Product Data
Biological target:
Procyanidin B1 is a polyphenolic flavonoid isolated from commonly eaten fruits, binds to TLR4/MD-2 complex, and has anti-inflammatory activity.
In vitro activity:
The production of TNF-α was significantly decreased by procyanidin B1 in LPS-treated THP1 cells (p < 0.05). Procyanidin B1 also significantly suppressed levels of phosphorylated p38 MAPK and NF-κB protein, as well as mRNA levels of MD-2, TRAF-6, and NF-κB (all p < 0.05). Procyanidin B1 can compete with LPS for binding to the TLR4-MD-2 heterodimer and suppress downstream activation of p38 MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways. Reference: Mol Cell Biochem. 2015 Sep;407(1-2):89-95. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26037075/
In vivo activity:
Flavangenol suppressed intrahepatic fat accumulation in Western diet-loaded Tsumura Suzuki Obese Diabetes (TSOD) mice, which develop various metabolic diseases. Procyanidin B1, one of the major components of Flavangenol, also suppressed fat accumulation and induced mRNA expression of the fatty acid oxidative enzymes. As mentioned above, Flavangenol showed a significant suppressive effect in the NAFLD model, and it was suggested that the molecular mechanism is induction of fatty acid oxidation, with the effect mainly attributed to procyanidin B1.
