Microbiome-active flavanones stimulate the right bacteria to grow!
Akkermansia und Co. für die Darmbarriere
Neueste Studien analysieren die wechselseitigen Interaktionen der Pflanzenstoffe mit dem Mikrobiom. Die Flavanone selbst haben proliferierende und inhibierende Wirkungen auf einzelne Arten. Sie werden von bestimmten Mikroorganismen aufgenommen und in zahlreiche kleinere Phenolverbindungen gespalten, die auch wiederum Bakterienarten im Wachstum beeinflussen können [1],[2]. Zu den vorteilhaften Arten, die zum Wachstum angeregt werden, gehören die Akkermansia spp. und Faecalibacteria spp. sowie die kommensalen Arten (z.B. Bifidobacterium spp., Enterococcus spp., Clostridium spp.) [3],[4].Gleichzeitig wird das Firmicutes/ Bacteriodetes Verhältnis gesenkt [5], was sich gewichtsreduzierend und förderlich auf die Darmbarriere auswirkt. Potenziell pathogenen Keime (E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium) [6] werden inhibiert.
As microbial degradation products of the flavanones (metabolites) e.g. Ferulic acid, isoferulic acid, dihydroferulic acid, dihydrocaffeeic acid, hydrozenmic acid or phloroeic acid are generated. These compounds have a positive effect on the barrier function of the intestine and reduce intestinal inflammatory reactions. Consumption over 12 weeks, naringenin lowers the calprotectin leveli n the stool. This is a biomarker that indicates intestinal inflammation [7]. The microbiome therefore provides practically an entire pharmacy for its carrier derived from the flavanons (in case they reach it). Metabolites differ in structure and abundande depending on the individual and intestinal activity [8]. Chen et al. identified 3- (4 ́-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid (HPPS) as a degradation product of naringenin, which has various health-promoting properties [9]. Among other things, it even effectively prevents influenza infection [10]. Naringenin stimulates both the growth of the commensal species and their activity. This includes the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), which further increases the pharmacy in the gut [11]. Stevens et al. have shown that Enterobacteriaceae (Proteobacteria) are inhibited, which are increasingly formed in old age. For example, this is just one of many reasons why microbiome-active naringenin can be used to protect against age-related diseases. El Nagger et al. made naringenin directly accessible to the gut microbiome for the first time in 2020 and were thus able to use the anti-inflammatory effect of flavanone to achieve maximum cell protection. El Nagger et al. were thus able to prevent induced ulcerative colitis in rabbits [12]. Inflammatory markers such as TNFα decreased and the intestinal mucus layer remained intact. Naringenin is able to improve the mucus layer [13] and intestinal barrier function [14]. Especially if these are accompanied by inflammatory reactions [15]. A sufficiently thick mucus layer together with an intact epithelial cell layer determines the functionality of the intestinal barrier [16]. The citrusflavanones stimulate the intestinal Lactobacillus spp., Akkermansia spp. and Ruminococcus spp. to grow [17]. In particular, the occurrence of the Akkermansia species is associated with intestinal health and a functioning intestinal barrier function [18] [19].
