Transformation of Mangiferin to Norathyriol by Human Fecal Matrix in Anaerobic Conditions: Comprehensive NMR of the Xanthone Metabolites, Antioxidant Capacity, and Comparative Cytotoxicity Against Cancer Cell Lines:

TLDR
Mangiferin metabolites were identified and quantitated in the fermentation broths by high performance liquid chromatography–diode array detection–electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, and structures confirmed unequivocally by nuclear magnetic resonance, after purification by semipreparative HPLC.
Abstract
Several natural drugs (termed prodrugs) when administered orally undergo transformation by intestinal bacteria, producing metabolites, which may be more active than the parent compound. Mangiferin ...

In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion and Colonic Catabolism of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Pulp Polyphenols.

TL;DR: The extensive transformation of mango pulp polyphenols through the gastrointestinal tract and by the resident gut microbiota is highlighted, with the resultant formation of mainly simple phenolics, which can be considered as biomarkers of the colonic metabolism of mango.

Metabolism of mangiferin by human intestinal bacteria in vitro

TL;DR: Mangiferin can be metabolized in vitro by human intestinal bacteria into its aglycone (1, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydroxyxanthen) by MS and NMR.

Phenolic compounds and squalene in olive oils: the concentration and antioxidant potential of total phenols, simple phenols, secoiridoids, lignansand squalene

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to evaluate the phenolic antioxidant and squalene content in a range of olive and seed oils, and both the nature and source of olive oil consumed should be differentiated in ascertaining cancer risk.

Characterization and quantitation of polyphenolic compounds in bark, kernel, leaves, and peel of mango (Mangifera indica L.).

TL;DR: Mangiferin, detected at high concentrations in young leaves, in bark, and in old leaves (Itamaraka = 94 g/kg), shows an exceptionally strong antioxidant capacity.

Formulation strategies for absorption windows.

TL;DR: Methods to increase the residence of drug formulations at or above the absorption window are discussed in this review, including bioadhesive microspheres that have a slow intestinal transit and the gastroretentive dosage system, which is based on multiparticulates or large single unit systems.

Identification of Lignans as Major Components in the Phenolic Fraction of Olive Oil

TL;DR: Lignans, as natural components of the diet, may be important modulators of cancer chemopreventive activity and are shown for the first time that the lignans (+)-1-acetoxypinoresinol and (+)-pinoresinols are major components ofThe phenolic fraction of olive oils.
