Chemistry:Pentagalloylglucose
Pentagalloylglucose, or more specifically 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose, is the pentagallic acid ester of glucose. It is a gallotannin and the precursor of ellagitannins.[1]
Pentagalloylglucose can precipitate proteins,[2] including human salivary α-amylase.[3]
Natural occurrence
Pentagalloylglucose can be found in Punica granatum (pomegranate),[4] Elaeocarpus sylvestris,[5] Rhus typhina (Staghorn sumac),[6] Paeonia suffruticosa (Tree Peony),.,[7] Mangifera indica (mango) [8] and Bouea macrophylla Griffith (maprang).[9]
Biosynthesis
The enzyme beta-glucogallin-tetrakisgalloylglucose O-galloyltransferase uses 1-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose and 1,2,3,6-tetrakis-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose to produce D-glucose and pentagalloylglucose.
Metabolism
Tellimagrandin II is formed from pentagalloylglucose by oxidative dehydrogenation and coupling of 2 galloyl groups.
β-glucogallin: 1,2,3,4,6-pentagalloyl-β-D-glucose galloyltransferase is an enzyme found in the leaves of Rhus typhina that catalyzes the galloylation of 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose to 3-O-digalloyl-1,2,4,6-tetra-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose (hexagalloylglucose).[6]
Chemistry
Pentagalloylglucose can undergo oxidation reactions which are depending on the pH.[10]
Research
Pentagalloylglucose has been studied for its potential use as an antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, antidiabetic, and antioxidant.[11] It has also been studied for radioprotection.[5] This compound helps stabilize the elastin and collagen in vascular tissues[12] and restores the biomechanical properties of arterial ECM.[13] In addition, pentagalloylglucose has shown to reduce arterial calcification and helps promote extracellular matrix preservation in animal models of abdominal aortic aneurysm.[14] In vitro studies with mouse C2C12 myoblast cells have shown the PGG helps in lowering reactive oxygen species (ROS) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expression in a dose-dependent manner.
