Ellagitannins, urolithins, and neuroprotection: Human evidence and the possible link to the gut microbiota

Rocio Garcia-Villalba et al.

Summary: Ellagitannins (ETs) and ellagic acid (EA) are dietary polyphenols metabolized by gut microbiota to produce urolithins (Uros), which have potential health benefits. Consuming ET-rich foods, such as pomegranate, may improve brain health. However, the specific mechanism and metabolites responsible for these effects are still unknown. Uro-A, a metabolite of ETs, shows potential in neuroprotection through anti-inflammatory, mitophagy, autophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis activities. Improving blood flow, gut microbiota ecology, and gut barrier integrity may also contribute to the neuroprotective effects. This article reviews the current evidence and proposes a roadmap for further research in this area.

Gut Bacteria Involved in Ellagic Acid Metabolism To Yield Human Urolithin Metabotypes Revealed

Carlos E. Iglesias-Aguirre et al.

Summary: We discovered a new bacterium in the feces of a healthy woman that can produce urolithins A and B as well as intermediate metabolites. Additionally, we developed co-culture systems that reproduced the production of urolithins upon fermentation of UM-A and UM-B. This finding demonstrates the potential of these urolithin-producing bacteria for use as probiotics and in the production of bioactive urolithins for various applications.

Urolithins: a Comprehensive Update on their Metabolism, Bioactivity, and Associated Gut Microbiota

Rocio Garcia-Villalba et al.

Summary: Urolithins, metabolites produced by the gut microbiota from polyphenols, have been extensively studied for their potential health benefits. Recent research has identified 13 urolithins and their corresponding conjugated metabolites in various human fluids and tissues. The study highlights the importance of understanding the microorganisms involved in urolithin production and the composition of gut microbiota associated with urolithin metabolism. However, further in vitro studies are needed to confirm the reported activities of urolithins.

Biodegradation of Punicalagin into Ellagic Acid by Selected Probiotic Bacteria: A Study of the Underlying Mechanisms by MS-Based Proteomics

Victor Caballero et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the ability of 30 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to transform punicalagin from pomegranate into ellagic acid. All tested LAB strains were capable of transforming punicalagin into ellagic acid. Proteomic analysis revealed an increase of transglycosylases and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters during this transformation process.
