/EXPL THER/ ... In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial ... /among patients with category III chronic prostatitis syndromes (nonbacterial chronic prostatitis and prostatodynia)/ ... Significant improvement was achieved in the treated group, as measured by the NIH chronic prostatitis score. Some 67% of the treated subjects had at least 25% improvement in symptoms, compared with 20% of the placebo group achieving this same level of improvement. In a follow up, unblind, open-label study ... quercetin was combined with bromelain and papain, which may enhance its absorption. In this study, 82% achieved a minimum 25% improvement score.

/EXPL THER/ Lymphocyte protein kinase phosphorylation was inhibited by quercetin in 9 of 11 cancer patients in a phase I clinical trial. Fifty-one patients with microscopically confirmed cancer not amenable to standard therapies and with a life expectancy of at least 12 wk participated in this trial ... The patients were treated at 3-wk intervals at the beginning of the study. Quercetin was admin iv as quercetin dihydrate ... The max allowed dose was reached when 2 of 3 patients on each dose schedule reached grade 3 or 4 general toxicity, or grad 2 renal toxicity, cardiac toxicity, or neurotoxicity. Phosphorylation was inhibited at 1 hr and persisted for 16 hr. In one patient with ovarian cancer refractory to cisplatin, cancer antigen-125 (CA 125) fell from 295 to 55 units/mL after treatment with 2 courses of quercetin ... A hepatoma patient had serum alpha-fetoprotein fall.

... Quercetin has been shown to protect low density lipoprotein (LDL) from oxidation and prevent platelet aggregation. It was also reported to inhibit the proliferation and migration of smooth muscle cells ... Quercetin was reported to significantly lower the plasma lipid, lipoprotein and hepatic cholesterol levels, inhibit the production of oxLDL produced by oxidative stress, and protect an enzyme, which can hydrolyzed specific lipid peroxides in oxidized lipoproteins and in atherosclerotic lesions ... /It/ induced endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in rat aorta via incr nitric oxide production ... Quercetin and its glycosides were also reported to inhibit the angiotensin-converting enzyme activity, and ANG II-induced JNK activation inducing vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) hypertrophy ...

Naturally occurring or synthetic substances that inhibit or retard oxidation reactions. They counteract the damaging effects of oxidation in animal tissues. (See all compounds classified as Antioxidants.)
After oral administration of a single dose of 4 g quercetin to four male and two female volunteers, neither quercetin nor its conjugates was detected in the blood or urine during the first 24 hr; 53% of the dose was recovered in the feces within 72 hr. After a single intravenous injection of 100 mg quercetin to six volunteers, the blood plasma levels declined biphasically, with half-lives of 8.8 min and 2.4 hr; protein binding exceeded 98%. In the urine, 0.65% of the intravenous dose was excreted as unchanged quercetin and 7.4% as a conjugate within 9 hr; no further excretion occurred up to 24 hr ...

The glycosides are hydrolyzed in the body to corresponding aglycones, which are then further metabolized by scission of the heterocyclic ring to give 3,4-dihydroxy-phenyl-substituted acids ... The site of ring scission depends on structure ... with flavonols (quercetin) scission occurs at the 1,2 & 3,4 bonds to yield homoprotocatechuic acid ... These acids are further metabolized by beta-oxidation of acyl side-chain, o-methylation & demethylation, & aromatic dehydroxylation.

Quercetin is a specific quinone reductase 2 (QR2) inhibitor, an enzyme (along with the human QR1 homolog) which catalyzes metabolism of toxic quinolines. Inhibition of QR2 in plasmodium may potentially cause lethal oxidative stress. The inhibition of antioxidant activity in plasmodium may contribute to killing the malaria causing parasites.
... The 5, 7, 3', 4'-hydroxyl groups on quercetin are capable of donating electrons to quench various radical oxygen species (ROS) and other radical species ... Oxygen radicals (superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, and other related radicals) ... are quenched by ... antioxidant systems, including antioxidant cmpd, which balance cellular redox status involved in cellular processes for cell homeostasis ... Generally, 3 criteria are considered to assess the antioxidant activity of flavonoids in vitro: first, B ring with 2 hydroxyl groups (adjacent), second, C ring with 2,3-double bond, 4-oxo, and 3-hydroxyl group, and third, A ring with 5,7-dihydroxyl groups. Quercetin meets all 3 criteria, indicating stronger antioxidant activity ... The flavonol was reported to prevent radicals from damaging carbohydrates, proteins, nucleotides, and lipids ... The glucuronide conjugates found in the plasma were also reported to have potent antioxidant activity, indicating that the activity may be retained depending on conjugation positions ...

Cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) can induce apoptosis in colon cancer cells through engagement of death receptors. Nevertheless, evading apoptosis induced by anticancer drugs characterizes many types of cancers. This results in the need for combination therapy. In this study ... whether the flavonoid quercetin could sensitize human colon adenocarcinoma cell lines to TRAIL-induced apoptosis /was investigated/ ... Quercetin enhanced TRAIL-induced apoptosis by causing the redistribution of DR4 and DR5 into lipid rafts. Nystatin, a cholesterol-sequestering agent, prevented quercetin-induced clustering of death receptors and sensitization to TRAIL-induced apoptosis in colon adenocarcinoma cells ... Qercetin, in combination with TRAIL, triggered the mitochondrial-dependent death pathway, as shown by Bid cleavage and the release of cytochrome c to the cytosol. Together /the/ findings propose that quercetin, through its ability to redistribute death receptors at the cell surface, facilitates death-inducing signaling complex formation and activation of caspases in response to death receptor stimulation. Based on these results, this study provides a challenging approach to enhance the efficiency of TRAIL-based therapies.

Previously /the authors/ reported that isoflavone (genistein) activated bone sialoprotein (BSP) gene transcription is mediated through an inverted CCAAT box in the proximal BSP gene promoter. The present study investigates the regulation of BSP transcription in a rat osteoblast-like cell line, ROS 17/2.8 cells, by quercetin and its conjugated metabolite quercetin 3-glucuronide. Quercetin and quercetin 3-glucuronide (5 uM) increased the BSP mRNA levels at 12 hr and quercetin upregulated the Cbfa1/Runx2 mRNA expression at 12 hr. From transient transfection assays using various sized BSP promoter-luciferase constructs, quercetin increased the luciferase activity of the construct (pLUC3), including the promoter sequence nucleotides -116 to -43. Transcriptional stimulations by quercetin were almost completely abrogated in the constructs that included 2 bp mutations in the inverted CCAAT and FRE elements whereas the CCAAT-protein complex did not change after stimulation by quercetin according to gel shift assays. Quercetin increased the nuclear protein binding to the FRE and 3'-FRE. These data suggest that quercetin and quercetin 3-glucuronide increased the BSP mRNA expression, and that the inverted CCAAT and FRE elements in the promoter of the BSP gene are required for quercetin induced BSP transcription.

Connexin proteins form gap junctions, which permit direct exchange of cytoplasmic contents between neighboring cells. Evidence indicates that gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) is important for maintaining homeostasis and preventing cell transformation. Furthermore, connexins may have independent functions including tumor growth suppression. Most tumors express less connexins, have reduced GJIC and have increased growth rates compared with non-tumorigenic cells. The purpose of this study was to determine whether common flavonoids, genistein and quercetin, increase connexin43 (Cx43) levels, improve GJIC and suppress growth of a metastatic human breast tumor cell line (MDA-MB-231). Quercetin (2.5, 5 ug/mL) and genistein (0.5, 2.5, 15 ug/mL) upregulated Cx43 but failed to increase GJIC. Cx43 localized to the plasma membrane following genistein treatment (2.5, 15 ug/mL). In contrast, Cx43 aggregated in the perinuclear region following quercetin treatment (0.5, 2.5, 5, 15 ug/mL). Both genistein (15 ug/mL) and quercetin (2.5, 5, 15 ug/mL) significantly reduced MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation. In summary, genistein and quercetin increase Cx43 and suppress MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation at physiologically relevant concentrations. These results demonstrate that genistein and quercetin are potential anti-breast cancer agents.
