Moderate Champagne consumption promotes an acute improvement in acute endothelial-independent vascular function in healthy human volunteers [PDF]
Epidemiological studies have suggested an inverse correlation between red wine consumption and the incidence of CVD. However, Champagne wine has not been fully investigated for its cardioprotective potential. In order to assess whether acute and moderate

Isolation and mapping of a C3'H gene (CYP98A49) from globe artichoke, and its expression upon UV-C stress [PDF]
Globe artichoke represents a natural source of phenolic compounds with dicaffeoylquinic acids along with their biosynthetic precursor chlorogenic acid (5-caffeoylquinic acid) as the predominant molecules. We report the isolation and characterization of a

Organic and Phenolic Acids in Beer
In a previous study we evaluated the effects of brewing on compounds potentially involved in the antioxidant defence system. The objectives of this paper were to determine organic acids and to characterize the quantity and quality of phenolic acids in four Italian lager beers.

Persistence of anticancer activity in berry extracts after simulated gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation [PDF]
Fruit and vegetable consumption is associated at the population level with a protective effect against colorectal cancer. Phenolic compounds, especially abundant in berries, are of interest due to their putative anticancer activity.

Biosynthesis of lignans. Part I . Biosynthesis of Arctiin (3) and Phillyrin (5) [PDF]
Lignans constitute a class of naturally occuring phenolic compounds, widely distributed in higher plants. They are formally composed of two phenylpropanoid units, stercospecifically joined at the /f-carbon atoms of their side chains. Their biosynthesis
