复方葡萄籽提取物对乙醇及四氯化碳肝损伤的影响

目的：探讨复方葡萄籽提取物（GSE）对化学性肝损伤的预防和治疗作用。方法：用小鼠建造四氯化碳肝损伤和乙醇肝损伤模型，观察乙醇灌胃前预先给予复方GSE及乙醇或四氯化碳灌胃后再给予复方GSE后小鼠血清谷丙转氨酶（ALT），肝细胞超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、谷光甘肽（GSH）、丙二醛（MDA）。结果：预先给予GSE可增强SOD活性，防止乙醇导致的肝GSH减少，有效降低小鼠血清ALT和肝细胞MDA上升程度，在乙醇或四氯化碳灌胃后再给予复方GSE，也可降低小鼠血清中ALT和肝细胞脂质过氧化产物。结论：复方GSE对乙醇肝损伤有预防和治疗作用。对四氯化碳肝损伤也有一定治疗作用。

油茶肉质果和肉质叶开发价值及食用安全性分析

研究了油茶肉质果和肉质叶营养成分及食用安全性。成熟的肉质果（叶）各成分质量分数分别为：水分91．36％（91．58％）、蛋白质7．81％（6．56％）、脂肪3．7％（2．90％）、还原糖30．41％（21．83％）、总糖37．23％（29．28％）、茶皂素2．44％（1．46％）、灰分3．45％。（4．55％）、酸度0．35％（0．46％）。测定的矿物元素中，肉质叶、果的钙含量分别为411．3mg、359mg；锰的含量分别为31．35mg和33．06mg；含有16种氨基酸；所测的6种维生素中，维生素C和叶酸含量较高。毒性试验结果显示，样品为无毒野生果。微核试验和致畸试验结果表明：小鼠微核率与对照组比较，差异不显著（P〉0．05）。小鼠精子致畸率与阳性对照组比较无显著差异（P〉0．05）。样品对金黄色葡萄球菌抑制效果明显。该野生果基本无毒、无致突变物质，证明油茶肉质果、肉质叶是一种食用安全的野生果和食品资源。     

胡萝卜籽挥发油的抗生育作用

胡萝卜籽挥发油对小鼠有抗着床,抗早、中和晚期妊娠作用。对大鼠也有抗着床作用。挥发油中的萜类碳氢化合物部位,对小鼠皮下注射抗早期妊娠的ED_(50)为2.9ml/kg,甲地孕酮和hCG能明显逆转其作用;对假孕小鼠蜕膜瘤有抑制作用,此作用不能被甲地孕酮拮抗,皮下注射于早孕大鼠24、48小时后血浆孕酮浓度明显下降。以上提示其抗早孕作用机制可能与抑制孕酮合成和蜕膜反应有关。此外,挥发油碳氢部分无雌激素和抗雌激素活性,低浓度时对早孕大鼠离体子宫的收缩活动没有影响,高浓度则表现抑制作用。     

Does Drinking Coffee and Tea Affect Bone Metabolism in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases?

Patients suffering from Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are at higher risk of osteoporosis due to lower bone mineral density. Risk factors of osteoporosis are divided into unmodifiable, namely, age, gender, genetic factors, as well as modifiable, including diet, level of physical activity, and the use of stimulants. Coffee and tea contain numerous compounds affecting bone metabolism. Certain substances such as antioxidants may protect bones; other substances may increase bone resorption. Nevertheless, the influence of coffee and tea on the development and course of inflammatory bowel diseases is contradictory.     

Proanthocyanidins and Flavan-3-ols in the Prevention and Treatment of Periodontitis—Immunomodulatory Effects,Animal and Clinical Studies

This paper continues the systematic review on proanthocyanidins and flavan-3-ols in the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease and covers the immunomodulatory effects, and animal- and clinical studies, while the other part discussed the direct antibacterial properties. Inflammation as a major response of the periodontal tissues attacked by pathogenic microbes can significantly exacerbate the condition. However, the bidirectional activity of phytochemicals that simultaneously inhibit bacterial proliferation and proinflammatory signaling can provide a substantial alleviation of both cause and symptoms. The modulatory effects on various aspects of inflammatory and overall immune response are covered, including confirmed and postulated mechanisms of action, structure activity relationships and molecular targets. Further, the clinical relevance of flavan-3-ols and available outcomes from clinical studies is analyzed and discussed. Among the numerous natural sources of flavan-3-ols and proanthocyanidins the most promising are, similarly to antibacterial properties, constituents of various foods, such as fruits of Vaccinium species, tea leaves, grape seeds, and tannin-rich medicinal herbs. Despite a vast amount of in vitro and cell-based evidence of immunomodulatory there are still only a few animal and clinical studies. Most of the reports, regardless of the used model, indicated the efficiency of these phytochemicals from cranberries and other Vaccinium species and tea extracts (green or black). Other sources such as grape seeds and traditional medicinal plants, were seldom. In conclusion, the potential of flavan-3-ols and their derivatives in prevention and alleviation of periodontal disease is remarkable but clinical evidence is urgently needed for issuing credible dietary recommendation and complementary treatments.     

The effects of fenugreek seed extract supplementation in patients with Alzheimer's disease: A randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled trial

The aim of the current randomized control trial (RCT) study was to investigate the effects of fenugreek seed extract on memory, depression, quality of life, blood pressure, and serum malondialdehyde (MDA) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) levels in adult AD patients. This randomized clinical trial was conducted in geriatric homes in Iran. The study participants included 82 AD patients with mild-to-moderate memory deficit. Patients in the intervention group received 5 cc of fenugreek seed extract for 4 months and subjects in the control group received a placebo. Memory, depression, quality of life, and BP levels, as well as serum MDA and TAC, were assessed before and after the intervention. There was a significant increase in serum levels of TAC (p < 0.001) and a reduction in serum MDA status (p < 0.001) after 4 months of fenugreek seed extract supplementation. In addition, increasing levels of memory (p < 0.001) and quality of life (p < 0.001), as well as reduction of depression (p = 0.002), systolic BP (p < 0.001), and diastolic BP (p < 0.001) levels were detected in the intervention group compared with baseline. Fenugreek seed extract supplementation in AD patients shows promising positive effects on memory, quality of life, BP, and selective oxidative indices levels.
