Differential Role of Active Compounds in Mitophagy and Related Neurodegenerative Diseases
Toxins, 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

Immunomodulatory Role of Urolithin A on Metabolic Diseases [PDF]
Biomedicines, 2021 Urolithin A (UroA) is a gut metabolite produced from ellagic acid-containing foods such as pomegranates, berries, and walnuts. UroA is of growing interest due to its therapeutic potential for various metabolic diseases based on immunomodulatory properties.

In vivo anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of ellagitannin metabolite urolithin A [PDF]
, 2011 Urolithin A is a major metabolite produced by rats and humans after consumption of pomegranate juice or pure ellagitannin geraniin. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of urolithin A on carrageenan-induced paw edema in mice.
