Isolation and characterization of a novel human intestinal Enterococcus faecium FUA027 capable of producing urolithin A from ellagic acid

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Urolithin A (UA) has received considerable research attention because of its health benefits. However, only a few strains have been reported to produce UA from ellagic acid (EA), and the molecular mechanisms underlying the gut microbiota-mediated ...

Programming Gut Microbiome Function Through Cross‐Feeding: From Ecological Mechanisms to Live Biotherapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents gut microbial cross‐feeding through a Mechanism–Technology–Application framework. It summarizes major resource‐transfer modes, the experimental and computational tools used to establish causality, and potential interventions involving dietary substrates, live biotherapeutic products, and engineered microbes.

Fucus vesiculosus Polysaccharide-Based Solid Dispersions Enhance Aqueous Dispersion and Gut Microbial Biotransformation of Ellagic Acid

open access: yesFoods
Ellagic acid (EA) is a food-derived polyphenol with multiple biological activities, but its poor water solubility and aggregation in aqueous systems limit its accessibility to gut microorganisms.

Exploration of Novel Urolithin C Derivatives as Non-Competitive Inhibitors of Liver Pyruvate Kinase

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2023
The inhibition of liver pyruvate kinase could be beneficial to halt or reverse non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a progressive accumulation of fat in the liver that can lead eventually to cirrhosis.

Mitophagy Activation by Urolithin A to Target Muscle Aging

open access: yesCalcified Tissue International, 2023
AbstractThe age-related loss of skeletal muscle function starts from midlife and if left unaddressed can lead to an impaired quality of life. A growing body of evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction is causally involved with muscle aging. Muscles are tissues with high metabolic requirements, and contain rich mitochondria supply to support ...

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

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.

Rewiring nutrition: Chemical insights into the physiological and microbiological roles of food's microconstituents

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Bidirectional interactions between food‐derived sensory compounds, gut sensing and microbiota, host physiological feedback, and metabolite production within the food matrix collectively shape sensory perception, microbial dynamics, and metabolic health.
