Regular consumption of fruits and vegetables has been consistently shown to be associated with health-promoting. These properties are assigned to several classes of phytochemical, including phenolic compounds. Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells multiple factors, and it is suggested that phenolic compounds can act in differen…
The insertion of fruits from native species in the market can enhance the socio-economic development of the region, in addition to valuing Brazilian biodiversity. The fruits of native passion fruit are rich in bioactive compounds associated with the reduction of the incidence of obesity-associated comorbidities. Our research group has demonstrated that the fruits from P. tenuifila, a pass…
The oxidative stress has been implicated in a wide variety of chronic disease development. In ²-pancreatic cells, oxidative stress can lead to impaired cellular function, such as insulin synthesis and secretion, and also can induce apoptosis. Visitinin A and anthocyanins are the main pigments responsible for the color of the aged wine. Vitisin A is a pyranonthocyanin resulting from the co…
Insulin resistance is characterized by low insulin response in peripheral tissues, oxidative stress and the inflammatory state in several tissues, including pancreatic tissue, which leads to impairment of function, such as insulin synthesis and secretion. Cholesterol is one of the trigger of the oxidative stress in the pancreatic-beta cell, generating high level of reactive oxygen species…
The anthocyanin consumption has been associated with protective effects against several cronic diseases, mainly because of their antioxidant capacity. However, many experimental studies have shown their low bioavailability although most of them were performed with isolated or parcially purified compounds, which can impair a critical evaluation of the beneficial effects when they are prese…
Cholesterol is one of the trigger of the oxidative stress in the pancreatic ²-cell, generating high level of reactive oxygen species, which leads to impairment of insulin synthesis and secretion. Currently, the intake of bioactive compounds, such as citrus flavanones, which present anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, could reduce oxidative stress in ²-cells improving its functio…
