TL;DR:
Examination of effects of six berries with structurally diverse anthocyanin profiles on development of metabolic risk factors in the C57BL/6 mouse model of polygenic obesity showed a prominent discrepancy between biological activities of delphinidin/malvidin-versus cyanidin-type anthocianins that could be explained by differences in their structure and metabolism in the gut.
