed is as rich a source of mammalian lignan precursors as whole flaxseed.
The mammalian lignans enterolactone and enterodiol, which are produced by the microflora in the colon of humans and animals from precursors in foods, have been suggested to have potential anticancer effects. This study determined the production of mammalian lignans from precursors in food bars containing 25 g unground whole flaxseed (FB), sesame seed (SB), or their combination (FSB; 12.5 g each...

Moazzami, A.A. 2006. Sesame Seed Lignans Diversity, Human Metabolism and Bioactivity. Doctor’s dissertation. ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7147-8 Sesame seed has been an important oilseed since ancient times. It contains 25% protein and 50% oil. Sesame seed possesses many health promoting effects, some of which have been attributed to a group of compounds called lignans (sesamin, sesamolin, sesam...
متن کاملComparative effects of sesame seeds differing in lignan contents and composition on fatty acid oxidation in rat liver.
We compared the physiological activities of sesame seeds rich in lignans from three varieties (Gomazou, Maruhime and Maruemon), and those from a conventional cultivar (Masekin) in rats. The sum of the values of fat-soluble lignans (sesamin and sesamolin) in seeds of Gomazou, Maruhime and Maruemon varieties was approximately double the value in Masekin. Seeds from Maruemon contained fat-soluble ...
متن کاملThe Sesame Lignan Sesamin Attenuates Vascular Permeability in Rats with Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes: Involvement of Oxidative Stress
Background: Cardiovascular disorders are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. Increased vascular permeability is a hallmark of diabetic vasculopathy, and the administration of natural products with antioxidant activity could restore vascular function. Objectives: In this study, the effect of chronic treatment with sesamin on vascular permeability in rats with streptozo...
