In vivo antioxidant activity of rabbiteye blueberry ( < em > Vaccinium ashei < /em > cv. 'Brightwell') anthocyanin extracts
J Zhejiang Univ Sci B. 2023 May 25;24(7):602-616. doi: 10.1631/jzus.B2200590.ABSTRACTBlueberries are rich in phenolic compounds including anthocyanins which are closely related to biological health functions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of blueberry anthocyanins extracted from 'Brightwell' rabbiteye blueberries in mice. After one week of adaptation, C57BL/6J healthy male mice were divided into different groups that were administered with 100, 400, or 800 mg/kg blueberry anthocyanin extract (BAE), and sacrificed at different time points (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12 h).

All-naturally structured tough, ultrathin, and washable dual-use composite for fruits preservation with high biosafety evaluation
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Jul 13:125828. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125828. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis work develops a sustainable and global strategy to enhance fruit preservation efficacy. The dual-use composite coating or film comprises silk fibroin/cellulose nanocrystals (SF/CNC) with superior ductility through a synergistic plasticizing effect of glycerol and natural aloe-emodin powder (AE) as antimicrobial agents. To confirm our strategy, two common fruit preservation materials (edible surface coating-SCA-CS; packaging film-SCA-PF) and five different fruits (strawberries, bananas, apples, blueberries, and g...

Scientific Evidence for the Beneficial Effects of Dietary Blueberries on Gut Health: A Systematic Review
Dietary blueberries enhance gut health by improving intestinal morphology, reducing gut permeability, suppressing oxidative stress, ameliorating gut inflammation, and modulating the composition and function of gut microbes. However, there are significant knowledge gaps in this field, and further studies are needed to establish the beneficial effects of blueberries on gut health. AbstractEmerging evidence indicates the association between an unhealthy gut and chronic diseases. A healthy gut comprises an intact gut epithelium and balanced gut microbes. Diet is one of the critical factors that modulate gut health by positivel...

Preparation of chitosan/Enoki mushroom foot polysaccharide composite cling film and its application in blueberry preservation
In this study, the composite cling film was prepared by solution casting method using chitosan and golden mushroom foot polysaccharide as substrates, and the structure and physicochemical indexes of the composite cling film were characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that compared with single chitosan film, the composite cling film has better mechanical properties and antioxidant properties, and the barrier of UV light and water vapor is also stronger. Due to its high nutritional value, blueberry has a short shelf life due to its thin skin and...

The signaling pathways of traditional Chinese medicine in treating diabetic retinopathy
This study innovatively considers the aforementioned processes as the fundamental unit and sheds light on the molecular mechanisms and potential of TCM against DR in terms of signaling pathways. The results showed that NF-κB, MAPK/NF-κB, TLR4/NF-κB, VEGF/VEGFR2, HIF-1α/VEGF, STAT3, and Nrf2/HO-1 are the key signaling pathways for the treatment of DR by TCMs, which involved curcumolide, erianin, quercetin, blueberry anthocyanins, puerarin, arjunolic acid, ethanol extract of Scutellaria barbata D. Don, Celosia argentea L. extract, ethanol extract of Dendrobium chrysotoxum Lindl., Shengpuhuang-tang, and LuoTong formula. T...
