Abstract
Wine grape pomace, the by-product of wine making, is a source of polyphenols, metals, and organic acids, and may be exploited for the production of functional beverages. Among red wines, Primitivo and Negramaro varieties possess an interesting amount of polyphenolic compounds and other chemicals. Consequently, study of the biological activity of Primitivo and Negramaro vinification by-products is of great interest as well as optimizing the extraction of its bioactive components. In order to stabilize the grape pomace, different methods of drying grape pomace were tested. After stabilization of the pomace, the grape skins were manually separated from the seeds and any woody parts. The chemical characterizations of acidified alcoholic (methanol/ethanol) and water extracts and either microwave-assisted or ultrasound-assisted extractions of separated grape skins were compared. Besides that, the in vitro antioxidant activity of wine pomace skin extracts was also investigated as Trolox equivalents antioxidant capacity (TEAC) and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). Overall, the alcoholic extractions were found to be the most effective for recovering phenolic compounds, when compared with those in water. Ultrasound- and microwave-assisted extraction of pomace skin using acidified water allowed the highest TEAC value. Taking into account the water extraction result, in order to reuse grape pomace skins to produce a functional beverage, we utilized them in combination with black tea, karkadè (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.), or rooibos (Aspalathus linearis Burm.) to produce an infusion. The combination of grape skins and black tea showed the highest ratio of total phenol content to antioxidant activity. Moreover, skin isolated from pomace, with or without black tea infusions, were shown to have anti-inflammatory capacity in human cell culture. Our results raise the value of grape skin pomace as a rich source of bioactive compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity and suggest its exploitation as an ingredient for functional beverages.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The evaluation of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) emitted by human body offers a unique tool to set up new non-invasive devices for early diagnosis and long-lasting monitoring of most human diseases. However, their cellular origin and metabolic fate have not been completely elucidated yet, thus limiting their clinical application. Endothelium acts as an interface between blood and surrounding tissues. As such, it adapts its physiology in response to different environmental modifications thus playing a role in the pathogenesis of many metabolic and inflammatory diseases. OBJECTIVES Since endothelium specifically reshapes its physiologic functions upon environmental changes the objective of this study was to evaluate if and how pro-inflammatory stimuli affect VOC metabolism in endothelial cell in culture. METHODS Gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection was applied to profile VOCs in the headspace of cultured endothelial cells (EC) in the absence or presence of the pro-inflammatory stimulus lipopolysaccharide (LPS). RESULTS We observed that, under resting conditions, EC affected the amount of 58 VOCs belonging to aldehyde, alkane and ketone families. Among these, LPS significantly altered the amount of 15 VOCs. ROC curves show a perfect performance (AUC = 1) for 10 metabolites including 1-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol and 2-ethyl-1-hexanol. DISCUSSION The emission and uptake of the aforementioned VOCs disclose potential unexplored metabolic pathways for EC that deserve to be investigated. Overall, we identified new candidate VOC potentially exploitable, upon experimental confirm in in vivo model of disease, as potential biomarkers of sepsis and pro-inflammatory clinical settings.

