Abstract
Oxidation in food emulsions remains challenging to keep food quality and shelf-life. In this paper, a dual stabilization to both oil phase and antioxidant in Pickering emulsion is presented. Mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSN) were prepared to incorporate epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a typical plant-based antioxidant. EGCG loaded MSN were used to emulsify Litsea cubeba essential oil, a model oil, with olfactory investigation of the chemical stability. The emulsions improved the physical and chemical stabilization. The emulsions were uniformly stable with various parameters with one-month observation. Olfactory evaluation and GC-MS-O investigation reveal that the odors and odorous compounds of essential oil were well preserved in Pickering emulsions and much better than those in conventional emulsion with Tween 80. EGCG loaded MSN Pickering emulsion efficiently protect essential oil from oxidation. EGCG was also well retained in Pickering emulsion. This strategy could inspire new designs for food functional Pickering emulsions with efficient protective effect.

Abstract
Limonene (LIM) is a monoterpene, which is abundant in essential oils of Citrus fruits peels (Rutaceae). More recently, LIM, as a potential natural anticancer compound, has attracted major attention and exerted a chemopreventive activity, stimulating the detoxification of carcinogenic compounds and limiting tumor growth and angiogenesis in various cancer models. Twenty-six (26) articles were selected based on previously established criteria. Anticancer activity of LIM was related to the inhibition of tumor initiation, growth, and angiogenesis and the induction of cancer cells apoptosis. LIM was able to increase Bax expression, release cytochrome c, and activate the caspase pathway. In addition, LIM increased the expression of p53 and decreased the activity of Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways. LIM also decreased the expression of VEGF and increased the activities of the Man-6-P / IGF2R and TGF-βIIR receptors. These results highlight LIM as an abundant natural molecule with low toxicity and pleiotropic pharmacological activity in cancer cells, targeting various cell-signaling pathways critically involved in the initiation, growth, and chemoresistance of cancer cells.
