Journal ArticleDOI
Novel insights of dietary polyphenols and obesity.
Shu Wang,Naima Moustaid-Moussa,Lixia Chen,Huanbiao Mo,Anuradha Shastri,Rui Su,Priyanka Bapat,In Sook Kwun,Chwan-Li Shen +8 more
TL;DR: Animal studies strongly suggest that commonly consumed polyphenols described in this review have a pronounced effect on obesity as shown by lower body weight, fat mass and triglycerides through enhancing energy expenditure and fat utilization, and modulating glucose hemostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing Graphene-TiO2 Nanowire and Graphene-TiO2 Nanoparticle Composite Photocatalysts
TL;DR: It was found that NWs, in comparison with NPs, have more uniform dispersion on graphene with less agglomeration, resulting in more direct contact between TiO(2) and graphene, and hence further improved electron-hole pairs (EHPs) separation and transportation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of nanotechnology in improving bioavailability and bioactivity of diet-derived phytochemicals.
TL;DR: A review of the commonly used biocompatible and biodegradable nanoparticles including liposomes, emulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, micelles and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Omega-3 fatty acids in obesity and metabolic syndrome: a mechanistic update.
Kembra Albracht-Schulte,Nishan S. Kalupahana,Nishan S. Kalupahana,Latha Ramalingam,Shu Wang,Shaikh M. Rahman,Jacalyn J. Robert-McComb,Naima Moustaid-Moussa +7 more
TL;DR: Proposed mechanisms by which n-3 PUFAs may work to improve body composition and counteract obesity-related metabolic changes include modulating lipid metabolism; regulating adipokines, such as adiponectin and leptin; alleviating adipose tissue inflammation; promoting adipogenesis and altering epigenetic mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quercetin-nanostructured lipid carriers: Characteristics and anti-breast cancer activities in vitro
TL;DR: Q-NLC dramatically enhanced the anti-cancer activities of Q, which were associated with enhanced Q solubility and stability, and increased Q content in those cancer cells.
