Urolithin A is a naturally occurring compound produced by the metabolism in the body of vegetable tannins (ellagic acid and ellagitannins) found in food. It is also a mitochondrial modulator, regulating mitochondrial function in hematopoietic stem cells, as well as restoring blood regeneration in aging hematopoietic stem cells. In addition, Urolithin A is a ligand for the Aromatic Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR), which promotes the anti-tumor function of CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) in an AhR-independent manner. Moreover, Urolithin A directly binds to ERK1/2 kinase, enhances its activation, and subsequently phosphorylates and activates the autophagy initiation factor ULK1, thereby promoting autophagy.Urolithin A possesses anti-aging, anti-proliferative, anti-oxidative, anti-cancer and neuroprotective activities.
Urolithin A is a natural product with antiproliferative and antioxidant activity. Urolithin A is formed by metabolism from polyphenols found in some nuts and fruits, particularly pomegranates. Urolithin A has been shown to cross the blood brain barrier, and may have neuroprotective effects against Alzheimer’s Disease.
