UV and MS Identification of Urolithins and Nasutins, the Bioavailable Metabolites of Ellagitannins and Ellagic Acid in Different Mammals

, 2016
Urolithins are microbial metabolites produced from ellagic acid after the intake of dietary ellagitannins by different animals. Urolithin metabolites have distinct UV spectra that enable their detection and differentiation by HPLC coupled with UV ...

Fermentative Liberation and Transformation of Bioactive Compounds: Ellagic Acid from Nut Press Cake Ellagitannins

Applied Sciences
Oil extracted from walnuts leaves behind large amounts of defatted press cake that still retains valuable nutrients. Solid state fermentation (SSF) is a promising method to liberate bioactive compounds from food by-products.

Trimethylamine-N-Oxide (TMAO)-Induced Impairment of Cardiomyocyte Function and the Protective Role of Urolithin B-Glucuronide

Molecules, 2018
One of the most recently proposed candidates as a potential trigger for cardiovascular diseases is trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). Possible direct effects of TMAO on myocardial tissue, independent of vascular damage, have been only partially explored so ...

Ellagitannins (Ellagic Acid, Urolithin A, Urolithin B) Inhibit the Catalytic Activity of Human Recombinant Metalloproteinase 9

Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research
Background: Ellagitannins are well-recognized for their antioxidant, chemopreventive, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective efficacy. Due to their poor absorption and extensive catabolism, it is proposed that urolithins, as ellagic acid (EA) metabolites, are the real active molecules exerting these biological functions.
