extract extends the lifespan and health-span of mitogen-activated protein kinase 1.

Aging is a highly complex process and one of the largest risk factors for many chronic diseases. (AM) is rich in bioactive phytochemicals with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. However, little is known about its effects on aging.

Seasonal variation of antioxidant bioactive compounds in southern highbush blueberry leaves and non-destructive quality prediction in situ by a portable near-infrared spectrometer.

Blueberry leaves (BBL) are a natural source with strong antioxidant activity, but bioactive compounds and their seasonal variation remain vague. Here, two major classes of compounds including four caffeoylquinic acids and eight flavonoids were identified in two southern highbush cultivars ("Lanmei" #1 and "Jewel") grown in China. Major bioactive compounds were discovered using an online HPLC post-column derivatization system and determined as neochlorogenic acid (NeoCA), chlorogenic acid (CA), rutin, hyperoside, and isoquercitrin.

Skin health properties of flower extracts and tyrosinase inhibitors and free radical scavengers identified by HPLC post-column bioactivity assays.

Skin health is a major concern across the world. The Pall. flower (PLPF) is well-known in China as an edible ornamental flower, that has been traditionally prescribed for the treatment of irregular menstruation and dysmenorrhea.

Anti-cyclooxygenase, anti-glycation, and anti-skin aging effect of flowers' aqueous extract and its phytochemical validation in aging.

Introduction: Kimura et Migo () , widely called as "life-saving immortal grass" by Chinese folk, is a scarce and endangered species. The edible stems of have been extensively studied for active chemical components and various bioactivities. However, few studies have reported the well-being beneficial effects of flowers (DOF).

Fast and efficient identification of hyaluronidase specific inhibitors from Ramat. using UF-LC-MS technique and their anti-inflammation effect in macrophages.

The purpose of the study was to establish a rapid analytical strategy to screen potential anti-inflammatory compounds from Flos flower. The enzyme assay was conducted to prescreen botanical extracts, in which aqueous extract (CME) displayed hyaluronidase (HAase) inhibitory activity in a dose-dependent manner with the values of 8.31, 24.

Ultrasound enhanced production and antioxidant activity of polysaccharides from mycelial fermentation of Phellinus igniarius.

In this study, a novel flat-plate ultrasound technology was developed to stimulate polysaccharides production from Phellinus igniarius mycelial fermentation. Three-factor-three-level Box-Behnken design was used to optimize ultrasonic treatment time, duty cycle time and culture time for a high yield of P. igniarius polysaccharides (PIPS).
