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

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

Diet-derived urolithin A is produced by a dehydroxylase encoded by human gut Enterocloster species
Urolithin A (uroA) is a polyphenol derived from the multi-step metabolism of dietary ellagitannins by the human gut microbiota. Once absorbed, uroA can trigger mitophagy and aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling pathways, altering host immune function ...

Role of the small intestine, colon and microbiota in determining the metabolic fate of polyphenols [PDF]
(Poly)phenols are a large group of compounds, found in food, beverages, dietary supplements and herbal medicines. Owing to their biological activities, absorption and metabolism of the most abundant compounds in humans are well understood.

A widely distributed metalloenzyme class enables gut microbial metabolism of host- and diet-derived catechols. [PDF]
Catechol dehydroxylation is a central chemical transformation in the gut microbial metabolism of plant- and host-derived small molecules. However, the molecular basis for this transformation and its distribution among gut microorganisms are poorly ...

Exploring the role of LDH in cancer cells through the use of small-molecule inhibitors. [PDF]
Metabolic reprogramming represents a potential therapeutic target in cancer. The studies of this thesis work lead to assume the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as key element coordinating neoplastic proliferation and invasive growth, suggesting for ...

Urolithin A Is a Dietary Microbiota-Derived Human Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Antagonist [PDF]
Urolithins (e.g., UroA and B) are gut microbiota-derived metabolites of the natural polyphenol ellagic acid. Urolithins are associated with various health benefits, including attenuation of inflammatory signaling, anti-cancer effects and repression of lipid accumulation.
