Hydroxytyrosol and dopamine metabolites: Anti-aggregative effect and neuroprotective activity against α-synuclein-induced toxicity.

The abnormal aggregation of the α-synuclein (αsyn) protein is involved in the formation of Lewy bodies in the brain of patients suffering from Parkinson disease (PD). Hydroxytyrosol (HT), a polyphenolic compound present in olives, olive oil, and wine, has been shown to inhibit aggregation and destabilise the αsyn aggregates, preventing neuronal cell death. However, very limited data have been published on the study of its metabolites. Therefore, this study investigated the capacity of the metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylethanol (MOPET), and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (MOPAL) to prevent the aggregation and toxic effects of αsyn fibrils. In vitro techniques, such as Thioflavin T (ThT), Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM), electrophoresis, thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide (MTT), and Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) were used. Our results show that among these three metabolites, DOPAL exerts the greatest effect, preventing aggregation and αsyn-induced neurotoxicity. In fact, DOPAL has the ability to completely inhibit αsyn fibril formation at low doses. Moreover, this metabolite has a potent destabilising effect on the αsyn fibrils. Concerning neuroprotection, DOPAL can counteract the toxicity induced by αsyn. The vitagene expression results show a possible relationship between the neuroprotection mechanism exhibited by DOPAL and the modulation of SIRT-2 and Hsp70.

Mitochondrial RNA methyltransferase TRMT61B is a new, potential biomarker and therapeutic target for highly aneuploid cancers.

Despite being frequently observed in cancer cells, chromosomal instability (CIN) and its immediate consequence, aneuploidy, trigger adverse effects on cellular homeostasis that need to be overcome by anti-stress mechanisms. As such, these safeguard responses represent a tumor-specific Achilles heel, since CIN and aneuploidy are rarely observed in normal cells. Recent data have revealed that epitranscriptomic marks catalyzed by RNA-modifying enzymes change under various stress insults. However, whether aneuploidy is associated with such RNA modifying pathways remains to be determined. Through an in silico search for aneuploidy biomarkers in cancer cells, we found TRMT61B, a mitochondrial RNA methyltransferase enzyme, to be associated with high levels of aneuploidy. Accordingly, TRMT61B protein levels are increased in tumor cell lines with an imbalanced karyotype as well as in different tumor types when compared to control tissues. Interestingly, while TRMT61B depletion induces senescence in melanoma cell lines with low levels of aneuploidy, it leads to apoptosis in cells with high levels. The therapeutic potential of these results was further validated by targeting TRMT61B in transwell and xenografts assays. We show that TRM61B depletion reduces the expression of several mitochondrial encoded proteins and limits mitochondrial function. Taken together, these results identify a new biomarker of aneuploidy in cancer cells that could potentially be used to selectively target highly aneuploid tumors.

Hydroxytyrosol in Foods: Analysis, Food Sources, EU Dietary Intake, and Potential Uses.

Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a phenolic compound with proven biological properties present in a limited number of foods such as table olives, virgin olive oil (VOO) and wines. The present work aims to evaluate the dietary intake of HT in the European (EU) population by compiling scattered literature data on its concentration in foods. The consumption of the involved foods was estimated based on the EFSA Comprehensive European Food Consumption Database. The updated average contents of HT are as follows: 629.1, 5.2 and 2.1 µg/g for olives, olive oil and wine, respectively. The HT estimated intake in the European Union (EU) adult population falls within 0.13-6.82 mg/day/person, with table olives and wine being the main contributors. The estimated mean dietary intake of HT in EU countries is 1.97 ± 2.62 mg/day. Greece showed the highest HT intake (6.82 mg/day), while Austria presented the lowest (0.13 mg/day). Moreover, HT is an authorized novel food ingredient in the EU that can be added to different foods. Since the estimated HT intake is substantially low, the use of HT as a food ingredient seems feasible. This opens new possibilities for revalorizing waste products from olive oil and olive production which are rich HT sources.

Short-Term Pilot Study to Evaluate the Impact of Salbi Educa Nutrition App in Macronutrients Intake and Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet: Randomized Controlled Trial.

