Cognitive effects could possibly depend on baseline nutritional status, i.e., any benefits of micronutrient supplementation might only be realized in individuals with micronutrient deficiencies and not in those with adequate micronutrient status
Bisphenol-A treatment (200 M for 57 days) of primary rat neuron cultures showed an increase of oxidative stress and impairment of neurite outgrowth ( Recent studies suggest that bisphenol-A can affect the migration and maturation of cortical inhibitory GABAergic interneurons
Probing position N108, we found that incorporation of any other amino acid resulted in a substantially reduced formation of cyanidin ( 8 ) suggesting that the hydrogen-bond interaction of the asparagine to the flavonoid substrate is critical for dehydratase activity, while GSH-transferase activity was comparatively less affected for N108 variants comprising an alanine, histidine, tyrosine or tryptophan (Fig

Antioxidants are the heroes in this scenario because they come along and donate one of their electrons to the free radicals (also called reactive oxygen species) and stabilize them
