The results indicated that the great differences in total antioxidant capacity (TAC), scavenging free radical capacity (SFRC), total flavones and anthocyanin contents existed among 242 black rice varieties. Comparisons of TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of different black rice types showed that the differences between black rice and white rice, indica one and japonica one, and nonglutinous one and glutinous one were significant at 0.01 levels, respectively. This showed that the TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of japonica type were higher than those of indica one, and nonglutinous type were higher than glutinous one. According to the fast clustering procedure, 242 black rice varieties could be clustered into 10 clusters, 184 indica rice varieties into 10 clusters, and 58 japonica rice varieties into 6 clusters. Most significant (P〈0.01) correlations existed between TAC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents, and between SFRC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents of black rice, respectively. This showed that the antioxidation of black rice was closely correlated with its active compositions of flavones and anthocyanin.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to determine hepatic enzymes and oxidation/antioxidation in rats with acute alcoholism. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into three groups; control, low-dose alcohol, and high-dose alcohol. Each al- cohol group ( n = 12) was intravenously infused with etha- nol at a dose of 0.3 or 0.7 g/kg body weight respectively. The control group (n =11) was intravenously infused with normal saline at a dose of 0.5 g/kg body weight. Blood was collected for detection of hepatic enzymes and index of oxidation/antioxidation. RESULTS: The ratio of AST to ALT was 2.44±0.46, 2.57± 0.60 and 3.03 ±0.46 in the three groups, and the difference was significant between the control and high-dose alcohol groups (P^0.05). No significant changes were observed in the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspar- tate aminotransferase (AST), total protein (Tp), albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cholinesterase (ChE), total bilirubin (TB), C-reactive protein (CRP) and amy- lase. The levels of serum nitric oxide (NO) in the 3 groups were 39.2 ±73.25 mol/L, 42.30 ±4.60 mol/L and 47.86± 4.66 mol/L, and significant difference was seen between the control group and the high-dose alcohol group (P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in the levels of serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), malondiethylaldehyde (MDA), and CRP in the 3 groups. CONCLUSION: The ratio of AST to ALT appears to be a useful index for acute alcohol intoxication. NO is involved in the mechanism of acute alcohol intoxication.展开更多

Microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets was analyzed through SEM and EDS. The results indicate that the antioxidation effect of the alloy powder treated in silane solution is better than that of the other methods. The alloy powders treated in stearic acid (SA) solution and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) solution can prevent powders from oxidation for a short period of time. Silane solution is not suitable for metal injection molding (MIM) because it severely damages the magnetic properties and microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets. SA solution can not only prevent powders from oxidizing in MIM, but also does not damage magnetic properties and microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z magnets. The oxygen content of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets by MIM is 3300μg·g^-1.展开更多

However, the synergistic antioxidation mechanisms of BHA with synergists have not been revealed yet. Thus, the antioxidation of BHA with butylated hydroxytoluene(BHT), tert-butylhydroquinone(TBHQ), or propyl gallate(PG) was investigated in the 2,2-azobis(2-amidino-propane) dihydrochloride oxidizing system. The contents of BHA, BHT, TBHQ,PG, and transformation products were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Transformation products were identified with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Results showed that synergistic antioxidation occurred between BHA and BHT, TBHQ, or PG. The synergistic antioxidation effect of BHA and BHT was attributed to the regeneration of BHA by BHT. Transformation products of BHA and BHT(compounds 6 and 7, dimers of BHA and BHT) had little contribution due to the relatively low content(<0.6%). The synergistic antioxidation effect of BHA and TBHQ or BHA and PG was attributed to the protective mechanism of TBHQ or PG on BHA. No transformation products were detected of BHA and TBHQ. Transformation products of BHA and PG(compounds 9 and 10, dimers of BHA and PG) had limited contribution due to the relatively low percentage(<7%). Therefore, BHA and BHT performed competitive antioxidation,while BHA and TBHQ or PG performed protective antioxidation.展开更多

