Synthesis and studies of calcium channel blocking and antioxidant activities of novel 4-pyridinium and/or N-propargyl substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine…
2014
The novel 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives containing the cationic pyridine moiety at the position 4, and the N-propargyl group as a substituent at position 1 of the 1,4-DHP cycle were designed, synthesised, and assessed in biological tests. Among all the novel compounds, the 4-(N-dodecyl) pyridinium group-containing compounds 11 (without the N-propargyl group) and 12 (with the N-propargyl group) demonstrated the highest calcium antagonistic properties against neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y (IC50 about 5–14 mM) and the vascular smooth muscle A7r5 cell (IC50 – 0.6–0.7 mM) lines, indicating that they predominantly target the L-type calcium channels. These compounds showed a slight total antioxidant act…
Antioxidant Properties of a Supercritical Fluid Extract of the Halophyte Mesembryanthemum nodiflorum L. from Sicilian Coasts: Nutraceutical and Cosme…
2020
The aim of this paper was to obtain different extracts from the aerial parts of Mesembryanthemum nodiflorum, comparing traditional extraction (using solvents with increasing polarity such as hexane, ethanol 80%, acetone 70% and water) with an eco-friendly technique (supercritical fluid extraction (SFE))
Bioactive peptides as natural antioxidants in food products - A review
2018
Background: Diseases related to oxidative stress and food quality decay are of major concern worldwide as they can lead to economic losses in both public health and food production. The antioxidant peptides, extracted from food proteins, can be explored as natural new drug and food ingredient. Scope and approach Antioxidant peptides are extracted from non-antioxidant precursor proteins from different origin by the activity of either proteolytic microorganisms or isolated enzymes. In the present review, the main sources of bioactive peptides will be discussed. Moreover, the current strategies to obtain these compounds as well as their health benefits and in vivo biological effects will be ev…
Proteomic Analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Response to Oxidative Stress Mediated by Cocoa Polyphenols Extract
2020
The present study addressed the protective effects against oxidative stress (OS) of a cocoa powder extract (CPEX) on the protein expression profile of S. cerevisiae. A proteomic analysis was performed after culture preincubation with CPEX either without stress (&minus
Solvent-free microwave-assisted extraction of polyphenols from olive tree leaves: Antioxidant and antimicrobial properties
2017
International audience; Response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural networks (ANN) were evaluated and compared in order to decide which method was the most appropriate to predict and optimize total phenolic content (TPC) and oleuropein yields in olive tree leaf (Olea europaea) extracts, obtained after solvent-free microwave- assisted extraction (SFMAE). The SFMAE processing conditions were: microwave irradiation power 250-350 W, extraction time 2-3 min, and the amount of sample 5-10 g. Furthermore, the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the olive leaf extracts, obtained under optimal extraction conditions, were assessed by several in vitro assays. ANN had better predic…
Screening of antioxidant potentials and bioactive properties of the extracts obtained from two Centaurea L. species (C. kroumirensis coss. and C. sic…
2020
Herbal medicines, dietary supplements, or infusions with health promoting effects can note strong consumer demand. Hence, researchers and scientists have been increasingly focusing on the promotion of medicinal plants. In this respect, the present study has the evaluation of the biological properties of different extracts (hexane, chloroform, methanol, ultrasonic, essential oil, and supercritical) obtained from two Centaurea species (C. kroumirensis (Coss.) and C. sicula L. subsp sicula) as purpose. Antioxidative activities were assessed by in vitro assays including total phenolic content, free radical scavenging assay and ferric ion reducing power. Among the fourteen extracts examined, the…
Entorn de l'origen de la teoria sociocultural: la zona de desenrotllament pròxim en la vida de Vigotsky
2015
Aquest treball presenta la Zona de Desenvolupament Pròxim (ZDP) en la vida de Lev Vigostky, com el punt d'inflexió en l'origen de l'explicació sociocultural sobre l'origen dels processos psicològics superiors. La ZDP té la capacitat d'entendre aquest salt qualitatiu, en la vida d'aquest autor, ja que rescata el context social i cultural com a part la pròpia explicació del desenvolupament personal que, en el cas de Vigostky, discorre des de l'estètica a la Psicologia emprant la dialèctica com a mètode. Per tant, el paper instrumental de la dialèctica, una formació profundament humanística i la necessitat una resposta nova al problema de la consciència en un moment conceptual i polític crític…

Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas jurisdikcija
2017
Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas piedāvātie strīdu šķiršanas mehānismi, kā arī tās neatkarība un specializācija lēmumu pieņemšanā strīdos, kas saistīti ar sportu, ir ļoti nozīmīgi, jo sporta sacensībām pēc būtības ir īslaicīgs raksturs, kā rezultātā, izmantojot Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas piedāvātās iespējas, pastāv lielāka varbūtība uzturēt labklājību un izaugsmes iespējas sportā. Tādēļ pētnieciskā darba “Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas jurisdikcija” mērķis ir izpētīt Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas jurisdikciju un secināt trūkumus, kas saistīti ar Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas jurisdikcijas noteikšanu. Lai gūtu ieskatu Sporta arbitrāžas tiesas praksē darba tēmas ietvaros, galvenokārt tika izmantota ārzemju literatūra …
Lensless object scanning holography for two-dimensional mirror-like and diffuse reflective objects
2013
Recently proposed lensless object scanning holography (LOSH) [Opt. Express 20, 9382 (2012)] is a fully lensless method capable of improving the image quality in digital Fourier holography applied to one-dimensional (1D) reflective objects and it involves a very simplified experimental setup. LOSH is based on the recording and digital postprocessing of a set of digital lensless Fourier transform holograms, which finally results in a synthetic image with improved resolution, field-of-view (FOV), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and depth of field. In this paper, LOSH is extended to the cases of two-dimensional (2D) mirror-like and 1D diffuse-based objects. For 2D mirror-like objects, the experime…
