Abstract Nutrient metabolism governs the effector functions like activation, expansion, and subset differentiation of CD4 +T-cells, orchestrators adaptive immunity. The levels reactive oxygen species (ROS), metabolic byproducts cellular are regulated by antioxidation pathway, which is composed Keap1 Nrf2 proteins. We observed that, expression temporally post-activation in +T-cells (high on day ...

Several species of Magnoliaceae and Annonaceae are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. (-)-Anonaine, isolated from several species of Magnoliaceae and Annonaceae, presents antiplasmodial, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidation, anticancer, antidepression, and vasorelaxant activity. This article provides an overview of the pharmacological functions of (-)-anonaine.

Fermented foods are known worldwide for their functional health properties. In order to promote the relative product development of edible grass, Lactobacillus plantarum (Lp) and rhamnosus (Lr) were used ferment grass in this study. Effects fermentation using Lp Lr monoculture binary mixture on physicochemical properties, contents compounds antioxidant activity at different times investigated b...

This study attempted to investigate the functionality of <i>Dactylosiphon bullosus</i>, <i>Sporochnus radiciformis</i>, and <i>Zonaria diesingiana</i> extracts among algae as cosmetic ingredients. For this, antioxidant experiments were performed. <i>D. <i>S. radiciformis</i> <i>Z. prepared with a 70% ethanol concentration measure activ...

HDL has been shown to possess a variety of cardio-protective functions, including removal of excess cholesterol from the periphery, and inhibition of lipoprotein oxidation. It has been proposed that various HDL subparticles exist, each with distinct protein and lipid compositions, which may be responsible for HDL's many functions. We hypothesized that HDL functions will co-migrate with the oper...

Antioxidant proteins perform significant functions in maintaining oxidation/antioxidation balance and have potential therapies for some diseases. Accurate identification of antioxidant proteins could contribute to revealing physiological processes of oxidation/antioxidation balance and developing novel antioxidation-based drugs. In this study, an ensemble method is presented to predict antioxid...

Carotenoids are plant secondary metabolites that are involved in photosynthesis, antioxidation and phytohormone synthesis. The subcellular localization of carotenoids in plant organelles (chloroplasts, chromoplasts) provides a stable environment which prevents their release or chemical degradation. On the other hand, compartmentalization within the plant cell is the main physical barrier that h...
