  • Title: Enzyme-esterified grape seed proanthocyanidin derivatives as novel lipid-lowering agents.
    Author: Chen M, Ye S, Deng M, Zhang L, Yu S.
    Journal: Food Res Int; 2024 Oct; 193():114860. PubMed ID: 39160055.
    Abstract:
    Grape seed proanthocyanidin (GSP), as a natural antioxidant, has great potential to be developed into a lipid-lowering agent, but its low lipophilicity and stability greatly limit its application. In this study, an enzymatic esterification strategy was developed to introduce fatty acid chains into GSP, resulting in the successful synthesis of a series of new GSP derivatives. The results showed that up to 85% conversion of GSP and 35% TAG inhibition rate of GSP derivatives were achieved. The structures of GSP derivatives were identified by UPLC-MS/MS, and seven derivatives were confirmed as catechin-3'-O-laurate, epicatechin-3'-O-laurate, epicatechin gallate-3″,5″-di-O-laurate, epicatechin gallate-3',3″,5″-tri-O-laurate, procyanidin B1-3',3″-di-O-laurate, procyanidin B2-3',3″-di-O-laurate and procyanidin C1-3',3″,3‴-tri-O-laurate by NMR. GSP derivatives exhibited higher inhibitory effects on lipid accumulation, intracellular TAG and TC than parent GSP. These results indicate that GSP derivatives have potential as lipid-lowering agents for utilization in the food industry.