Promoting a healthy diet is a relevant strategy for preventing non-communicable diseases. This study aims to evaluate the impact of an innovative tool, the SAlBi educa nutrition app, in primary healthcare dietary counseling to improve dietary profiles as well as adherence to the Mediterranean diet. A multi-center randomized control trial comprising 104 participants was performed. Both control (n = 49) and intervention (n = 55) groups attended four once-weekly sessions focusing on healthy eating habits and physical activity, over one month. As well as attending the meetings, the intervention group used the app, which provides self-monitoring and tailored dietary advice based on the Mediterranean diet model. In a second intervention (one arm trial), the potential of SAlBi educa was evaluated for three months during the COVID-19 pandemic. At 4 weeks, the intervention group had significantly increased their carbohydrate intake (7.7% (95% CI: 0.16 to 15.2)) and decreased their total fat intake (-5.7% (95% CI: -10.4 to -1.15)) compared to the control group. Significant differences were also found for carbohydrates (3.5% (95% CI: -1.0 to 5.8)), total fats (-5.9% (95% CI: -8.9 to -3.0)), fruits and vegetables (266.3 g/day (95% CI: 130.0 to 402.6)), legumes (7.7g/day (95% CI: 0.2 to 15.1)), starchy foods (36.4 g/day (95% CI: 1.1 to 71.7)), red meat (-17.5 g/day (95% CI: -34.0 to -1.1)), and processed meat (-6.6 g/day (95% CI: -13.1 to -0.1)) intakes during the COVID-19 pandemic. SAlBi educa is a useful tool to support nutrition counseling in primary healthcare, including in special situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Trial registration: ISRCTN57186362.

SAlBi educa (Tailored Nutrition App for Improving Dietary Habits): Initial Evaluation of Usability.

In recent years, the use of applications to improve dietary habits has increased. Although numerous nutrition apps are available on the market, only few have been developed by health and nutrition professionals based on scientific evidence and subsequently tested to prove their usability. The main objective of this study was to design, develop, and evaluate the usability of a tailored nutrition application to be used to promote healthy eating habits. In order to decide app design and content, three focus groups took place with fifteen professionals from primary healthcare, nutrition, and food science and computer science, as well as expert users. For the general and feedback message design, a reference model based on the scientific literature was developed. To address the multi-perspective approach of users' and external healthcare professionals' feedback, a one-day pilot testing with potential users and healthcare professionals was conducted with four focus groups. To evaluate the relevance and potential usability of the app a 1-month pilot test was conducted in a real-life environment. A total of 42 volunteers participated in the one-day pilot testing, and 39 potential users participated in the 1-month pilot test. The SAlBi educa app developed includes an online dietary record, a self-monitoring tool to evaluate dietary patterns, general and feedback messages, and examples of traditional Mediterranean recipes. The usability study showed that volunteers think that SAlBi educa is pleasant (59%) and easy to learn to use (94%). Over 84% of the volunteers declared that the nutritional messages were clear and useful. Volunteers stated that general and tailored recommendations, as well as self-monitoring, were SAlBi educa's most motivating and useful features. SAlBi educa is an innovative, user-friendly nutritional education tool with the potential to engage and help individuals to follow dietary habits based on the Mediterranean model.

Anti-VEGF Effect of Bioactive Indolic Compounds and Hydroxytyrosol Metabolites.

Angiogenesis is a key process involved in both cancer and cardiovascular diseases, the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) being the main triggers. The aim of this study was to determine the molecular mechanism underlying the potent inhibition of VEGF signaling by hydroxytyrosol (HT) metabolites and indolic compounds and establish a relation between their structure and bioactivity. Experiments involved the evaluation of their potential to inhibit VEGF on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by ELISA assay and their subsequent effect on the downstream signaling pathway (PLCγ1, Akt, and endothelial nitric oxide synthetase (eNOS)) by Western blot. Respectively, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL) (100 µM) and indole pyruvic acid (IPy) (1 mM) were capable of inhibiting VEGFR-2 activation with an IC50 value of 119 µM and 1.037 mM. The anti-angiogenic effect of DOPAL and IPy is mediated via PLCγ1. Additionally, DOPAL significantly increases eNOS phosphorylation, while IPy maintained it. These data provide for the first time evidence of the anti-angiogenic effect of DOPAL and IPy for future use as potential bioactive food ingredients.

