A type proanthocyanidins are a specific type of proanthocyanidins, which are a class of flavanoid. Proanthocyanidins fall under a wide range of names in the nutritional and scientific vernacular, including oligomeric proanthocyanidins, flavanoids, polyphenols, condensed tannins, and OPCs. Proanthocyanidins were first popularized by French scientist Jacques Masquelier.[1]

Distribution in plants

Schematic chemical structure of an A type proanthocyanidin dimer

A-type linkage is a less common feature in proanthocyanidins with both 4β→8 (B-type) and 2β→O→7 interflavanoid bonds.[2]

A-type proanthocyanidin glycosides can be isolated from cocoa liquor.[3]

Dimers

Other A-type proanthocyanidins can be found in cranberries,[2] in apricots,in cinnamon [4], in Prunus armeniaca (ent-epiafzelechin-3-O-p-hydroxybenzoate-(4α→8,2α→O→7)-epiafzelechin) and in peanut skins (epicatechin-(2β→O→7, 4β→8)-ent-epicatechin).[5]

Epi-afzelechin-(4β→8, 2β→O→7)-afzelechin (geranin A) and epi-catechin-(4β→8, 2β→O→7)-afzelechin (geranin B) can be found in Geranium niveum.[6]

Trimers

An A type proanthocyanidins trimer can be found in Lindera aggregata (epicatechin-(4β→8,2β→O→7)-entcatechin-(4β-8)-catechin).[8] This compound shows cytoprotective action against ethanol-induced gastric injury.[9]

In Ecdysanthera utilis (epicatechin-(4β→8,2β→O→7)-epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin and epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin-(4β→8,2β→O→7)-epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin) can be found.[10]

Chemistry

B-type procyanidins (catechin dimers) can be converted to A-type procyanidins by radical oxidation.[11] Fragmentation patterns for A-type proanthocyanidins include heterocyclic ring fission (HRF), retro-Diels-Alder (RDA) fission, benzofuran-forming fission (BFF) and quinone methide fission (QM).[12]

Urinary tract infection prevention

85–90% of urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by E. Coli bacteria.[13] E. Coli use their p-type fimbrae to attach to the wall of the urinary tract.[14] A Type proanthocyanidins have been clinically demonstrated to attach to E. Coli fimbriae, preventing the bacteria from attaching to the urinary tract or bladder or urinary wall.[15][16] A Type proanthocyanidins have been demonstrated in vitro to be more effective than other types of proanthocyanidins at adhering to E. Coli and preventing UTIs.[17]

The anti-adhesion activity of A type proanthocyanidins in cranberry products has been well established by the aforementioned clinical data, but it is unclear to what extent this anti-adhesion activity translates into prevention of UTIs. A Cochrane Collaboration Review of the body of clinical literature concluded that "there is some evidence to recommend cranberry juice for the prevention of UTIs in women with symptomatic UTIs. The large number of dropouts/withdrawals from some of the trials, however, indicates that cranberry juice may not be acceptable over long periods of time".[18] Another review of cranberry and UTI prevention takes a more skeptical view. The review supports the anti-adhesion of activity of A type proanthocyanidins: "evidence suggests that the anthocyanidin/proanthocyanidin moieties are potent antiadhesion compounds" yet asserts that "most clinical trials have had design deficiencies" and points to cranberry products' "adverse events include gastrointestinal intolerance and weight gain (due to the excessive calorie load)."[19] Both reviews agree that the evidence for cranberries (and their anti-adhesion components A type proanthocyanidins) and UTI prevention can be strengthened by better-designed clinical studies.

Problems may arise with the lack of validation of a quantifying method. For instance, in the case of cranberries extracts, the quantification of A-type proanthocyanidins can be performed using several existing methods including for example the European Pharmacopoeia method, LC-MS[20] or a modified 4-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde (DMAC) colorimetric method.[21] This can lead to a difficulty to evaluated the real quality of extracts from different origins. Assessment of that quality shows that it differs greatly from one commercial product to another.[22]
