Dietary Polyphenols Inhibit Production of Trimethylamine, a Gut Microbial Metabolite Associated With Aging and Atherosclerosis

Andrew P NeilsonProf. Andrew P. Neilson, North Carolina State University, USA, will join the Polyphenols Applications 2023 congress and will present a talk entitled "Dietary Polyphenols Inhibit Production of Trimethylamine, a Gut Microbial Metabolite Associated With Aging and Atherosclerosis".

Cardiovascular disease causes ~32% of deaths worldwide. Elevated blood trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) levels were identified in 2011 as a risk factor for atherosclerosis development. TMAO is formed through a microbial-host axis involving oxidation of dietary choline to trimethylamine (TMA) by gut bacteria containing the cutC/D gene cluster. TMA is absorbed into circulation and oxidized to TMAO by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenase 3. TMAO promotes cardiovascular disease through multiple mechanisms.

There is no FDA-approved drug to control TMAO levels, underscoring the need for complementary strategies to manage TMAO production. Dietary phytochemicals such as phenolics represent one potential solution. Phenolics have shown promise for altering the structure and function of the gut microbiome and providing cardioprotective benefits. Interest is emerging in TMAO-lowering activities of phenolics. There is a need to rapidly screen large numbers of phenolics and other dietary bioactives (compounds foods, extracts, etc.) to identify potential lead compounds for subsequent preclinical animal studies.

Prof. Neilson and his team developed and validated a high-throughput, low-volume 96-well ex vivo-in vitro anaerobic fecal fermentation method using human fecal samples and choline-d9 substrate and measuring the resultant TMA-d9. They paired this with a rapid, high-throughput analytical platform by employing an automated liquid handling robot for sample prep and a fast, sensitive 96-well LC-MS/MS method. Model validation experiments confirmed that choline-d9 utilization and TMA-d9 production occur with ~1:1 stoichiometry, with no background interference, and are dependent upon the presence of gut bacteria. Using this model, they identified chlorogenic acid, epicatechin and foods rich in these phenolics (coffee, cocoa and artichoke) as potent TMA production inhibitors.

In vitro and animal studies will elucidate the mechanisms of inhibition and demonstrate efficacy in vivo. TMA/TMAO-lowering activities may be a previously unknown mechanism by which dietary phenolics exert their cardioprotective effects.

Hormetic response to B-type procyanidin ingestion may involve stress-related neuromodulation via the gut–brain axis: Preclinical and clinical observations

Naomi OsakabeDr. Naomi Okasabe, from Shibaura Institute of Technology, Japan will join the Polyphenols Applications 2023 congress which will be held in Malta, on September 28-29, 2023, and present the  "Hormetic response to B-type procyanidin ingestion may involve stress-related neuromodulation via the gut–brain axis: Preclinical and clinical observations".

B-type procyanidins, a series of catechin oligomers, reduce cardiovascular disease risk and impact central nervous system (CNS) function. Comprehensive analyses of previous reports indicate an optimal mid-range dose for the hemodynamic effects of B-type procyanidins, with null responses at lower or higher doses, suggesting hormesis. Dr. Okasabe previously confirmed the hormesis of hemodynamic responses to B-type procyanidins in animal studies, in addition, our work has linked these effects to the CNS. In this presentation, we evaluate the hormetic response elicited by B-type procyanidins, recontextualizing the results of intervention trials. In addition, Dr. Okasabe will discuss the possibility that this hormetic response to B-type procyanidins arises via CNS neurotransmitter receptors.

Join us in Polyphenols Applications 2023 and benefit from the experience of professional researchers like Dr. Okasabe.

Marine Polyphenols - Characterization and Applications

Monica jordheim1Prof. Monica Jordheim, University of Bergen, Norway will join the Polyphenols Applications 2023 congress to present a talk on "Marine Polyphenols - Characterization and Applications".

