Pre‐Diagnostic Plasma Carotenoids, Tocopherols and Retinol Levels, and Risk of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Our goal was to examine whether pre‐diagnostic plasma carotenoids and tocopherols are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods A nested case–control study within 4 United States cohorts, where 154 participants with pre‐diagnostic blood‐draw, were diagnosed during follow‐up with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Controls

The Effects of Enzyme Pretreatment Extraction on Lipid Recovery With Normal Phase HPLC

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increasing interest in the commercialization of microalgal fermentation‐based products, sustainable and efficient oil extraction methods have been developed for manufacturing and analytical testing. Due to the variability and resilience of micro‐algae cell walls, traditional lipid extraction methods such as Folch and Bligh and Dyer ...

Design‐Driven Production of Soybean Oil‐Based Structured Fats as Potential Substitutes for Palm‐Based Fats

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined whether enzymatic modification of soybean oil (SBO) can be tailored to produce trans‐free fats with physicochemical properties comparable to palm olein, stearin, or palm‐mid fractions (PMFs). US‐grown SBO was modified by lipase‐catalyzed acidolysis using palmitic acid at linearly interpolated substrate molar ratios (C16:0 ...

Overexpression of homogentisate phytyltransferase (HPT) and tocopherol cyclase (TC) enhances α-tocopherol content in transgenic tobacco

open access: yes, 2013
Photosynthetic organisms synthesize the amphipathic antioxidants called tocopherols which are essential components of the human diet. To increase the α-tocopherol (vitamin E) content, Arabidopsis genes encoding homogentisate phytyltransferase (HPT) and ...

Pracaxi Oil as a Potential Inhibitor of Fat Bloom

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fat bloom is one of the major technological challenges faced by the chocolate industry, caused by the polymorphic transition from β2(V) to β1(VI) crystals in cocoa butter (CB). One strategy to slow down this polymorphic transition is the addition of lipids rich in very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), such as behenic acid.

Tocopherols in cancer: An update [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition & Food Research, 2016
Tocopherols exist in four forms designated as α, β, δ, and γ. Due to their strong antioxidant properties, tocopherols have been suggested to reduce the risk of cancer. Cancer prevention studies with tocopherols have mostly utilized α‐tocopherol. Large‐scale clinical trials with α‐tocopherol provided inconsistent results regarding the cancer‐preventive ...

The Effects of γ-tocopherol Administration on Pretibial Edema in Young Women with Premenstrual Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Gamma-tocopherol is largely metabolized to 2,7,8-trimethyl-2-(2'-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (γ-CEHC), which has natriuretic activity that is mediated via inhibition of 70 pS ATP-sensitive K+ channels in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle ...

Sustainable Palm Oil Extraction and Trends in the Use of Green Technologies: State‐of‐the‐Art and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Palm oil, which is extracted from the mesocarp of the fruit of the Elaeis guineensis Jacq. palm tree, is the most widely produced vegetable oil in the world. The extraction of this substance typically utilizes the conventional pressing method, a technique that is advantageous due to its low operating cost and simplified process.

Synthesis of Phytyl- and Chroman-Derivatized Photoaffinity Labels Based on α-Tocopherol

open access: yes, 2016
Photoaffinity analogues of α-tocopherol have been prepared by substituting photosensitive functional groups at either the terminus of an alkyl chain of varying length mimicking the phytyl tail or on C-3 of the chroman portion of tocopherol.
