Urolithin 9-dehydroxylase from Enterocloster bolteae JCM 12243T catalyzing regiospecific dehydroxylation of urolithins

open access: yesEnzyme and Microbial Technology
Urolithins are metabolites derived from ellagic acid, a compound that is present in many plants, including pomegranate, via the action of gut microorganisms. Among them, urolithin A exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity and promotes autophagy, making it a potential contributor to human health.

The gut microbiota metabolite urolithin A, but not other relevant urolithins, induces p53-dependent cellular senescence in human colon cancer cells

open access: yesFood and Chemical Toxicology, 2020
The promotion of senescence in cancer cells by dietary (poly)phenols gained attention as a promising chemopreventive strategy against colorectal (CRC) and other cancers. Urolithins (Uros) are ellagitannins and ellagic acid-derived gut microbiota metabolites that reach high concentrations in the human colon.

Cellular Senescence and Aging: Mechanisms, Disease Convergence, and Therapeutic Frontiers

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
This schematic illustrates the hierarchical and interconnected nature of the primary molecular hallmarks of aging. The progression of aging is driven by a convergence of intrinsic molecular insults. Within the nucleus, genomic instability and telomere attrition trigger persistent DDR, accompanied by extensive epigenetic alterations.

Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Fatty Liver Disease: From Pathogenesis to Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Extracellular vesicles play a crucial role in interorgan crosstalk of adipose–liver and gut–liver axes and hold potential as therapeutic targets and drug delivery systems for metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Abbreviations: AT: adipose tissue; EVs: extracellular vesicles; HL: healthy liver; NAFL: nonalcoholic fatty liver ...

Targeting aging with urolithin A in humans: A systematic review

open access: yesAgeing Research Reviews
Urolithin A (UA) is a gut metabolite derived from ellagic acid. This systematic review assesses the potential geroprotective effect of UA in humans. In five studies including 250 healthy individuals, UA (10-1000 mg/day) for a duration ranging from 28 days to 4 months, showed a dose-dependent anti-inflammatory effect and upregulated some mitochondrial ...

Osteoarthritis: Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial degenerative joint disease and a leading cause of disability worldwide. This graphical abstract summarizes the epidemiology, diagnostic strategies, and therapeutic approaches of OA. OA development is driven by aging, metabolic dysregulation, and mechanical stress, leading to progressive joint degeneration ...

The effects of urolithin A on poly I:C-induced microglial activation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Neuroinflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, including viral infections. Viruses can directly invade the brain and infect neuronal cells or indirectly trigger a “cytokine storm” in the periphery that eventually leads to microglial activation in the brain.

Urologic Bacteriome: The Hero or the Villain in Prostate Cancer Onset, Progression, and Treatment?

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 1111-1151, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide and the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, presenting urgent unmet clinical needs in diagnosis and treatment. The recognition of the microbiome as a key factor in human health has prompted numerous studies, revealing an exciting new approach to ...

The Neuroprotective Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate (Punica granatum)

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 4588-4610, July 2026.
The Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate on Neurodegeneration. ABSTRACT Pomegranate is an exceptional fruit that can have several beneficial effects on human health. The peel of pomegranate, a waste product, should be recovered as it still contains valuable constituents, including phenolic compounds, minerals and fibre. The recovery of

Antioxidants in Plant‐Based Food Matrices: From Structure–Activity and Degradation Kinetics to Formulation Design

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant‐based antioxidants are widely incorporated into foods to retard oxidative deterioration and to deliver health‐related benefits. Yet, their in‐product and in vivo performance frequently diverges from predictions based on solution‐phase chemical assays, because matrix interactions, processing history, and host metabolism reshape both ...
