Cells with different concentrations of GSPs were suspended (5×105 cell/mL) in RPMI 1640 media in the upper chamber, and RPMI 1640 media with 10% FBS was supplemented in the lower chamber. Then, cells were allowed to migrate for 24 h.RESULTS GSPs inhibited the migration of 4T1 cells in a dosedependent manner. The migration of 4T1 cells was obviously inhibited by GSPs, even at a very low concentration (5 μg/mL),and was totally inhibited when the concentration was 20 μg/mL.Also, 20 μg/mL of GSPs inhibited cell viability by only 11.4% and induced early apoptosis by only 5.6% compared with a percentage of 4.0% in control cells. GSPs suppressed the activation of PDK1,Akt and Erk1/2 in a dose-dependent manner.CONCLUSION GSPs significantly inhibit the migration of highly metastatic mammary carcinoma 4T1 cells in vitro. This inhibition is independent of decreased cell viability or apoptosis induction. The inhibition of migration by GSPs is involved in blocking the PI3k/Akt and MAPK pathways.展开更多

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of grape seed polyphenol extract (GSPE) on the digestibility of starch, food lipid and food protein by digestive enzymes such as u-amylase, lipase, pepsin and trypsin. The digestion of each substrate was conducted at the optimal pH and temperature of specific enzyme. Bread containing different amount of grape pomace was used as a real food model and its digestion was conducted under simulated digestion condition. Concentrations of reducing sugar, fatty acid and amino acids in enzyme digested mixtures were determined as indicators of starch, lipid and protein digestions, respectively. Results indicate that GSPE significantly inhibited the digestion of starch, cooking oil and casein, but did not inhibit digestion of whey protein and egg white protein. Instead, the digestion of egg white and whey protein by trypsin was moderately enhanced in the presence of GSPE. However, under simulated human digestion condition, the grape pomace in the bread significantly reduced the digestibility of bread starch and protein.展开更多
