Application


  • The Development and Evaluation of a Literature-Based Dietary Index for Gut Microbiota.: This study assesses the potential role of enterodiol in shaping gut microbiota, proposing a dietary index that could influence microbial diversity and activity. This research could lead to targeted dietary recommendations for enhancing gut health (Kase et al., 2024).

  • Roles of gender and smoking in the associations between urinary phytoestrogens and asthma/wheeze and lung function.: This analysis includes enterodiol among the phytoestrogens evaluated for their impact on respiratory health, revealing significant insights into how lifestyle factors modulate these effects (Zhang et al., 2024).

  • Obesity-associated inflammatory macrophage polarization is inhibited by capsaicin and phytolignans.: Investigates the efficacy of enterodiol and other phytolignans in modulating inflammatory processes in obesity, offering a potential pathway to mitigate obesity-related inflammation (Poynter et al., 2024).

  • The Perfect Cup, Coffee-Derived Polyphenols and Their Roles in Mitigating Factors Affecting Type 2 Diabetes Pathogenesis.: Highlights research on coffee-derived polyphenols, including enterodiol, exploring their therapeutic potentials in managing and preventing type 2 diabetes (Chapple et al., 2024).

  • Microbial Phenolic Metabolites Are Associated with Improved Cognitive Health.: Discusses how enterodiol, as a microbial metabolite from dietary phenolics, is linked to enhanced cognitive functions, stressing the importance of diet in mental health (Domínguez-López et al., 2024).


Biochem/physiol Actions

Referred to as a "mammalian lignan," enterodiol is produced by metabolism of plant lignans by intestinal flora.
