TL;DR: The present work unravels the insulin-mimetic effect and the antioxidant property exerted by steviol glycosides, suggesting their potential beneficial role in the cotreatment of diabetes and in health maintenance.

TL;DR: The antioxidant activity of several phenolic acids and esters has been investigated both in organic solutions and in large unilamellar phosphatidylcholine vesicles, finding that with increasing pH, their antioxidant activity increased substantially, becoming comparable to or even better than that of Trolox.

TL;DR: Methylglyoxal, a reactive intermediate of cellular metabolism, is the most potent precursor of AGEs and is strictly correlated with an increase of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: The presence of the oxidized and reduced forms of ubiquinones Q(9) and Q(10) was determined in commercial extra virgin olive and seed oils, where the amounts of alpha- and gamma-tocopherols and beta-carotene were also quantitated.

TL;DR: Assessment of specific AQP isoforms' ability to channel Nox-produced H2O2 across the plasma membrane of leukaemia cells affecting downstream pathways linked to cell proliferation indicates that AQP8 is able to modulate H 2O2 transport through the plasma membranes affecting redox signalling linked toLeukaemia cell proliferation.