Abstract
This study investigates the effects of tomato puree fortification with several anthocyanin-rich food colorants on bioactive compound content (phenolics, isoprenoids), antioxidant capacity, in vitro biological activities and consumer acceptance. Tomato puree (tp) was added with different anthocyanin extracts from black carrot (Anthocarrot), grape fruit skins (Enocolor), elderberry fruits (Elderberry) or mahaleb cherry fruits (Mahaleb), thus obtaining a 'functional tomato puree' (ftp). The consumer acceptance (colour, flavor, taste, visual appearance) was at high level, except for Mahaleb-added ftp. Compared to the control (tp), the addition of colouring extracts increased significantly the total phenolic content, before pasteurization, in addition to the expected anthocyanin content. However, after pasteurization, mostly Anthocarrot-ftp preserved an increased phenolic (+53%) content, as well as a higher antioxidant capacity (50%), more than the other added-extracts. Consistently, against tp, Anthocarrot-ftp exhibited an increased anti-inflammatory capacity as showed by the reduced expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1 in human cultured endothelial cells, under inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
In hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP), the increase in distal motor latencies (DMLs) is often out of proportion to the slowing of conduction velocities, but the pathophysiological mechanism is still unclear. We used a combined electrophysiological and ultrasonographic (US) approach to provide insight into this issue. Twelve HNPP subjects underwent extensive electrophysiological studies and US measurements of the cross-sectional area (CSA) of several peripheral nerves. US nerve enlargement was only observed in the carpal tunnel, Guyon's canal, the elbow and the fibular head. We did not observe US abnormalities at sites where nerve entrapment is uncommon. An increase in DMLs was observed regardless of US nerve enlargement. The increased nerve CSA only in common sites of entrapment likely reflected the well-documented nerve vulnerability to mechanical stress in HNPP. No morphometric changes were seen in the distal nerve segments where compression/entrapment is unlikely, despite the fact that the DMLs were increased. These data suggest that factors other than mechanical stress are responsible for the distal slowing of action potential propagation. We speculate that a mixture of mechanical insults and an axon-initiated process in the distal nerves underlies the distal slowing and/or conduction failure in HNPP.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is now widely accepted to be an inflammatory disease, characterized by degenerative as well as proliferative changes and extracellular accumulation of lipid and cholesterol, in which an ongoing inflammatory reaction plays an important role both in initiation and progression/destabilization, converting a chronic process into an acute disorder. Neovascularization has also been recognized as an important process for the progression/destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques. In fact, vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques prone to rupture are characterized by an enlarged necrotic core, containing an increased number of vasa vasorum, apoptotic macrophages, and more frequent intraplaque haemorrhage. Various functional roles have been assigned to intimal microvessels, however the relationship between the process of angiogenesis and its causal association with the progression and complications of atherosclerosis are still challenging and controversial. In the past 30 years, the dietary intake of omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids--mainly derived from fish--has emerged as an important way to modify cardiovascular risk through beneficial effects on all stages of atherosclerosis, including plaque angiogenesis. This review specifically focuses on the modulating effects of n-3 fatty acids on molecular events involved in early and late atherogenesis, including effects on endothelial expression of adhesion molecules, as well as pro-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic enzymes. By accumulating in endothelial membrane phospholipids, omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to decrease the transcriptional activation of several genes through an attenuation of activation of the nuclear factor-kappaB system of transcription factors. This occurs secondary to decreased generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species. This series of investigations configures a clear example of nutrigenomics--i.e., how nutrients may affect gene expression, ultimately affecting a wide spectrum of human diseases.

Abstract
In a model of early atherogenesis based on cultured endothelial cells, we observed that the incorporation of oleic acid in cellular lipids decreases the stimulated expression of several endothelial adhesion molecules and soluble products typically expressed during endothelial activation and involved in monocyte recruitment. We investigated possible mechanisms for this effect assessing the stimulated induction of nuclear factor-kappaB. In parallel, we also measured glutathione (GSH) content and the activity of antioxidant enzymes after oleate treatment and cytokine stimulation. Oleate prevented the stimulated depletion of GSH without any change in the activity of antioxidant enzymes. These results suggest an antioxidant mechanism by which oleate may exert direct vascular atheroprotective effects.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, the main cause of ischemic heart disease, is a process with relevant inflammatory components, in which LDL-cholesterol, largely emphasized in the last years as a "causal" factor following the improvement in prognosis with cholesterol-lowering agents, is only one of the culprits. Despite the use of new cholesterol-lowering drugs, atherosclerotic vascular disease will likely continue to be the main cause of death in Western countries. Furthermore, the statistical relationship between cholesterol and cardiovascular mortality only explains a relatively minor component of differences in mortality among diverse countries. For these reasons, the interest in preventive approaches complementary or alternative to cholesterol reduction should be one of the main objectives of cardiovascular research in the years to come. Already in the '70s the very low incidence of atherosclerotic diseases in Mediterranean countries (Greece and Southern Italy) and the importance of the "dietary factor" in such protection were noticed. Diets for people in these countries are, among other components, very rich in oleic acid, the main constituent of olive oil, with about 29% of daily caloric intake derived from monounsaturated fatty acids. Oleic acid, besides exerting relatively minor effects on the quantitative and qualitative regulation of cholesterol levels, appears to interfere directly with the inflammatory response that characterizes early atherogenesis. The endothelial expression of adhesion molecules for circulating monocytes, induced by inflammatory cytokines, minimally oxidized LDL and the advanced glycation end-products present in diabetes, substantially contributes to the onset and early progression of atherosclerosis. In an in vitro model of early atherogenesis based on cultured endothelial cells stimulated by cytokines, we observed that the incorporation of oleic acid in total cell lipids--mostly at the expenses of saturated fatty acids--decreases the expression of several endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecules, among which vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, involved in the selective monocyte recruitment in the arterial intima. Oleic acid also determines a parallel reduction in messenger RNA for this molecule, interfering with the activation of the most important transcription factor controlling endothelial activation, nuclear factor-kappa B. Thus, possibly in concert with other more highly unsaturated fatty acids, oleic acid may contribute to the prevention of atherosclerosis also through a modulation of gene expression for endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecules. This series of investigations emphasizes the possibility of preventive interventions in atherosclerosis based on the modulation of vascular response to classical "triggers" (cholesterol, advanced glycation end-products of diabetes), an intervention strategy fundamentally different from--and thereby complementary to--those now more in fashion.