Anthocyanins in Blueberries Grown in Hot Climate Exert Strong Antioxidant Activity and May Be Effective against Urinary Tract Bacteria.

Anthocyanins are extensively studied for their health-related properties, including antibacterial activity against urinary tract infections (UTI). Among common fruits, blueberries, with their remarkable antioxidant capacity, are one of the richest sources. Anthocyanin-rich extracts were obtained from four varieties: Snowchaser, Star, Stella Blue and Cristina Blue, grown in the hot climate of Southern Spain. Their total anthocyanins contents (TAC) were determined spectrophotometrically, and the anthocyanin profile by ultra high performance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometer (UHPLC-MS/MS). Their antioxidant activity was assessed by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, while antibacterial activity against strains isolated from UTI patients was assessed in vitro, helping to select the varieties with the highest bioactive potential. Star showed the highest TAC and antioxidant activity (1663 ± 159 mg of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (cy-3-O-glu) equivalents/100 g fresh weight (FW), 6345 ± 601 µmol Trolox equivalents (TE)/100 g FW, respectively), followed by Cristina Blue, Stella Blue and Snowchaser. As far as we know, this is the first time that cyanidin-3-rutinoside has been identified in blueberries. The extracts inhibited all the tested strains, MICs ranging from 0.4 mg/mL (for Stella Blue extract against UTI P. aeruginosa) to 9.5 mg/mL (for all extracts against UTI K. pneumoniae ssp. pneumoniae). This is the first study that assessed in vitro the antibacterial activity of blueberries against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Providencia stuartii and Micrococcus spp. strains isolated from UTI.

Chemical hazards in grapes and wine, climate change and challenges to face.

Climate change has an impact on the chemical risks associated to wine consumption related with grape development and microbial contamination. We can classify chemical hazards in wine into two groups: those present in grapes due to agricultural practices, environmental contamination or fungal growth and those coming from fermentation and the winemaking process. The first group includes mycotoxins, whilst the second encompasses ethyl carbamate, biogenic amines, sulfur dioxide and proteins used as technological ingredients such as fining material. Usually the effective control of chemical hazards is achieved by assuring that they either are minimized or absent in the final product since their removal is somewhat difficult and sometimes it may affect sensory properties, which is a major issue in wine. Interestingly, it is possible to give recommendations to avoid excess of these compounds, but more research is needed to face future challenges related to climate change and consumer demands.

Anti-VEGF Signalling Mechanism in HUVECs by Melatonin, Serotonin, Hydroxytyrosol and Other Bioactive Compounds.

Angiogenesis drives evolution and destabilisation of atherosclerotic plaques and the growth and expansion of tumour cells. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the main endogenous pro-angiogenic factor in humans. The aim was to provide insight into the anti-VEGF activity of bioactive compounds derived from aromatic amino acids (serotonin, melatonin, 3-indoleacetic acid, 5-hydroxytryptophol and hydroxytyrosol). Experiments involved endothelial cell migration (wound-healing assay), the molecular mechanisms (ELISA assay) and the downstream effects (phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLCγ1), protein kinase B (Akt) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) by Western blot) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The data suggest for the first time that hydroxytyrosol interacts with surface components of the endothelial cell membrane (, preventing VEGF from activating its receptor. Serotonin and 5-hydroxytryptophol significantly inhibited HUVEC migration (98% and 50%, respectively) following the same mechanism. Conversely to other bioactive compounds, the anti-angiogenic effect of melatonin, serotonin, 3-indoleacetic acid and 5-hydroxytryptophol is not mediated via PLCγ1. However, hydroxytyrosol inhibits PLCγ1 phosphorylation. Additionally, melatonin and serotonin maintained eNOS phosphorylation and hydroxytyrosol significantly activated eNOS-all via Akt. These data provide new evidence supporting the interest in melatonin, serotonin, 3-indoleacetic acid, 5-hydroxytryptophol and hydroxytyrosol for their further exploitation as anti-VEGF ingredients in food.

