Bioavailability of Dietary Polyphenols and Gut Microbiota Metabolism: Antimicrobial Properties

TL;DR: This paper revises and discusses these antimicrobial activities of dietary polyphenols and their relevance for human health, shedding light on the importance of polyphenol structure recognition by specific enzymes produced by intestinal microbial taxa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple functional roles of anthocyanins in plant-environment interactions.

TL;DR: In addition to the most frequently discussed putative roles of anthocyanins as antioxidants and sunscreens, other less-explored possibilities might equally serve to ameliorate plant function under, for example, under conditions of mineral imbalance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated metabolomics for abiotic stress responses in plants

TL;DR: Integrated 'omics' analysis, centered on metabolomics with a series of plant resources differing in their flavonoid accumulation, showed experimentally that flavonoids play a major role in antioxidation in vivo and suggested the role of flav onoids in the vacuole.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flavonoids: a metabolic network mediating plants adaptation to their real estate

TL;DR: The application of advanced gene technologies for targeted reprogramming of the flavonoid pathway in plants is reviewed to understand its molecular functions and explore opportunities for major improvements in forage plants enhancing animal health and production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plants under Stress: Involvement of Auxin and Cytokinin.

TL;DR: Current knowledge on the function of auxin and cytokinin in redirecting growth induced by abiotic stress is reviewed in order to deduce their potential points of crosstalk.

REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES: Metabolism, Oxidative Stress, and Signal Transduction

TL;DR: The mechanisms of ROS generation and removal in plants during development and under biotic and abiotic stress conditions are described and the possible functions and mechanisms for ROS sensing and signaling in plants are compared with those in animals and yeast.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactive oxygen gene network of plants

TL;DR: In Arabidopsis, a network of at least 152 genes is involved in managing the level of ROS, and this network is highly dynamic and redundant, and encodes ROS-scavenging and ROS-producing proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant properties of phenolic compounds

TL;DR: It is now possible to establish the antioxidant activities of plant-derived flavonoids in the aqueous and lipophilic phases, and to assess the extent to which the total antioxidant potentials of wine and tea can be accounted for by the activities of individual polyphenols.
Journal ArticleDOI

MYB transcription factors in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: The elucidation ofMYB protein function and regulation that is possible in Arabidopsis will provide the foundation for predicting the contributions of MYB proteins to the biology of plants in general.

Advances in flavonoid research since 1992.

TL;DR: Some of the recent advances in flavonoid research are reviewed and the role of anthocyanins and flavones in providing stable blue flower colours in the angiosperms is outlined.