Abstract
Because oleic acid is implicated in the antiatherogenic effects attributed to the Mediterranean diet, we investigated whether this fatty acid can modulate endothelial activation, ie, the concerted expression of gene products involved in leukocyte recruitment and early atherogenesis. We incubated sodium oleate with human umbilical vein endothelial cells for 0 to 72 hours, followed by coincubation of oleate with human recombinant tumor necrosis factor, interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-4, Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate for a further 6 to 24 hours. The endothelial expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), E-selectin, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 was monitored by cell surface enzyme immunoassays or flow cytometry, and steady-state levels of VCAM-1 mRNA were assessed by Northern blot analysis. At 10 to 100 micromol/L for >24 hours, oleate inhibited the expression of all adhesion molecules tested. After a 72-hour incubation with oleate and a further 16-hour incubation with oleate plus 1 microg/mL LPS, VCAM-1 expression was reduced by >40% compared with control. Adhesion of monocytoid U937 cells to LPS-treated endothelial cells was reduced concomitantly. Oleate also produced a quantitatively similar reduction of VCAM-1 mRNA levels on Northern blot analysis and inhibited nuclear factor-kappaB activation on electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Incubation of endothelial cells with oleate for 72 hours decreased the relative proportions of saturated (palmitic and stearic) acids in total cell lipids and increased the proportions of oleate in total cell lipids without significantly changing the relative proportions of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Although less potent than polyunsaturated fatty acids in inhibiting endothelial activation, oleic acid may contribute to the prevention of atherogenesis through selective displacement of saturated fatty acids in cell membrane phospholipids and a consequent modulation of gene expression for molecules involved in monocyte recruitment.

Abstract
Dietary long-chain fatty acids (FA) may influence pathological processes involving endothelial activation, including inflammation and atherosclerosis. We have previously shown that the n-3 FA docosahexaenoate (DHA) inhibits endothelial activation in the range of nutritionally achievable plasma concentrations. The present study assessed structural determinants for this effect. Saturated, monounsaturated, and n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated FA were incubated with cultured endothelial cells for 24-72 h alone, and then in the presence of interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor, or bacterial lipopolysaccharide for an additional 24 h before assessing the expression of the vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) or other products of endothelial activation. No FA tested per se elicited endothelial activation. While saturated FA did not inhibit cytokine-induced expression of adhesion molecules, a progressively increasing inhibitory activity was observed, for the same chain length, with an increase in double bonds. Comparison of FA with the same length and number of unsaturation and only differing for the double bond position or for the cis/trans configuration indicated no difference in inhibitory potency, indicating no effect of the double bond position or configuration. As judged by Northern analysis, these latter FA also inhibited VCAM-1 messenger RNA steady state levels to the same extent, indicating a pre-translational site of action attributable to the single double bond. Thus the double bond is the minimum necessary and sufficient requirement for FA inhibition of endothelial activation. These properties are likely relevant to the anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory properties ascribed to n-3 FA, which are able to accommodate the highest number of double bonds in a fatty acid of given chain length.

