Once in the gut, proanthocyanins reduce the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio and increase the relative abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila.
Shared Reference Notes
- [1.1]
- Anthocyanins promote an increase in beneficial bacteria, including #Lactobacilli and #Bifidobacteria, while reducing pathogenic bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium. - [1.2] [#Catechins, #Polyphenols]
- #Grape seed polyphenol extract (GSPE) is a rich source of flavan-3-ols including catechin, epicatechin, and anthocyanins which were shown to produce a variety of bioavailable #Phenolic acids both in the plasma and brain. - [#Lipopolysaccharide] - Anthocyanins inhibit LPS-induced microglial activation in BV2 microglial cells by inhibiting NF-κB translocation into the nucleus and consequently cytokine release including #Nitric Oxide and prostaglandin E2 release
- [#Depression] [#Phenolic acids] - Anthocyanins can also be broken down into protocatechuic acid, further into the bioactive phenolic acid #Cyanidin-3-glucoside and finally into #3-hydroxycinnamic acid, which has potent anti-depressive effects possibly through mechanisms implicating inflammation.
- [#Lactobacillus plantarum, #Streptococcus thermophilus] [#Cypto-chlorogenic acid] - mulberry anthocyanins were specifically transformed by S. thermophilus (46.2%) and L. plantarum (43.6%) into #Chlorogenic acid, cypto-#Chlorogenic acid, #Caffeic acid and #Ferulic acid: all #Phenolic acids with potent anti-inflammatory benefits.
- [1.3]
- all anthocyanins reached a maximal plasma concentration 0.25–1 h post-dose. - - nonacylated anthocyanins were 4-fold and 4.7-fold more bioavailable than the acylated anthocyanins in red #Cabbage and purple #Carrot juice, respectively
- [1.4] [#Flavonoid]
- #Polyphenols exist in various forms including flavanols, flavanones and anthocyanins - [1.5] [#Parkinson’s Disease]
- higher habitual intakes of total #Flavonoid intake and, specifically anthocyanins (present in berries), were associated with a reduced PD risk of 40%, 24%, and 23% respectively.
