  • Régulation De L'inflammation Par Les Lipides Bioactifs : Interactions Biosynthétiques Et Fonctionnelles Entre Les Endocannabinoïdes Et Les Éicosanoïdes
    Régulation de l'inflammation par les lipides bioactifs : interactions biosynthétiques et fonctionnelles entre les endocannabinoïdes et les éicosanoïdes Thèse Caroline Turcotte Doctorat en microbiologie-immunologie Philosophiæ doctor (Ph. D.) Québec, Canada © Caroline Turcotte, 2019 Régulation de l’inflammation par les lipides bioactifs : interactions biosynthétiques et fonctionnelles entre les endocannabinoïdes et les éicosanoïdes Thèse Caroline Turcotte Sous la direction de : Nicolas Flamand, directeur de recherche Marie-Renée Blanchet, codirectrice de recherche Résumé Les maladies inflammatoires chroniques sont un fardeau de santé important à travers le monde. Les traitements actuellement disponibles soulagent la douleur et l’inflammation, mais leurs effets secondaires rendent leur utilisation à long terme risquée. À la lumière de cette problématique, la communauté scientifique s’intéresse au potentiel d’anti-inflammatoires naturels comme les endocannabinoïdes. Les endocannabinoïdes sont des lipides endogènes qui activent les récepteurs cannabinoïdes (CB1 et CB2). Ils régulent ainsi divers processus physiologiques tels l’appétit, l’adipogénèse et la nociception. Les deux endocannabinoïdes les mieux caractérisés, le 2-AG et l’AEA, peuvent également moduler l’inflammation en activant le récepteur CB2 à la surface des cellules immunitaires. Les souris déficientes pour le récepteur CB2 présentent un phénotype inflammatoire exacerbé, suggérant que ce récepteur est anti-inflammatoire. Cependant, le rôle des endocannabinoïdes dans l’inflammation est beaucoup plus complexe puisqu’ils peuvent être métabolisés en une grande variété de médiateurs lipidiques de l’inflammation. Leur voie de dégradation principale est leur hydrolyse en acide arachidonique (AA), qui sert de précurseur à la biosynthèse d’éicosanoïdes pro-inflammatoires comme le leucotriène B4 et la prostaglandine E2. Ils peuvent également être métabolisés directement par certaines enzymes impliquées dans la synthèse d’éicosanoïdes, pour générer des médiateurs comme les prostaglandines-glycérol (PG-G).

  • Tea Seed Oil and Health Properties Fatih Seyis1, Emine
    Tea Seed Oil and Health Properties Fatih Seyis1, Emine Yurteri1, Aysel Özcan1 1Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University: Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Science, Field Crops Department, Rize/Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Tea Oil has a mild fragrant flavor that goes with anything. It’s not a heavy oil like Olive Oil, but thinner – more like almond oil. If the taste or “oiliness” of olive oil overpowers your food. Along with its mild taste and pleasant tea-like aroma, this oil touts impressive health benefits. Tea seed oil has a high smoke point, contains more monounsaturated fatty acids than olive oil, contains fewer saturated fatty acids than olive oil, contains high levels of Vitamin E, polyphenol antioxidants and both Omegas 3 and 6, but has less Omega 6 and Polyunsaturated Fats than olive oil. Health Benefits of tea seed oil are: it can be applied topically and consumed internally to obtain its health benefits, camellia oil can be used for skin, hair, has anti-cancer effects, effects boost immunity and reduces oxidative stress. Camellia oil is used for a variety of other purposes, for example for cooking, as machinery lubricant, as ingredient in beauty products like night creams, salves, in hair care products and perfumes and is used to coat iron products to prevent rusting. Key words: Tea, seed oil, health 1. Introduction Like other genera of Camellia (from Theaceae family), the tea plant (C.sinensis) produces large oily seeds. In some countries where tea seed oil is abundantly available, it has been accepted as edible oil (Sahari et al., 2004).

  • A Revealing Carbon Assessment of Brew Dr. Kombucha's Supply Chain
    TRIPLEWIN ADVISORY CASE STUDY | BREW DR. KOMBUCHA A Revealing Carbon Assessment of Brew Dr. Kombucha’s Supply Chain THE CLIENT TripleWin Advisory approached Brew Dr. Kombucha (BDK) about conducting a Scope 3 carbon inventory across its value chain. The company, anticipating their B Lab re-certifi cation process in the Fall of 2020 and with a mind on fulfi lling its business com- mitment to NetZero2030, eagerly said “Yes” to working together. THE CONTEXT TripleWin’s main point of contact was Danny Metcalf, Director of Sustainability and former Head of Business Operations. The company had begun calculating its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions the year prior and off setting those totals by purchasing carbon off sets and renewable energy certifi cates (RECs) through Bonneville Environmental Foundation. Danny recognized that a Scope 3 or full value chain analysis of BDK’s GHG emissions was an opportunity to better understand the company’s total environmental impact and to highlight activities and processes in the supply chain that could be optimized, changed or eliminated altogether. Brew Dr. Kombucha (BDK) is an 11-year old, Portland, Oregon-based consumer products goods company that serves the market through three distinct product off erings: ✓ Brew Dr. Tea Houses: zen retail spaces where customers can select hot and cold to-order tea drinks and light snacks. ✓ Brew Dr. Kombucha: bottled fermented tea sold in glass bottles and aluminum cans throughout the U.S., Canada and parts of Mexico. ✓ Townshend Distillery: a spirits distillery. BDK operates in a high-growth sector of the Food & Beverage industry, the Kombucha market, sized at 1.35 billion (US$) and is expected to grow to 8.15 billion by 2026.

