Multidrug and toxic compound extrusion transporter-1 (MATE1) is a quercetin transporter. We examined the associations of quercetin intake and polymorphism of MATE1 in relation to metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Hallym Aging Study. Quercetin intake and the measurements for MetS were assessed in 2004. Six tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at MATE1 gene were genotyped in 428 Korean adults in 2012. We found a lower prevalence of MetS with quercetin intake; compared to the lowest quartile, odds ratios (ORs, 95% confidence intervals; CIs) were 0.44 (0.24-0.84) for the 3 quartile. Individuals with the minor allele of MATE1, rs2453589, tended to have a lower prevalence of MetS compared to those with the major allele (OR=0.69; CI=0.36-1.34). However, interactions between quercetin intake and six MATE1 polymorphisms in relation to MetS were not significant ( for interaction ≥0.37). In conclusion, intake of quercetin was associated with MetS in Korean populations.

Flavonoids are a group of plant secondary metabolites that have a number of health-promoting properties and have both preventive and therapeutic effects. Research confirms that flavonoids work, among others: antiviral and anticancer. Apigenin, luteolin, isorhamnetin, kaempferol, myricetin, quercetin, hesperetin, naringenin, epicatechin and genistein have documented antiviral activity.

Animal production requires efficiency, safety and environmental sustainability. Bioactive compounds from tropical plants could modulate ruminal fermentation, providing an alternative method to antibiotic treatment and addressing concerns about antibiotic resistance. In this study, the aim was to determine the effects of extract (TDE) on performance, intake, digestibility and blood parameters [i.

Background/objectives: Quercetin (QT) is a plant flavonoid that offers health benefits owing to its various bioactive properties; however, as a hydrophobic substance, it has considerably low bioavailability. We previously demonstrated that QT nanoemulsion (QT+NE) formulated via oil-in-water nanoemulsification exhibited more effective cholesterol-lowering activity than ordinary QT in high cholesterol-fed rats. In this study, we investigated the effects of QT+NE on the regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in high-fat diet (HD)-fed mice.

Flavonoids are a class of polyphenolic secondary metabolites found in plants. Due to their ubiquity in our daily dietary intake and their major anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and anti-mutagenic activities, they have been a major focus of wide-ranging research for the past two decades. Mass spectrometry combined with liquid chromatography is one of the most popular techniques for the analysis of flavonoids.

Objectives: This study investigates the effects of quercetin, an antioxidant and nitric oxide (NO) modulator, on depressive-like behaviours triggered by social isolation stress (SIS) in mice. SIS, known to harm psychosocial functioning and increase the risk of depression, involves oxidative stress and NO in its pathophysiology.
Methods: 72 male mice were divided into nine groups, including the social (SC) group as the control group (stress-free with normal saline intake).
