Paraoxonase inhibits high-density lipoprotein oxidation and preserves its functions. A possible peroxidative role for paraoxonase.

TL;DR: It is concluded that HDL-associated PON possesses peroxidase-like activity that can contribute to the protective effect of PON against lipoprotein oxidation, and may be a major contributor to the antiatherogenicity of this lipop Protein.

Review of Pharmacological Effects of Glycyrrhiza sp. and its Bioactive Compounds
TL;DR: This review summarizes the phytochemical, pharmacological and pharmacokinetics data, together with the clinical and adverse effects of licorice and its bioactive components.

Total antioxidant capacity as a tool to assess redox status: critical view and experimental data
TL;DR: The measure of antioxidant capacity (AC) considers the cumulative action of all the antioxidants present in plasma and body fluids, thus providing an integrated parameter rather than the simple sum of measurable antioxidants.

Antioxidant assays for plant and food components.
TL;DR: In this review, assays used recently were selected for extended discussion, including discussion of the mechanisms underlying each assay and its application to various plants and foods.

Reduced Progression of Atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E–Deficient Mice Following Consumption of Red Wine, or Its Polyphenols Quercetin or Catechin, Is Associated With Reduced Susceptibility of LDL to Oxidation and Aggregation

TL;DR: Dietary consumption by E degree mice of red wine or its polyphenolic flavonoids quercetin and, to a lesser extent, catechin leads to attenuation in the development of the atherosclerotic lesion, and this effect is associated with reduced susceptibility of their LDL to oxidation and aggregation.

Microsomal lipid peroxidation.
John A. Buege,Steven D. Aust +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter discusses microsomal lipid peroxidation, a complex process known to occur in both plants and animals that involves the formation and propagation of lipid radicals, the uptake of oxygen, a rearrangement of the double bonds in unsaturated lipids, and the eventual destruction of membrane lipids.

Rapid chromatographic technique for preparative separations with moderate resolution
Abstract: (11) Potassium ferricyanide has previously been used to convert w'c-1,2-dicarboxylate groups to double bonds. See, for example, L. F. Fieser and M. J. Haddadln, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 86, 2392 (1964). The oxidative dldecarboxylation of 1,2-dlcarboxyllc acids is, of course, a well-known process. See Inter alia (a) C. A. Grob, M. Ohta, and A. Weiss, Helv. Chim. Acta, 41, 1911 (1958); and (b) E. N. Cain, R. Vukov, and S. Masamune, J. Chem. Soc. D, 98 (1969).
