Cholesterol-laden macrophages trigger accumulation of foam cells and increase the risk of
developing atherosclerosis. We hypothesized that quercetin could lower the content of …

The accumulation of cholesterol in macrophages could induce the formation of foam cells
and increase the risk of developing atherosclerosis. We wonder if quercetin, one of …

Quercetin, a common member of the flavonoid family, is widely present in plant kingdom.
Despite that quercetin is implicated in regulating cholesterol metabolism, the molecular …

Scope Curcumin, a potent antioxidant extracted from Curcuma longa, confers protection
against atherosclerosis, yet the detailed mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study …

Background Quercetin, one of the most widely distributed flavonoids in plants, has been
demonstrated to reduce hyperlipidaemia and atherosclerotic lesion formation. Reverse …

Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is the process to deliver cholesterol to the liver for
further excretion and involves scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI)-mediated selective …

The cellular accumulation of cholesterol is critical in the development and progression of
atherosclerosis. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play an essential role in mediating …

Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) removes excess cholesterol from macrophages to
prevent atherosclerosis. ATP-binding cassette, subfamily A, member 1 (ABCA1) is a crucial …

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a crucial role in exporting cholesterol
from macrophages, a function relevant to its involvement in the prevention of …

OBJECTIVES: Quercetin has been reported to have the activities of antioxidant, anti-
inflammatory, anti-virus, anti-cancer and so on. Many studies showed that quercetin could …
