Excellent- More about Phenolic Compounds in Health and Disease
Phenolic compounds are found in plant-based foods and have important health benefits, including regulating diabetes, preventing cancer, and reducing inflammation. This book explores the presence, bioavailability, and biological activities of phenolic compounds in different plant species, including Bignoniaceae, Handroanthus impetiginosus, L. leucocephala calli, Bauhinia holophylla, and B. variegate.

Phenolic compounds, which are present in plant-based foods, have a significant impact on regulating health and disease. This book consists of seven chapters that explore these compounds from various perspectives. Chapter One provides an overview of the current knowledge regarding the presence of phenolic compounds in plants, their bioavailability, and the protective effects they have against diabetes mellitus. Chapter Two delves into the Bignoniaceae family and Handroanthus impetiginosus, discussing the main groups of phenolic compounds reported for this species and their biological activities. Chapter Three highlights scientific evidence supporting the role of polyphenols in preventing and treating cancer. Chapter Four presents a study that demonstrates the potential of L. leucocephala calli as promising biotechnological products for obtaining phenolic compounds in vitro. Chapter Five outlines a study that evaluated the phenolic compound content and antioxidant and antibacterial activities of extracts and fractions of Bauhinia holophylla. Chapter Six examines the production of phenolic compounds in cell suspensions of B. variegate. Finally, Chapter Seven offers insights into the anti-inflammatory activities of galangin, highlighting its ability to attenuate allergic inflammation, regulate the PPARγ pathway, inhibit ERK, NF-kappaB, PI3K/AKT, and NLRP3 signaling, interplay with the MAPK signaling cascade, and activate Nrf2 signaling in animal models.
