The presence and induction of regioselective dehydroxylases dictate urolithin metabolism by Enterocloster species [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes
Urolithins are a class of bioactive metabolites derived from the metabolism of dietary ellagitannins by the human gut microbiota. In the gut, urolithins are dehydroxylated regioselectively based on microbiota composition and activity.

A Systematic Study of the Hepatic–Intestinal First-Pass Effect and Excretion Pathways of Punicalagin Based on UPLC-MS/MS [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules
Punicalagin, the major polyphenol in pomegranate peel, shows broad bioactivity but suffers from poor oral bioavailability. Whether hepatic or intestinal first-pass processes dominate this limitation remains unresolved. We developed a quantitative UPLC-MS/

Differential Role of Active Compounds in Mitophagy and Related Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease or Parkinson’s disease, significantly reduce the quality of life of patients and eventually result in complete maladjustment. Disruption of the synapses leads to a deterioration in the communication

Ellagic acid and its fermentative derivative urolithin A show reverse effects on the gp91-phox gene expression, resulting in opposite alterations in all-trans retinoic acid-induced superoxide generating activity of U937 cells

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021
Ellagitannins (esters composed of glucose and ellagic acid) are hydrolyzed to generate ellagic acid in gut followed by conversion of ellagic acid to urolithins such as urolithin A by intestinal bacteria.
