Description
Procyanidin B1 is a polyphenol flavonoid existing as a dimer of (+)-catechin and (?)-epicatechin . It inhibits hepatitis C virus RNA replication (EC50 = 72 μM), while (+)-catechin and (?)-epicatechin do not, up to concentrations of 200 μM. Procyanidin B1 (10 μg/ml) prevents phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in THP-1 cells. It decreases TNF-α, phosphorylated p38 MAPK, and NF-κB levels following LPS administration.
