In recent years, steryl esters have found potential applications in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Therefore, three hydroxycinnamate steryl esters (HSEs): β-sitosteryl sinapate (β-SSA), β-sitosteryl caffeate (β-SCA), and β-sitosteryl ferulate (β-SFA) were synthesized by chemical approach and their antioxidant activity (AA) were analyzed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) assays. The values of inhibitory concentration (IC) of each ester needed to inhibit 50% of the DPPH radical (IC = 238.9, 78.3, 290.0 µmol/L for β-SSA, β-SCA, and β-SFA, respectively) and ABTS radical cation (IC = 174.6, 106.7, 206.0 µmol/L for β-SSA, β-SCA, and β-SFA, respectively) were estimated and compared with antioxidant potential of phenolic acids. Moreover, the effect of HSEs addition in the concentrations range between 0.01% and 0.5% on the AA of refined rapeseed oil, mayonnaise and margarine was evaluated. Chemical structures of the synthesized HSEs and their concentrations strongly affect the AA of fat products. Oil and emulsions supplemented with higher concentrations of HSEs had significantly higher AA than control samples. Unfortunately, lower concentrations of HSEs (0.01% and 0.02%) did not increase the AA of fat products. However, steryl phenolates added in higher amounts can be considered as potential antioxidants delaying the oxidation processes of studied fats.

Preterm births constitute a major public health issue and a chronic, cross-generational condition globally. Psychological and biological factors interact in a way that women from low socio-economic status (SES) are disproportionally affected by preterm delivery and at increased risk for the development of perinatal mental health problems. Low SES constitutes one of the most evident contributors to poor neurodevelopment of preterm infants.

Background: Previous studies have shown that both the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and sex are strongly associated with a variety of cardiovascular diseases, but sex differences between CDAI and hyperlipidemia are unknown.
Objective: This study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to investigate the sex differences between CDAI and hyperlipidemia.
Method: We calculated the CDAI of the six dietary antioxidants using data from NHANES, explored the relationship between CDAI and the prevalence of hyperlipidemia using multivariate logistic regression analysis, and analyzed for potential nonlinear associations using restricted cubic spline.

Objectives: Our aim was to evaluate the comparative effects of sertraline and vortioxetine against stress-induced brain injury in rats.
Methods: The rats were assigned to a nonstress group (NSG), stress-treated control (StC), sertraline + stress (SSt), and vortioxetine + stress (VSt) groups. Sertraline and vortioxetine (10 mg/kg) were given orally by gavage to the SSt and VSt groups.
Sensory Characteristics and Impact of Flavanol-Rich Grape and Blueberry Extract on Blood Flow Velocity and Oxidative Stress.

Department of Biomedical and Biotechnological Sciences, University of Catania, Catania, Italy.
Background: Several epidemiological studies and intervention trials have demonstrated that grapes and blueberries, which are rich in flavanols, can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, the mechanisms of action of these compounds remain unclear due to their low bioavailability.
Objective: This study aimed to characterize the sensory properties, blood flow velocity, and oxidative stress of a polyphenol rich grape and blueberry extract (PEGB) containing approximately 16% flavanols (11% monomers and 4% dimers).
