    Grapes are renowned for their health-promoting properties due to polyphenols, particularly anthocyanins in red grapes and flavonols in white grapes. This study evaluated the total antioxidant capacities (TAC) of specific grape varieties (Sultaniye, Chardonnay, Shiraz, Carignan, Alicante Bouschet, and Merlot) using the CUPRAC (CUPric Reducing Antioxidant Capacity) and ABTS/HRP (2,2’-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)/horseradish peroxidase) methods. Additionally, total phenolic, flavonoid, and anthocyanin contents were determined via Folin Ciocalteu, AlCl3/NaNO2, and pH differential methods. Primary phenolic compounds were identified with High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-Photodiode Array (HPLC-PDA). TAC values of the grape juices (mmol Trolox L−1) ranked as Alicante > Shiraz > Sultaniye > Carignan > Merlot > Chardonnay by CUPRAC, and Shiraz > Alicante > Merlot > Carignan ≥ Sultaniye > Chardonnay by ABTS/HRP and for skin extracts (mmol Trolox g−1), Carignan > Alicante > Shiraz > Merlot > Chardonnay > Sultaniye by CUPRAC, and Carignan > Shiraz > Alicante > Merlot > Chardonnay > Sultaniye by ABTS/HRP. The study demonstrated a strong correlation between phenolic composition and TAC values in grape samples, with anthocyanins as the predominant family contributing significantly to TAC. Varietal and intra-fruit differences in specific phenolic compounds were found to account for variations in observed TAC levels. Specifically, grape skin samples showed a more robust correlation between antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content (r = 0.986) than grape juices (r = 0.777). These findings underscore the considerable variation in antioxidant potential among grape varieties and emphasize the critical role of phenolic composition in the health-related benefits of grape consumption. © 2024 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

    The Protective Effects of Myrtus Communis Subsp. on Ovariectomized Diabetic Rats’ Renal and Intestinal Tissues: in Vivo and in Silico Approaches
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2025) Ertik, O.; Kadıoğlu-Yaman, Beril; Şen, Ali; Şener, Göksel; Yanardag, Refiye
    Introduction: Postmenopausal diabetes is a condition that affects millions of women and their quality of life. Also, kidney and small intestine tissues are damaged due to diabetes. The present study aimed to examine the protective effects of an extract prepared from Myrtus communis leaves on kidney and small intestine tissues against experimentally created postmenopausal diabetes. Methods: For this purpose, experimental rats were randomly divided into six groups (Control; ovariectomy:OVX, diabetic:D, ovariectomy + diabetic:OVX + D, ovariectomy + diabetic + oestrogen:OVX + D+E2, ovariectomy + diabetic + MC: OVX + D+MC) and kidney and small intestine tissues were taken after the experimental procedure. Results: Evaluations of biochemical parameters (glutathione and glutathione-related enzymes, antioxidant enzymes, etc.) showed that MC had a protective effect on kidney and small intestine tissues in diabetes and ovariectomy groups. Conclusion: It can be suggested that MC extract has a protective effect on small intestine and kidney tissues in postmenopausal diabetes and may be a good herbal source for this purpose. © 2024 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
