Tropical citrus antioxidants and catabolism of phenolics in green tea, coffee, cocoa and orange juice
Citrus fruits are of special interest as they accumulate large amounts of flavonoids and are consumed in substantial quantities worldwide. Despite extensive research on citrus flavonoids, many compounds remain unidentified in tropical citrus species. High performance liquid chromatography with mass …

Studies on the mechanism of action of the bioflavonoid Hesperidin methyl chalcone in causing vascular and intestinal smooth muscle to relax
… that can be extracted from the mesocarp of citrus fruits. They have been the subject of investigation and controversy since 1936. Much of this is covered in a eview by Vogin (1). As mentioned in the review, Szenti-Gyorgyi observed first that crude citrus extracts were more efficient in …

Modulation of drug transport by citrus fruit juices
… transporters have been variously studied with citrus fruit juices. The collective data led us to hypothesize that the modulating activity of citrus fruit juices on cellular transport and metabolic pathways is dependent on the dominant flavonoid pattern and taxonomy of the citrus fruits. …

Isolation and effects of citrus limonoids on cytochrome p450 inhibition, apoptotic induction and cytotoxicity on human cancer cells.
… illustrates an efficient purification method for citrus limonoids and flavonoids, while examining their effects on cytochrome P450 inhibition and apoptotic induction on human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) and colonic adenocarcinoma (Caco-2) cells. The first study developed a bulk purification method for …

Estimation of net carbon sequestration potential of citrus under different management systems using the life cycle approach
… the net carbon sequestration potential of citrus to mitigate climate change. Perennial crops such as citrus have the potential to absorb and sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, save for the carbon released back through the application of agro-chemical inputs and use of fossil …

Manipulation of ascorbic acid levels in Arabidopsis thaliana
… it was known that eating limes and other citrus fruits could ward off the affects of scurvy as early as the 1500's. Ascorbate serves many critical functions in plants as well as the human body. In both, it works as a cofactor in the production of hydroxyproline-rich compounds and helps …

Effects of APOA1/C3/A4/A5 Gene Cluster and Flavonoids Intake on Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors in U.S. Populations
… beers (22.7%), wines (9.8%), banana (9.7%) and citrus fruits (6.8%) were the most important sources of total flavonoid intake. Our study also clearly demonstrated the impacts of socio-demographic factors on blood lipids levels among U.S. adults and revealed that higher consumption of total …
