Biological Activity

Description Quercetin, a natural flavonoid present in vegetables, fruit and wine, is a stimulator of recombinant SIRT1 and also a PI3K inhibitor with IC50 of 2.4-5.4 μM. Quercetin induces mitophagy, apoptosis and protective autophagy. Phase 4.
Targets
Sirtuin [4] Src [1] PKC [1] PI3Kγ [1]
(Cell-free assay)		 PI3Kδ [1]

2.4 μM 3.0 μM
In vitro

Quercetin is a type of plant-based chemical, or phytochemical, known as a flavonol and a plant-derived flavonoid found in fruits, vegetables, leaves and grains. It also may be used as an ingredient in supplements, beverages or foods. In several studies, it may have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and it is being investigated for a wide range of potential health benefits. Quercetin (Sophoretin) is a PI3K inhibitor with IC50 of 2.4 – 5.4 μM. It strongly abrogated PI3K and Src kinases, mildly inhibited Akt1/2, and slightly affected PKC, p38 and ERK1/2. [1]

Quercetin inhibits TNF-induced LDH% release, EC-dependent neutrophils adhesion to bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (BPAEC), and BPAEC DNA synthesis and proliferation. [2]
In vivo

Combination of Quercetin (75 mg/kg) and 2-Methoxyestradiol enhances inhibition of human prostate cancer LNCaP and PC-3 cells xenograft tumor growth.[3]

LD50: >3000mg/kg (i.g.) [4]
