Title Of The Study: Gamma-Oryzanol Rich Fraction Regulates The Expression Of Antioxidant And Oxidative Stress-Related Genes In Stressed Rat’s Liver / Maznah Ismail, Ghanya Al-Naqeeb, Wan Abd Aziz Bin Mamat, Zalinah Ahmad, /Nutrition & Metabolism

From the findings of this study, it was concluded that Gamma-oryzanol rich fraction showed potential antioxidant activity greater than OR in the regulation of antioxidants and oxidative stress gene markers.

Title Of The Study: Potential Functionality And Digestibility Of Oryzanol As Determined Using In Vitro Cell Culture Models / Chih-Chun Jean Huang / LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The results of this study showed that, in some situations, γ-oryzanol could present a more effective antioxidant activity than α-tocopherol, in terms of reducing tert-butyl hydroperoxide promoted oxidative damage on cellular mitochondrial activity.
