The effects of chlorogenic acid (CA) (6, 30, and 150 μM/g protein) on the physicochemical and functional properties of Coregonus peled myofibrillar protein (MP) through oxidation using a hydroxyl radical oxidation system (0.01 mM FeCl3, 0.01 mM Asc, and 1 mM H2O2) were investigated. The result showed that CA inhibited the increase in protein carbonyl content but did not prevent losses in sulfhydryl and free amine contents caused by oxidation. The presence of CA also increased conformational changes in the secondary and tertiary structures of oxidized MP. Oxidized MP containing 6 μM/g CA had superior functional properties (solubility, emulsifying, foaming, and gel properties), while oxidized MP containing 150 μM/g CA aggregated, resulting in insolubility and a poor gel network.

Myofibrillar protein (Mf) from silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) was incubated with glucose and maltodextrin for 0–96 h at 50 °C and 75% relative humidity to obtain glycoconjugates in different periods of the Maillard reaction.

Cadmium (Cd) is a notorious environmental pollutant known for its wide range of toxicities to organisms. Thus, the present study is designed to examine whether melatonin, a potent antioxidant, protects against Cd-induced oxidative damage in the heart, liver and kidney of rats. Cd treatment at a dose of 0.44 mg/kg for 15 days caused severe damage in all these organs. These included significantly increased activities of SGPT, SGOT, lactate dehydrogenase- 1 and 5 and ALP and levels of total lactate, creatinine, lipid peroxidation, protein carbonyl content and reduced glutathione while the activities of superoxide dismutases, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione-S-transferase along with mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, α-keto glutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NADH-cytochrome-c-oxidoreductase and cytochrome-c-oxidase were significantly reduced by Cd. However, if melatonin was given orally 30 min before Cd injection, all these alterations induced by Cd were significantly preserved by melatonin. Histological observations also demonstrated that Cd exposure caused cellular lesions, promoting necrotic or apoptotic changes. Notably, all these changes were significantly protected by melatonin. The results suggest that melatonin is a beneficial molecule to ameliorate Cd-induced oxidative damage in the heart, liver and kidney tissues of rats with its powerful antioxidant capacity, heavy metal chelating activity and competition of binding sites with Cd to the GSH and catalase.

Background:: Current study evaluated the protective potential of quercetin against lindane induced toxicity in mice brain. For investigation, mice were allocated into four groups; First group was control. Second group was administered with oral dose of lindane (25 mg/kg bw) for 4 consecutive days. Third group was exposed to quercetin (40 mg/kg bw) and in fourth group, quercetin was administered 1 hour prior to the exposure of lindane. Objective:: Two major objectives were decided for study. First was to create lesions in the brain by lindane and; second was to evaluate the neuroprotective potential of quercetin. Methods:: To study oxidative responses, level of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), protein carbonyl content (PCC), reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were measured in brain homogenates. Three key step regulating enzymes of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle viz citrate synthase (CS), pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and fumarase were also assayed. Results:: Lindane treatment significantly enhanced the levels of TBARS (P<0.001),PCC (P<0.001), GPx (P<0.001), SOD (P<0.05), PDH (P<0.05) and fumarase (P<0.001) in brains of mice compared to control. Meanwhile, it alleviated GSH, CAT and CS (P<0.05) activity. Conclusion:: Pretreatment with quercetin in lindane treated group not only restored, previously altered biochemical parameters after lindane treatment and also significantly improved them too which suggests that quercetin is not only invulnerable rather neuroprotective against lindane intoxication.

Abstract The aim of the this study was to evaluate the effects of fresh, dried and freeze-dried Centaurea depressa M. Bieb. (Asteraceae) on the oxidant and antioxidant status of the model organism D. melanogaster Meigen (Diptera: Drosophilidae) experimentally. The study was carried out from 2016 to 2019, and plant leaf extracts (0-50 mg/l) were added to insect standard artificial diets. The total protein, protein carbonyl content and glutathione-S-transferase, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were quantified at the insect’s third larval stage. Our data showed that protein carbonyl content varied from 2.70 nmol/mg protein in the control group to 59.11 nmol/mg protein in the group fed with fresh leaf extract signifying induction of oxidative stress. All extracts increased the levels of all antioxidant enzymes and decreased the amounts of total protein. Meanwhile, the group fed with the freeze-dried extract showed no significant difference in the levels of total protein and protein carbonyl content except at the 50 mg/l concentration of the extract. Moreover, this group had superoxide dismutase and catalase activities 4 to 5 times higher than in the control group. In conclusion, induction of oxidative stress indicates that the fresh form of C. depressa leaves may have potential as a natural pesticide, whereas induction of endogenous antioxidant enzymes by the freeze-dried extract suggest its potential as an antioxidant.
