Polyphenols as Epigenetic Influencers for Preventing and Treating Chronic Diseases
AI simplified
Abstract
Polyphenols such as resveratrol, curcumin, quercetin, and catechins may exert protective actions by influencing gene expression.
- Polyphenols are linked to the modulation of epigenetic mechanisms associated with chronic diseases.
- Key epigenetic processes impacted by polyphenols include DNA methylation, histone modifications, and microRNA regulation.
- These compounds could counteract harmful epigenetic changes that contribute to chronic conditions.
- Understanding the role of polyphenols in epigenetics may facilitate the development of new therapeutic approaches.