Melatonin, protocatechuic acid and hydroxytyrosol effects on vitagenes system against alpha-synuclein toxicity.

Preventing the abnormal assembly of α-synuclein (α-Syn) and the correct modulation of vitagenes system exercise strong neuroprotective effects. It has been reported that melatonin (MEL), protocatechuic acid (PCA) and hydroxytyrosol (HT) reduce α-Syn toxicity. Their effect on the vitagenes system of PC12 cells have not been explored yet. These bioactive can cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). Therefore, this work aims to evaluate the inhibitory and destabilising capacities of MEL, PCA, HT, and their combinations on α-Syn kinetics and effects on vitagenes system (sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1), sirtuin-2 (SIRT-2), heme oxygenase (HO-1) and heat shock protein 70 (Hsp-70)). In vitro techniques (Thioflavin T (ThT), Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM), electrophoresis, MTT assay and qPCR) were used. Compounds, both individually and simultaneously were able to decrease the toxicity induced by α-Syn. Concurrently, occurrence of PCA (100 µM) +HT (100 µM) showed the highest inhibitory effect against α-Syn fibril formation and destabilisation of α-Syn fibrils (88 and 62%, respectively). Moreover, these compounds increased the expression of SIRT-2, HO-1 and Hsp70, contributing to a neuroprotective effect. In addition, the most important result is the increase on the expression of SIRT-2 caused by the combination of MEL + HT + PCA in the absence of α-Syn fibrils.

Inhibition of VEGFR-2 Phosphorylation and Effects on Downstream Signaling Pathways in Cultivated Human Endothelial Cells by Stilbenes from Vitis Spp.

Stilbenes are phenolic compounds present in different higher plant families that have shown different biological activities, such as antioxidant properties and antitumoral and anti-atherosclerotic effects, among others. Angiogenesis is a key process involved in both cancer and cardiovascular diseases, the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor VEGFR-2 being the main triggers. Certain polyphenol compounds, such as flavonoids, have shown a potent capacity to inhibit VEGF and, consequently, angiogenesis. The present work, therefore, aims to evaluate the potential effect of stilbenes on inhibiting VEGF and their subsequent effect on the downstream signaling pathway (PLCγ1, Akt, and eNOS). VEGFR-2 activation was studied through an ELISA assay in the HUVEC line, while the phosphorylation of intracellular downstream proteins PLCγ1, Akt, and eNOS was tested by Western blot. Student's t test was used to determine significant differences between samples. On the one hand, astringin, pallidol, and ω-viniferin showed the lowest IC50 values (2.90 ± 0.27, 4.42 ± 0.67, and 6.10 ± 1.29 µM, respectively) against VEGFR-2 activation. Additionally, VEGF-induced PLCγ1 phosphorylation was significantly inhibited by ε-viniferin, astringin, and ω-viniferin. However, ε-viniferin and pallidol simultaneously enhanced eNOS activation, proving to be via Akt activation in the case of ε-viniferin. For the first time, these data suggest that stilbenes such as astringin, pallidol, ω-viniferin, and ε-viniferin have a potential anti-angiogenic effect and they could be further considered as anti-VEGF ingredients in food and beverages. In addition, ε-viniferin and pallidol significantly allowed eNOS activation and could likely prevent the side effects caused by anti-VEGF hypertension drugs.

Phenolic Compounds Characteristic of the Mediterranean Diet in Mitigating Microglia-Mediated Neuroinflammation.

Neuroinflammation is a pathological feature of quite a number of Central Nervous System diseases such as Alzheimer and Parkinson's disease among others. The hallmark of brain neuroinflammation is the activation of microglia, which are the immune resident cells in the brain and represents the first line of defense when injury or disease occur. Microglial activated cells can adopt different phenotypes to carry out its diverse functions. Thus, the shift into pro-inflammatory/neurotoxic or anti-inflammatory/neuroprotective phenotypes, depending of the brain environment, has totally changed the understanding of microglia in neurodegenerative disease. For this reason, novel therapeutic strategies which aim to modify the microglia polarization are being developed. Additionally, the understanding of how nutrition may influence the prevention and/or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases has grown greatly in recent years. The protective role of Mediterranean diet (MD) in preventing neurodegenerative diseases has been reported in a number of studies. The Mediterranean dietary pattern includes as distinctive features the moderate intake of red wine and extra virgin olive oil, both of them rich in polyphenolic compounds, such as resveratrol, oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol and their derivatives, which have demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects on microglia on in vitro studies. This review summarizes our understanding of the role of dietary phenolic compounds characteristic of the MD in mitigating microglia-mediated neuroinflammation, including explanation regarding their bioavailability, metabolism and blood-brain barrier.