Updated March 9, 2020. Issue (brief description): Assessment of kombucha tea recipe and food safety plan Disclaimer: The information provided in this document is based on the judgement of BCCDC’s Environmental Health Services Food Safety Specialists and represents our knowledge at the time of the request. It has not been peer-reviewed and is not comprehensive. Summary of search information: 1. Internet sources: general search for “kombucha” 2. OVID and PubMed search “kombucha” AND “illness” 3. Personal communication with federal and provincial agencies Background information: Kombucha Tea (KT, sometimes called Manchurian tea or Kargasok tea) is a slightly sweet, mildy acidic tea beverage consumed worldwide, which has seen significant sales growth in North American markets from recent years.1 KT is prepared by fermenting sweetened black or green tea preparations with a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), often referred to as the “mushroom” (misnamed because of its appearance) or as a “mother” (for its ability to reproduce). The floating mat is a biofilm layer made up of bacteria and cellulose that is more correctly referred to as a pellicle. The culture comes in different varieties, but is generally made up of a variable amount of Gluconacetobacter, Lactobacillus, and Acetobacter (genera of acetic acid bacteria)

  • Relevance of Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors in Multitarget Paradigm Associated with the Endocannabinoid System
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Relevance of Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors in Multitarget Paradigm Associated with the Endocannabinoid System Ana Lago-Fernandez , Sara Zarzo-Arias, Nadine Jagerovic * and Paula Morales * Medicinal Chemistry Institute, Spanish Research Council, Juan de la Cierva 3, 28006 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] (A.L.-F.); [email protected] (S.Z.-A.) * Correspondence: [email protected] (N.J.); [email protected] (P.M.); Tel.: +34-91-562-2900 (P.M.) Abstract: Cannabinoids have shown to exert their therapeutic actions through a variety of targets. These include not only the canonical cannabinoid receptors CB1R and CB2R but also related orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), ligand-gated ion channels, transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, metabolic enzymes, and nuclear receptors. In this review, we aim to summarize reported compounds exhibiting their therapeutic effects upon the modulation of CB1R and/or CB2R and the nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs). Concomitant actions at CBRs and PPARα or PPARγ subtypes have shown to mediate antiobesity, analgesic, antitumoral, or neuroprotective properties of a variety of phytogenic, endogenous, and synthetic cannabinoids. The relevance of this multitargeting mechanism of action has been analyzed in the context of diverse pathologies. Synergistic effects triggered by combinatorial treatment with ligands that modulate the aforementioned targets have also been considered. This literature overview provides structural and pharmacological insights for the further development of dual cannabinoids for specific disorders.

  • Chemical Composition and Antioxidant Activities of Leaf and Flower Essential Oils of Origanum Onites L
    ÖZER Z. JOTCSA. 2020; 7(3): 813-820. RESEARCH ARTICLE Chemical Composition and Antioxidant Activities of Leaf and Flower Essential Oils of Origanum onites L. (Lamiaceae) Growing in Mount Ida- Turkey Züleyha Özer1* 1 University of Balıkesir, Altınoluk Vocational School, Programme of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, 10870 Balıkesir, TURKEY Abstract: The chemical composition of leaf and flower essential oils of Origanum onites L. were analyzed using Thermo Scientific TSQ GC-MS/MS. Also, antioxidant activities of the leaf and flower essential oils were investigated by using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity and β- carotene linoleic acid assays. BHA (Butylated hydroxyanisole) and BHT (Butylated hydroxytoluene) were used as standards. The essential oil yields of O. onites were 1.75% for leaves and 4.25% for flowers. A total of twenty-three compounds representing 99.9% of leaf oil and twenty-four compounds constituted 99.6% of the flower oil were determined. Oxygenated monoterpenes were detected at a high percentage (69.2%) in leaf essential oil, and carvacrol (64.9%) was determined as the main compound. Also, flower essential oil was dominated by sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (73.5%), and α-cubebene (36.4%) was determined as a primary compound. For leaf oil, a high antioxidant capacity was determined, primarily due to carvacrol and p-cymene. Keywords: Origanum onites, essential oil, carvacrol, α-cubebene, antioxidant activity.

Abstract OPEN ACCESS Keywords Cannabis use is on the rise leading to the need to address the medical, psychosocial, • Cannabis and economic effects of cannabis intoxication. While effective agents have not yet been • Cannabinoids implemented for the treatment of acute marijuana intoxication, a number of compounds • Antagonist continue to hold promise for treatment of cannabinoid intoxication. Potential therapeutic • Marijuana agents are reviewed with advantages and side effects. Three agents appear to merit • Intoxication further inquiry; most notably Cannabidiol with some evidence of antipsychotic activity • THC and in addition Virodhamine and Tetrahydrocannabivarin with a similar mixed receptor profile. Given the results of this research, continued development of agents acting on cannabinoid receptors with and without peripheral selectivity may lead to an effective treatment for acute cannabinoid intoxication. Much work still remains to develop strategies that will interrupt and reverse the effects of acute marijuana intoxication. ABBREVIATIONS Therapeutic uses of cannabis include chronic pain, loss of appetite, spasticity, and chemotherapy-associated nausea and CBD: Cannabidiol; CBG: Cannabigerol; THCV: vomiting [8]. Recreational cannabis use is on the rise with more Tetrahydrocannabivarin; THC: Tetrahydrocannabinol states approving its use and it is viewed as no different from INTRODUCTION recreational use of alcohol or tobacco [9].
