Linden (Tilia cordata) associated bumble bee mortality : metabolomic analysis of nectar and bee muscle

Creator:: Lande, Claire, Rao, Sujaya, Morre, Jeffrey T., Galindo, Gracie, Kirby, Julie, Reardon, Patrick N., Bobe, Gerd, and Stevens, Jan Frederik
Abstract:: Linden (Tilia spp.), a profusely flowering temperate tree that provides bees with vital pollen and nectar, has been associated with bumble bee (Bombus spp.) mortality in Europe and North America. Bee deaths have been attributed, with inadequate evidence, to toxicity from mannose in nectar or starvation due to low nectar...

Investigation of Procyanidins Used in Botanical Dietary Supplements

Creator:: Rue, Emily A.
Abstract:: Polyphenolic compounds found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts and grains, are an integral part of the human diet. Within polyphenols, proanthocyanidins are referred to as condensed tannins and encompass procyanidins, propelargonidins and prodelphinidins. Among these, procyanidins are the largest group. Recent interest in these compounds is related...

Delivering the cell-impermeable DNA 'light-switching' Ru(II) complexes preferentially into live-cell nucleus via an unprecedented ion-pairing method

Creator:: Zhu, Ben-Zhan, Chao, Xi-Juan, Huang, Chun-Hua, and Li, Yan
Abstract:: The dipyridophenazine (dppz) based ruthenium polypyridyl complexes are known as molecular ‘light-switches’ for DNA. This property is poised to serve in diagnostic and therapeutic applications, but the poor cellular uptake restricts their use in live cells. Herein, we show that the cellular uptake, and more interestingly and surprisingly, the nuclear...

Docosahexaenoic acid attenuates Western diet-induced hepatic fibrosis in Ldlr(-/-) mice by targeting the TGFβ-Smad3 pathway

Creator:: Lytle, Kelli A., Depner, Christopher M., Wong, Carmen P., and Jump, Donald B.
Abstract:: DHA (22:6,ω3), but not EPA (20:5,ω3), attenuates Western diet (WD)-induced hepatic fibrosis in a Ldlr[superscript −/−] mouse model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. We examined the molecular basis for the differential effect of dietary EPA and DHA on WD-induced hepatic fibrosis. DHA was more effective than EPA at preventing WD-induced effects on...

Human in vivo Pharmacokinetics of [¹⁴C]Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Following Oral Micro-Dosing

Creator:: Madeen, Erin, Corley, Richard A., Crowell, Susan, Turteltaub, Kenneth, Ognibene, Ted, Malfatti, Mike, McQuistan, Tammie J., Garrard, Mary, Sudakin, Dan, and Williams, David E.
Abstract:: Dibenzo(def,p)chrysene (DBC), (also known as dibenzo[a,l]pyrene), is a high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) found in the environment, including food, produced by the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. DBC, classified by IARC as a 2A probable human carcinogen, has a relative potency factor (RPF) in animal cancer models 30-fold higher...

Xanthohumol lowers body weight and fasting plasma glucose in obese male Zucker fa/fa rats

Creator:: Legette, LeeCole L., Luna, Arlyn Y. Moreno, Reed, Ralph L., Miranda, Cristobal L., Bobe, Gerd, Proteau, Rosita R., and Stevens, Jan F.
Abstract:: Obesity contributes to increased risk for several chronic diseases including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Xanthohumol, a prenylated flavonoid from hops (Humulus lupulus), was tested for efficacy on biomarkers of metabolic syndrome in 4 week old Zucker fa/fa rats, a rodent model of obesity. Rats received daily oral doses...

Potent DNA damage by polyhalogenated quinones and H₂O₂ via a metal-independent and Intercalation-enhanced oxidation mechanism

Creator:: Yin, Ruichuan, Zhang, Dapeng, Song, Yuling, Zhu, Ben-Zhan, and Wang, Hailin
Abstract:: Polyhalogenated quinones are a class of carcinogenic intermediates. We found recently that the highly reactive and biologically/environmentally important center [dot]OH can be produced by polyhalogenated quinones and H₂O₂ independent of transition metal ions. However, it is not clear whether this unusual metal-independent center dot OH producing system can induce potent...

Circadian Regulation of Glutathione Levels and Biosynthesis in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Beaver, Laura M., Klichko, Vladimir I., Chow, Eileen S., Kotwica-Rolinska, Joanna, Williamson, Marisa, Orr, William C., Radyuk, Svetlana N., and Giebultowicz, Jadwiga M.
Abstract:: Circadian clocks generate daily rhythms in neuronal, physiological, and metabolic functions. Previous studies in mammals reported daily fluctuations in levels of the major endogenous antioxidant, glutathione (GSH), but the molecular mechanisms that govern such fluctuations remained unknown. To address this question, we used the model species Drosophila, which has a...

The α-Tocopherol Transfer Protein Is Essential for Vertebrate Embryogenesis

Creator:: Miller, Galen W., Ulatowski, Lynn, Labut, Edwin M., Lebold, Katie M., Manor, Danny, Atkinson, Jeffrey, Barton, Carrie L., Tanguay, Robert L., and Traber, Maret G.
Abstract:: The hepatic α-tocopherol transfer protein (TTP) is required for optimal α-tocopherol bioavailability in humans; mutations in the human TTPA gene result in the heritable disorder ataxia with vitamin E deficiency (AVED, OMIM #277460). TTP is also expressed in mammalian uterine and placental cells and in the human embryonic yolk-sac, underscoring...

3,3'-Diindolylmethane Induces G₁ Arrest and Apoptosis in Human Acute T-Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cells

Creator:: Shorey, Lyndsey E., Hagman, Amanda M., Williams, David E., Ho, Emily, Dashwood, Roderick H., and Benninghoff, Abby D.
Abstract:: Certain bioactive food components, including indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) from cruciferous vegetables, have been shown to target cellular pathways regulating carcinogenesis. Previously, our laboratory showed that dietary I3C is an effective transplacental chemopreventive agent in a dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC)-dependent model of murine T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. The primary objective of the...
