Numerous in vitro studies argue for quercetin's chemopreventive potential in colon cancer;
however, experimental studies in rodents are limited. Macrophages play a role in …

We have demonstrated that 0.45% quercetin added to a diet containing corn oil (15% w/w),
as the lipid source, and cellulose (6% w/w), as the fiber source, was able to suppress the …

Rats fed 100 mg/kg quercetin (QUE) daily for 7 weeks had significantly enhanced natural
killer cell activity compared to their vehicle (VEH)-fed control. In contrast, rats fed 100 mg/kg …

The flavonoid quercetin suppresses cell proliferation and enhances apoptosis in vitro. In this
study, we determined whether quercetin protects against colon cancer by regulating the …

Quercetin inhibits proliferation of human gastric and colonic cancer cells in vitro by
suppressing mitosis and increasing apoptosis. Quercetin might therefore act as an …

The effect of the flavonoid quercetin and its conjugate rutin was investigated on (biomarkers
of) colorectal cancer (CRC). Male F344 rats (n= 42/group) were fed 0, 0.1, 1, or 10 g …

Quercetin is a flavonol that appears to be protective against several cancers, but its possible
role in prevention of colorectal cancer is not yet well studied. We evaluated dietary intakes of …

The phenolic flavonoids quercetin (QU) and rutin (RU) found in the outer leaves of
vegetables and fruits were examined as modifiers of an experimental model of colon cancer …

Epidemiological studies consistently indicate that consumption of fruits and vegetables
lowers cancer risk in humans and suggest that certain dietary constituents may be effective …

In this study we investigated the chemopreventive effects of quercetin and rutin when added
to standard AIN-76A diet and fed to normal and azoxymethane (AOM)-treated mice. Early …
