Small molecule activators of sirtuins extend Saccharomyces cerevisiae lifespan (2003, background): “Both quercetin and piceatannol are polyphenols, members of a large and diverse group of plant secondary metabolites that include flavones, stilbenes, flavanones, isoflavones, catechins (flavan-3-ols), chalcones, tannins and anthocyanidin”
Sirtuins: Sir2-related NAD-dependent protein deacetylases (2004, background): “Plant polyphenols such as resveratrol - which is found in grapes and red wine - have been associated with health benefits such as cardioprotection, neuroprotection, and cancer suppression [54-56].”
Health benefits of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) polyphenols and dietary fiber: a review (2014, background): “Phenolics (hydroxybenzenes) especially polyphenols (containing two or more phenolic groups) are ubiquitous in plant foods consumed by human and animals and one of the widest groups of a dietary supplements marketed worldwide (Ferguson 2001).”
Radical scavenging and antioxidant activity of tannic acid (2010, background): “…tannic acid has been shown to possess antioxidant (Lopes et al., 1999; Ferguson, 2001; Wu et al., 2004; Andrade et al., 2005), antimutagenic (Ferguson, 2001; Horikawa et al., 1994; Chen and Chung, 2000) and anticarcinogenic properties (Horikawa et al., 1994; Athar et al., 1989; Gali et al.,…”