The world's population is projected to reach 9 billion by 2050, and utilization of bioresources will be increasingly important for food, feed, and health applications. Seaweeds, or macroalgae, are a sustainable biomass and they play an increasing role in aquaculture and marine bioresource development. However, they are still identified as an underexplored resource – and marine polyphenols are less explored compared to terrestrial polyphenols.

Prof. Jordheim will, in this presentation, discuss the importance of quantification and identification at the molecular level in order to uncover and understand the algae's potential in industrial applications. The experienced challenges in working with seaweed biomass compared to terrestrial biomass will be addressed, and results from industrial projects will be presented.

About Prof. Jordheim

Prof. Jordheim has over twenty years of experience in quantification and identification of polyphenols, including full molecular elucidation using NMR and HR-LC-MS. She has co-authored several book chapters on the chemistry of anthocyanins and identified more than twenty new structures from nature. The recent years Jordheim has focused on polyphenols from seagrasses and seaweeds including industrial collaborations and innovation projects. Prof. Jordheim is also the head of education at the Department of Chemistry at University of Bergen, Norway, and the leader of the larger research group Bioresources and Pharmaceutical Chemistry (BPC).

The committee awarded 3 Poster Presentations during Polyphenols Applications 2022

Screen-2

During the 15th #PolyphenolsWorldCongress which was held on September 28-30 2022 in Valenci, the committee chose 3 Best Poster Presentations which were distinguished by their quality of research and presentation.

IMG 0296

Klara Supikova, Palacky University Olomouc, Czech Republic was discerened an award for her poster entitled "Sulfated Phenolic Acids are Common Plant Metabolites".

This study describes mainly novel sulfated derivatives of phenolic acids identified in plants. Only some of these compounds were detected before, nevertheless, only in marine species (seagrasses and algae).

Klara stated: "In the future, I would like to focus on the identification of other unknown potentially sulfated compounds present in nature, as we already know, the plant "sulfatome" is quite rich in some cases. A challenging task for me and my colleagues will be the discovery of sulfotransferases responsible for the biosynthesis. Moreover, the definition of the physiological functions of sulfated phenolics in plants remains also unclear, thus, I would like to direct my research activities to answer these questions."


Picture1

Another poster award was given to Sandra Mariño-Cortegoso, University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain, for her contribution "Recovery of Bioactive Compounds From Lime and Lemon By-Products Through Sustainable Methodologies". 

When asked, Sandra affirmed: “This work is a part of the research project VALICET focuses on the valorization of fruit by-products using green extraction technologies for future approaches in the application of fruit by-products as food ingredients and additives through the recovery of added-value compounds. Future work will be done on the encapsulation of the bioactive compounds to develop ingredients, edible and active packaging and coatings to extend food shelf-life."


Katia Ruel Poster 2022

Katia Ruel, ADKALIS - Groupe BERKEM, France, was also discerned an award for her poster contribution "Plant Polyphenolic Extract From Berkem Biosolutions® for Antimicrobial Protection of Cosmetic Products".

Katia stated: "In keeping with my interest in the activity of polyphenols in the domains of cosmetics and of protection of wood  and grains against biological predators, my research in collaboration with Groupe Berkem R&D laboratories will deepen understanding of the mechanisms underlying the action of these natural plant polyphenolics extracts.”


The scientific committee of Polyphenols Applications congratulates the winners once again. We will be looking forward to learning about their progress during the next edition.

3 Short Oral Presentation Awards were given in 2022

Screen-15x8

Many Short Oral Presentations were submitted during the 15th #PolyphenolsWorldCongress, held on September 28-30 2022 in Valencia, Spain. The committee voted for the best 3 of these short oral presentations.

Picture Paul Besrukow

Paul Besrukow, Geisenheim University, Germany, was awarded the first prize of the Best Short Oral Presentation 2022 for his studies on "Grape Cane Stilbenoids as Biopesticides in Organic Viticulture".

Mr. Besrukow is working on the analysis, valorization and application of polyphenols extracted from agricultural by-products. In scope of the joint project VITIFIT, which focuses on the reduction of copper usage in organic viticulture, he investigates the antifungal efficacy of differently formulated stilbenoid-rich grape cane extracts on Plasmopara viticola, causal agent of grapevine downy mildew. 

