Abstract

-2-butene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid, 1-galloyl-β-glucose, pyrogallol, and dimethyl ellagic acid. In addition, the endogenous enzyme metabolite gallic acid can be continuously utilized by gut microbiota, as observed through the new method. Moreover, 83 differential metabolites were detected by extensive targeted metabolomics analysis. These findings clarify the absorption and biotransformation pathways of corilagin in experimental models, thereby providing mechanistic insights into the intestinal metabolism of corilagin.
