Novel 4-alkylidene-beta-lactams with a polyphenolic side chain were synthesized and evaluated as radical scavengers. We have undertaken a detailed study of the antioxidant activity in vitro with chemical and biological testing of the new beta-lactams and of the corresponding methyl polyhydroxy benzoates. Antioxidant activity of beta-lactams and methyl benzoates was measured with the Briggs-Rauscher oscillating reaction, the TEAC (Trolox( Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity) assay, and as ability to inhibit ROS (=Reactive Oxygen Species) production on myoblast H9c2 cells. The results were discussed with regard to mechanism and correlated with structural parameters.

Diabetic ulcers (DUs) are characterized by a microenvironment with high oxidative stress, high blood glucose levels, and recalcitrant bacterial infections. This microenvironment is accompanied by long-term suppression of endogenous antioxidant systems, which makes their clinical management extremely challenging. To address this issue, a hybridized novel gold-palladium (AuPd) nanoshell of the injectable/injectable hydrogel system UiO/AuPd/BNN6/PEG@Gel (UAPsBP@Gel) is developed.

The Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (CRP), is the aged peel of Citrus fruit, which contains phenols, flavonoids, and polysaccharides. This study aims to investigate dietary CRP supplementation on the growth performance, serum biochemical indices, meat quality, intestinal morphology, microbiota, and metabolite of yellow-feathered broilers. A total of 240 yellow-feathered broilers (1.

Angiogenesis is an intricate pathway that involves the formation of new blood capillaries from old, functioning ones. Improper angiogenesis is a feature of numerous maladies, including malignancy and autoimmune disorders. Indole-related derivatives are believed to interfere with the mitotic spindle, inhibiting the multiplication, and invasion of cancerous human cells.

Background: Increasing evidence suggests that a diet rich in antioxidants may prevent erectile dysfunction (ED), but the impact of comprehensive dietary antioxidants on ED has been little studied.
Aim: To investigate the association between the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and ED risk in adult men.
Methods: The study performed a cross-sectional analysis using data from the 2001-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to investigate the association between the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and ED.
