REVIEW: Ellagitannin; biosynthesis, isolation, and biological activities

View through CrossRef
Ellagitannin is one of the bioactive groups produced by some of medicinal plants. Ellagitannin is a hydrolysable tannin compound biosynthesized via shikimic acid – gallic acid – pentagalloilglucose pathway. Ellagitannin can be isolated by cascade extraction procedures followed by column chromatography method and preparative HPLC method. The biological activities of ellagitannin are caused by molecular bond between ellagitannin and some other compound, especially protein that makes complex compound and changes physiological processes in cells or tissues of the livingthinks. Biological activities of ellagitannin included anti-diabetic, anti-microbes, anti-viruses, anti-hypertension, antioxidative, and anti-cancer or anti-tumor.
