Blueberries Reduce Palm Oil-Induced Metabolic Endotoxemia in an In Vitro Human Intestinal-Immune Cell Model. [PDF]
Digested palm oil and LPS treatment on intestinal Caco‐2 cells results in palm oil‐induced LPS translocation across the intestinal cell monolayer and nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) activation of basolateral macrophages. Interestingly, digested whole berries reduce the palm oil + LPS‐mediated NF‐κB activation in macrophages.
