Article Abstract
Du-zhong brick tea (DBT), a new post-fermented functional tea, is marketed in China for its prevention of diseases from oxidative stress. However, antioxidant compounds in DBT are not clear. Here, a novel online extraction-HPLC-ferric reducing antioxidant power (OLE-HPLC-FRAP) has been developed to screen antioxidants in DBT. For OLE, guard column is packed with DBT (1.0 mg), then compounds are extracted directly by HPLC mobile phase for HPLC-FRAP analysis without sample pretreatment procedures. Eleven antioxidants have been screened and identified, three of which are detected in Du-zhong for the first time. Contributions of eleven antioxidant compounds to total antioxidant activity are evaluated using chlorogenic acid as antioxidant marker. Results indicate that the developed OLE-HPLC-FRAP system is a simple and powerful tool to analyze antioxidant compounds from solid complex mixtures, which also contribute to the enhancement of the value of DBT as a good functional tea.

The catalytic asymmetric Mannich reaction is a multicomponent reaction which affords β-amino carbonyl compounds by utilizing an aldehyde, a primary or secondary amine/ammonia, and a ketone. β-amino carbonyl scaffolds are crucial intermediates for the synthesis of naturally occurring bioactive compounds and their derivatives. The synthesized natural compounds exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities including anti-fungal, anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-HIV, anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities.

Resistant starches with additional functionalities, such as starch-polyphenol complexes, are generating great interest due to the increasing incidence of diet-related diseases. However, preparing these complexes remains a major challenge due to the incompatible structures of many natural phenolic compounds. Herein, three protocols were compared for preparing novel amylose (AM) complexes with polyphenol quercetin (Q) in the presence of lauric acid (LA).

Ergothioneine (EGT) is a naturally occurring thiol-containing amino acid derivative synthesized by certain fungi and bacteria, with humans acquiring it exclusively through dietary intake. It has gained increasing attention due to its exceptional antioxidant, cytoprotective, and metal-chelating properties. EGT shows high stability under physiological conditions and can accumulate in specific tissues the highly selective transporter OCTN1.

Radiation dermatitis is a common side effect of radiotherapy, affecting up to 95% of cancer patients receiving radiation therapy and often leading to skin damage, inflammation, and ulceration. The pathogenesis of radiation dermatitis involves complex mechanisms, such as the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and sustained inflammatory responses. Current treatments, including topical steroids, moisturisers, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), often provide limited efficacy, primarily addressing symptoms rather than the underlying pathophysiological processes.
