Journal ArticleDOI
The Voltage Sensor of the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore Is Tuned by the Oxidation-Reduction State of Vicinal Thiols INCREASE OF THE GATING POTENTIAL BY OXIDANTS AND ITS REVERSAL BY REDUCING AGENTS*
Valeria Petronilli,Paola Costantini,Luca Scorrano,Raffaele Colonna,Sabina Passamonti,Paolo Bernardi +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the oxidation-reduction state of vicinal thiols in cysteinyl residues plays a critical role in tuning the voltage sensor of the transition pore, with an increase of gating potential as the couple is poised to a more oxidized state.
Journal ArticleDOI
The stomach as a site for anthocyanins absorption from food1
TL;DR: The ability of grape anthocyanins to permeate the gastric mucosa can be suggested as a possible explanation of the fast kinetics of plasma appearance of anthocaranins in rats and humans as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The interaction of anthocyanins with bilitranslocase
TL;DR: The identification of a new class of bilitranslocase substrates, i.e., anthocyanins, is reported on, suggesting that bilitanslocase could play a role in the bioavailability of anthOCyanins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast access of some grape pigments to the brain.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time that grape pigments can reach the mammalian brain within minutes from their introduction into the stomach and not only in the plasma but also in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioavailability of flavonoids: a review of their membrane transport and the function of bilitranslocase in animal and plant organisms.
Sabina Passamonti,Michela Terdoslavich,Raffaella Franca,Andreja Vanzo,Federica Tramer,Enrico Braidot,Elisa Petrussa,Angelo Vianello +7 more
TL;DR: The general function of bilitranslocase as a flavonoids membrane transporter is demonstrated by the occurrence of a plant homologue in organs where flavonoid biosynthesis is most active, and its relationship with plasma bilirubin (an endogenous antioxidant) is provided.
