Effects of (−)-epicatechin on mitochondria [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction is observed in a broad range of human diseases, including rare genetic disorders and complex acquired pathologies. For this reason, there is increasing interest in identifying safe and effective strategies to mitigate mitochondrial impairments. Natural compounds are widely used for multiple indications,

Effect of Epicatechin on Skeletal Muscle
: Loss of skeletal muscle (SkM) quality is associated with different clinical conditions such as aging, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and heart failure. Nutritional research has focused on identifying naturally occurring molecules that mitigate the loss of SkM quality induced by pathology or syndrome. In this context, although few human studies have been

Colour changes during beer aging.
Spectrum changes of yellow, orange and yellow-red oxidation products of epicatechin with their typical absorption maximum around 430 nm were studied. Oxygen is necessary for the non-enzymatic formation of these substances and their formation increases ...

Biotransformation of (−)-epicatechin, (+)-epicatechin, (−)-catechin, and (+)-catechin by intestinal bacteria involved in isoflavone metabolism [PDF]
Abstract Isoflavone-metabolizing bacteria, Adlercreutzia equolifaciens, Asaccharobacter celatus, Slackia equolifaciens, and Slackia isoflavoniconvertens catalyzed C-ring cleavage of (–)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin, (+)-epicatechin, and (–)-catechin in varying degrees.

Evaluation of (−)-epicatechin metabolites as recovery biomarker of dietary flavan-3-ol intake
Data from dietary intervention studies suggest that intake of (−)-epicatechin mediates beneficial vascular effects in humans. However, population-based investigations are required to evaluate associations between habitual intake and health and these ...
