Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of Phenolic Content and Antioxidant Properties of Selected Cowpea Varieties Tested in Bovine Peripheral BloodSarah Adjei-Fremah, Louis EN Jackai, Mulumebet WorkuCowpea is an important grain legume with a dual purpose function as a food and feed resource. Cowpea contains phenolic compounds that are beneficial to human and animal health. We evaluated the phenolic content, condensed tannin content and antioxidant capacities of methanol extracts of seed and leaf of seven varieties commonly used in food and animal feed. The total phenolic … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2015 · 7,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication of Polysaccharides from a Fermented Tea and Their Antioxidant and Hypoglycemic ViabilityJun Li, Lingxian Tong, Bing Li et al.The hypoglycemic effects of tea have been extensively studied, with fermented tea demonstrating notable efficacy owing to its distinct processing methods. This study involved the extraction of tea polysaccharides from Wuniuzao Black Tea (WTP) using a water extraction and ethanol precipitation method. WTP-1 and WTP-2 were obtained by separation and purification using DEAE-52 cellulose columns. Antioxidant activity was evaluated utilizing … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 30 Jul 2026 · 655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccumulation and Effect of Manganese on Chloroplasts and Antioxidant Responses in Arabidopsis ThalianaJun Xing, Xue Yang, Cailing YuanIn this study, 5-day-old seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana were exposed to 0, 0.5, and 1.0 mmol/L MnCl₂ for 6 days by using three independent biological replicates. The results indicated that Mn content in roots exhibited a dose-dependent increase with rising external Mn supply. The elevated Mn levels led to significant reductions in the nutrient content of K, Ca, Na, and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 18 Jul 2026 · 824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAluminium-Induced Hepatotoxicity and the Protective Role of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) in Wistar RatsAnchana Babu, Rekha D Kini, Nayanatara Arun Kumar, Megha GokulAluminium is a widely distributed environmental contaminant whose chronic exposure leads to accumulation in multiple organs, including the liver, resulting in oxidative stress and tissue damage. When reactive oxygen species production exceeds the body's antioxidant defense capacity, cellular injury ensues — a mechanism central to aluminium-induced hepatotoxicity. Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha), an evergreen herb of the Solanaceae family widely cultivated in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2026 · 1,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractNuciferine Attenuates Cigarette Smoke-Induced Senescence in HepG-2 Cells via the miR-217/SIRT1/Nrf2 PathwayYun-Hong Zhao, Yi-Meng Ge, Wei-Jia Xu et al.The lotus leaf, widely used in both medicine and cuisine, contains bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential. Nuciferine (NF), an active constituent of significant importance, is extracted from the lotus leaf. The present study sought to uncover the molecular pathways through which Nuciferine (NF) mitigates cellular senescence triggered by Cigarette Smoke Components (CSCs) in HepG-2 cells, employing an experimental model where … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 4 Oct 2025 · 2,296 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplementation with Different Concentrations of Dithiothreitol and Glutathione During Cryopreservation of Semen from Large White BoarsMahlatsana Ramaesela Ledwaba, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.The study aims to compare different concentrations (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 mM) of antioxidants, Dithiothreitol (DTT) and Glutathione (GSH), on sperm parameters following the freeze-thawing of semen from large white boars. Three large white boars were selected for semen collection and the collected semen was sent to the lab for analysis. Following dilution with Beltsville thawing solution and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 3 Jun 2024 · 5,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrilobatin Possesses Protective Potentials on H2O2-Induced HepG2 Cells by Suppressing Oxidative Stress: Involvement of Nrf2/Keap1 Signal PathwayYuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang, Yaping Li et al.Trilobatin, a natural dihydrochalcone compound, possesses various biological activities. However, few investigations have been carried out on the mechanisms of trilobatin against oxidative stress. To comprehend the effects and mechanism of trilobatin on oxidative stress after hepatic injury, H2O2-induced HepG2 cells were used in this research. The results indicated that trilobatin enhanced the viability and improved the apoptosis morphology of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2023 · 5,087 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Mercuric Ion on the Oxidant Response and Calcium Ion in the Protoplasts of Arabidopsis ThalianaJun Xing, Rui Wu, Hui Yu et al.As a non-essential element for plant growth and development, the heavy metal mercury (Hg) has significant toxicity to plants. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mercuric ion (Hg2+) on the oxidant response and calcium ion (Ca2+) in the protoplasts of Arabidopsis thaliana.
