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

Biochemistry 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.

Mitophagy Activation by Urolithin A to Target Muscle Aging
Calcified 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 ...

Urolithin A alleviates neuropathic pain and activates mitophagy
Molecular Pain, 2023 Neuropathic pain (NP) occurs frequently in the general population and has a negative impact on the quality of life. There is no effective therapy available yet owing to the complex pathophysiology of NP. In our previous study, we found that urolithin A (UA), a naturally occurring microflora-derived metabolite, could relieve NP in mice by inhibiting the
