| Common Name | Cafestol |
|---|
| Description | Cafestol, also known as coffeol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as naphthofurans. Naphthofurans are compounds containing a furan ring fused to a naphthalene moiety. Furan is a 5 membered- ring aromatic ring with four carbon and one oxygen atoms. Naphthalene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon made up of two fused benzene rings. Cafestol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, cafestol has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as arabica coffee, coffee, and coffee and coffee products. This could make cafestol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Cafestol is a diterpenoid molecule present in coffee beans. A typical bean of Coffea arabica contains about 0.4-0.7% Cafestol by weight. Cafestol is present in highest quantity in unfiltered coffee drinks such as French press coffee or Turkish coffee/Greek coffee. Cafestol has also shown anticarcinogenic properties in rats. Coffee consumption has been associated with a number of effects on health and cafestol has been proposed to produce these through a number of biological actions. Studies have shown that regular consumption of boiled coffee increases serum cholesterol whereas filtered coffee does not. Thus cafestol can increase cholesterol synthesis. It is one of the compounds that may be responsible for proposed biological and pharmacological effects of coffee. Cafestol is found in Coffea arabica, Coffea congensis, Coffea spp. and Diplospora dubia. Cafestol was first documented in 2011 (PMID: 21334318). Cafestol may act as an agonist ligand for the nuclear receptor farnesoid X receptor and pregnane X receptor, blocking cholesterol homeostasis. |
