Wheat gluten hydrolysate (WGH) was fractionated on the basis of the amphoteric nature of sample peptides by preparative isoelectric focusing (autofocusing). Cooked pork patties were stored at 4 and 20 °C in the dark. WGH and autofocusing fractions suppressed the oxidation of lipids in the patties. The acidic (pI < 3.0) and basic (pI > 9.0) autofocusing fractions suppressed lipid oxidation in the cooked patties to a greater extent than other fractions and WGH. Each autofocusing fraction was evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, β-carotene bleaching, oxygen radical absorbance capacity, and Fe(2+) chelating assays; however, none of the in vitro assays predicted the suppressive effect of WGH on lipid oxidation in the cooked patties. These findings suggest that the microdistribution of peptides in food systems and their interaction with food matrix compounds play a significant role in the suppression of lipid oxidation in meat patties rather than radical scavenging activity.

Background: Acute systemic inflammation affects many organs and it occurs in a wide range of conditions such as acute lung injury (ALI). Inflammation-triggered oxidative pathways together with the caspase activation seen in ALI, result in apoptosis. Dapagliflozin (DPG) is an agent that is known to have oxidative stress-reducing and anti-inflammatory effects in many tissues.

The global prevalence of Parkinson's Disease (PD) is on the rise, driven by an ageing population and ongoing environmental conditions. To gain a better understanding of PD pathogenesis, it is essential to consider its relationship with the ageing process, as ageing stands out as the most significant risk factor for this neurodegenerative condition. PD risk factors encompass genetic predisposition, exposure to environmental toxins, and lifestyle influences, collectively increasing the chance of PD development.

Exaggerated neuronal excitation by glutamate is a well-known cause of excitotoxicity, a key factor in numerous neurodegenerative disorders. This study examined the neurotoxic effect of monosodium glutamate (MSG) in the brain cortex of rats and focused on assessing the potential neuroprotective effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs). Four groups of adult male rats (n = 10) were assigned as follows; normal control, ω-3 PUFAs (400 mg/kg) alone, MSG (4 mg/g) alone, and MSG plus ω-3 PUFAs (4 mg/g MSG plus 400 mg/kg ω-3 PUFAs).

Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (XZD) is widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to explore the pharmacological effects and molecular mechanisms of XZD in improving hyperlipidemia and to provide a theoretical framework for clinical application. In this study, the signaling pathways regulated by XZD in improving hyperlipidemia were predicted by network pharmacology.

The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), which is increasingly being recognized as a leading cause of chronic liver pathology globally, is increasing. The pathophysiological underpinnings of its progression, which is currently under active investigation, involve oxidative stress. Human adipose tissue, an integral endocrine organ, secretes an array of adipokines that are modulated by dietary patterns and lifestyle choices.
