Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of apoptosis in cancer cells by Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) and the anthocyanins.
TL;DR: Results indicate that the bilberry extract and the anthocyanins, bearing delphinidin or malvidin as the aglycon, inhibit the growth of HL60 cells through the induction of apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flavonoids Inhibit Cell Growth and Induce Apoptosis in B16 Melanoma 4A5 Cells
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that isoliquiritigenin and butein inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in B16 melanoma cells and it seems that the pathway by which the chalcones induce apoptose may be independent of p53 and dependent on proteins of the Bcl-2 family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide as an antioxidative metabolite in rat plasma after oral administration of quercetin
TL;DR: This is, to the authors' knowledge, the first evidence that Q3GA accumulates in vivo after oral administration of quercetin, because this conjugated metabolite was found to possess a substantial antioxidant effect on copper ion-induced oxidation of human plasma low-density lipoprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant Compounds from Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Möench) Hulls
TL;DR: In this paper, the buckwheat hulls were separated by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography into eight fractions and five antioxidant compounds were identified by preparative HPLC and identified as quercetin, hyperin, rutin, protocatechuic acid, and 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidative activity of quercetin and quercetin monoglucosides in solution and phospholipid bilayers
TL;DR: It is concluded that quercetin acts as an antioxidant more efficiently than its monoglucosides when phospholipid bilayers are exposed to aqueous oxygen radicals.
