Piperine may be considered a natural ingredient for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction in obese patients, some scientists suggested.
Piperine is a phytochemical alkaloid in the class of organosulfur compounds, found abundantly in white and black pepper, long pepper, etc.
Obesity is a medical condition characterized by excess body fat accumulated in the body over time.
While overweight is a condition of excess body weight relative to height.
According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of the American population is either overweight or obese, a leading cause of metabolic dysfunction.
In other words, obesity is a metabolic disorder that predisposes patients to numerous diseases which not only causes a financial burden to the healthcare system but also increases the reduction of quality of life of the patients.
Metabolic dysfunction is caused either by abnormal chemical reactions or disruption of chemical production in the body, altering the normal metabolic process.
Some researchers suggested that obesity's metabolic dysfunction may be a result of the liver or pancreas do not function properly due to fat accumulated in the organs.
There is no coincidence that the widespread obesity over the past several decades is correlated to the promotion of the Western diet. Some researchers firmly suggested that a diet rich in saturated and trans fat, red meat, and processed foods and less in fruits and vegetables and whole grains is associated with the onset of obesity.
Dr. Bortolin RC, the lead scientist in the study to examine the metabolic parameters and gut microbiota changes in rats fed with the Western diet suggested: "diet, and not the obese state, was the major driving force behind gut microbiota changes" and "WD-fed rats developed obesity and obesity-related comorbidities independent of major alterations in gut microbiota composition (dysbiosis), whereas CAF-fed rats developed the greatest dysbiosis independent of obesity".
The result clearly stated that long-term intake of the Western diet induces metabolic syndrome and obesity. In other words, Obesity is not the cause of metabolic dysfunction.
In finding a natural ingredient or whole food for the prevention and treatment of widespread obesity-induced metabolic dysfunctions in the Western world, researchers examine the antimetabolic phytochemical Piperine isolated from the black pepper.
The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 8-week trial included the assessment of the efficacy of metabolic changes versus a placebo.
In a total of 86 overweight subjects selected to the study, 41 patients (2/14 F/M; age 43.7 ± 8.5; BMI 30.3 ± 3.5 kg/m(2)) were assigned to the supplemented group and 45 (29/16; age 40.7 ± 10.2; BMI 30.0 ± 2.7) to the control group.
At the end of 8 weeks, the supplement group showed a decrease in levels of a hormone produced by adipose cells that regulates energy balance by inhibiting hunger. High levels of leptin hormone are an indication of leptin resistance, found in overweight and obese patients.
The levels of a hormone associated with the stimulated appetite increased food intake and promoted fat storage also decreased in the supplement group. The hormone ghrelin is found abundantly in overweight and obese subjects.
Furthermore, the supplement group also showed a decrease in inflammation observed by the levels of C-reactive protein and an increased resting energy expenditure significantly, compared to the placebo.
Compared to the decreased significantly levels of adiponectin in the placebo, the supplement group also showed an increase in the hormone protein that regulates glucose levels as well as fatty acid breakdown.
These results suggested that the supplement group demonstrates a greater chance of metabolic dysfunction compared to the placebo.
In other words, introducing piperine into the overweight and obese diet might be useful for the treatment of obesity-related inflammatory metabolic dysfunctions.
Additionally, in order to understand the effect of piperine on overweight and obese insulin resistance, researchers evaluated the bioactive chemical activity in mice feeding a high-fat diet (HFD) for 13 weeks.
Before injecting the mice with piperine, researchers found that mice fed with high-fat diet displayed elevated plasma concentrations of insulin and glucose and hepatic lipid levels.
Administration of piperine (50 mg/kg body weight) only normalized the concentrations of insulin and glucose and hepatic lipid levels but also increased the levels of adiponectin and inhibited the protein which plays an important role in mediating lipogenesis, fatty acid oxidation and insulin signaling in the livers of mice.
In gene observation, piperine injection also increased the expression of the carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) gene involved in the regulation of fatty acid oxidation in the liver, an indication of resist weight gain.
