Effects of (−)-epicatechin on mitochondria [PDF]
Nutrition Reviews, 2020 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
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2022 : 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

Flavanol monomer-induced changes to the human faecal microflora [PDF]
, 2008 We have investigated the bacterial-dependent metabolism of ( − )-epicatechin and (+)-catechin using a pH-controlled, stirred, batch-culture fermentation system reflective of the distal region of the human large intestine.

Epicatechin induces NF-kappa B, activator rotein-1 (AP-1) and nuclear transcription factor erythroid 2p45-related factor-2 (Nrf2) via phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) and extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) signalling in HepG2 cells [PDF]
, 2009 The dietary flavonoid epicatechin has been reported to exhibit a wide range of biological activities. The objective of the present study was to investigate the time-dependent regulation by epicatechin on the activity of the main transcription factors (NF-

Colour changes during beer aging.
Kvasný průmysl, 2008 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 ...
