Polyphenol‐Based Functional Materials: Structural Insights, Composite Strategies, and Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 39, October 20, 2025.
This schematic representation illustrates the interaction mechanisms between polyphenolic compounds and various materials (metals, proteins, polysaccharides, alkaloids, etc.). And explains the potential clinical application value of these materials (nanoparticles, coatings, films, capsules, and hydrogels constructed using polyphenols) in the fields of ...

Direct inhibition of tyrosine hydroxylase activity by catechol estrogens.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1978
Catechol estrogens, the 2-hydroxylated metabolites of estrogens, recently shown to be formed in brain, inhibit tyrosine hydroxylase, the enzyme that catalyzes the pivotal step in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine.

Genetic Basis of the Negative Response to the Use of Triptans for the Treatment of Migraine—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
To systematize the genetic basis correctly associated with nonresponse to triptan, we revised etiological studies on Web of Science, Embase, and PubMed until 2023. We found that only polymorphisms in the SLC6A4, 5‐HT1B, and COMT genes have a stronger association with this condition. More robust studies are needed to increase this certainty.

UDP-glucuronosyltransferases in sickness and health : Studies on bilirubin and steroid glucuronidation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are responsible for the metabolism of many xenobiotics, as well as several endogenous compounds like bilirubin and certain steroids.

Dual role of estrogens in endometrial cancer

open access: yesZdravniški Vestnik, 2014
Increased local concentrations of estrogens are a well-known risk factor for endometrial cancer. Estrogens can act as mitogens via the estrogen receptors, and by forming oxidative metabolites they can act as cancer initiators.

Characterization of semiquinone free radicals formed from stilbene catechol estrogens. An ESR spin stabilization and spin trapping study.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1989
Electron spin resonance spectroscopy has been used to detect, characterize, and to infer structures of o-semiquinones derived from stilbene catechol estrogens.

Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction and oxidative stress induced by fructose overload in an experimental model of hypertension and menopause [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Metabolic syndrome is characterized by the association of 3 or more risk factors, including: abdominal obesity associated with an excess of abdominal fat, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension.

Effect of Tumour Necrosis Factor-Alpha on Estrogen Metabolic Pathways in Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesJournal of Cancer, 2012
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a proinflammatory cytokine that has been linked to breast cancer development. Estrogen metabolic pathway is also involved in breast carcinogenesis and DNA adducts formation.

ESR identification of free radicals formed from the oxidation of catechol estrogens by Cu2+.

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1997
Catechol estrogens are genotoxic, indirectly through redox cycling mechanisms leading to oxidative DNA damage and directly by formation of quinone-DNA adducts.

Environmental Pollutant Hexachlorobenzene Induces Hypertension In a Rat Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is a dioxin-like environmental pollutant, widely distributed in the environment. New research links exposure to high levels of persistent organic environmental toxicants to cardiovascular disease, however little is known about the
