The Effects of a Mixture of Brown and Black Rice on Lipid Profiles and Antioxidant Status in Rats
TLDR
Brown and black rice have cardioprotective effects in rats fed different combinations of grains, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances in liver is shown to be higher in rats in the order of those fed WH, WHBR, WHBL and BRBL.Abstract:
Background: The present study was designed to investigate the influence of natural brown and black rice consumption on serum lipid parameters and hepatic enzyme activities in rats fread more

Is the in vitro antioxidant potential of whole-grain cereals and cereal products well reflected in vivo?
TL;DR: The in vitro antioxidant capacity of cereals is only an approximate reflection of their in vivo antioxidant effect due to differences in antioxidant solubility/bioavailability within the digestive tract and the metabolism/conjugation of compounds such as polyphenols as mentioned in this paper.

Metabolite profiling of colored rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains
TL;DR: High-performance liquid chromatography analysis of dehulled red, black and non-colored indica and japonica rice subspecies revealed significant differences in the contents of the anthocyanins cyanidin-3-glucoside and peonid in-glUCoside.

TL;DR: The Acetone/Water was the most effective solvolytic solution for extracting free phenolics from pigmented rice, as well as anthocyanins from black and wild rice, and proanthocyanidins from red rice and the adoption of an enzymatic treatment, with α-amylase, increased the extractability of bound phenolics.

Cholesterol-lowering and Antioxidant Status-Improving Efficacy of Germinated Giant Embryonic Rice (Oryza Sativa L.) in High Cholesterol-Fed Rats
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of germinated giant embryonic rice consumption on the lipid metabolism and antioxidant system in the human body was investigated. But the authors did not investigate the effect of the consumption of giant rice on the human liver.

Human selenium supplementation as assessed by changes in blood selenium concentration and glutathione peroxidase activity
TL;DR: This review concentrates on the differences in the effects on indicators of selenium (Se) status of different chemical forms proposed for Se supplementation in healthy subjects and modifications in blood Se concentrations and in the Se-dependent glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) enzymatic activity.

Supplementation of Diets with the Black Rice Pigment Fraction Attenuates Atherosclerotic Plaque Formation in Apolipoprotein E Deficient Mice
TL;DR: The inhibition of atherosclerotic lesions of the black rice pigment fraction is attributed to the improvement in cholesterol accumulation and reduction in oxidative stress and inflammation.

Studies on hypocholesterolemic activity of rice bran oil.
TL;DR: The cholesterol lowering ability of rice bran oil appears to be due to oryzanol and to some other components of the unsaponifiable matter.

Rice bran oil lowers serum total and low density lipoprotein cholesterol and apo B levels in nonhuman primates
TL;DR: It is suggested that RBO may be an additional vegetable oil which lowers serum cholesterol levels by unique mechanisms which will require further study.

Supplementation of the Black Rice Outer Layer Fraction to Rabbits Decreases Atherosclerotic Plaque Formation and Increases Antioxidant Status
TL;DR: The inhibition of atherosclerotic plaque formation derived from the black rice outer layer fraction in rabbits might be mediated by antioxidative or anti-inflammatory effects.
