Urolithin A boosts immune system and anti-tumor activity

This study showed that treatment with Amazentis’ proprietary Urolithin A supplement, Mitopure, significantly improved the cancer-fighting properties of T-cells, a key part of the immune system.

Urolithin A renewed the energy factories of the T-cells via a cellular recycling pathway called mitophagy and so helped maintain their anti-cancer activity for longer.

Mice with colorectal tumors that were fed Urolithin A saw significantly reduced cancer growth, because of stronger T-cell antitumor properties.

A similar effect was seen in human cells. Human T-cells cultured with Urolithin A produced more T memory stem cells, potentially giving the immune cells more cancer-killing power.
