Resveratrol (RSV) was known to be metabolised by the gut microbiota to dihydroresveratrol, lunularin (LUNU), and (or) 3,4'-dihydroxy--stilbene (DHST). We describe here for the first time that LUNU can be further dehydroxylated, but only at the 3-position, to yield 4-hydroxydibenzyl, a novel metabolite found in human urine after RSV intake in 41 out of 59 healthy participants. In contrast, DHST was not further dehydroxylated, and thus, 4-hydroxy--stilbene was not detected as a gut microbial metabolite of RSV. Faecal incubations confirmed the results.
白藜芦醇(RSV)已知可被肠道微生物群代谢为二氢白藜芦醇、落叶松脂素(LUNU)和(或)3,4'-二羟基-二苯乙烯(DHST)。我们在这里首次描述,LUNU 可进一步去羟基化,但仅在 3 位,生成 4-羟基二苄基,这是在 59 名健康参与者摄入 RSV 后,41 人的尿液中发现的一种新型代谢物。相比之下,DHST 没有进一步去羟基化,因此,4-羟基-二苯乙烯没有被检测为 RSV 的肠道微生物代谢物。粪便孵育实验证实了这一结果。
