Studies on flavonoid metabolism. Metabolism of (+)-[14C] catechin in the rat and guinea pig
Abstract
1. The fate of (+)-[U-(14)C]catechin and (+)-[ring A-(14)C]catechin has been studied in the guinea pig and rat. 2. (+)-[U-(14)C]Catechin was shown to give rise to labelled phenolic acids, labelled phenyl-gamma-valerolactones and (14)CO(2). 3. (+)-[ring A-(14)C]-Catechin did not give rise to labelled phenolic acids, but labelled phenyl-gamma-valerolactones were detected together with a higher proportion of (14)CO(2). 4. Administered [(14)C]delta-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-gamma-valerolactone gave rise to labelled m-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid in the rat whereas administered [(14)C]m-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid gave rise to a compound yielding labelled m-hydroxybenzoic acid on hydrolysis. 5. The distribution of radioactivity in the urine and faeces of (+)-[(14)C]catechin-fed animals is described; a high proportion of residual radioactivity was found in urine that had been exhaustively extracted with diethyl ether.
