Trigonelline is a pyridine alkaloid found in various edible seeds and legumes, including coffee. It is a zwitterion formed by the methylation of the nitrogen atom of niacin (vitamin B3; nicotinic acid) and, as a product of niacin metabolism, is excreted in urine of mammals.{31519} Trigonelline has been used to reduce blood glucose levels and to inhibit PPARγ expression in rat models of diabetes.{31520,31516} It is also reported to inhibit the migration of hepatocarcinoma cells and render them more susceptible to apoptosis by reducing Raf/ERK/Nrf2 protein levels and activities of anti-oxidative enzymes further downstream, such as SOD, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase.{31518,31517}
