Among plant lignans, pinoresinol has the strongest antiinflammatory properties in human intestinal Caco-2 cells.

J. Nutr. 142 , 1798-1805, (2012)

Dietary lignans show some promising health benefits, but little is known about their fate and activities in the small intestine. The purpose of this study was thus to investigate whether plant lignans are taken up by intestinal cells and modulate the intestin...

Intake of the plant lignans matairesinol, secoisolariciresinol, pinoresinol, and lariciresinol in relation to vascular inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in middle age-elderly men and post-menopausal women living in Northern Italy.

Nutr. Metab. Cardiovasc. Dis. 20(1) , 64-71, (2010)

It has been suggested that lignan intake may decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) by modifying traditional risk factors as well as aortic stiffness. However, the role of dietary lignans on the vascular system is largely unknown. The objective wa...
