Absorption of quercetin-3-glucoside and quercetin-4'-glucoside in the rat small intestine: the role of lactase phlorizin hydrolase and the sodium-dependent glucose transporter.

Reads0

TLDR
The mechanism of absorption of quercetin-4'-glucoside involves both an interaction with SGLT1 and luminal hydrolysis by LPH, whereas quercETin-3-glucOSide appears to be absorbed only following hydrolytic action of LPH.

Dietary flavonoid and isoflavone glycosides are hydrolysed by the lactase site of lactase phlorizin hydrolase

TL;DR: The ability of LPH to deglycosylate dietary (iso)flavonoid glycosides suggests a possible role for this enzyme in the metabolism of these biologically active compounds.

Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of quercetin glycosides in humans.

TL;DR: The disposition of quercetin in humans primarily depends on the sugar moiety, and to a minor extent, the plant matrix influences both the rate and extent of absorption in the case of buckwheat tea administration compared with the isolated compound.

The sugar moiety is a major determinant of the absorption of dietary flavonoid glycosides in man

TL;DR: It is suggested that quercetin glucoside is actively absorbed from the small intestine, whereas quercettin rutinoside is absorbed fromThe colon after deglycosylation, suggesting that Absorption of other food components might also be enhanced by attachment of a glucose group.
