Increasing evidence has identified α-dicarbonyl compounds, the reactive intermediates generated during Maillard reaction, as the potential factors to cause protein glycation and the development of ...

For reasons that remain unclear, endogenous synthesis and tissue levels of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) tend to decline with increasing age in at least some tissues. When CoQ10 levels are sufficiently low, ...

By using a batch in vitro anaerobic fecal fermentation model, we have shown that the fecal microflora can rapidly deconjugate rutin, isoquercitrin, and a mixture of quercetin glucuronides. High levels ...
