Abstract

There is considerable current interest in the neuroprotective effects of flavonoids. This study focuses on the potential for dietary flavonoids, and their known physiologically relevant metabolites, to enter the brain endothelium and cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) using well-established in vitro models (brain endothelial cell lines and ECV304 monolayers co-cultured with C6 glioma cells). We report that the citrus flavonoids, hesperetin, naringenin and their relevant in vivo metabolites, as well as the dietary anthocyanins and in vivo forms, cyanidin-3-rutinoside and pelargonidin-3-glucoside, are taken up by two brain endothelial cell lines from mouse (b.END5) and rat (RBE4). In both cell types, uptake of hesperetin and naringenin was greatest, increasing significantly with time and as a function of concentration. In support of these observations we report for the first time high apparent permeability (Papp) of the citrus flavonoids, hesperetin and naringenin, across the in vitro BBB model (apical to basolateral) relative to their more polar glucuronidated conjugates, as well as those of epicatechin and its in vivo metabolites, the dietary anthocyanins and to specific phenolic acids derived from colonic biotransformation of flavonoids. The results demonstrate that flavonoids and some metabolites are able to traverse the BBB, and that the potential for permeation is consistent with compound lipophilicity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
