Inhibition mechanism of ferulic acid against α-amylase and α-glucosidase

TL;DR: The inhibitory mechanisms of ferulic acid against α-amylase and α-glucosidase were investigated by enzyme kinetic analysis, circular dichroism, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence quenching and molecular docking to provide a theoretical basis for the designing of novel functional foods with ferulic Acid.

Changes in gut microbiota control metabolic endotoxemia-induced inflammation in high-fat diet-induced obesity and diabetes in mice

TL;DR: It is found that changes of gut microbiota induced by an antibiotic treatment reduced metabolic endotoxemia and the cecal content of LPS in both high-fat–fed and ob/ob mice, demonstrating that changes in gut microbiota controls metabolic endotoxinemia, inflammation, and associated disorders by a mechanism that could increase intestinal permeability.

Assays for hydrophilic and lipophilic antioxidant capacity (oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC(FL))) of plasma and other biological and food samples.

TL;DR: These methods provide, for the first time, the ability to obtain a measure of "total antioxidant capacity" in the protein free plasma, using the same peroxyl radical generator for both lipophilic and hydrophilic antioxidants.

Impact of dietary polyphenols on carbohydrate metabolism.

TL;DR: To confirm the implications of polyphenol consumption for prevention of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and eventually type 2 diabetes, human trials with well-defined diets, controlled study designs and clinically relevant end-points together with holistic approaches e.g., systems biology profiling technologies are needed.