 


 

SchmutzC picture

Cornelia Schmutz, University of Vienna, Austria, received the second best short oral presentation award for her contribution on "Anthocyanin-Rich Berry Extracts and Chemotherapy: A Critical Combination". 

Irinotecan, as pro-drug of SN-38, is a frequently chosen chemotherapy option for colorectal cancer. Bioactive plant ingredients, so-called anthocyanins, are promising candidates to possibly alleviate adverse effects induced by the topoisomerase (TOPO) poison SN-38. Hence, the FWF funded project is centered on potential protective or adverse effects of anthocyanin-rich berry extracts during chemotherapy. In vitro experiments already showed reduced DNA/TOPO I intermediates, in both tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic colon cells.

Future work will focus on the relevance of the observed effects inin vivomodels of tumor-bearing animals.


PROF KAMBIZI PIC

The last Best Short Oral award was discerned to Learnmore Kambizi, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, South Africa, for his short oral contribution "Pigmented Potatoes: A Potential Panacea for Food and Nutrition Security and Health?"

Prof. Kambizi is a full professor of Botany at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology, South Africa. His main interests are Ethnobotany, Phytomedicine, Botany, Medicinal Plants, Sustainable utilization and conservation, Food and Nutrition Security.

His interests in working with Traditional Medical Practitioners are a major part of his work. Prof Kambizi was appointed the first Director of African Centre for Herbal Research based in Nigeria, a position he holds to date. Although Prof Kambizi is well vested in medicinal plants, he has interests in food and nutrition security with the vision 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals in mind. These interests have led him to start work on indigenous underutilised pigmented potato cultivars. This is because of their immense potential in ameliorating food and nutrition insecurity as shown in this review that he put together. So far, he has worked on the role of root zone temperature on physiological growth and phytochemical constituents as well as biological activity, in Salad Blue, Pink Fir Apple and Highland Burgundy Red pigmented potato cultivars, among other studies. Although phytochemical constituent results look promising, the biological activities are not conclusive. Therefore, further studies are required to elucidate these activities.

Prof Kambizi stated: "Going forwards, I am interested in studying more cultivars from different parts of the world to see their responses to different biotic and abiotic stresses especially in South Africa where I am based, isolation of the main phenolic compounds, elucidation of their activities, and bioavailability of these compounds especially after processing. Bioavailability studies post processing will potentially open insights into the quality and quantity of the compounds that would be useful in human physiology and therefore link these compounds to the health benefits of these potatoes. I am actively looking for funding and collaborators to pursue these studies and I am open to any such around the globe."

Polyphenol-Protein Interactions - Still Many Challenges to Cope With...

Polyphenols 2022 Speakers -  Sascha RohnDr. Sascha Rohn, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany, will join us this year to present a talk entitled “Polyphenol-Protein Interactions - Still Many Challenges to Cope With...”

More and more researchers are dealing with the characterization of interactions of polyphenols with other food ingredients. In this ocasion, proteins are interesting, as they can interact (non-covalently), but als form (covalent) reactions products, highly depending on the interaction/reaction conditions, as well as on the initial properties of the polyphenols and the proteins. Cosequently, interaction and reaction products might affect technofunctional and physiological properties (of the corresponding foods) as well. One can even think of covalent polymeric reaction products that affect color, solubility and lead to unrevealed nutritional consequences. Overall, this is a bunch of complex challenges that need to be considered.

Beneficial Health Effects of Polyphenol-Rich Fruit Juice in Humans

Polyphenols 2022 Speakers - Prof. Elke RichlingProf. Elke Richling, University of Kaiserslautern, Germany, will join Polyphenols Applications 2022 to present recent advances on the "Beneficial Health Effects of Polyphenol-Rich Fruit Juice in Humans".

In vitro and in vivo studies provide evidence that polyphenol-rich fruit juices and their extracts can influence lipid metabolism as well as improve DNA integrity.