Methods: Using highperformance liquid chromatography, eugenol component was quantitated. The antioxidant activity of S. aromaticum L. was analyzed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging and superoxide dismutase like activities. To determine cell viability, elastase and matrix metalloproteinase-1(MMP-1) activity, human dermal fibroblasts(HS68) were treated with S. aromaticum L. The inhibitory effect of S. aromaticum L. on tumor necrosis factor alpha induced MMPs expression in HS68 was analyzed by realtime-PCR. Results: The eugenol content was confirmed in S. aromaticum L. S. aromaticum L. was observed to have high 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase like activity. S. aromaticum L. had no cytotoxicity against the HS68 and dose-dependently increased elastase inhibition. Moreover, S. aromaticum L. significantly decreased MMP-1 content and inhibited gene levels of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3 and MMP-9. Conclusions: The findings suggest that S. aromaticum L. has great potential as a cosmeceutical ingredient with antioxidant and antiwrinkling effects.展开更多

Oxidized sebum, or specifically oxidization of the squalene component in sebum, is one of the key reasons causing scalp inflammation. Therefore, antioxidation of the sebum is an important way to maintain scalp health. In this study, we investigated the relationship between squalene peroxide formed and its exposure time under UVA light. Further, we found two oil-soluble antioxidants, ginger root extract and vitamin E, being effective on antioxidation of sebum, and can be potentially used as scalp care actives.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND: Around the world more and more people suffer from acute alcoholism. The purpose of this study was to determine hepatic enzymes and oxidation/antioxidation in rats with acute alcoholism. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into three groups; control, low-dose alcohol, and high-dose alcohol. Each al- cohol group ( n = 12) was intravenously infused with etha- nol at a dose of 0.3 or 0.7 g/kg body weight respectively. The control group (n =11) was intravenously infused with normal saline at a dose of 0.5 g/kg body weight. Blood was collected for detection of hepatic enzymes and index of oxidation/antioxidation. RESULTS: The ratio of AST to ALT was 2.44±0.46, 2.57± 0.60 and 3.03 ±0.46 in the three groups, and the difference was significant between the control and high-dose alcohol groups (P^0.05). No significant changes were observed in the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspar- tate aminotransferase (AST), total protein (Tp), albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cholinesterase (ChE), total bilirubin (TB), C-reactive protein (CRP) and amy- lase. The levels of serum nitric oxide (NO) in the 3 groups were 39.2 ±73.25 mol/L, 42.30 ±4.60 mol/L and 47.86± 4.66 mol/L, and significant difference was seen between the control group and the high-dose alcohol group (P < 0.01).

文摘Antioxidation effects on Sm (Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets treated by different methods were studied through TGA and DTA. Microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets was analyzed through SEM and EDS. The results indicate that the antioxidation effect of the alloy powder treated in silane solution is better than that of the other methods. The alloy powders treated in stearic acid (SA) solution and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) solution can prevent powders from oxidation for a short period of time. Silane solution is not suitable for metal injection molding (MIM) because it severely damages the magnetic properties and microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets. SA solution can not only prevent powders from oxidizing in MIM, but also does not damage magnetic properties and microstructure of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z magnets. The oxygen content of Sm(Co, Cu, Fe, Zr)z-sintered magnets by MIM is 3300μg·g^-1.
文摘The Nd Fe B magnet powders were treated by organosilicon resins, silane coupling agent and dichromate salts. Using temperature tests, high temperature and high humidity tests, and DTA, the antioxidation behavior was studied. The results show that antioxidation characte ristics are improved remarkably.

