Free radicals are chemical species with one or more mismatched electrons that generally damage multiple cellular components, whereas antioxidants are reducing molecules that neutralize free radicals by donating an electron. Oxidative stress can lead to a wide range of biological effects: adaptation, by upregulating the natural defense system, which may protect, completely or in part, against cellular damage; tissue injury, by damaging all molecular targets (DNA, proteins, lipids, cell membranes, and several enzymes); cell death, by activating the processes of necrosis and apoptosis. However, accumulating evidence implicates that free radicals, under physiological and pathological conditions, are able to regulate several signaling pathways, affecting a variety of cellular processes, such as proliferation, metabolism, differentiation, survival, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory response, iron homeostasis, and DNA damage response. In few words, the generation of ROS, within certain boundaries, is essential to maintain cellular homeostasis. This new

  • The Role of Aerobic and Anaerobic Training Programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and Chosen Physiological Variables
    Journal of Human Kinetics volume 35/2012, 69-79 DOI:10.2478/v10078-012-0080-y 69 Section II- Exercise Physiology & Sports Medicine The Role of Aerobic and Anaerobic Training Programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and Chosen Physiological Variables by Mohammed Nader Shalaby1, Mohammed Saad2, Samy Akar2, Mubarak Abdelreda Ali Reda3, Ahmed Shalgham2 Exercise is one of the most powerful non-pharmacological strategies, which can affect nearly all cells and organs in the body. Changes in the behavior of adult stem cells have been shown to occur in response to exercise. Exercise may act on regenerative potential of tissues by altering the ability to generate new stem cells and differentiated cells that are able to carry out tissue specific functions. The purpose of this study was to reveal the role of aerobic and anaerobic training programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and chosen physiological variables. Twenty healthy male athletes aged 18-24 years were recruited for this study. Healthy low active males and BMI matched participants (n=10) aged 20-22 years were recruited as controls. Aerobic and anaerobic training programs for 12 weeks were conducted. VO2max pulse observation was carried out using the Astrand Rhyming protocol. RBCs, WBCs, HB and hematocrit were estimated using a coulter counter, lactate by the Accusport apparatus, CD34+ stem cells by flow cytometry. VO2max was increased significantly in case of the aerobic training program compared to anaerobic one (62±2.2 ml/kg/min vs. 54±2.1 ml/kg/min). Haemotological values increased significantly in the anaerobic program when compared to the aerobic one, RBCs (5.3±0.3 and 4.9±0.2 mln/ul), WBCs (6.6±0.5 and 6.1±0.4 thous/ul), HB (15.4±0.4 and 14.2±0.5 g/de), Hematocrit (4.6±1.2 and 4.4±1.1 %), CD34+ stem cells count increased significantly in case of the anaerobic program compared to the aerobic (251.6±21.64 and 130±14.61) and sedentary one (172±24.10).

Yours sincerely, Natalie d’Avila Stability of ultra-high temperature (UHT) processed beverages infused with white tea (Camellia sinensis) and grape seed (Vitis vinifera) extracts A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Food Technology Massey University Albany, New Zealand Natalie d’Avila 2013 Abstract Camellia sinensis and grape seed extracts have been associated with health benefits due to their high phenolic content. White tea, derived from young buds and leaves of Camellia sinensis, is high in catechins. Grape seeds are also high in catechins, as well as gallic acid and proanthocyanidins. In addition, it has been suggested that grape phenolics may interact synergistically with Camellia sinensis extracts, increasing their biological activities. Although white tea and grape seed extracts can be easily incorporated into beverages, the impact of processing conditions on the stability of bioactive compounds ought to be considered when developing functional beverages. The stability of white tea and grape seed phenolics can be affected by processing and storage conditions, such as temperature, pH and beverage ingredients. Catechins may undergo changes through epimerisation, oxidation and polymerisation, altering the chemical profile of the finished product.

  • Prevention of Iron-Polyphenol Complex Formation in Iron Fortified Tea
    Prevention of Iron-Polyphenol Complex Formation in Iron Fortified Tea by Elisa June Teresa McGee This dissertation is submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Elisa June Teresa McGee 2017 Prevention of Iron-Polyphenol Complex Formation in Iron Fortified Tea Elisa McGee Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto 2017 Abstract The fortification of black tea with iron has the potential to reduce the prevalence of iron deficiency in the developing world. Tea is an ideal vehicle for food fortification because it is centrally processed, is the most consumed beverage globally, aside from water, and is consumed in regular quantities by those of all socioeconomic strata in many regions. Unfortunately polyphenolic compounds present in tea, which are responsible for colour and flavour, form complexes with iron which reduce the bioavailability of both compounds and cause strong unattractive colour development. The objective of this study was to develop a technique for the fortification of tea with iron such that these complexes do not form. A spectrophotometric method was developed and validated for the quantification of iron-polyphenol complex formation. Iron-polyphenol complex formation was further investigated with a variety of iron sources, temperatures, and polyphenol concentrations using a gallic acid model system and tea extract. Analysis and modeling of iron-polyphenol complex formation prompted the investigation of predicted inhibitors, specifically reducing and chelating agents. Reducing agents were able to hinder iron complex formation at pH 5 (the pH of brewed tea) but not at pH 7 (an approximation of the small intestine’s pH).

Fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts can accumulate bioactive secondary metabolites with health-promoting properties, including the potent antioxidant activities of phenolic compounds. Several in vitro assays have been developed to measure the polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of plant extracts, e.g., the simple and highly popular Folin-Ciocalteu (FC) assay. However, the literature contains a number of different descriptions of the assay and it is unclear whether the assay measures the polyphenol content or reducing capacity of the sample. To determine the influence of phenolic structures on the outcome of the FC assay, we tested phenols representing different subgroups (phenolic acids, flavonols, flavanols, dihydrochalcones and flavanones).

Extract to Fortify the Green Tea Drink Enchanced Antioxidant Activity. Rufnia A. Afifah1 and Chutamat Niwat2* 1Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Bogor Agricultural University, Bogor, Indonesia 2Food Technology Program, School of Agro-Industry, Mae Fah Luang University, Chiang Rai 57100, Thailand *Correspondenk author : [email protected] Abstract Mangosteen pericarp and tea contain high polyphenol content that has disease preventive properties. This study aimed to utilize mangosteen pericarp for producing added-value product, to evaluate polyphenols stability in green tea drink with mangosteen pericarp extract, and to evaluate the effect of citric acid to the polyphenols stability in green tea drink with mangosteen pericarp extract. Mangosteen pericarp was hot air dried at 50ºC until the moisture content reached 7.43±0.10%. Dried mangosteen pericarp was soaked in distilled water, then the total polyphenol content, DPPH, and FRAP of the extracted solution were analyzed. The extract was added into green tea drink at seven different concentrations (0.1-0.7%). The optimum concentration into green tea was evaluated by sensory test, and then it was mixed with gradual concentrations of citric acid (0.06, 0.1, and 0.2%). The results showed that the total phenolic compound, DPPH and FRAP of the extract were 127.39±1.19 mg GAE/ml sample, 44.92±0.68 mmol TE/ml sample, and 21.49±0.13 mM asorbic acid/ml sample, respectively.
