4.1 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Antioxidants

Naturally occurring or synthetic substances that inhibit or retard oxidation reactions. They counteract the damaging effects of oxidation in animal tissues. (See all compounds classified as Antioxidants.)


4.2 Metabolism/Metabolites

Enzymes involved in its /caffeic acid/ metabolism have not been identified. In the following, caffeic (CA), chlorogenic (CGA), and dihydrocaffeic (DHCA) acids were incubated with hepatocytes and shown to undergo metabolism by cytochrome P450, catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), and beta-oxidation enzymes. Ferulic (FA) or dihydroferulic (DHFA) acids, formed as the result of CA- or DHCA-O-methylation by COMT, were also O-demethylated by CYP1A1/2 but not CYP2E1. DHCA or DHFA also underwent side chain dehydrogenation to form CA and FA, respectively, which was prevented by thioglycolic acid, an inhibitor of the beta-oxidation enzyme acyl CoA dehydrogenase. The rates of glutathione conjugate formation catalyzed by NADPH/microsomes (CYP2E1) in decreasing order DHCA>CA>CGA trend which was in reverse order to the rates of their O-methylation by COMT. The CA- and DHCA-o-quinones formed by NADPH/P450 likely inhibited COMT but can readily form glutathione conjugates. CA, DHCA and DHFA were inter-metabolized to each other and to FA by isolated rat hepatocytes whereas FA was metabolized only to CA but not to DHCA or DHFA. CA, DHCA, FA, DHFA and CGA showed a dose-dependent hepatocyte toxicity and the LD(50) (2 h), determined were in decreasing order of effectiveness DHCA>CA>DHFA>CGA>FA. In summary, evidence has been provided that O-methylation, GSH conjugation, hydrogenation and dehydrogenation are involved in the hepatic metabolism of CA and DHCA. The O-methylation pathway for CA and DHCA is a detoxification route whereas o-quinones formation catalyzed by P450 is the toxification route.

In rats, chlorogenic acid is hydrolysed in the stomach and intestine to caffeic and quinic acids. A number of metabolites have been identified. Glucuronides of meta-coumaric acid and meta-hydroxyhippuric acid appear to be the main metabolites in humans. After oral administration of caffeic acid to human volunteers, O-methylated derivatives (ferulic, dihydroferulic and vanillic acids) were excreted rapidly in the urine, while the meta-hydroxyphenyl derivatives appeared later. The dehydroxylation reactions were ascribed to the action of intestinal bacteria.

Caffeic Acid has known human metabolites that include (2S,3S,4S,5R)-6-[4-[(E)-2-carboxyethenyl]-2-hydroxyphenoxy]-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid and (2S,3S,4S,5R)-6-[5-[(E)-2-carboxyethenyl]-2-hydroxyphenoxy]-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid.

4.3 Mechanism of Action

Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) was synthesized from caffeic acid and phenethyl alcohol (ratio 1:5) at room temperature with dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (DCC) as a condensing reagent. The yield was about 38%. CAPE was found to arrest the growth of human leukemia HL-60 cells. It also inhibits DNA, RNA and protein synthesis in HL-60 cells with IC50 of 1.0 M, 5.0 M and 1.5 M, respectively.

In an attempt to understand the antihyperglycemic action of caffeic acid, the myoblast C2C12 cells were employed to investigate the glucose uptake in the present study. Caffeic acid enhanced the uptake of radioactive glucose into C2C12 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Similar effect of phenylephrine on the uptake of radioactive glucose was also observed in C2C12 cells. Prazosin attenuated the action of caffeic acid in a way parallel to the blockade of phenylephrine. Effect of caffeic acid on alpha1-adrenoceptors was further supported by the displacement of [3H]prazosin binding in C2C12 cells. Moreover, the glucose uptake-increasing action of phenylephrine in C2C12 cells was inhibited by the antagonists of alpha1A-adrenoceptors, both tamsulosin and WB 4101, but not by the antagonist of alpha1B-adrenoceptors, chlorethylclonidine (CEC). The presence of alpha1A-adrenoceptors in C2C12 cells can thus be considered. Similar inhibition of the action of caffeic acid was also obtained in C2C12 cells co-incubating these antagonists. An activation of alpha1A-adrenoceptors seems responsible for the action of caffeic acid in C2C12 cells. In the presence of U73312, the specific inhibitor of phospholipase C, caffeic acid-stimulated uptake of radioactive glucose into C2C12 cells was reduced in a concentration-dependent manner and it was not affected by U73343, the negative control of U73312. Moreover, chelerythrine and GF 109203X diminished the action of caffeic acid at concentrations sufficient to inhibit protein kinase C. Therefore, the obtained data suggest that an activation of alpha1A-adrenoceptors in C2C12 cells by caffeic acid may increase the glucose uptake via phospholipase C-protein kinase C pathway.

Caffeic acid (CA, 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid), at 2% in the diet, had been shown to be carcinogenic in forestomach and kidney of F344 rats and B6C3F1 mice. Based on its occurrence in coffee and numerous foods and using a linear interpolation for cancer incidence between dose 0 and 2%, the cancer risk in humans would be considerable. In both target organs, tumor formation was preceded by hyperplasia, which could represent the main mechanism of carcinogenic action. The dose-response relationship for this effect was investigated in male F344 rats after 4-week feeding with CA at different dietary concentrations (0, 0.05, 0.14, 0.40, and 1.64%). Cells in S-phase of DNA replication were visualized by immunohistochemical analysis of incorporated 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU), 2 hr after intraperitoneal injection. In the forestomach, both the total number of epithelial cells per millimeter section length and the unit length labeling index of BrdU-positive cells (ULLI) were increased, about 2.5-fold, at 0.40 and 1.64%. The lowest concentration (0.05%) had no effect. At 0.14%, both variables were decreased by about one-third. In the kidney, the labeling index in proximal tubular cells also indicated a J-shaped (or U-shaped) dose response with a 1.8-fold increase at 1.64%. In the glandular stomach and in the liver, which are not target organs, no dose-related effect was seen. The data show a good correlation between the organ specificity for cancer induction and stimulation of cell division. With respect to the dose-response relationship and the corresponding extrapolation of the animal tumor data to a human cancer risk, a linear extrapolation appears not to be appropriate.
