사람 장내세균에 의한 폰시린과 나린진의 대사

Poncirin and naringin which are the flavanone rhamnoglucoside showed anti-inflammatory activity as the major component of fruit of Poncirus trifoliata. Poncirin was metabolized by intestinal bacteria of human and rats. Among the human intestinal bacteria, Bacteroides JY-6 converted a poncirin to naringin, ponciretin-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, naringenin-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, naringenin and ponciretin and did a naringin to poncirin, ponciretin-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, naringenin-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, naringenin and ponciretin.
