FUNCTIONAL foodsDietary spermidine is emerging as a substance with promising health-promoting and healthy ageing-promoting properties. Its autophagy-inducing potential has been especially well-documented. This process is suspected to be at the root of the life-prolonging effects of ...
Nevertheless, no health claims are currently authorized in the EU for spermidine or spermidine-rich functional foods. When ingested through food or dietary supplements, dosage appears to play an important role in replicating the favorable effects. Currently, there are ongoing proceedings regarding the ...
Curve data in (D)–(H) represent means ± SEM, while insets boxplots represent IQR (line at median) and whiskers show min-max range of pairwise calculated ratios during OXPHOS. (I) ATP content in head extracts from female w1118 flies fed with 2 mM SPD for 10 or 30 days compared ...
In contrast, neither the level of putrescine nor that of the other polyamines was significantly affected by putrescine treatment. Treatment with ornithine had no effect on the polyamine content of the mucosa. TABLE 2. The intestinal concentrations of polyamines after oral treatment of suckling rats ...
Spermidine is a type of polyamine that is commonly found in a variety of foods, and can resist oxidative stress, promote cell proliferation and regulate intestinal flora. Methods: In this study, we explored the effects of spermidine on intestinal health under physiological stat...
be controlled because of the possible adverse effects. The content of SPM, SPD [38], and AGM [39] in the diet is becoming an important issue. Different seeds and meats are quantitatively the main sources of SPM and SPD, while certain types of fermented foods are rich in AGM (Table 1)...
