Cover Story: Three classes of molecules present in chicory root were analyzed: fructose, chlorogenic acids, and sesquiterpene lactones. Experiments on the murine model led us to a nutrigenomic analysis, a metabolic hormone assay, and a gut microbiota analysis, associated with in vitro observations for different responses. We have highlighted a large number of effects of all these classes of molecules that suggest a pro-apoptotic activity, an anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, hypolipidemic, and hypoglycemic effect, and a prebiotic role. Fructose seems to be the most involved in these activities, contributing to approximately 83% of recorded responses, but the other classes of tested molecules have shown a specific role for these different effects, with an estimated contribution of 23–24%. View this paper
