Food Structure Modulation of Antioxidant Bioaccessibility and Gut Epithelial Protection: The Case of Bread and Pasta Made With Pigmented Wheat. [PDF]
Pigmented wheat was processed into pasta and bread and subjected to in vitro digestion. The resulting bioaccessible fractions were characterized for antioxidant capacity and used to treat Caco‐2 epithelial monolayers under inflammatory conditions. Compared with control wheat, pigmented pasta retained higher antioxidant activity and improved intestinal ...

Protective Effect of Thai <i>Perilla frutescens</i> Seed Oil Against Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Induced by Cigarette Smoke Extract in a Mouse Model. [PDF]
PSO exhibited protective effects against CSE‐induced pulmonary inflammation by reducing macrophage and eosinophil infiltration, preventing alveolar destruction, and enhancing antioxidant defense by lowering serum MDA levels in a murine COPD model. These findings support the potential role as a dietary supplement for the prevention or attenuation of ...
