Purification and characterization of novel isoforms of the polyphenol oxidase from Malus domestica fruit pulp.

Summary

This study purified and characterized novel polyphenol oxidase (PPO) isoforms from Golden delicious apple pulp. The purified isoforms have optimal pH and temperature, and can oxidize catechol substrate. PPOs are important in various industries and can be used in bioremediation and biosensor development.

Neuroprotective potential of plant derived parenchymal stem cells extract on environmental and genetic models of Parkinson disease through attenuation of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation.

Summary

A study investigated Double Stem Cell® (DSC) for its protective effect on Parkinson's disease (PD). MPTP-induced Parkinsonism in mice and genetic model of PD in Drosophila melanogaster were used in the study. MPTP-induced motor deficits were significantly improved by DSC through dose-dependent improvements in motor, cognitive, and motor coordination. Moreover, DSC attenuated neurotoxin-induced oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in mice and Drosophila. The findings suggest that DSC could be a potential alternative treatment option for PD.