Dr. Choi S, the lead researcher suggested, piperine significantly decreased insulin resistance in mice fed with a high-fat diet by increasing the levels of adiponectin and activating the pathway associated with fatty acid oxidation.
Taken together, piperine may be considered a bioactive compound for the protection of overweight and obese against inflammatory and metabolic dysfunctions and weight gain without inducing any side effects

#Carrots Show to Reduces Gastric/Stomach Cancer, According to Studies
Kyle J. Norton
Carrots may have a profound and positive effect on reduced risk, progression, and treatment of gastric cancer, some scientists suggested.
Gastric cancer is a slowly developed condition characterized by cell growth uncontrollably and disorderly in the stomach tissue. At the later stage, the cancerous cells may travel a distance away to infect other healthy cells of the tissue and organs.
According to the US cancer society, approximately 26000 new cases of gastric cancer are diagnosed in 2018 inducing the death of over 10,000 patients.
The risk that a man and woman will develop gastric cancer in their lifetime is 1 in 95 and 1 in 154 respectively.
The exact causes of gastric cancer are unknown, some researchers suggested that older people, males, heavy smokers, people with a family history of gastric cancer, and certain ethnic groups such as
Asian (especially Korean or Japanese), South American, or Belarusian descent are at increased prevalent risk of gastric cancer.
Interestingly, during the past several decades, the numbers of common gastric cancer are showing a tendency of receding, however, at the same time, cancer in the area where the top part of the stomach meets the lower end of the swallowing tube (esophagus) has increased rapidly.
Also, some medical conditions such as lymphoma, H. pylori bacterial infections, tumors in the digestive system, and stomach polyps are associated with the risk of the disease.
If you experiment with persistent feelings floating after eating, small meals after eating, heartburn, indigestion,... and stomach pain accompanied by general symptoms of cancer such as unexplained weight loss, please check with your doctor to rule out the possibility of gastric cancer.
Carrot, a root vegetable with orange color is a sub species of Daucus carota, belongings to the family Apiaceae, native to Asia and Europe.
In the investigation of the hypothesis of "eating carrots may play a major role in the prevention of gastric cancer", researchers at the joint study led by the J Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences conducted a medical literature review selected from the databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Persian databases like Scientific Information Database (SID) and IranMedx, those studies satisfied the guidelines and criteria showed that risk of gastric cancer reduced by 26% with the consumption of carrots.
After taking into account other co-factors, researchers warranted that the result does not show the possibility of publication bias, according to the funnel graph by comprehensive meta-analysis/2.0 software.
Although without mentioning the amount intake daily, these results showed an inverse relationship between the consumption of carrots and the risk of gastric cancer.
Furthermore, in the analysis of the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) overgrowth on the risk of gastric cancer, scientists found that injection of the gene of UreB into carrot by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation expressed a significant effect in regenerated carrot plants the expressed UreB protein accounted for 25mug/g roots in reduced expression of H. pylori.
The same application also showed a similar effect on immune response in the inhibition of infection of bacterial Helicobacter pylori in mice.
These results suggested that certain chemical compounds in carrots may consist of a strong anti-microorganism activity by protecting the plant against bacterial infection.
Therefore, UreB transgenic carrot can be potentially used as an edible vaccine for controlling H. pylori but also ameliorated the risk of the bacteria in the induction of gastric cancer.
The illustration of the above differentiation was supported by the study conducted by the Graduate School of Fudan University.
According to the evaluation of the Wuxing soup containing Daikon Radish Leaves (Green element) Daikon Radish (White element) Carrots (Red color element) Burdock Root (Yellow element) Shittake Mushroom (Black element), application of the soup to the human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line (SGC-7901) expressed a huge inhibitory activity in reduced tumor cells proliferation in a time and dose-dependent manner.
More importantly, Wuxing soup induced tumor cell death through apoptotic morphological changes and the DNA ladder of the tested SGC-7901 cells.
Additionally, used combination with calcium inhibitor Bapta AM, an intracellular calcium chelator not only exerted a strong effect in reducing the cancer apoptotic rate but also protected SGC-7901 cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Dr. Mo F, the lead author said, "Wuxing soup has an effective inhibition on cancer cells, and can induce SGC-7901 cells to apoptosis by calcium".
