Therapeutic Potential of Mitophagy-Inducing Microflora Metabolite, Urolithin A for Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Mitochondrial dysfunction including deficits of mitophagy is seen in aging and neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Apart from traditionally targeting amyloid beta (Aβ), the main culprit in AD brains, other approaches include ...

Separation of Isomeric Forms of Urolithin Glucuronides Using Supercritical Fluid Chromatography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Urolithins are gut microbiota metabolites produced in humans after consuming foods containing ellagitannins and ellagic acid. Three urolithin metabotypes have been reported for different individuals depending on the final urolithins produced.

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.

RETRACTED: A Combination Therapy of Urolithin A+EGCG Has Stronger Protective Effects than Single Drug Urolithin A in a Humanized Amyloid Beta Knockin Mice for Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesCells, 2022
In the current study, for the first time, we study mitophagy enhancer urolithin A and a combination of urolithin A+green tea extract EGCG against human Aβ peptide-induced mitochondrial and synaptic, dendritic, inflammatory toxicities and behavioral ...

In vivo anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of ellagitannin metabolite urolithin A [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Pomegranate Juice Ameliorates Dopamine Release and Behavioral Deficits in a Rat Model of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Pomegranate juice (PJ) is a rich source of ellagitannins (ETs), precursors of colonic metabolite urolithin A, which are believed to contribute to pomegranate’s neuroprotective effect.

Novel Regioselective Synthesis of Urolithin GlucuronidesHuman Gut Microbiota Cometabolites of Ellagitannins and Ellagic Acid

open access: yes, 2022
Urolithins (dibenzo-pyran-[b,d]-6 one derivatives) are human gut microbiota metabolites produced from the natural food antioxidant ellagic acid. Urolithins are better absorbed than ellagic acid and demonstrate biological activities that suggest that they

Constituents and Metabolites of a French Oak Wood Extract (Robuvit®) in Serum and Blood Cell Samples of Women Undergoing Hysterectomy

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Ellagitannins are signature constituents of oak wood and their consumption has been associated with various health benefits. In vivo, they undergo metabolic degradation including gut microbial metabolism yielding urolithins.
