| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Phytochemical, including polyphenols, have been shown to exhibit various physiological functions. For instance, there is ample evidence that phytochemicals have anti-obesity and anti-cancer effects in cellular and rodent models while the mechanisms underlying those functions are still unclear. In this study, a novel and unique mechanism has been found, i.e., several phytochemicals may exhibit proteo-stress properties towards cellular proteins, which may activate protein quality control systems and thereby showing anti-inflammatory functions in a cellular model.