Taken together, carrots may be considered as a functional food in ameliorated risk and used in combination with conventional standard treatment for gastric cancer.
However, further data collection on large example size and multi centers studies performed with human consumption of whole food during the course of gastric cancer will be necessary to complete the picture of carrot's anti-cancer possibilities.

#Ginger Supplementation Inhibits Parameters Associated with the Risk of #MetabolicSyndrome, Scientists Say
Kyle J. Norton
Ginger may have a potential and profound effect in regulating the expression of metabolic syndrome, some scientists suggested.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions associated with the onset of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including fat around the waist, elevated blood pressure, high triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.
Researchers suggested that people who have 3 of 5 above conditions are at substantial risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
There is no single cause of the metabolic syndrome. some conditions epidemiologically are associated with overweight or obese, insulin resistance, inactive lifestyle and poor diet.
According to the statistic, In the US, approximately, over 23 percent of adults have metabolic syndrome, many of them do not know they have it.
In fact, metabolic syndrome can be reversed through a healthy lifestyle choice, accompanied by weight loss.
Dr. Christos Pitsavos, the cardio team at the University of Athens and Society for Biomedical Diabetes Research, wrote, "Several epidemiologic studies and some clinical trials, it has been suggested that people with the metabolic syndrome may benefit from intensive lifestyle modifications including dietary changes and adopting a physically more active lifestyle."
"During the last decades increasing scientific evidence has emerged that protective health effects can be obtained from diets that are rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains, and which include fish, nuts, and low-fat dairy products".
These results clearly stated that by changing the poor diet pattern to a healthy one accompanied by moderate exercise, metabolic syndrome can be reserved.
Furthermore, a healthy lifestyle in patients with metabolic syndrome also greatly improved the reduction of body weight.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to find a natural ingredient or whole food for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, researchers assess the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) by searching the database of medical literature.
10 studies met the inclusion criteria with a total of 490 individuals included in the review.
Ginger showed a significant beneficial effect on glucose control and insulin sensitivity.
Ginger significantly reduced fasting blood glucose in T2DM patients (-21.24; 95% CI: -33.21, -9.26; P < 0.001) and three-month average plasma glucose concentration.
Furthermore, ginger also displayed significant effects on the improvement of the lipid profile.
Dr. Zhu J, the lead scientist said, at the final report "Based on the negligible side effects and obvious ameliorative effects on glucose control, insulin sensitivity, and lipid profile, ginger may be a promising adjuvant therapy for T2DM and MetS".
Moreover, in order to gain more evidence of ginger's anti-metabolic syndrome effect, a study to determine the individual and concomitant effect of 6-week water-based exercise and oral ginger supplement on markers that have related to metabolic syndrome and systemic inflammation in obese women with breast neoplasms was conducted the University of Mazandaran.
40 women diagnosed with breast neoplasms were randomly assigned into four groups; placebo, exercise training, a ginger supplement, and exercise training+ ginger supplement groups.
Participants in the ginger supplement group and the exercise training+ ginger supplement group have orally received 4 capsules, 7 days a week and 6 weeks.
During the experiment, the ginger supplementation and the water-based exercise have resulted in a reduction of hs-CRP, IL-10 (inflammation), insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG); but an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and ratio HDL/LDL.
These results strongly suggested that ginger supplement plus exercise demonstrates a significant effect in reducing the fasting glucose, insulin resistance, inflammation, and lipid profile and balancing the ratio of high and low-density lipoproteins.
In other words, the water-based exercise and ginger supplement group significantly showed a larger positive effect on all outcomes, compared to the water-based exercise or ginger supplement alone groups.
The findings suggested that obese breast neoplasms survivors' metabolic syndrome and elevated inflammation were totally inhibited by the application of ginger supplement plus exercise training.
Taken together, ginger, the pungent spice can be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome accompanied by moderate exercise without inducing any adverse effects.

