Effects of Green Tea and Epigallocatechin Gallate on the Transport of Folic Acid by the Proton‐Coupled Folate Transporter

open access: yesJournal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Folic acid (FA) is a water‐soluble vitamin absorbed in the small intestine through the proton‐coupled folate transporter (PCFT) when taken orally. In this study, we investigated the effect of green tea on PCFT‐mediated FA transport. Green tea inhibited FA uptake by PCFT in a concentration‐dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 6.1%.

Humulus lupulus L.: Evaluation of Phytochemical Profile and Activation of Bitter Taste Receptors to Regulate Appetite and Satiety in Intestinal Secretin Tumor Cell Line (STC‐1 Cells)

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 68, Issue 21, November 2024.
Hop inflorescence extract causes the release of anorexigenic hormones from intestinal secretin tumor cell line (STC‐1). This effect is due to the interaction with bitter receptors resulting in the activation of mediators involved in the signal transduction process in a mechanism dependent on intracellular calcium. Scope Inflorescences of the female hop

Humulone Modulation of GABAA Receptors and Its Role in Hops Sleep-Promoting Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Humulus lupulus L. (hops) is a major constituent of beer. It exhibits neuroactive properties that make it useful as a sleeping aid. These effects are hypothesized to be mediated by an increase in GABAA receptor function.

Phytoestrogens: Chemistry, potential health benefits, and their medicinal importance

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 3060-3079, June 2024.
Abstract Phytoestrogens, also known as xenoestrogens, are secondary metabolites derived from plants that have similar structures and biological effects as human estrogens. These compounds do not directly affect biological functions but can act as agonists or antagonists depending on the level of endogenous estrogen in the body.
