Evidence indicates that some varieties of honey contain kynurenic acid (a tryptophan metabolite with neuroactive activity) which may contribute to its antinociceptive and antimicrobial properties [11]. A number of enzymes such as glucose oxidase, diastase, invertase, phosphatase, catalase and peroxidase ...
Endospores:Honey is antimicrobial in its “natural’ state. It’s about 17% water and the sugars chemically tie up the moisture, keeping wild yeast and bacteria from using it. Without ready-to-use moisture, the spores of yeast remain dormant, and an adult digestive system will not have any...
In more recent times, the role of non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) has become an area of major interest in regards to the regulation of phenotypic and developmental plasticity. As part of a larger RNA induced silencing complex (RISC), miRNAs provide sequence-specific translational repression of targe...
2.1. Honey as an Antimicrobial Agent Honey has demonstrated its efficaciousness as an antibacterial agent against both pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria, yeasts, and fungi, even against those that have evolved a resistance to a variety of antibiotics. Honey has antimicrob...
Doxorubicin (DOX), an anthracycline antibiotic, has been applied as an effective anti-cancer therapy since 1969 [1,2]. Despite its potent anti-cancer properties, the clinical usefulness of DOX in cancer chemotherapy is limited by its severe consequences on non-targeted organs, including the kidney...
Honey has well-established antioxidant and antimicrobial effects,13,15,23-30 which have been suggested as the mechanism for its efficacy in wound healing and may help to explain its superiority in this study. Buckwheat honey is a dark variety of honey, and darker honeys tend to have a higher...
Classical conditioningoccurs when an animal associates a relevant stimulus, such as food, with a stimulus that would be irrelevant, were it not for the food. The animal is learning that two things are often associated; the animal has no control over either of them. ...
In conclusion, the evidence of the biological actions of honey can be ascribed to its polyphenolic contents which, in turn, are usually associated to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, as well as to its cardiovascular, antiproliferative and antimicrobial benefits.Josè M...