Abstract
Cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) at passage 4 specifically bound 70 +/- 12 fmol [3,5-3H]Tyr4-Ile5-angiotensin (Ang) II/mg protein, with a Kd of 0.9 +/- 0.36 nM. Binding was eliminated in cells preincubated with a monoclonal antibody (6313/G2) raised against the subtype AT1 of the Ang II receptor. Freshly seeded HUVECs were positive for 6313/G2 antibody by immunocytochemistry, and such immunoreactivity was still retained at passage 4. Incubation of HUVECs for 20 min with different concentrations of Ang II provoked a significant increment in Na+/K+ ATPase activity compared with controls, in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Maximal response was obtained with 1000 pM Ang II after 20 min stimulation and resulted in a 2.2-fold increment in Na+/K+ ATPase activity. This stimulation was abolished when cells were incubated with 1000 pM Ang II in the presence of 1 microM of the specific AT1 subtype inhibitor, DuP753. Moreover, preincubation of HUVECs with 6313/G2 or with 1 mM dithiothreitol also inhibited the stimulatory effect of Ang II. These results suggest that the AT1 receptor subtype mediates the Na+/K+ ATPase response to Ang II in these cells.

Abstract
We analyzed the cleavage properties and the transcription regulation of the newt (Triturus vulgaris meridionalis) self-cleaving RNA. In vitro self-cleavage of model oligoribonucleotides occurs within a double hammerhead structure. In addition, an entire ribozyme molecule, as well as its catalytic domain, "trans-cleaves" in vitro appropriate oligoribonucleotide substrates. Signals encoded within the ribozyme DNA sequences regulate the ribozyme transcription, which is RNA polymerase II dependent. Finally, the deduced secondary structure of the self-cleaving RNA appears to be conserved in evolutionarily distant newt species. These features suggest that the newt ribozyme could play some role in the cell, possibly related to its cleavage properties.

Abstract
An epithelial cell strain has been established from the livers of male Chinese hamsters (CHEL cells). These cells, which proliferate in culture and retain their metabolic enzymatic activities during several subcultures, were used in a sister-chromatid exchange assay to evaluate the effectiveness of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and cyclophosphamide (CP). The results obtained demonstrate that CHEL cells are metabolically competent to activate different classes of procarcinogens into biologically active metabolites. Moreover, they showed a selective capacity to discriminate chemical carcinogens from noncarcinogens. Thus, the CHEL cell system appears to be a promising alternative to the short-term tests that include cell-free rodent liver homogenate to evaluate new promutagens and/or procarcinogens.

Abstract
Epithelial liver cells of the Chinese hamster (CHEL cells) were propagated in culture for 35 passages. At favourable cell densities, the population doubling time in normal medium, was 20 h. L-Tyrosine amino transferase activity was retained at a measurable level, but its enhancement by dexamethasone was detected solely in cells of early passages. Pyruvate kinase was strongly activated by fructose-1,6-biphosphate at low substrate concentrations. These enzymatic properties suggest that the CHEL cells are derived from a sub-population of parenchymal hepatocytes or from cells closely related to parenchymal hepatocytes. With a lag period of a few hours, CHEL cultures metabolized benzo[a]pyrene. In cell homogenates the various monooxygenase activities investigated were below the detection limits. However, other xenobiotic-metabolizing activities, such as cytochrome P-450 reductase, glutathione transferase and UDP-glucuronosyl-transferase were high, with levels comparable to those observed in freshly isolated rat parenchymal cells. Epoxide hydrolase activity was also detected, but was lower than in the liver. The CHEL cells were able to activate benzo[a]pyrene, 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and aflatoxin B1 to mutagens, as shown in a co-culture assay with V79 cells, in which acquisition of resistance to 6-thioguanine was studied. At early passages, the CHEL cells had a near diploid set of chromosomes. Then, gradually the frequency of cells with slight changes in the number of chromosomes and the frequency of tetraploids were increased. During the observation period (up to passage 20) the modal number of chromosomes shifted from 22 to 23. No gross morphological changes in the cultures were noticed during the 20 passages.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
