Urolithins Display both Antioxidant and Pro-oxidant Activities Depending on Assay System and Conditions

open access: yes, 2016
The biological effects of polyphenolic ellagitannins are mediated by their intestinal metabolites, urolithins. This study investigated redox properties of urolithins A and B using ORAC assay, three cell-based assays, copper-initiated pro-oxidant activity

Vaccarin Improves Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury by Attenuating Oxidative Stress and Ferroptosis Through Reducing NOX4‐Modulated JAK2/STAT3 Pathway Activation

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vaccarin is a naturally occurring flavonoid glycoside with cardioprotective properties; however, its involvement in myocardial ischemia–reperfusion (MI/R) injury remains poorly defined. We herein investigated whether vaccarin protects cardiomyocytes from MI/R‐induced dysfunction in vivo and in vitro and examined the associated molecular ...
