The seeds of the tested species showed high antioxidant activity (mainly by scavenging O2•− and OH• radicals), anti-inflammatory (mainly through LOX inhibition), anti-diabetic, anti-obesity and anti-cancer, with the highest activity against colon cancer cells (Dld-1 line), showing no activity against healthy colon epithelial cells (CCD841CoN). The gene discussed is LOX; the disease is obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
