Roasted Coffee in Enhanced Neuroprotective Effects

Intake of coffee daily may have a strong impact on reduced risk and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, a renowned institute study suggested

Coffee, a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

In rat study to investigate the effect of eicosanoyl-5-hydroxytryptamide(EHT) isolated from coffee against MPTP model of PD with rats fed a diet containing EHT for four weeks exhibited dose-dependent preservation in compared to animals are given control feed, researchers found that
1. Mice fed with EHT exhibited a decreased protein aggregation and phosphorylation and improved neuronal integrity and reduced neuroinflammation.
2. The levels of degeneration of dopaminergic neurons(striatal dopamine (DA)) and tyrosine hydroxylase depletion, in the biosynthesis of DA also lower in fed rats, compared to control.
3. Fed rats also displayed lower indices of oxidative stress and JNK activation in reduced neuron cell apoptosis.

Dr. V, the led author said, " neuroprotective effect of EHT against MPTP(induced PD) is through several mechanisms including its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities as well as its ability to modulate the methylation and hence the activity of (phosphoprotein phosphatase 2A) PP2A(related to AD development)".

Other study suggested that coffee with its chemical compound cytoprotective transcription factor Nrf2 in the activation of the expression of antioxidant proteins is the ingredient in induced neuroprotective in fly PD models as shown in Drosophila models of Alzheimer's disease and polyglutamine disease, through coffee (regardless to caffeinated or decaffeinated)

Dr. Trinh K, the led author said, "coffee...... contains Nrf2-activating compounds that may account for the reduced risk of PD among coffee ....users. These compounds represent attractive candidates for therapeutic intervention in PD and perhaps other neurodegenerative diseases".

More importantly, in the study of the effect of different types of coffee against risk neurodegenerative diseases, researchers at the Kraft Foods Research & Nutrition showed that

1. All regular and decaffeinated samples of both roasted and green coffee showed high hydrophilic antioxidant activity in vitro,
2. In neuronal cell cultures, pretreatment with green and roasted coffees (regular and decaffeinated) protected against the expression of oxidative stress.
3. Roasted coffee regardless of caffeine content, exerted much higher protection of cell survival of 203% in compared to 78% of green coffee.
4. Only roasted coffee expressed a significant activity in inhibited neuron cell apoptosis.

Further observation, also indicated that coffee phenolic compounds in roasted coffees demonstrated high levels of chlorogenic acid lactones (CGLs) which has been found to induce neuroprotective efficacy through other studies.


Taking all together, there is no doubt that roasted coffee intake, regardless of caffeineated content, displayed a significant effect in attenuated risk and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
