SDG-2, #Eggerthella lenta rK3 and #Eggerthella lenta CAT-1 and from the phylum actinomycetes, which belong to the phylum #Actinobacteria, through the cleavage of the C-ring and dihydroxylation reactions to produce (−)EGC, (−)-gallocatechin (GC), (±)EC and (±)-catechin (C) [1.2] [#Alzheimer’s disease] [#Enterobacteriaceae bacterium] - AD elders were also depleted in Adlercreutzia equolifaciens, an #Equol-producing bacterium, which has beneficial effects in reducing experimental cutaneous inflammation in mice and the loss of which has been associated with the neurodegenerative disorder #Multiple Sclerosis. [1.3] - Specific bacterial strains that have the ability to process dietary #Polyphenols have been identified and include #Eubacterium ramulus, Adlercreutiza equolifaciens and #Flavonifractor plautiiReferences Notes[ ]