Protective effects of hydroxytyrosol against α-synuclein toxicity on PC12 cells and fibril formation.

There is a considerable consensus that the increased production and/or aggregation of α-synuclein (αsyn) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Therefore, a method of identifying molecules that block αsyn aggregation and prevent the loss of dopaminergic neurons is urgently needed in order to treat or slow the progression of PD. Hydroxytyrosol (HT), a well-known bioactive food compound present in olive oil, olives and wine, possesses demonstrated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can cross the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB). In the present work, the role of HT, tyrosol (TYR) and other tyrosine metabolites (hydroxyphenyl acetic acid (HPAA)) against αsyn aggregation, destabilisation and toxicity was evaluated through the use of different in vitro tests (Thioflavin T (ThT), Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM), electrophoresis and MTT assay). Results show that HT presents a strong inhibitory effect preventing αsyn aggregation and exercising a destabilising effect by disaggregating αsyn fibrils. Moreover, HT is able to counteract αsyn-induced toxicity. This is the first time that the effect of HT against αsyn toxicity and aggregation is evaluated. Thus, HT can be considered a promising compound for further approaches to tackling PD.

In Vitro Effects of Serotonin, Melatonin, and Other Related Indole Compounds on Amyloid-ß Kinetics and Neuroprotection.

SCOPE: Amyloid-ß peptide is the main component of senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease. The inhibition of amyloid-ß peptide assembly, the destabilization of amyloid-ß peptide aggregates, and the decrease of its cytotoxicity for the prevention of neuronal death are considered neuroprotective effects. In this work, the protective effects against amyloid-ß peptide aggregation and cytotoxicity of eight indolic compounds are evaluated: tryptophan, tryptamine, serotonin, tryptophol, N-acetylserotonin, 3-indoleacetic acid, tryptophan ethyl ester, and melatonin. METHODS AND RESULTS: Thioflavin T spectroscopic assay, transmission electron microscopy, western blotting, circular dichroism, NMR, cell viability (thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide assay), quantitative PCR, and heme oxygenase activity are used. Serotonin is the most effective compound for inhibiting amyloid-ß peptide aggregation. Almost all the indolic compounds tested prevent amyloid-ß peptide-induced and increase cell viability, being between 9 and 25%. Melatonin and serotonin are the most active. Moreover, serotonin increased the expression of SIRT-1 and 2, heat shock protein 70, and heme oxygenase activity, this being a possible mechanism underlying the observed neuroprotective effect. CONCLUSION: Melatonin and other related indolic compounds, mainly serotonin, show an inhibitory and destabilizing effect on amyloid-ß peptide fibril formation and they possess neuroprotective properties related to the vitagenes system.

Inhibition of VEGF-Induced VEGFR-2 Activation and HUVEC Migration by Melatonin and Other Bioactive Indolic Compounds.

