Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of Putative Fatty Acid Transporter Genes Are Regulated by Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor α and γ Activators in a Tissue- and Inducer-specific Manner
TL;DR: It is suggested that among the three putative long-chain fatty acid transporters, FAT and FATP appear to have physiological roles, and peroxisome proliferators not only influence the metabolism of intracellular fatty acids but also cellular uptake, which is likely to be an important regulatory step in lipid homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Medical significance of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors
Joseph Vamecq,Norbert Latruffe +1 more
TL;DR: There is more to PPARs than solving a puzzle about an organelle long considered an oddity, and their medical significance goes beyond obesity too, as these nuclear receptors are now attracting the attention of many medical specialties and the pharmaceutical industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resveratrol as a Chemopreventive Agent: A Promising Molecule for Fighting Cancer
TL;DR: Low doses of resveratrol can sensitize to low doses of cytotoxic drugs and so provide an innovative strategy to enhance the efficacy of anticancer therapy in various human cancers and is believed to be a novel weapon for new therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nopal cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) as a source of bioactive compounds for nutrition, health and disease.
Karym El-Mostafa,Youssef El Kharrassi,Asmaa Badreddine,Pierre Andreoletti,Joseph Vamecq,M'Hammed Saïd El Kebbaj,Norbert Latruffe,Gérard Lizard,Boubker Nasser,Mustapha Cherkaoui-Malki +9 more
TL;DR: The identified natural cactus compounds and derivatives were shown to be endowed with biologically relevant activities including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, antimicrobial and neuroprotective properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resveratrol: Preventing properties against vascular alterations and ageing
TL;DR: The relationship with reactive oxygen species, regulation of pro-inflammatory genes including cycloxygenases and cytokines in molecular inflammatory and aging processes, and how the regulation of these activites by resveratrol can lead to a prevention of vascular diseases are shown.