文摘Butyl hydroxyanisole(BHA) is usually blended with other synthetic antioxidants to improve the antioxidative property due to synergistic antioxidation. However, the synergistic antioxidation mechanisms of BHA with synergists have not been revealed yet. Thus, the antioxidation of BHA with butylated hydroxytoluene(BHT), tert-butylhydroquinone(TBHQ), or propyl gallate(PG) was investigated in the 2,2-azobis(2-amidino-propane) dihydrochloride oxidizing system. The contents of BHA, BHT, TBHQ,PG, and transformation products were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Transformation products were identified with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Results showed that synergistic antioxidation occurred between BHA and BHT, TBHQ, or PG. The synergistic antioxidation effect of BHA and BHT was attributed to the regeneration of BHA by BHT. Transformation products of BHA and BHT(compounds 6 and 7, dimers of BHA and BHT) had little contribution due to the relatively low content(<0.6%). The synergistic antioxidation effect of BHA and TBHQ or BHA and PG was attributed to the protective mechanism of TBHQ or PG on BHA. No transformation products were detected of BHA and TBHQ. Transformation products of BHA and PG(compounds 9 and 10, dimers of BHA and PG) had limited contribution due to the relatively low percentage(<7%). Therefore, BHA and BHT performed competitive antioxidation,while BHA and TBHQ or PG performed protective antioxidation.
文摘[Objective] The paper was to study the metroptosis pathogenesis of dairy buffalo.[Method]A total of 53 dairy buffaloes were selected to detect serum calcium,phosphorus,malondialdehyde(MDA) and total antioxidant capacity(TAC) levels.Dairy buffaloes were divided into metroptosis group(M) and healthy control group(UM) according to metroptosis situations of buffalo.The correlation between metroptosis of buffalo and calcium,phosphorus and oxidation/antioxidation levels in plasma was analyzed.[Result] The contents of serum calcium and phosphorus and oxidation/antioxidation level of dairy buffalo at the prenatal week and the calving day in M group were significantly lower than that in UM group.The TAC level of dairy buffalo in M group from the first three weeks to the calving day was significantly lower than that in UM group.The MDA level in M group was significantly higher than that in UM group.[Conclusion] The occurrence of postpartum metroptosis in buffalo was related to insufficient levels of calcium and phosphorus in prepartum buffalo,declined total antioxidation capacity and accumulation of peroxide products.

文摘The antioxidant effects of quercetin were studied in vitro and in vivo.In vitro,vitamin C was used as a positive control to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of quercetin in three aspects:scavenging free radicals,protecting biological macromolecules and the total reducing power.In vivo,a total of 240 AA broilers(1-day age)with similar body weight were randomly divided into four groups with six replicates in each group,and 10 broilers in each replicate.The four groups were fed with corn-soybean basal diet supplemented with 0.00%,0.02%,0.04%and 0.06%quercetin to study its effects on antioxidant indexes of AA broilers,and to explore the optimal dose of quercetin as a dietary additive.The results showed that quercetin scavenged superoxide anion,hydroxyl radical and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)in vitro,the scavenging effects of quercetin on O_(2)-and•OH first increased and then decreased with the increase of the concentrations(P<0.01),and its maximum scavenging effect was observed at concentrations of 40 and 300 mg·L^(-1).The scavenging effects of quercetin on DPPH was increased constantly with increasing concentrations.The scavenging effect of quercetin on three free radicals was DPPH>•OH>O_(2)-.The inhibition of vitelline lipoprotein peroxidation by quercetin was increased with increasing concentrations(P<0.01)and the inhibitory effect was higher than that of vitamin C.The inhibition of red blood cell hemolysis by quercetin was increased with increasing concentrations at 0.05-1.25 mg·L^(-1)(P<0.01);however,the inhibition tended to decrease when the concentration was too high(31.25 mg·L^(-1)),and the inhibitory effect was higher than that of vitamin C.The inhibition of mitochondrial expansion by quercetin was increased with increasing concentrations,according to the degree of mitochondrial expansion at 60 min,the integrity of mitochondria in the experimental groups was significantly higher than that in the model group(P<0.01).The total reducing power of quercetin was increased with increasing concentrations(P<0.01);however,the total reducing power was less than that of vitamin C.In vivo,malondialdehyde(MDA)and nitric oxide(NO)were significantly decreased with increasing quercetin(P<0.01).Quercetin supplementation had no effect on the content of lipid peroxidation(LPO)in livers(P>0.05);however,superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity was significantly increased,whereas glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and catalase(CAT)activities were significantly decreased in livers with increasing quercetin(P<0.05).These results suggested that quercetin exhibited strong antioxidant effects in vitro and in vivo.
文摘This study aims to investigate the effects of EGCG on the lipid deposition and liver anti-oxidative capacity of broilers under heat stress.One hundred and ninety-two 2-week-old broilers were divided into four groups with 6 replicates per group and 8 chickens per replicate:one thermoneutral control group(28℃,TN group),which was fed the basal diet,and three cyclic high-temperature groups(35℃from 7:00 to 19:00 h;28℃from 19:00 h to 7:00 h,heat stress(HS)group),which were fed the basal diet added with EGCG at doses of 0(HS0 group),300(HS300 group),and 600 mg/kg(HS600 group),respectively.The liver metabolism and lipid deposition indices were performed at 35 d of age.The results showed that heat stress decreased the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),and the Nrf2 mRNA expression in liver,and increase significantly the levels of malondialdehyde(MDA)and the expression of LITAF,NF-KB,FAS,SREBP1 mRNA and the lipid deposition compared with TN group.EGCG(HS300 and HS600 group)increased the activities of SOD and GSH-Px and catalase(CAT),increased the Nrf2 mRNA expression,decreased the MDA contents,and reduced the lipid deposition and expression of LITAF,NF-KB,FAS and SREBP1 mRNA.In conclusion,the results of this study show that EGCG can improve liver antioxidative capacity to alleviate oxidative damage caused by heat stress.

