In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion Affects the Bioaccessibility of Bioactive Compounds in Hibiscus sabdariffa Beverages

Jose de Jesus Rodriguez-Romero et al.

Summary: Through this study, it was found that Hibiscus sabdariffa has great potential to be used as an ingredient in products with natural-based ingredients. The content of bioactive compounds in Hibiscus beverages was characterized and their bioaccessibility was evaluated. Results showed significant differences in the content of bioactive compounds before and after in vitro intestinal digestion, indicating that digestion significantly affects the profile of bioactive compounds in the beverage.

In Vitro Study on the Effect of the Appropriate Encapsulating Agent for the Release of Phenolic Compounds from Hibiscus sabdariff a Linn Extracts

Migdalia S. Navidad-Murrieta et al.

Summary: This study encapsulated eight Hibiscus sabdariffa extracts with different concentrations, solvents, and decoction processes using spray-drying. Maltodextrin and gum arabic were used as carrying agents in aqueous and ethanolic media. Phenolic compounds were released under pH-controlled media. The study found strong molecular interactions between the carrying agents and phenolic compounds, indicating the potential for developing nutraceutical products.

3-Hydroxyphenylacetic Acid: A Blood Pressure-Reducing Flavonoid Metabolite

Patricia Dias et al.

Summary: Regular intake of polyphenol-rich food can prevent cardiovascular diseases. A metabolite of polyphenols called 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (3-HPAA) decreases blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels, which might be mediated by the release of nitric oxide from endothelial cells.

Gut microbiome mediates the protective effects of exercise after myocardial infarction

Qiulian Zhou et al.

Summary: Exercise training improves cardiac dysfunction post-myocardial infarction (MI) and modulates gut microbiota. Pre-depletion of gut microbiota abolishes the protective effects of exercise training in MI mice. Mice receiving microbiota transplants from exercised MI mice have better cardiac function. The metabolites 3-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid (3-HPA) and 4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA) protect cardiac dysfunction and reduce apoptosis through NRF2 pathway.

Microbiota metabolites modulate the T helper 17 to regulatory T cell (Th17/Treg) imbalance promoting resilience to stress-induced anxiety- and depressive-like behaviors

Susan Westfall et al.

Summary: Chronic stress disrupts immune homeostasis and gut microbiota-derived metabolites play a role in attenuating inflammation, promoting resilience to stress-induced immune and behavioral abnormalities. A synbiotic containing probiotics and polyphenol-rich prebiotics was found to reduce chronic stress-induced inflammatory responses in the ileum and prefrontal cortex in male mice, potentially through specific synbiotic-produced metabolites. This study suggests a novel synbiotic treatment for chronic-stress induced behavioral impairments and highlights a potential mechanism for gut-microbiota host interaction in modulating peripheral and brain immune systems.

S. G. Sayago-Ayerdi et al.

Summary: This study aimed to understand gut microbiota bioconversion of phenolic compounds in predigested Hibiscus sabdariffa (Hb) calyces. The results showed that a wide range of microbial phenolic metabolites were formed during colonic fermentation of polyphenol-rich Hb, potentially affecting health.

Phenolic compounds and biological rhythms: Who takes the lead?

Javier Avila-Roman et al.

Summary: Phenolic compounds, despite their low bioavailability, have shown beneficial effects against chronic diseases. The interaction between these compounds and biological rhythms may impact their bioactivities, with implications for the food industry. Through extensive transformation, including metabolization in the colon by gut microbiota, phenolic compounds may promote homeostasis and interact with the biological clock system. This aligns with the xenohormesis hypothesis, suggesting that plant chemicals can help animals adapt to changing environmental conditions.
