Black rice anthocyanin-rich extract and rosmarinic acid, alone and in combination, protect against DSS-induced colitis in mice 10.1039/C7FO01490B 2018-04-07 The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of black rice anthocyanin-rich extract (BRAE) and rosmarinic acid (RA), alone and in combination, on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice. Results showed that administration of BRAE and RA, a...
MALDI-TOF-MS Characterization of N-linked glycoprotein with ACE inhibitory activity derived from ginger 10.1039/C8FO00156A 2018-04-06 The ability of ginger glycoproteins to inhibit the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was characterized. The activity was monitored by HPLC, and then the crude glycoproteins were enriched by lectin-microarray and magnetic microspheres. The N-linked glycan re...
Modifications in gut microbiota and fermentation metabolites in the hindgut of rats after the consumption of galactooligosaccharide glycated with fish peptide 10.1039/C7FO02002C 2018-04-06 The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of diet containing galactooligosaccharide (GOS)-fish peptide (FP) conjugates prepared via Maillard reaction on colonic fermentation properties and the composition of gut microbiota in Sprague-Dawley rats....
Structural characterization and antitumor activity of a novel Se-polysaccharide from selenium-enriched Cordyceps gunnii 10.1039/C8FO00027A 2018-04-06 Selenium (Se) was recognized as an essential element. Animals and humans absorb and retain more organic-Se than inorganic-Se. The bio-transformation was a major approach to transfer inorganic-Se to organic-Se. Cordyceps gunnii (C. gunnii), well known as Chine...
