説明

  To clarify the antioxidative role of quercetin metabolites in cellular oxidative stress, we measured the inhibitory effects of the quercetin aglycon and quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide (Q3GA), which is one of the quercetin metabolites in the blood after an intake of quercetin-rich food, on the production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced intracellular reactive oxygen species in mouse fibroblast 3T3 cultured cells. When the cells were exposed to H2O2 in the presence of quercetin or Q3GA, Q3GA was found to be less effective than quercetin. In the case of a pretreatment with quercetin or Q3GA before the exposure, Q3GA, but not the quercetin aglycon, exerted an inhibitory effect, although its cellular uptake was unlikely. The quercetin aglycon appeared to fail in its antioxidative effect due to metabolic conversion into isorhamnetin conjugates, with substantial oxidative degradation resulting from the pretreatment. It is, therefore, suggested that quercetin metabolites take part in the protection of intracellular oxidative stress induced by the extraneous attack of H2O2.<br>
