Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), known for its carcinogenic and mutagenic properties, is a marker of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). This study aimed to investigate the effect of partially replacing sodium chloride with different calcium salts (calcium chloride, calcium gluconate, calcium citrate, and calcium lactate) on BaP formation in barbecued pork sausages. The results revealed that all four calcium salts inhibited BaP formation in barbecued pork sausages (P < 0.05). Specifically, calcium gluconate showed the most significant effect on BaP inhibition, with an inhibition rate of 61.82 %. Furthermore, calcium salts were found to inhibit lipid oxidation in barbecued pork sausages while promoting the Maillard reaction. Further validation experiments used resveratrol and sodium sulfite as lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction inhibitors, respectively. These results indicated that lipid oxidation is the primary pathway for BaP production in barbecued pork sausage and that the addition of calcium salts can effectively block this process.

Effect of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Calcium, and Moringa oleifera leaves extract co-administration can prevent chemical-induced carcinogenesis

Article

Author: Une, Hemant ; Kumawat, Mrudula

BACKGROUND:

Colon cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The present study evaluated the chemopreventive effect of the combined treatment of Lactobacillus acidophilus, calcium citrate, and Moringa oleifera leaves extract against DMH (1,1-dimethylhydrazine hydrochloride) induced colon cancer.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:

Sprague Dawley rats were grouped into 10 different groups and treated with DMH 30 mg/kg s.c. for 8 weeks, Successful induction of colon cancer was confirmed with the help of symptoms, Individual and combined treatments of Lactobacillus acidophilus (10⁹ cfu p.o.), calcium citrate (2 mg/kg p.o.) and Moringa oleifera (100 & 200 mg/kg p.o.) leaves extracts were used for 4 weeks.

RESULT:

After 4 weeks of treatment, it was observed that a significant reduction in aberrant crypt foci (ACFs) count, whereas liver and kidney function, AST (aspartate transaminase), ALT (alanine transaminase), urea and creatinine biomarkers were retained in its normal range. Upon DMH treatment, liver tissue loses histoarchitecture with mononuclear cell infiltration, nuclear enlargement, and hyperchromasia, this reverts due to the combined treatment of Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA), calcium citrate (CC) and hydroalcoholic extract of Moringa oleifera leaves (ME). From the results, it was revealed that individual and combined treatment of Lactobacillus acidophilus, calcium citrate, and hydroalcoholic extract of Moringa oleifera leaves shows beneficial effects against the carcinogen.

CONCLUSION:

Combined treatment of Lactobacillus acidophilus, calcium citrate, and hydroalcoholic extract of Moringa oleifera leaves showed positive effects against carcinogenesis and lowered aberrant crypt foci count and shows histoarchitectural improvements in liver histology with no nuclear enlargement and hyperchromasia in liver tissue.

Urate-lowering effect of calcium supplementation: Analyses of a randomized controlled trial

Article

Author: Cândido, Flávia Galvão ; Alves, Raquel Duarte Moreira ; Freitas, Dayse Mara de Oliveira ; Bittencourt, Jersica Martins ; Rocha, Daniela Mayumi Usuda Prado ; Alfenas, Rita de Cássia Gonçalves

OBJECTIVE:

To investigate if the gout-protective effect of low-fat dairy products could be attributed to the urate-lowering effect of calcium.

METHODS:

This is a placebo-controlled trial in which thirty-five adult (aged 18-42 years) female low-calcium consumers (<800 mg/d) were randomized to one of three treatment groups: low calcium breakfast (control, ∼70 mg of calcium/d) -C or high-calcium breakfast (∼770 mg/d) from calcium citrate - CIT or from skim milk - SM, during 45 consecutive days. Breakfasts were matched for potential confounders and were provided as part of an energy-restricted normoprotein diet containing an additional 800 mg of calcium/d. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurements (body fat assessment) and fasting blood samples (urate, ionic calcium, PTH, and 1,25-(OH)2-D3) were taken at baseline and the end of the experiment.

CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION:

http://www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br/ (RBR-7Q2N33).

RESULTS:

Despite no significant changes in total body weight/fat, CIT and SM led to a significant reduction in serum urate and ionic calcium, but did not affect PTH and vitamin D concentrations compared to C. CIT and SM reduced baseline serum urate by ∼14% and ∼17%, respectively. There was a trend to a positive correlation between changes in serum urate and changes in ionic calcium on day 45 (r = 0.327, P = 0.055).

CONCLUSIONS:

Calcium supplementation (770 mg/d from dairy or calcium citrate) reduced serum urate concentrations, suggesting that the gout-protective effect of low-fat dairy consumption is at least partly due to a urate-lowering effect of calcium.