#Antioxidant #Alliin Inhibits Proteins and Genes involved Diseases Associated with the Production of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines
Kyle J. Norton
Inflammation is a natural defense of the immune system that protects the body against the invasion of harmful stimuli and pathogens.
In the acute phase of infection, the immune first line of defense white blood cells, macrophages stimulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines with an aim to destroy all invaders which try to enter the body.
Most cases of acute infection are stopped at this phase and the wound is healed itself quickly.
However, if the wound is too large, then the recovery may take a longer period of time and through 4 overlap recovery stages.
Any interruption in the overlapped recovery stage may cause the formation of scars, similar to those of overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Diseases associated with chronic inflammation induced by protein, lipid, and cellular damage include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative disease,... and cancers.
In other words, prolonged low-grade inflammation caused by continuing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines due to an immune response that can not kill off all invaders in a set period between 3-8 weeks can result in serious and chronic diseases.
The results have been found to cause cell death and alternation of cell DNA.
Believe it or not, people with low-grade chronic inflammation are prone to psychological stress that links to a greater risk for depression, and heart disease. particularly the body's ability to regulate the inflammatory response and normal defense.
Out of many risk factors involved in the onset of chronic inflammatory diseases, some researchers suggested the promotion of a high-fat diet in the Western world may correlate to the rise of the condition.
Dr. Yehui Duan, the lead scientist wrote, "In recent years, chronic overnutrition, such as consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD), has been increasingly viewed as a significant modifiable risk factor for diseases such as diabetes and certain types of cancer".
And, "the recent scientific literature about HFD-induced inflammation and subsequent development of diseases and cancer, with an emphasis on mechanisms involved.

Alliin (S-allyl-L-cysteine-S-oxide) is a phytochemical compound sulfoxide,. a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, belonging to the class of sulfur compounds, found abundantly in fresh garlic and onion.
In the urgency to find a natural and potential compound for the treatment of diseases associated with inflammation, researchers examined the active component is alliin (S-allyl cysteine sulfoxide) anti-inflammatory activity.
Before incubated with alliin, lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes showed a significant increase in proteins involved in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, MCP-1, and Egr-1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes exposed to 100 ng/mL LPS for 1 hour.
According to the tested assay in lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes incubated for 24 h with 100 μmol/L alliin, the bioactive compound inhibited such increase.
Furthermore, the overexpression of the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 associated with cell differentiation including cell death caused by LPS-induced inflammation in adipocytes was also decreased following alliin treatment.
Additionally, alliin prevented the expression of inflammation in facilitating the alternation of cell DNA by modulating the gene expressions involved in immune response such as tumor-suppressive genes and inhibiting the genes related to cancer.
Dr. Saray Quintero-Fabián, the lead scientist wrote, " The present results have shown that alliin is able to suppress the LPS inflammatory signals by generating an anti-inflammatory gene expression profile and by modifying adipocyte metabolic profile".
Taken altogether, alliin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with inflammation, depending on the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of alliin in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Inflammation is a natural defense of the immune system that protects the body against the invasion of harmful stimuli and pathogens.
In the acute phase of infection, the immune first line of defense white blood cells, macrophages stimulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines with an aim to destroy all invaders which try to enter the body.
Most cases of acute infection are stopped at this phase and the wound is healed itself quickly.
However, if the wound is too large, then the recovery may take a longer period of time and through 4 overlap recovery stages.
Any interruption in the overlapped recovery stage may cause the formation of scars, similar to those of overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Diseases associated with chronic inflammation induced by protein, lipid, and cellular damage include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative disease,... and cancers.
In other words, prolonged low-grade inflammation caused by continuing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines due to an immune response that can not kill off all invaders in a set period between 3-8 weeks can result in serious and chronic diseases.
The results have been found to cause cell death and alternation of cell DNA.
Believe it or not, people with low-grade chronic inflammation are prone to psychological stress that links to a greater risk for depression, and heart disease. particularly the body's ability to regulate the inflammatory response and normal defense.
Out of many risk factors involved in the onset of chronic inflammatory diseases, some researchers suggested the promotion of a high-fat diet in the Western world may correlate to the rise of the condition.

