Quercetin
Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant. It can scavenge free radicals such as superoxide anions, hydroxyl radicals, and peroxyl radicals. These free radicals are highly reactive molecules that can cause damage to cellular components like DNA, proteins, and lipids. By neutralizing these free radicals, quercetin helps to protect cells from oxidative stress and reduces the risk of various diseases related to oxidative damage, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. For example, in vitro studies have shown that quercetin can effectively prevent the oxidation of low - density lipoprotein (LDL), which is a key factor in the development of atherosclerosis.
Anti - inflammatory Effects
It has significant anti - inflammatory properties. Quercetin can inhibit the production and release of pro - inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin - 1β (IL - 1β), interleukin - 6 (IL - 6), and tumor necrosis factor - α (TNF - α). These cytokines play a crucial role in the inflammatory response and are involved in many chronic inflammatory diseases like arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. Additionally, quercetin can suppress the activation of nuclear factor - κB (NF - κB), a transcription factor that regulates the expression of many inflammatory genes. In animal models of inflammation, quercetin treatment has been shown to reduce tissue inflammation and swelling.