Excessive concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) trigger angiogenesis, which causes complications such as the destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques and increased growth of tumors. This work focuses on the determination of the inhibitory activity of melatonin and other indolic related compounds on VEGF-induced VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) activation and an approximation to the molecular mechanism underlying the inhibition. Quantification of phosphorylated VEGFR-2 was measured by ELISA. Migration wound-healing assay was used to determine cell migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). This is the first time that melatonin, 3-indolacetic acid, 5-hydroxytryptophol, and serotonin are proved to significantly inhibit VEGF-induced VEGFR-2 activation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and subsequent angiogenesis. 3-Indolacetic acid showed the highest inhibitory effect (IC50 value of 0.9704 mM), followed by 5-hydroxytryptophol (35% of inhibition at 0.1 mM), melatonin (30% of inhibition at 1 mM), and serotonin (24% of inhibition at 1 mM). An approximation to the molecular mechanism of the inhibition has been proposed, suggesting that indolic compounds might interact with the cell surface components of the endothelial membrane in a way that prevents VEGF from activating the receptor. Additionally, wound-healing assay revealed that exposure of HUVECs to melatonin and 3-indolacetic acid in the presence of VEGF significantly inhibited cell migration by 87% and 99%, respectively, after 24 h. These data demonstrate that melatonin, 3-indolacetic acid, 5-hydroxytryptophol, and serotonin would be good molecules for future exploitation as anti-VEGF signaling agents.

Influence of Fermentation Process on the Anthocyanin Composition of Wine and Vinegar Elaborated from Strawberry.

Anthocyanins are the major polyphenolic compounds in strawberry fruit responsible for its color. Due to their sensitivity, they are affected by food processing techniques such as fermentation that alters both their chemical composition and organoleptic properties. This work aims to evaluate the impact of different fermentation processes on individual anthocyanins compounds in strawberry wine and vinegar by UHPLC-MS/MS Q Exactive analysis. Nineteen, 18, and 14 anthocyanin compounds were identified in the strawberry initial substrate, strawberry wine, and strawberry vinegar, respectively. Four and 8 anthocyanin compounds were tentatively identified with high accuracy for the 1st time to be present in the beverages obtained by alcoholic fermentation and acetic fermentation of strawberry, respectively. Both, the total and the individual anthocyanin concentrations were decreased by both fermentation processes, affecting the alcoholic fermentation to a lesser extent (19%) than the acetic fermentation (91%). Indeed, several changes in color parameters have been assessed. The color of the wine and the vinegar made from strawberry changed during the fermentation process, varying from red to orange color, this fact is directly correlated with the decrease of anthocyanins compounds.

Protocatechuic Acid: Inhibition of Fibril Formation, Destabilization of Preformed Fibrils of Amyloid-ß and α-Synuclein, and Neuroprotection.

Protocatechuic acid (PCA) is the major metabolite of the anthocyanin known as cyanidin 3-glucoside. It is found in plasma and tissues, such as the brain, heart, liver, and kidneys, following consumption of a rich source of this flavonoid. The abnormal pathological assembly of amyloid-ß (Aß) and α-synuclein (αS) is an underlying mechanism involved in the formation of amyloid plaques and Lewy bodies in the brain, which are responsible for neuropathology symptoms in Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's diseases (PD), respectively. This research was performed to evaluate the protective effects of PCA, by establishing its potential role in inhibiting aggregation and fibril destabilization of Aß and αS proteins. It has been found that PCA inhibits the aggregation of Aß and αS and destabilizes their preformed fibrils. These results were confirmed by TEM images, electrophoresis, and immunoblotting experiments. Furthermore, PCA prevents the death of PC12 cells triggered by Aß- and αS-induced toxicity.

Determination of Nonanthocyanin Phenolic Compounds Using High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-Orbitrap-MS/MS) and Impact of Storage Conditions in a Beverage Made from Strawberry by Fermentation.

Overproduction of strawberry leads to food waste, as it is very perishable. Therefore, strategies to transform it into new products are appreciated. This research focuses on characterization of the nonanthocyanin phenolic content of a beverage obtained from strawberry by gluconic and acetic fermentation and subsequently monitored for 90 days of storage, at two temperatures. Sixty-four nonanthocyanin (poly)phenols were identified by high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC coupled with linear trap quadrupole and Orbitrap mass analyzer) and, for the first time, four compounds were reported in beverages fermented from strawberry: aromadendrin hexoside, phloretin 2'-O-xylosyl glucoside, dihydroferulic acid 4-O-glucuronide, and kaempferol hexosyl hexoside. During the storage time the increase in protocatechuic acid content was 13 times and condensed tannins diminished, especially procyanidin trimer. Statistical analysis showed that the composition remains unchanged until day 15 of storage at room temperature (27-30 °C) and until day 30 under refrigerated conditions (4 °C).
