Journal ArticleDOI
The Anti-Cancer Effect of Quercetin: Molecular Implications in Cancer Metabolism.
TL;DR: The role of quercetin in cancer metabolism is discussed, addressing specifically its ability to target molecular pathways involved in glucose metabolism and mitochondrial function.
Journal ArticleDOI
The deleterious effect of cholesterol and protection by quercetin on mitochondrial bioenergetics of pancreatic β-cells, glycemic control and inflammation: in vitro and in vivo studies
Catalina Carrasco-Pozo,Catalina Carrasco-Pozo,Kah Ni Tan,Marjorie Reyes-Farias,Nicole de la Jara,Shyuan T. Ngo,Diego F. Garcia-Diaz,Paola Llanos,Maria Jose Cires,Karin Borges +9 more
TL;DR: The anti-apoptotic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of quercetin, and its ability to protect and improve mitochondrial bioenergetic function are likely to contribute to its protective action against cholesterol-induced pancreatic β-cell dysfunction, thereby preserving glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and glycemic control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulp, Leaf, Peel and Seed of Avocado Fruit: A Review of Bioactive Compounds and Healthy Benefits
Paula Jimenez,Paula García,Vilma Quitral,Karla Vasquez,Claudia Parra-Ruiz,Marjorie Reyes-Farias,Diego F. Garcia-Diaz,Paz Robert,Cristian Encina,Jessica Soto-Covasich +9 more
TL;DR: Main bioactive compounds identified in pulp and wastes are polyphenols, carotenoids, tocopherols, and phytosterols, which have potential applications in food and pharmaceutical industries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chilean native fruit extracts inhibit inflammation linked to the pathogenic interaction between adipocytes and macrophages.
Marjorie Reyes-Farias,Karla Vasquez,Angelica Ovalle-Marin,Francisco Fuentes,Claudia Parra,Vilma Quitral,Paula Jimenez,Diego F. Garcia-Diaz +7 more
TL;DR: The extracts of maqui and calafate present important inhibitory-like features over the inflammatory response of the interaction between adipocytes and macrophages, comprising a potential therapeutic tool against comorbidities associated with obesity development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quercetin Prevents Diastolic Dysfunction Induced by a High-Cholesterol Diet: Role of Oxidative Stress and Bioenergetics in Hyperglycemic Rats
Rodrigo L. Castillo,Emilio A. Herrera,Alejandro González-Candia,Marjorie Reyes-Farias,Nicole de la Jara,Juan Pedro Peña,Juan Pedro Peña,Juan Pedro Peña,Catalina Carrasco-Pozo,Catalina Carrasco-Pozo +9 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms that support the cardioprotective effect of QUE in rats with HC might be mediated by the upregulation of antioxidant mechanisms and improved bioenergetics on the heart.
