[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Authors  Yuchen Li et al., 2020   Abstract  Arthrospira platensis (spirulina) is a cyanobacterium that mainly contains two phycobiliproteins (PBPs), C-phycocyanin (C-PC) and allophycocyanin (APC). In this study, PBPs were hydrolyzed using trypsin, and the composition of the hydrolyzate was characterized by HPLC-ESI-MS / MS. Potential antidiabetic activity was evaluated using biochemical and cellular techniques. The findings suggest that PBP peptides inhibit DPP-IV activity in vitro.  Importance for the Red Tecnomifood  The...

Parkar.  Abstract  Kiwi contains bioactive compounds with potential anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the protective effects of kiwi on gastric and duodenal damage induced by soluble aspirin in healthy rats are investigated. Diets based on this fruit manifest clear effects on the expression of genes related to inflammation, as well...

Currently, the strategy used to study the interindividual response (of a subpopulation) to diet includes omics technologies integrated with systems biology programs. However, there are still many challenges in relation to the application of these advances...
