Cao L, Lee S, Melough M, Sakaki J, Maas K, Koo S, et al.
Nutrients . 2020 Jan; 12(2). PMID: 31973241
Recent studies have suggested that blackcurrant (BC) anthocyanins have promising health benefits, possibly through regulating gut microbiome. Three- and eighteen-month old female mice were fed standard mouse diets for 4...

J Nutr Biochem . 2019 Jul; 71:82-89. PMID: 31302374
Upon liver injury, quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSCs) transdifferentiate to myofibroblast-like activated HSCs (aHSCs), which are primarily responsible for the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins during the development of liver...

Lee Y, Pham T, Bae M, Hu S, ONeill E, Chun O, et al.
Obesity (Silver Spring) . 2018 Dec; 27(1):112-120. PMID: 30569636
Objective: With increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), effective strategies to prevent NASH are needed. This study investigated whether the consumption of blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum) can prevent the development of...

Sakaki J, Melough M, Lee S, Kalinowski J, Koo S, Lee S, et al.
Nutrients . 2018 Nov; 10(11). PMID: 30400569
Due to deleterious side effects of currently available medications, the search for novel, safe, and effective preventive agents for improving bone health in aging continues and is urgently needed. This...

Kim B, Farruggia C, Ku C, Pham T, Yang Y, Bae M, et al.
J Nutr Biochem . 2017 Feb; 43:27-35. PMID: 28193580
The objective of this study was to determine if astaxanthin (ASTX), a xanthophyll carotenoid, can prevent obesity-associated metabolic abnormalities, inflammation and fibrosis in diet-induced obesity (DIO) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)...

Yang Y, Bae M, Park Y, Lee Y, Pham T, Rudraiah S, et al.
J Nutr Biochem . 2016 Dec; 40:172-177. PMID: 27915160
Activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is critical for liver fibrosis development. Previously, we showed that astaxanthin (ASTX), a xanthophyll carotenoid, has antifibrogenic effects in LX-2 cells, a human HSC...