#NavyBean Inhibits #Genes and #Proteins Associated with Acute-Inflammative Diseases in Vivo, According to Studies
Kyle J. Norton
Inflammation is a natural response by the immune system to protect the body against the invasion of stimuli or foreign pathogens.
Acute inflammation is a short-term condition caused by tissue injury, leading to pain, redness, swelling, and heat in the affected area. depending on the size of the injury. Some patients with acute inflammation may also experience the symptom of loss of function.
In acute inflammation, the white blood cells on the first line of defense of the immune system after sensing the danger of an infection in the body through a message from the brain stimulate the production of platelets to cover the site of injury or damage and inflammatory cytokines to kill off all pathogens before they can cause harm to the body.
Most cases of infection are stopped at the acute phase. The wound or injury is slowly recovered.
However, in people with a weakened immune system, acute inflammatory progression cannot be stopped due to the inability of the immune system to destroy all invaders, which may lead to low-grade chronic inflammation.
Anti-inflammation is the process that inhibits inflammation or swelling without affecting the immune property to curb foreign pathogens.
Conventionally, the most common use of anti-inflammatory medicines is over counter aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, Nuprin), and other prescription NSAIDs.
Holistically, according to the Medical University Innsbruck, the top 5 anti-inflammatory foods are
* Garlic
Recent studies also showed that garlic exhibits anti-inflammatory effects against chronic inflammatory disease through phytochemical allicin and other mechanisms.
* Ginger
Strong evidence in Western studies suggested that ginger processes anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immune-modulatory effects.
* Turmeric
Epidemiological studies also found the efficacy of turmeric for the treatment of diabetes, microbial infection gastrointestinal diseases, and irregular cell growth such as cancer through its anti-inflammatory antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities.
* Green tea
Epidemiological studies suggested that green tea consists of many pharmaceutical properties, including anti-cancer, anti-diabetes, anti-allergy, and anti-micro-organisms infection, through its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immune-modulatory activities.
* Shiitake mushrooms
Recent studies showed that Shiitake mushrooms process the properties of anti-cancer, anti-HIV, and hepatitis virus, an enhanced immune system against inflammation.
The small, white navy bean, also called pea bean or haricot, popular in both dry and green forms, is very popular in Britain and the US, native to Peru. It is now grown and consumed across the world, due to its numerous health benefits.
With an aim to find a potential ingredient for diseases associated with acute inflammation, researchers examined the enriched levels of nondigestible fermentable carbohydrates and phenolic compounds found in black and navy beans' immunomodulatory effects on the severity of colitis-associated inflammatory pathology.
In an animal model, C57Bl/6 mice were pre-fed isocaloric 20% cooked navy bean (NB) or black bean (BB) diets for 3 weeks and switched to control basal diet (BD) 24 h prior to colitis induction via 5-day exposure to dextran sodium sulfate (2% w/v in drinking water)+3 days of freshwater, researchers found that* The severity of the acute colitis phenotype associated with inflammation was inhibited by bean prefeeding, observed by reduced colon tissue inflammatory transcription factor activation such as NFκB, STAT3) and inflammatory mediator levels such as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, and MCP-1 compared to control.
* Black and navy beans also stimulated the biomarkers that enhance wound repair responses. including colon tissue protein levels of IL-22, and IL-27.
* Furthermore, the black and navy beans diet also increases the mRNA expressions of genes involved in the normal colonic epithelial function and the promotion of epithelial barrier integrity, defense and/or restitution, and wound closure in acute colonic inflammation.
Based on the findings, researchers concluded, " bean supplementation prior to colitis induction (i.e., mimicking disease relapse) primes the colonic microenvironment to attenuate the severity of the colitis inflammatory phenotype and maintain aspects of epithelial barrier function".
Taken together, the navy bean may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of acute inflammation, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Phytochemical #Sinigrin Induces Genotoxicity and Proliferation Against #Cancer Cells, According to Studies
Kyle J. Norton
Sinigrin may be used as a natural and bioactive compound for killing cancer cells before they can spread, according to studies.
