Interleukin-1 beta inhibits long-term potentiation in the CA3 region of mouse hippocampal slices.
The effect of recombinant human interleukin 1-beta (IL-1 beta) on long-term potentiation (LTP) in the mossy fiber-CA3 pathway of mouse hippocampal slice preparations was investigated. IL-1 beta… Expand

Novel antioxidative metabolites in rat liver with ingested sesamin.
Sesamin, a major lignan in sesame oil, is known to have many biological activities, especially protective effects against oxidative damage in the liver. As sesamin itself has no antioxidative… Expand

Inhibitory effects of oolong tea polyphenols on pancreatic lipase in vitro.
Fifty-four polyphenols isolated from tea leaves were evaluated for their inhibitory activities against pancreatic lipase, the key enzyme of lipid absorption in the gut. (-)-Epigallocatechin… Expand

Aging of whiskey increases 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity.
1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity of Japanese whiskey after various aging periods in oak barrels was measured to evaluate the antioxidative effects of whiskey. The… Expand

Possible Role of L-Carnosine in the Regulation of Blood Glucose through Controlling Autonomic Nerves
Mammalian muscles synthesize L-carnosine, but its roles were unknown. Previously, we found in rats that the administration of a certain amount of L-carnosine elicited an inhibition of the… Expand

Dose-dependent effects of L-carnosine on the renal sympathetic nerve and blood pressure in urethane-anesthetized rats.
The physiological function of L-carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) synthesized in mammalian muscles has been unclear. Previously, we observed that intravenous (i.v.) injection of L-carnosine… Expand

Antiallergic Effects of Lactobacillus pentosus Strain S-PT84 Mediated by Modulation of Th1/Th2 Immunobalance and Induction of IL-10 Production
Background: Many types of fermented food are consumed in Japan. Although some are produced by plant-origin lactic-acid bacteria (LAB) fermentation, the physiological functions of such bacteria remain… Expand

Sesamin Metabolites Induce an Endothelial Nitric Oxide-Dependent Vasorelaxation through Their Antioxidative Property-Independent Mechanisms: Possible Involvement of the Metabolites in the…
Sesamin, a major lignan in sesame seeds and oil, has been known to lower blood pressure in several types of experimental hypertensive animals. A recent study demonstrated that sesamin metabolites had… Expand
