Polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) are almost exclusively found in the Citrus genus, particularly in the peels of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) and mandarin (C. reticulate Blanco). We studied the effects of two major PMFs, namely, nobiletin and 3,5,6,7,8,3',4'-heptamethoxyflavone (HMF), and two
Abstract: The interest towards nutraceuticals able to counteract drug side effects is continuously growing in current chemotherapeutic protocols. In the present study, we demonstrated that smoothies containing mixtures of Citrus sinensis and Vitis vinifera L. cv.
BACKGROUND
Citrus peels are consumed in the form of infusions, candy or wine, based on their well-documented nutritional and medicinal properties. This study sought to investigate the effect of some citrus peels' [grapefruit (Citrus paradisii), orange (Citrus sinensis) and shaddock (Citrus maxima)]
Epidemiological evidence has suggested that consumption of fruit and vegetables reduces the risk of both cancer and cardiovascular diseases, potentially through the biological actions of components such as vitamin C, vitamin E, flavonoids and carotenoids. Citrus species are extremely rich sources in
OBJECTIVE
To identify the chemical constituents of volatile oil from blood orange (Citrus sinensis (L) Osbeck) and understand the possible mechanisms of inhibition of colon cancer cell proliferation.
METHODS
Volatile oil was obtained from blood oranges by hydro-distillation. Nineteen compounds were
OBJECTIVE
To consider the use of aromasticks in a cancer centre in the UK: the reasons for their use, the choice of essential oils used in them and the demographics of the patients to whom they were given.
BACKGROUND
Aromasticks are personal aromatherapy inhaler devices, used in this hospital by the
Flavonoids, polyphenolic phytochemicals which include flavones and isoflavones, are present in the common human diet. It has been suggested that these compounds may exert anticancer activity; however, the mechanisms involved remain unknown. We have recently shown (Sergeev, 2004, Biochem Biophys Res
Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L.) peel is a rich resource of flavonoids, especially polymethoxyflavones (PMFs). Citrus flavonoids exert a broad spectrum of biological activity, including antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects in cancer cells. We have recently shown that individual PMFs from
BACKGROUND
Massive alcohol drinking can lead to gastric ulcer. In the present study we investigated the gastroprotective effect of Citrus sinensis peel aqueous extract (CSPE) and Hesperidin (H) in ethanol (EtOH) induced oxidative stress and peptic ulcer in rats.
METHODS
Seventy adult male Wistar
The in vitro cytotoxic activity on human cancer cell lines of sixteen commercial EOs such as Aloysia triphylla , Boswellia carterii , Boswellia serrata , Cinnamomum zeylanicum , Cistus ladanifer , Citrus × aurantium , Citrus limon , Citrus sinensis , Cymbopogon citratus , Foeniculum vulgare ,
OBJECTIVE
To quantify the relationship between Citrus intake and risk of cancer of the oral cavity and pharynx.
METHODS
Systematic review and meta-analysis.
METHODS
Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science were searched until September 2017. Search terms included Citrus, Citrus aurantifolia, Citrus
Lipases are an economic important group of biocatalysts that can be produced by some fungal under solid-state fermentation. Orange wastes are source of lipases and potential substrates for lipases production. This work assessed 19 fugal strains cultivated in Citrus sinensis cv. Hamlin orange wastes
BACKGROUND
Naringin is a bioflavonoid derivative and is predominantly found in Citrus paradisi Macf., Citrus sinensis (Linn.) Osbeck, Citrus unshiu Marc., Citrus reticulata Blanco cv. Nobilis, Citrus tachibana (Makino) Tanaka, Citrus junos Sieb. ex Tanaka (Rutaceae), and related citrus species. It
A number of essential oils derived from plants are claimed to have several medicinal functions, including anti-cancer and anti-inflammation effects. However, the chemical composition and biological activities of flower-derived components have not been sufficiently characterized. Therefore, we
Nobiletin (NOB), a polymethoxylated flavone found in sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) peel, is currently recognized as a promising anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor agent. It is believed that, by undergoing metabolic biotransformation in vivo, nobiletin is demethylated by hepatic P450 enzymes, yielding
