Biological Functions of Antioxidant Dipeptides
In the history of modern nutritional science, understanding antioxidants is one of the major topics. In many cases, food-derived antioxidants have π conjugate or thiol group in their molecular structures because π conjugate stabilizes radical by its delocalization and two thiol groups form a disulfide bond in its antioxidative process. In recent years,

Antioxidant function of fungal melanin [PDF]
Polyphenols have been implicated in the virulence and oxidant resistance of Cryptococcus neoformans. Although monomeric polyphenols did not protect against the prooxidant, plumbagin, polymeric dopamine-melanin conferred resistance both to hypochlorite and to permanganate.

Functional antioxidant responsive elements [PDF]
Exposure of human and rodent cells to a wide variety of chemoprotective compounds confers resistance against a broad set of carcinogens. For a subset of the chemoprotective compounds, protection is generated by an increase in the abundance of protective enzymes like glutathione S ...

The antioxidant functions of cytochrome c [PDF]
Low (C1/2=1.5×10−7 M) concentrations of horse cytochrome c strongly inhibit H2O2 production by rat heart mitochondria under conditions of reverse electron transfer from succinate to NAD+. The effect is abolished by binding of cytochrome c with liposomes and is not prevented by SOD.

Processed meat consumption and lung function: modification by antioxidants and smoking [PDF]
Unhealthy dietary patterns are associated with poorer lung function. It is not known whether this is due to low consumption of antioxidant-rich fruit and vegetables, or is a consequence of higher intakes of harmful dietary constituents such as processed ...

Antioxidant assays - consistent findings from FRAP and ORAC reveal a negative impact of organic cultivation on antioxidant potential in spinach but not watercress or rocket leaves [PDF]
Watercress (Rorippa nasturtium-aquaticum), wild rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia), and spinach (Spinacia oleracea) are commercial crops reported to have high concentrations of antioxidants, possibly contributing to disease prevention following human ...
