Ellagic acid is a naturally occurring compound found primarily in pomegranates. Not surprisingly, ellagic acid has become increasingly popular as a dietary supplement in recent years.
The China Pomegranate Ellagic Acid Factory has become one of the world’s leading sources of ellagic acid, producing a high quality supplement that is quickly becoming the solution of choice for those who want to maintain optimal health the natural way. Rivo is an excellent choice to provide pomegranate extract ellagic acid.
Ellagic acid has a variety of bioactive functions, and here we explore the benefits of ellagic acid and why Chinese pomegranate ellagic acid plant is a favorite among health enthusiasts.
Antioxidant properties of ellagic acid
1、Scavenging free radicals
Since the 1950s, the antioxidant properties of ellagic acid in vivo and in vitro have been continuously explored and researched, and more and more research results have shown that ellagic acid has strong free radical scavenging and antioxidant ability. Ellagic acid has a scavenging effect on both oxygen radicals and hydroxyl radicals, and its ability to scavenge free radicals is higher in size than antioxidants such as sesquiterpene, olive leaf extract and luteolin.
2、Inhibit lipid peroxidation
In terms of lipid peroxidation inhibition, ellagic acid is considered to be the most effective inhibitor of microsomal NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation initiation, and ellagic acid can also strongly inhibit lipid peroxidation induced by adriamycin. Ellagic acid inhibits iron myoglobin/hydrogen peroxide-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ellagic acid prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO) induced by exogenous substances in T cells, inhibits reactive oxygen species (ros) production and ameliorates cell death caused by cytotoxins.
3、Other antioxidant activities
Ellagic acid can reduce cell damage caused by radiation, hydrogen peroxide and mitomycin C in mouse bone marrow cells. Ellagic acid effectively inhibited the oxidation of DCDHF induced by peroxynitrite as well as the oxidation of peroxynitrite itself. At the same time, ellagic acid prevented peroxynitrite-induced single-strand breaks of pTZ 18U plasmid DNA and the nitration of tyrosinyl groups in calf serum proteins. Thus, in vitro, ellagic acid protects biomolecules from nitrite-induced oxidative and nitrosative damage.
Other actions of ellagic acid
Activation of pancreatic astrocytes is an important cause of conditions such as pancreatic fibrosis and acute pancreatitis. Ellagic acid inhibits interleukin 1b (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced activator protein-1 and mitogen-activated protein kinase activity, thereby inhibiting the conversion of nascent pancreatic astrocytes into an activated fibrillogenic phenotype. Ellagic acid acts as a secondary metabolite against eosinophil activity in a β-glucan peritonitis model. Ellagic acid is a potent inhibitor of eosinophils and can be used to treat allergic inflammation. Ellagic acid has hepatoprotective effects as it resists carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity in vivo and in vitro, and also resists tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced lipid peroxidation.
Melanocytes are found in the basal layer of the epidermis, where melanin is produced. The raw material for melanin production is tyrosine, which must be successively converted by tyrosinase into dopa, dopaquinone and finally melanin. Ellagic acid blocks melanin production by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase.
Therefore, high purity ellagic acid is mainly used as an additive in pharmaceuticals, health food and cosmetics as a functional factor for antioxidant, virus suppression against human immunodeficiency, skin whitening, etc.
