background: acute pancreatitis (ap) refers to afflicted inflammation of pancreas with unfavorable adverse effects and developed multiple organ failures. unfortunately, there is not a certain therapeutic method for this disease. oxidative stress has a serious role in the pathogenesis of ap. thus, decreasing of oxidative stress may prevent induction and progression of ap. punica granatum l. has b...

Prostate cancer is dependent on circulating testosterone in its early stages and is treatable with radiation and surgery. However, recurrent prostate tumors advance to an androgen-independent state in which they progress in the absence of circulating testosterone, leading to metastasis and death. During the development of androgen independence, prostate cancer cells are known to increase intrac...

the present work was carried out to study the effect of vacuum packaging and pomegranate peel extract (pe) treatments on the quality of pacific white shrimp (peneous vannamei) during refrigerated storage. changes in ph, thiobarbituric acid (tba), total volatile base nitrogen (tvb-n), trimethylamine (tma), aerobic plate counts, psychrophilic, lactic acid bacteria and enterobacteriaceae counts, m...

Our research indicates that in Kerman and Fars provinces the phenomenal growth of seeds dietary supplements have received considerable interest, because of their presumed safety and potential, nutritional and functional effects. This interest can be attributed to several social and economic factors, including consumer beliefs. The amount of 7 minerals Zn, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, K and Na, were determin...

The recent pandemic scenario has caused demand for green products that have medicinal aspects, as well greener approaches global health. Natural dye from plants, particularly harmal seeds, is an excellent alternative to carcinogenic yellow synthetic dyes. current study been conducted isolate natural colorants seeds in methanolic medium through Gamma-Assisted Extraction (GAE). dyeing variables a...

Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs) are a heterogeneous group of molecules produced from non-enzymatic glycation. Accumulation of AGEs in vivo plays an important role in the pathology of chronic human diseases including type-2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. Natural AGEs inhibitors such as the pomegranate (Punica granatum) fruit show great potential for the management of these diseases. Her...

Silver carp fillets were treated with liposomal encapsulated and unencapsulated pomegranate peel extract at 0.5 and 1% w/w to evaluate the effect of the extracts on the shelf life of the fillets during 15 days of refrigerated storage. Quality changes of the samples were investigated in terms of total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), peroxide value (PV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and microbial c...

Over the past decade, pomegranate (Punica granatum) is entitled as a wonder fruit because of its voluminous pharmacological properties. In 1830, P. granatum fruit was first recognized in United States Pharmacopeia; the Philadelphia edition introduced the rind of the fruit, the New York edition the bark of the root and further 1890 edition the stem bark was introduced. There are significant effo...

Phytochemicals from fruits such as the pomegranate (Punica granatum L) may inhibit cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis through the modulation of cellular transcription factors and signaling proteins. In previous studies, pomegranate juice (PJ) and its ellagitannins inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in HT-29 colon cancer cells. The present study examined the effects of PJ on infl...
