Chemists Discover New Way Antioxidants Fight Debilitating Diseases
Science Daily - Cancer, cardiovascular diseases, Parkinson's and
Alzheimer's are often linked to DNA damage that occurs when metal ions
in the body such as iron and copper produce reactive oxygen compounds
that damage human cells. Studies have shown antioxidants that
neutralize this activity and that occur naturally in fruits,
vegetables, green tea, garlic and onions can be effective at
preventing DNA damage.
A Clemson team of chemists, presenting its research at the 234th
annual American Chemical Society national meeting in Boston Aug.
19-24, has found a new mechanism for antioxidant activity: the
antioxidants bind to naturally present iron and copper in the body to
prevent formation of reactive oxygen compounds that damage DNA.
"Our studies have shown that antioxidants even at low concentrations
found in these foods bind to iron and copper and prevent DNA damage,"
said lead investigator and chemist Julia Brumaghim. "This goes a long
way in understanding how antioxidant supplements might help treat or
even prevent these debilitating illnesses."
The group is now testing its findings in bacterial cells and will test
human cells next.
Clemson graduate students on the project include Erin E. Battin,
Nathan R. Perron and Ria R. Ramoutar. Research is funded through a
grant from the American Heart Association.

Re: NEW mechanism for antioxidant activity
ROTFLOL! great problem solving skills, shelley! sheer genius. the
possibilities are intriguing!
your comment makes me want to take up a collection for a very strong magnet
for rustyrump. and, while he's thus affixed to it, we can secure his
computer just beyond his reach and put only i**n-rich foods within reach!
yeppers. you're a genius!