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by cell growth irregularly in the tissue of the body, including glands and organs due to the alternation of cell DNA.
In normal cells, through the process of mitosis, new cells are born through the division of one cell into two with an aim to replace cells that have been lost, damaged, or worn out. The cell division cycle is closely regulated and they can give rise to only a limited array of cells.
The characteristics of cancer cell growth are completely different compared to normal cells. The cancer cell can divide indefinitely; They are out of control by the immune system. They don't follow the signals of stop division,.... and they do not have a specific function.
How cancer grows? Most cancers stimulate the production of a new blood vessel for nutrition and the function of producing enzymes that break down normal cells and tissues.
All cancers share the general symptoms of unintended weight loss, loss of appetite, fatigue, tiredness, and gastrointestinal discomforts accompanied by specific symptoms depending on the location of the cancer or the organ that was affected.
Out of a number of risk factors, some researchers suggested the creation of obesity in the modern world may be one of the major risk factors associated with the incidence.
Dr. Nathan A. Berger in the evaluation of obesity and risk of cancer wrote, "Overweight and obesity have reached pandemic levels on a worldwide basis and are associated with increased risk and a worse prognosis for many but not all malignancies".
And, " lessons learned from the use of murine models to study the association, the impact of obesity on pancreatic cancer, the effect of dietary fats and cholesterol as cancer promoters, and the mechanisms by which the intestinal microbiome affects obesity and cancer".
The results showed a relationship between the unhealthy diet risk of obesity in the induction of cancer.
Sinigrin is a phytochemical glucosinolate, that belongs to the family of glucosides found abundantly in Brussels sprouts, broccoli, the seeds of black mustard, etc.
Researchers on finding a natural compound for the treatment of cancers examined sinigrin, the bioactive ingredient in cruciferous vegetables for their health benefits and cancer prevention properties in vitro against HL60 (human promyelocytic leukemia cell line) systems.
According to the HL60 assays, sinigrin showed the tumoricidal activity of plant samples (IC50 = 0.28 mg·mL(-1)) by breaking down the products of sinigrin hydrolysis.
Sinigrin also exerted a significant effect in the induction of tumor genotoxicity and proliferation causing harm to the nearby healthy cells.
The finding strongly suggested that the efficacy of cruciferous vegetables in inducing cancer cell death and proliferation was attributed to the presence of the bioactive ingredient sinigrin.
Furthermore, in a model of carcinogen-induced hepatotoxicity in rats, injection of sinigrin significantly inhibited the proliferation of liver tumor cells without inducing liver toxicity.
Injection of the compound for a period of 3 months exhibited pro-apoptotic activity against liver cancer by activating the tumor-suppressive gene in the rats.
The active bioactive compound also inhibited cancer cell proliferation by deactivating the production of proteins associated with liver cancer cell differentiation.
The effect of sinigrin against liver cancer is also found to cancer cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase.
The results clearly suggest that sinigrin processes important anti-proliferative activities in carcinogen-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in rats.
Taken altogether, sinigrin a bioactive ingredient in cruciferous vegetables may be considered a functional supplement for the prevention and treatment of cancer, pending to the confirmation of a large sample size and multicenter human study.
However, intake of bioactive in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care, as liver toxicity may be induced if overdosed.

#Cranberry Supplementation Reduces Aβ toxicity induced Brain Cell Stress Agaisnt the Onset of #Alzheimer's disease, Reseracher Say
Kyle J. Norton
Amyloid beta (Aβ or Abeta) is the main component of the amyloid plaques that cause the gradual death of neurons, leading to the onset of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's disease is a common form of dementia or neurodegenerative disease found in the elderly.
Alzheimer's disease is a type of dementia correlated with major reductions of neurons to the respective target areas, named after German physician Alois Alzheimer.
According to the statistics, the disease is most prevalent in the elderly. Approximately 5.7 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's. 15.9 million family caregivers provide an estimated 18.2 billion hours and $230 billion to people with dementia worldwide.