文摘Scalp inflammation is a fundamental issue to many unhealthy scalp symptoms such as itching, redness, dandruff, and odor. Oxidized sebum, or specifically oxidization of the squalene component in sebum, is one of the key reasons causing scalp inflammation. Therefore, antioxidation of the sebum is an important way to maintain scalp health. In this study, we investigated the relationship between squalene peroxide formed and its exposure time under UVA light. Further, we found two oil-soluble antioxidants, ginger root extract and vitamin E, being effective on antioxidation of sebum, and can be potentially used as scalp care actives.

文摘Background Ginkgo biloba extract(GBE)is evidenced to be effective in the prevention and alleviation of metabolic disorders,including obesity,diabetes and fatty liver disease.However,the role of GBE in alleviating fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome(FLHS)in laying hens and the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated.Here,we investigated the effects of GBE on relieving FLHS with an emphasis on the modulatory role of GBE in chicken gut microbiota.Results The results showed that GBE treatment ameliorated biochemical blood indicators in high-fat diet(HFD)-induced FLHS laying hen model by decreasing the levels of TG,TC,ALT and ALP.The lipid accumulation and pathological score of liver were also relieved after GBE treatment.Moreover,GBE treatment enhanced the antioxidant activity of liver and serum by increasing GSH,SOD,T-AOC,GSH-PX and reducing MDA,and downregulated the expression of genes related to lipid synthesis(FAS,LXRα,GPAT1,PPARγand Ch REBP1)and inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-6,TLR4 and NF-κB)in the liver.Microbial profiling analysis revealed that GBE treatment reshaped the HFD-perturbed gut microbiota,particularly elevated the abundance of Megasphaera in the cecum.Meanwhile,targeted metabolomic analysis of SCFAs revealed that GBE treatment significantly promoted the production of total SCFAs,acetate and propionate,which were positively correlated with the GBE-enriched gut microbiota.Finally,we confirmed that the GBE-altered gut microbiota was sufficient to alleviate FLHS by fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT).Conclusions We provided evidence that GBE alleviated FLHS in HFD-induced laying hens through reshaping the composition of gut microbiota.Our findings shed light on mechanism underlying the anti-FLHS efficacy of GBE and lay foundations for future use of GBE as additive to prevent and control FLHS in laying hen industry.
