Lycopene restores the effect of ischemic postconditioning on myocardial ischemia‑reperfusion injury in hypercholesterolemic rats.
PMID: Int J Mol Med. 2019 Jun ;43(6):2451-2461. Epub 2019 Apr 15. PMID: 31017253 Abstract Title: Lycopene restores the effect of ischemic postconditioning on myocardial ischemia‑reperfusion injury in hypercholesterolemic rats. Abstract: Ischemic postconditioning (IPoC) has been demonstrated to prevent myocardial ischemia‑reperfusion injury (MIRI), but its cardioprotective effect is abrogated by hypercholesterolemia. The aim of the …
Lycopene supplementation attenuates western diet-induced body weight gain.
PMID: J Nutr Biochem. 2019 Jul ;69:63-72. Epub 2019 Apr 4. PMID: 31060024 Abstract Title: Lycopene supplementation attenuates western diet-induced body weight gain through increasing the expressions of thermogenic/mitochondrial functional genes and improving insulin resistance in the adipose tissue of obese mice. Abstract: This passive overconsumption of western diet has precipitated a steep rise in …