Alzheimer's disease is caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle and environmental factors that affect the neurons of the brain over time. However, less than 10% of patients with AD are associated with a genetic preposition. Patients with such mutated genes on chromosomes 21, 14, and 1are virtually guaranteed to develop the disease.
More precisely, Alzheimer's disease is caused by the gradual loss of neuron functioning that usually starts with the early symptom of the difficulty of remembering recent events and worsens over time.
Alzheimer's destroys brain cells, causing cognitive modalities severe enough to affect language communication, memory, lifelong hobbies or social life. Alzheimer's gets worse over time, and it is fatal.
Cranberry is an evergreen dwarf shrub, genus Vaccinium, belongings to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern America and Southern Asia.
Because of its health benefits, cranberry has been cultivated in some parts of the world for commercial profit and used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat wounds, urinary disorders, diarrhea, diabetes, stomach ailments, and liver problems.
In finding a potential compound for the treatment of mental disorders, researchers examined the effect of cranberry supplementation on β-amyloid aggregation.
According to tested analysis, the cranberry protected the neurons by mediating Aβ toxicity alleviation required heat shock transcription factor (HSF)-1 rather than DAF-16 and SKN-1 associated with cellular stress.
In other words, cranberry supplementation reduced Aβ toxicity induced brain cell stress by reducing the transactivity of HSF-1 in an IIS-dependent manner.
More precisely, HSF-1 plays a pivotal role in maintaining proteostasis, a process that regulates proteins within the cell in order to maintain the neuron cellular health involved in oxidative stress.
Based on the findings, researchers aid, "(cranberry) elucidated the mechanism whereby cranberry attenuated Aβ toxicity in C elegans and stressed the significance of proteostasis in the prevention of age-related diseases from a practical point of view.".
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered a remedy for the treatment of AD, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Amyloid beta (Aβ or Abeta) is the main component of the amyloid plaques that cause the gradual death of neurons, leading to the onset of Alzheimer's disease.
Alzheimer's disease is a common form of dementia or neurodegenerative disease found in the elderly.
Alzheimer's disease is a type of dementia correlated with major reductions of neurons to the respective target areas, named after German physician Alois Alzheimer.
According to the statistics, the disease is most prevalent in the elderly. Approximately 5.7 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's. 15.9 million family caregivers provide an estimated 18.2 billion hours and $230 billion to people with dementia worldwide.
Alzheimer's disease is caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle and environmental factors that affect the neurons of the brain over time. However, less than 10% of patients with AD are associated with a genetic preposition. Patients with such mutated genes on chromosomes 21, 14, and 1are virtually guaranteed to develop the disease.
More precisely, Alzheimer's disease is caused by the gradual loss of neuron functioning that usually starts with the early symptom of the difficulty of remembering recent events and worsens over time.
Alzheimer's destroys brain cells, causing cognitive modalities severe enough to affect language communication, memory, lifelong hobbies or social life. Alzheimer's gets worse over time, and it is fatal.
Cranberry is an evergreen dwarf shrub, genus Vaccinium, belongings to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern America and Southern Asia.
Because of its health benefits, cranberry has been cultivated in some parts of the world for commercial profit and used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat wounds, urinary disorders, diarrhea, diabetes, stomach ailments, and liver problems.
In finding a potential compound for the treatment of mental disorders, researchers examined the effect of cranberry supplementation on β-amyloid aggregation.
According to tested analysis, the cranberry protected the neurons by mediating Aβ toxicity alleviation required heat shock transcription factor (HSF)-1 rather than DAF-16 and SKN-1 associated with cellular stress.
In other words, cranberry supplementation reduced Aβ toxicity induced brain cell stress by reducing the transactivity of HSF-1 in an IIS-dependent manner.
More precisely, HSF-1 plays a pivotal role in maintaining proteostasis, a process that regulates proteins within the cell in order to maintain the neuron cellular health involved in oxidative stress.
Based on the findings, researchers aid, "(cranberry) elucidated the mechanism whereby cranberry attenuated Aβ toxicity in C elegans and stressed the significance of proteostasis in the prevention of age-related diseases from a practical point of view.".
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered a remedy for the treatment of AD, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
