Food Compounds Activating Thermosensitive TRP Channels in Asian Herbal and Medicinal Foods J Nutr Sci Vitaminol, 61, S86–S88, 2015 Food Compounds Activating Thermosensitive TRP Channels in Asian Herbal and Medicinal Foods Tatsuo WATANABE and Yuko TERADA School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University of Shizuoka, 52–1 Yada, Suruga-ku, Shizuoka 422–8526, Japan Summary There are several thermosensitive transient receptor potential (TRP) ion chan- nels including capsaicin receptor, TRPV1. Food components activating TRPV1 inhibit body fat deposition through sympathetic nerve stimulation. TRPA1 is another pungency sensor for pungent compounds and is mainly coexpressed with TRPV1 in sensory nerve endings. Therefore, TRPA1 activation is expected to have an anti-obesity effect similar to TRPV1 activation. We have searched for agonists for TRPV1 and TRPA1 in vitro from Asian spices by the use of TRPV1- and TRPA1-expressing cells. Further, we performed food component addition tests to high-fat and high-sucrose diets in mice. We found capsiate, capsiconiate, capsainol from hot and sweet peppers, several piperine analogs from black pepper, gingeriols and shogaols from ginger, and sanshools and hydroxysanshools from sansho (Japanese pep- per) to be TRPV1 agonists. We also identified several sulfides from garlic and durian, hydroxy fatty acids from royal jelly, miogadial and miogatrial from mioga (Zingiber mioga), piper- ine analogs from black pepper, and acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) from galangal (Alpinia galanga) as TRPA1 agonists. Piperine addition to diets diminished visceral fats and increased the uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), and black pepper extract showed stronger effects than piperine. Cinnamaldehyde and ACA as TRPA1 agonists inhibited fat deposition and increased UCP1. We found that several agonists of TRPV1 and TRPA1 and some agonists of TRPV1 and TRPA1 inhibit visceral fat deposition in mice. The effects of such compounds on humans remain to be clarified, but we expect that they will be helpful in the prevention of obesity.

  • Deodorization of Garlic Breath Volatiles by Food and Food Components
    Deodorization of Garlic Breath Volatiles by Food and Food Components. Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ryan Munch, B.S. Graduate Program in Food Science & Technology The Ohio State University 2013 Thesis Committee: Dr. Sheryl Barringer, Advisor Dr. John H. Litchfield Dr. Luis Rodriguez-Saona Copyright by Ryan Munch 2013 Abstract The ability of foods and beverages to reduce allyl methyl disulfide, diallyl disulfide, allyl mercaptan, and allyl methyl sulfide on human breath after consumption of raw garlic was examined. The treatments were consumed immediately following raw garlic consumption for breath measurements, or were blended with garlic prior to headspace measurements. Measurements were done using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS). Chlorophyllin treatment performed similarly to the control. Successful treatments may be due to enzymatic, polyphenolic, or acid deodorization. If occurring, enzymatic deodorization involved oxidation of polyphenolic compounds by enzymes, with the oxidized polyphenols causing deodorization. This may have been shown in raw apple, parsley, spinach, and mint treatments. Polyphenolic deodorization involved deodorization by polyphenolic compounds without enzymatic activity. This might have occurred for microwaved apple, green tea, and lemon juice treatments. Acid deodorization involves the inactivation of alliinase at a pH below 3.6, which causes garlic volatiles concentrations to be lowered. This deodorization mechanism is possible in soft drink and lemon juice breath treatments, and in pH-adjusted headspace measurements. Whey protein volatile concentrations were similar to the control’s with lack of enzymes, polyphenolic compounds, and acidic pH as the possible cause.

In this study, we hypothesized that crude garlic can prevent iron-mediated oxidative stress in a rat model of nutritional iron overload, and we used an in vitro model to confirm the results. For the in vivo studies, rats received a basal diet supplemented with or without carbonyl iron (3%) and were fed distilled water or garlic solution (1g/kg body weight) by gavage for 3 weeks. The presence of both garlic and iron led to a 2-fold increase in plasma iron and a 50% increase in liver iron as compared with iron alone. However, garlic did not offer any protection against iron-induced oxidative stress. Duodenal divalent metal transporter-1 mRNA expression was fully repressed by iron and by the combined treatments but was also reduced by garlic alone.

Abstract: The endothelium controls vascular homeostasis through a delicate balance between secre- tion of vasodilators and vasoconstrictors. The loss of physiological homeostasis leads to endothelial dysfunction, for which inflammatory events represent critical determinants. In this context, ther- apeutic approaches targeting inflammation-related vascular injury may help for the treatment of cardiovascular disease and a multitude of other conditions related to endothelium dysfunction, including COVID-19. In recent years, within the complexity of the inflammatory scenario related to loss of vessel integrity, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has aroused great interest due to its importance in different signaling pathways at the endothelial level. In this review, we discuss the effects of H2S, a molecule which has been reported to demonstrate anti-inflammatory activity, in addition to Citation: Gorini, F.; Del Turco, S.; many other biological functions related to endothelium and sulfur-drugs as new possible therapeutic Sabatino, L.; Gaggini, M.; Vassalle, C. options in diseases involving vascular pathobiology, such as in SARS-CoV-2 infection.
