Abstract
ABSTRACT Agarwood (Aquilaria crassna) leaves are commonly used as an herbal tea for health supplements. The present study aims to develop the post-harvest process of agarwood leaves using yeast extract (YE) as an elicitor and evaluate its anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic effects. The results showed that 1% of YE elicitation for 120 min significantly increased genkwanin 5-O-β-primevoside (1.8-fold), mangiferin (1.3-fold), and total benzophenones (1.2-fold) contents over the control group. The phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity increased in maximal at 30 min after YE treatment. The agarwood leaf elicitation with 1% YE for 120 min showed a higher anti-inflammation effect by down-regulation of iNOS, IL-6, and COX-2 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and an anti-diabetic effect by enhanced AMPK-α1, AMPK-α2, and GLUT4 in L6 cells over the non-treatment. Our results suggest that YE could be a biotic elicitor to enhance the phytochemical contents and increase the benefit of agarwood leaves as a health supplement. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
期刊介绍:
Food and Agricultural Immunology is an international open access journal publishing original immunological research with applications in food, agricultural, environmental and veterinary science. Submissions describing the use of immunological techniques and methods are particularly welcomed.
The journal aims to expand our understanding of the interactions at the interface of food and immune systems including studies on:
-Development of diagnostic systems – all types of ligand-based assays, e.g. antibody, aptamer
-Application of ligand-based assays for the detection or identification of molecules of interest in food science, agricultural research, veterinary investigations and clinical systems relating to food allergy or sensitivity to agricultural chemicals
-Effects of food on the immune system
-Studies on allergy and allergic reactions
-Investigations into food allergies
-Development of allergen-free food systems
-Development of novel assay formats
-Applications of assay systems to the monitoring of food items in relation to safety and labelling
-Food quality issues, e.g. speciation, adulteration and contamination
-Comparisons between different analytical techniques
The journal publishes research and review articles and is essential reading for food scientists, immunologists and all those concerned with the interaction between food and immune systems.
