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/

Urolithins–gut Microbial Metabolites with Potential Health Benefits
Urolithins are bioactive metabolites derived from the gut microbial transformation of ellagitannins found in various foods like pomegranates, berries, and nuts. These metabolites, primarily urolithin A and urolithin B, exhibit diverse biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, neuroprotective, antiatherogenic ...

Urolithin C suppresses colorectal cancer progression via the AKT/mTOR pathway
AbstractUrolithin families are gut-microbial metabolites of ellagic acid (EA). Although urolithin A (UA) and urolithin B (UB) were reported to have antiproliferative activities in cancer cells, the role and related mechanisms of urolithin C (UC) in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not yet been clarified. In this study, we assess the antitumor activities of

Urolithin A ve yaşlı sağlığına güncel yaklaşım
Fizyolojik boyutuyla yaşlanma yaşlanma sürecine bağlı olarak yapı ve fonksiyonlardaki bozulmadır. Psikolojik boyutuyla yaşlanma ise bireylerin yaşlılık döneminde geçirdikleri davranış, uyum ve mental fonksiyonlarındaki değişimleri kapsar. Yaşlanma; evrensel, ilerleyici, kademeli ve engellenemez bir süreçtir.
