Ellagitannins (Ellagic Acid, Urolithin A, Urolithin B) Inhibit the Catalytic Activity of Human Recombinant Metalloproteinase 9. [PDF]
Iran J Pharm ResBackground: 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.
