Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the colon, and its incidence is rising worldwide. Hence, it is important to apply new strategies to cope with the IBD. We previously found that hydrolysate fractions (HF) and fish skin gelatin hydrolysate (FSGH), isolated from fish skin gelatin hydrolysate using ginger protease, could exert antioxidant effects in IPEC-J2 cells. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effects of FH and FGSH in a mouse model of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. Mouse were treated with 3% DSS in their drinking water for 7 days to induce acute colitis. FH (200 mg/kg) and FGSH (200 mg/kg) was administered for 7 days before and during DSS treatment via oral gavage once per day. Mouse were sacrificed at day 7 after colitis induction. The results showed that FH and FGSH significantly ameliorated the clinical symptoms of DSS-induced mice colitis, such as weight loss, disease activity index (DAI), colon shortening, spleen hypertrophy and histological scores. For MPO activity, an important indicator of neutrophil infiltration and acute inflammation in DSS-induced mouse colitis, FH and FGSH significantly reduced the level of DSS-induced hyperactivated MPO. Treatment with FH and FGSH also significantly inhibited the secretion proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-8 and IL-12 in DSS-induced mouse colitis. And FH and FGSH administration significantly increased expression of antioxidant enzymes GCLM, GCLC and GPX4 and maintained tight junction in colon tissues. Furthermore, we found that FH and FGSH significantly increased the level of Nrf2 in colon tissues, it indicated that FH and FGSH may alleviated colitis by Nrf2 pathway. Overall, these results suggested that FH and FGSH could be a potential promising candidate for the treatment of IBD.

According to a previous study, YGDEY from tilapia fish skin gelatin hydrolysates hasstrong free radical scavenging activity. In the present study, the protective effect of YGDEY againstoxidative stress induced by ethanol in HepG2 cells was investigated. First, cells were incubatedwith YGDEY (10, 20, 50, and 100 μM) to assess cytotoxicity, and there was no significant change incell viability. Next, it was established that YGDEY decreased the production of reactive oxygenspecies (ROS). Western blot results indicated that YGDEY increased the levels of superoxidedismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) and decreased the expression ofgamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) in HepG2 cells. It was then revealed that YGDEY markedlyreduced the expressions of bax and cleaved-caspase-3 (c-caspase-3); inhibited phosphorylation ofAkt, IκB-α, p65, and p38; and increased the level of bcl-2. Moreover, the comet assay showed thatYGDEY effectively decreased the amount of ethanol-induced DNA damage. Thus, YGDEYprotected HepG2 cells from alcohol-induced injury by inhibiting oxidative stress, and this may beassociated with the Akt/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaltransduction pathways. These results demonstrate that YGDEY from tilapia fish skin gelatinhydrolysates protects HepG2 cells from oxidative stress, making it a potential functional foodingredient.

In this study we used colloidal gold probes to detect the intracellular localization of colostral immunoglobulins in intestinal epithelial cells of newborn piglets.Tissues were obtained from non-suckled newborn and suckled piglets aged between 1 hour to 1 month. Samples were fixed in 2.5 % glutaraldehyde, osmicated and embedded into Spurr’s resin. Thin (80 nm) sections were etched with 5% sodium ethoxide for 5 min, washed and treated with 4 % sodium-m-periodate in distilled water for 30 min. The sections were then first incubated with blocking buffer (2 % BSA, 0.25 % fish skin gelatin, 0.5 % Tween 20 in 10 mM Trizma buffer, pH=7.4 containing 500 mM NaCl) for 30 min followed by the immunoreagents diluted in the same buffer, 1 hr each. For the detection of pig immunoglobulins a rabbit anti-pig IgG antiserum was used followed by goat anti-rabbit IgG-Au10 or protein A-Au15 probes.

The antioxidant activity of cookies prepared by the addition of sugarbeet dietary fibers was investigated in order to estimate their influence on functional characteristics and shelf-life of cookies. Treated fiber (TF) was obtained from sugarbeet by extraction with sulfurous acid (75 °C at pH = 5.7during 60 min) and treatment with hydrogen peroxide (20 g/LH2O2 at pH = 11 during 24 h). The fiber obtained was dried (80 °C), ground and sieved. TF was investigated in comparison with commercially available Fibrex®. The cookies were prepared by the addition of 0, 7, 9 and 11% of sugarbeet dietary fiber as a substitute for wheat flour in the formulation of cookies. The antioxidant properties of cookies were tested every 7 days using a DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity test during 6 weeks of storage at room temperature (23 ± 1 ºC). The obtained results indicated that substitution of wheat flour with Fibrex® in the formulation of cookies upgraded the antioxidant activity, i.e. the functional characteristics of Fibrex®-enriched cookies and could prolong their shelf-life. In contrast, TF did not increase the antioxidant activity of TF-enriched cookies. The better antioxidant activities of Fibrex®-enriched cookies could be attributed to the presence of ferulic acid.

Aim and Objective: Oxidative stress is implicated in the development and progression of many disease. Some of appropriate actions that could be initiated to taken to resolve the problem of these diseases are search for new antioxidant substances isolated from plants. The aims of this study were to study the intraspecies variations of A. verticillata and C. caeruleus essential oils from 8 locations using statistical analysis, the in vitro antioxidant properties of collective essential oils and in combinations. Materials and Methods: The essential oils were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The intraspecies variations of the essential oil compositions were discussed using principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA). The antioxidant properties were evaluated DPPH-radical scavenging activity and β-carotene bleaching test. Results: The main components of Ammoides verticillata collective essential oil (Coll EO) were thymol (30.5%), carvacrol (23.2%), p-cymene (13.1%), limonene (12.5%) and terpinene-4-ol (12.3%). While roots of Carthamus caeruleus essential oil were dominated by carline oxide (86.2%). The chemical variability allowed the discrimination of two main Groups for both Coll EOs. A direct correlation between the altitudes, climate and the chemical compositions was evidenced. Ammoides verticulata and Carthamus caeruleus Coll Eos showed good antioxidant activity. In binary mixture, the interaction both Coll Eos and between oils rich of thymol and/or carvacrol with carlina oxide produced the best synergistic effects, compared to individual essential oils and the synthetic antioxidant (BHT). Conclusion: Ammoides verticillata and Carthamus caeruleus essential oil blends can be used as a natural food preservative and alternative to chemical antioxidants.

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant property of silymarin (SM) extracted from the seed of Silybum marianum and its anticancer activity on KB and A549 cell lines following 24, 48, and 72 h of treatment. Methods: Ten grams of powdered S. marianum seeds were defatted using n-hexane for 6 hours and then extracted by methanol. The silymarin extracted of extraction components The extracted components of silymarin were measured by spectrophotometric assay and HPLC analysis. 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, phenol content, total flavonoid content, and total antioxidant capacity were measured to detect the antioxidant properties of SM. The anticancer activity of the SM on cell lines evaluated by MTT. Results: In HPLC analysis, more than 50% of the peaks were related to silibin A and B. SM was reducedDPPH (the stable free radical) with a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 6.56 μg/ ml in comparison with butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT), which indicated an IC50 of ~3.9 μg/ ml.The cytotoxicity effect of SM on the cell lines was studied by MTT assay. The cytotoxicity effect of the extracted silymarin on KB and A549 cell lines was observed up to 80 and 70% at 156 and 78 µg/ml, respectively. The IC50 value of the extracted SM on KB and A549 cell lines after 24 hours of treatment was seen at 555 and 511 µg/ml, respectively. Conclusion: Due to the good antioxidant and anticancer properties of the isolated silymarin, its use as an anticancer drug is suggested.
