The phytochemical profiles and the antioxidant potential of the NILs were characterized. The accumulation of anthocyanins and phlobaphenes contributed significantly to antioxidant capacity compared to maize lines that lacked one or both of the compounds (p less then 0.05). Pilot study showed that intake of flavonoid-rich maize diets were able to…[Read more]

stinal Vδ2 T cells may be beneficial in preserving gut epithelial barrier function and reducing chronic inflammation in HIV-infected individuals.Immune infiltrates in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of breast cancer (BRCA) have been shown to play a critical role in tumorigenesis, progression, invasion, and therapy resistance, and thereby will…[Read more]

Testosterone (T) exerts anxiolytic effects through functional androgen receptors (ARs) in rodents. T treatment of castrated mice reduces anxiety-like behavior in wild-type (WT) males, but not males with a spontaneous mutation that renders AR dysfunctional (testicular feminization mutation, Tfm). Using Cre-LoxP technology we created males carrying…[Read more]
