Abstract: Resveratrol has been reported to have hypolipidemic properties. We investigated whether resveratrol and its analogs: pterostilbene, piceatannol and resveratrol trimethyl ether, would activate the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR?) isoform. This nuclear receptor is proposed to mediate the activity of lipid-lowering drugs such as the fibrates. The four stilbenes and ciprofibrate (positive control) were evaluated for the activation of endogenous PPAR? in H4IIEC3 cells transfected with a luciferase gene reporter construct. Pterostilbene demonstrated the highest induction of PPAR?; the maximal response to pterostilbene was similar to that obtained with the hypolipidemic drug, ciprofibrate.

Abstract: Provided are food products comprising at least 0.5 g of trans fatty acid per serving and one or more water-insoluble cellulose derivatives in an amount sufficient to reduce absorption of the trans fatty acid by a mammal consuming the food product, methods of ameliorating the harmful effects of trans fatty acids on a mammal that has consumed trans fatty acids, and methods of reducing the amount of trans fatty acids capable of being absorbed by a mammal ingesting a trans fatty acid containing food product.

Abstract: Resveratrol, a stilbenoid antioxidant found in grapes, wine, peanuts and other berries, has been reported to have hypolipidemic properties. Resveratrol and its three analogs (pterostilbene, piceatannol and resveratrol trimethyl ether) were evaluated for their effects on the activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR?) isoforms, a receptor shown to mediate the activity of lipid-lowering drugs such as the fibrates. The four stilbenes and ciprofibrate (positive control) were evaluated for the activation of endogenous PPAR? in H4IIEC3 cells. Pterostilbene demonstrated the highest induction of PPAR? demonstrating increases of 7- and 9-14 fold relative to control. The maximal responses to pterostilbene are similar to those obtained with the hypolipidemic drug, ciprofibrate; that is, pterostilbene acts as a PPAR? agonist, like that of the fibrate class, and is a more effective hypolipidemic agent than resveratrol.

Abstract: Provided are food products comprising at least 0.5 g of trans fatty acid per serving and at least 1.33 weight percent of one or more water-soluble cellulose derivatives, based on the total weight of the food product, methods of ameliorating the harmful effects of trans fatty acids on a mammal that has consumed trans fatty acids, and methods of reducing the amount of trans fatty acids capable of being absorbed by a mammal ingesting a trans fatty acid containing food product.

Abstract: A water-insoluble cellulose derivative, such as ethyl cellulose is useful for preventing or reducing oxidative stress or oxidative cell injury in tissues of an animal and in particular for influencing the level Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1 (SCD1) gene expression or ATP synthase mitochondrial F1 complex assembly factor 1 (ATPAF1) gene expression in non-adipose tissues of the animal.