To substantiate preliminary findings, Prof. Richling and her team performed a placebo-controlled intervention study with 36 male healthy subjects (age 20–40 years, body mass index 19–25 kg/m2). After one week washout period, the volunteers consumed 750 mL/day of a polyphenol-rich fruit juice (containing chokeberry, cranberry, and pomegranate) or placebo drink for eight weeks. Blood sampling was performed after the washout period as well as after four and eight weeks of intervention and used to analyse biomarkers of the lipid metabolism like blood platelet cyclic adenosine monophosphate phosphodiesterase (cAMP-PDE) activity. In addition, effects on DNA strand breaks and on body weight/composition were monitored.

The results showed a significant inhibition of cAMP-PDE activity (p<0.01) and decrease in DNA strand breaks (p<0.05) during juice consumption. Consuming juice, an increased fat-free mass (p<0.05) was found after four weeks, whereas a significant (p<0.05) elevation in body weight was observed in control group.

Taken together their results indicate health beneficial effects associated with polyphenol-rich fruit juice consumption.

Join us in Polyphenols Applications 2022 to know more about these findings and many more topics.

Gut Microbial Metabolism of Dietary Polyphenols in Health and Disease

Polyphenols 2022- Jan ClaesenDr. Jan Claesen, from Cleveland Clinic, USA, will join us this year to present a talk entitled “Gut Microbial Metabolism of Dietary Polyphenols in Health and Disease” in a session dedicated to “Polyphenols & Microbiota – Recent Advances & Perspectives”.

Flavonoids are consumed in a largely glycosylated form, rendering them poorly available for small intestinal absorption and subsequent systemic distribution. Upon reaching the colon, select commensal gut bacteria can catabolize these flavonoid substrates into smaller monophenolic acids.

In his talk, Dr. Claesen will discuss the contribution of microbial catabolism to the beneficial effects of dietary flavonoids in health and in disease.

Evaluation of Microstructure and Green Extraction Methodologies for Recovering Polyphenols From Sweet Potato Peel

Polyphenols 2022 Speakers -  2Dr. Juan Manuel Castagnini, from the University of Valencia, Spain, will join us this year to present a talk entitled “Evaluation of Microstructure and Green Extraction Methodologies for Recovering Polyphenols From Sweet Potato Peel”.

The re-use of by-products from food processing and their re-introduction in the production cycle is a strategy that is worth considering for the development of a more sustainable food industry. Although many actors and industrial sectors could help to tackle the limitation of the traditional food system approach, researchers can contribute by innovations able to create a better and more nutritious diet and a sustainable food system. In this sense, the recovery of bioactive compounds from by-products using innovative non-thermal green technologies is an interesting approach to develop new ingredients and products.

Purple and orange sweet potato peel could be an interesting source of bioactive compounds. In this study, through pulsed electric field assisted extraction and supercritical solvent extraction different extracts were obtained and characterized. Also, the microstructure of the solids residues recovered after extraction were analysed to better understand the effect of extraction processes on the matrix.

Chemical and Sensory Evaluation of Astringency Modulation in Red Wine

Polyphenols 2022 Speakers - Fabian WeberDr. Fabian Weber, University of Bonn, Germany, will join Polyphenols Applications 2022. He will give a talk on the "Chemical and Sensory Evaluation of Astringency Modulation in Red Wine".

Besides the color, the mouthfeel and astringency are the most relevant quality aspects of red wine. Anthocyanins are the coloring principle and tannins are the key compounds for astringency.

Both compounds are extracted from the grapes during winemaking and both compounds are subjected to extensive structural changes during wine ageing. The corresponding reactions that lead to a stable color and an attenuated astringency are closely related and are affected by the wine matrix.

The goal of Dr. Weber's study was to understand the role of polysaccharides in grapes and wine regarding the formation of polymeric pigments and the masking of astringency.

Join the congress this June in Valencia & Online to learn more about the sensory properties of polyphenols in different matrices.
