ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: This study investigated the effects of tea leaf (Camellia sinensis) extract on the quality of striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) fillets during 18-months of frozen storage (-20 ± 2 °C). Fillet samples were submitted to the treatments Control (cold tap water), CS 7.63 (C. sinensis extract solution 7.63 µg / mL) and CS 625 (C. sinensis extract 625 µg / mL) and stored for 18 months, with collections performed at 0, 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 18 months. Total viable count, physicochemical parameters (water holding capacity, total volatile basic nitrogen, peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, moisture and pH), sensory properties and color measurement were evaluated. Results showed that fillets treated with C.a sinensis extracts slightly reduced lipid oxidation, inhibited bacterial growth and improved sensory properties compared to untreated samples, without causing significant changes in the other quality indicators. The findings indicated that the green tea leaf extract immersion treatments, contributed to the improved quality preservation of striped catfish fillets during frozen storage.
RESUMO: O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar os efeitos do extrato de folhas de chá verde (Camellia sinensis) na qualidade de filés de bagre listrado (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) durante 18 meses de armazenamento congelado (-20 ± 2 ° C). O estudo incluiu três tratamentos: imersão dos filés de bagre listrado em água fria da torneira como um tratamento de controle, em solução de extrato de Camellia sinensis 7,63 µg / mL e em solução de extrato de Camellia sinensis 625 µg / mL. As amostras foram armazenadas por 18 meses e as coletas foram feitas aos zero, um, três, seis, nove, 12 e 18 meses. Os parâmetros avaliados incluíram contagem viável total, parâmetros físico-químicos (capacidade de retenção de água, nitrogênio básico volátil total, valor de peróxido, substâncias reativas ao ácido tiobarbitúrico, umidade e pH), propriedades sensoriais e medição de cor. Os resultados mostraram que os filés de bagre listrado tratados com extratos de Camellia sinensis reduziram ligeiramente a oxidação de lipídios, inibiram o crescimento de bactérias e aumentaram as propriedades sensoriais em comparação com as amostras não tratadas. Além disso, o tratamento do extrato de Camellia sinensis não afetou o pH, a umidade, a capacidade de retenção de água, o nitrogênio básico volátil total e a cor do filé durante o armazenamento congelado. Com base na contagem viável total, parâmetros físico-químicos e qualidade sensorial, pode-se concluir que filés de bagre listrados não tratados ou tratados com extratos de Camellia sinensis (7,63 e 625 µg / mL) podem ser usados por até 18 meses.

The chemical compositions of essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation of the leaves, stems and flowers of Euodia lepta and Euodia callophylla grown in Vietnam and then analysed by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were being reported. The main compounds of the leaves oil of E. lepta were (E)-beta-ocimene (24.4 percent), alpha-pinene (9.8 percent), (Z)-beta-ocimene (6.3 percent) and delta-cadinene (5.2 percent), while the stems oil comprised of spathulenol (26.0 percent), (E)-beta- ocimene (9.9 percent) and (Z)-9-octadecenamide (7.7 percent). However, ciscarane (19.2 percent), alpha-cadinol (10.8 percent), alpha-pinene (10.5 percent) and (E)-beta-ocimene (9.0 percent) were present in the flowers oil of E. lepta.

1. Emerging evidence indicates that nucleotide receptors are widely expressed in the nervous system. Here, we present evidence that P2Y and P2X receptors, particularly the P2X(7) subtype, are coupled to the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway in astrocytes. 2. P2Y and P2X receptor agonists ATP, uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and 2',3'-O-(4-benzoyl)-benzoyl ATP (BzATP) stimulated Akt phosphorylation in primary cultures of rat cortical astrocytes. BzATP induced Akt phosphorylation in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, similar to the effect of BzATP on Akt phosphorylation in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells stably transfected with the rat P2X(7) receptor. Activation was maximal at 5 - 10 min and was sustained for 60 min; the EC(50) for BzATP was approximately 50 microM. In rat cortical astrocytes, the positive effect of BzATP on Akt phosphorylation was independent of glutamate release. 3. The effect of BzATP on Akt phosphorylation in rat cortical astrocytes was significantly reduced by the P2X(7) receptor antagonist Brilliant Blue G and the P2X receptor antagonist iso-pyridoxal-5'-phosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid, but was unaffected by trinitrophenyl-ATP, oxidized ATP, suramin and reactive blue 2. 4. Results with specific inhibitors of signal transduction pathways suggest that extracellular and intracellular calcium, PI3K and a Src family kinase are involved in the BzATP-induced Akt phosphorylation pathway. 5. In conclusion, our data indicate that stimulation of astrocytic P2X(7) receptors, as well as other P2 receptors, leads to Akt activation. Thus, signaling by nucleotide receptors in astrocytes may be important in several cellular downstream effects related to the Akt pathway, such as cell cycle and apoptosis regulation, protein synthesis, differentiation and glucose metabolism.
