The Supporting Role of Natural Products as Effective Adjuvants in Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Natural products, as multi‐target and low‐toxicity adjuvants, enhance immune checkpoint inhibitor responses and reduce immune‐related adverse events through T cell reprogramming, microenvironment remodeling, and microbiota‐immune modulation. ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the treatment landscape of malignant tumors ...

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.

Phytoestrogen Metabolism by Adult Human Gut Microbiota

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Phytoestrogens are plant-derived polyphenols with a structure similar to human estrogens. The three main groups of phytoestrogens, isoflavones, ellagitannins, and lignans, are transformed into equol, urolithins, and enterolignans, respectively, by ...

Walnut polyphenol metabolites, urolithins A and B, inhibit the expression of the prostate-specific antigen and the androgen receptor in prostate cancer cells

open access: yes, 2015
Walnuts have been gathering attention for their health-promoting properties. They are rich in polyphenols, mainly ellagitannins (ETs) that after consumption are hydrolyzed to release ellagic acid (EA).

Beyond “you are what you eat”: Unlocking gut microbiota‐mediated biotransformation of dietary phytochemicals

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
The “efficacy paradox” of phytochemicals, low bioavailability yet significant health benefits, is associated with gut microbiota, which biotransforms dietary precursors into bioactive metabolites, enabling systemic effects. Thus, health outcomes of diet depend not just on intake “the rainbow”, but on gut microbial metabolism, redefining “you are what ...

Urolithins in Human Breast Milk after Walnut Intake and Kinetics of Gordonibacter Colonization in Newly Born: The Role of Mothers’ Urolithin Metabotypes

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2020
The maternal-infant transmission of several urolithins through breast milk and the gut colonization of infants by the urolithin-producing bacterium Gordonibacter during their first year of life were explored. Two trials (proof-of-concept study: n = 11; validation study: n = 30) were conducted, where breastfeeding mothers consumed walnuts as a dietary ...
