Chemical and sensory properties of a mechanically extracted, degummed and bleached oil from baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.) almonds were traced during storage. Baru oil (BO) was packed with and without nitrogen blanket and stored for 180 days. Each 60 days, fatty acids, peroxide value (PV), iodine value (IV), acidity, sensory profile and acceptance, besides overall liking as salad dressing and viscosity at initial time were evaluated. BO viscosity (65.4 mPa s) resembled peanut and olive oils. Gadoleic acid ...

Protein misfolding disorders such as Alzheimer, Parkinson and transthyretin amyloidosis are characterized by the formation of protein amyloid deposits. Although the nature and location of the aggregated proteins varies between different diseases, they all share similar molecular pathways of protein unfolding, aggregation and amyloid deposition. Most effects of these proteins are likely to occur at the proteome level, a virtually unexplored reality. To investigate the effects of an amyloid protein ...

Transthyretin amyloidosis is a conformational pathology characterized by the extracellular formation of amyloid deposits and the progressive impairment of the peripheral nervous system. Point mutations in this tetrameric plasma protein decrease its stability and are linked to disease onset and progression. Since non-mutated transthyretin also forms amyloid in systemic senile amyloidosis and some mutation bearers are asymptomatic throughout their lives, non-genetic factors must also be involved in ...

A series of fourteen polysubstituted 7-chloro-4-quinolinylhydrazone derivatives (3a-n) has been synthesized and evaluated for their activity against four cancer cell lines. Among them, compounds 3a, 3c, 3h, 3i, 3j and 3n showed good cytotoxicity (with IC50 ranging from 0.7483 to 5.572 μg/mL). In general, we observed that the presence of methoxy groups on benzene ring plays an important role in the anticancer activity of this series, especially when they are located in 3,4 (3h) or 3,4,5 (3j) positions. ...
