Cyanidin chloride protects mice from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-induced pneumonia by targeting Sortase A

Virulence, 2022
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been developing rapidly in recent years. It poses a severe peril to global health care, and the new strategies to against the MRSA is urgently needed. Sortase A (SrtA) regulates the anchoring of many

Extraction, Isolation, Identification, and Characterization of Anthocyanin from Banana Inflorescence by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy and Its pH Sensitivity

Biomimetics
Anthocyanin is an important flavonoid with antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. This research investigates the anthocyanin content of Cavendish banana inflorescence, a by-product often discarded as agricultural waste.

Effect of breeding parents on the frequency distribution of cyanidin dominant progenies in purple-fleshed sweetpotato

Plant Production Science
Purple-fleshed sweetpotato (PFSP) clones containing anthocyanins can be classified into two types based on their aglycone composition: normal peonidin-dominant (Pn-type) and unusual cyanidin-dominant (Cy-type) types.

Strawberry Germplasm Influences Fruit Physicochemical Composition More than Harvest Date or Location

Horticulturae
Strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa) are highly valued for their colorful fruit and flavorful taste. Anthocyanins provide much of the red fruit color, and the flavor is highly affected by soluble sugars and non-volatile organic acids.

The anthocyanin‐enriched extract of Vaccinium corymbosum exerted in vitro and ex vivo antiproliferative and anti‐inflammatory activities

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vaccinium corymbosum berries represent a source of anthocyanins and polyphenols studied and tested for their healthy potential. The present study was aimed at isolating, characterizing, and quantifying the anthocyanin‐enriched fraction obtained from blueberry and at assessing its biological and protective effects against head and ...

Assessment of the Nutraceutical Properties of Wild Strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) Extracts on Human Colorectal Cell Lines

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
The study explores the nutraceutical potential of wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) by assessing its effects on multiple colorectal carcinoma cell lines. Wild strawberry phytochemicals were able to reduce SW480 cell viability by inducing cell cycle arrest and by promoting programmed cell death in E705 cells, with no toxicity on healthy colorectal ...

Protective Effects of Propolis Supplementation on Aflatoxin B1‐Induced Oxidative Stress, Antioxidant Status, Intestinal Barrier Damage, and Gut Microbiota in Rats

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
In rats exposed to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), propolis supplementation may alleviate oxidative stress by exhibiting antioxidant effects and restore intestinal permeability impaired by AFB1 by ameliorating intestinal barrier damage. Furthermore, propolis supplementation may contribute to the modulation of the gut microbiota by preventing a decrease in the ...

Obesity, White Adipose Tissue, and Adipokines Signaling in Male Reproduction

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Role of adipokines in the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis (HPG) during obesity. Obesity induces structural and functional changes in WAT, with a consequent imbalance in the production and secretion of adipokines. While the adipokines adiponectin and omentin‐1 are downregulated, the adipokines leptin, resistin, vifastin, apelin, and chemerin are ...

Cyanidin suppresses amyloid beta-induced neurotoxicity by inhibiting reactive oxygen species-mediated DNA damage and apoptosis in PC12 cells

Neural Regeneration Research, 2016
Amyloid beta (Aß)-induced oxidative stress is a major pathologic hallmark of Alzheimer′s disease. Cyanidin, a natural flavonoid compound, is neuroprotective against oxidative damage-mediated degeneration. However, its molecular mechanism remains unclear.
