Peanut procyanidin A

Peanut procyanidin A, an A-type proanthocyanidin isolated from peanut skins, protects DU145 prostate cells from H2O2-induced oxidative stress via the MAPKs signaling pathway. This compound mitigates cell cycle arrest and reduces cell death (apoptosis) . Additionally, peanut procyanidin A regulates the intestinal microbiota and metabolism in mice with DSS-induced ulcerative colitis.
