Analytical Standards & Laboratory Handling
Verified laboratory protocols, reconstitution parameters, and handling guidelines.
Pharmacological Profile & Mechanism of Action
What it is: Urolithin A is a natural metabolite produced by gut microflora from dietary ellagitannins and ellagic acid found in pomegranates, walnuts, and berries.
How it works: Urolithin A is a potent inducer of selective mitophagy: it activates the clearance of damaged, dysfunctional mitochondria via the autophagosome-lysosome pathway, stimulating subsequent mitochondrial biogenesis and restoring cellular bioenergetic efficiency in aging muscle fibers.
Why researchers study it: Researched in human clinical trials for improving muscle strength, aerobic endurance, and reversing biomarkers of age-related cellular senescence.
