Blueberry Anthocyanins Extract Attenuates Acrylamide-Induced Oxidative Stress and Neuroinflammation in Rats.

Acrylamide (AA) is a widespread environmental and dietary-derived neurotoxin, which can induce oxidative stress and associated inflammation in the brain. Anthocyanins widely occur as natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory phytochemicals. Herein, the protective effects of blueberry anthocyanins extract (BAE) against AA-induced neurotoxicity were investigated in rats.

The modulation of Luffa cylindrica (L.) Roem supplementation on gene expression and amino acid profiles in liver for alleviating hepatic steatosis via gut microbiota in high-fat diet-fed mice: insight from hepatic transcriptome analysis.

Luffa cylindrica is a nutrient-dense vegetable with medical properties and can alleviate metabolic diseases. Numerous evidences demonstrated gut microbiota impacted the progress of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study was to investigate the underlying mechanism of L.
