AO can seriously impair the psychosocial well-being of the affected individuals; however, no causal therapy has been established for it other than surgical treatment. Recent studies have revealed that human ATP-binding cassette transporter C11 (ABCC11) is an AO risk factor when it is expressed in the axillary apocrine glands—the sources of the offensive odors. Hence, identifying safe ways to inhibit ABCC11 may offer a breakthrough in treating AO. We herein screened for ABCC11-inhibitory activities in 34 natural products derived from plants cultivated for human consumption using an in vitro assay system to measure the ABCC11-mediated transport of radiolabeled dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S—an ABCC11 substrate).

    274 Combined Proceedings International Plant Propagators’ Society, Volume 54, 2004 Traditional Japanese Vegetables: An Outline of Their Research and Development in New Zealand© J. M. Follett and J. A. Douglas New Zealand Institute for Crop and Food Research Ltd, Ruakura Research Institute, Hamilton, New Zealand INTRODUCTION The 1996 census identifi ed New Zealand as a country with a wide ethnic mix with peoples from Europe, the Pacifi c Islands, and Asia (Anon 2000). The Asian popula- tion, which is approximately 5% of New Zealand’s total of just over 4 million, is giv- ing the people as a whole an increasing awareness of Asian cuisine and Japanese food styles in particular. For example in Hamilton, New Zealand’s largest inland city of 120,000 people, the number of Japanese restaurants has increased by 80% in the last 10 years. The increase in popularity of Japanese cuisine in New Zealand has resulted in a growing awareness and demand for the produce associated with that food style. At present many of the specialty food items such as wasabi and myoga ginger are imported as a processed product but as demand grows so too does the requirement for fresh rather than processed product. This has tied in well with Crop & Food Research’s new crops programme which has evaluated a range of specialist vegetables, well known in Japan as specialist vegetables and spices but relatively unknown in New Zealand, in a market-led ap- proach to new crop research (Douglas, 1992a; Douglas, 1992b) with many of the crops evaluated being suited to production for supply to Japan during the Japanese off-season.
