1 Quercetin is a potent anti-atherosclerotic compound by activation of SIRT1 signaling under oxLDL stimulation. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
2 This study was designed to confirm the hypothesis that quercetin inhibits oxidized LDL (oxLDL) induced endothelial oxidative damage by activating sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and to explore the role of adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), which is a negative regulator of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase (NADPH oxidase) and free radicals. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
3 This study was designed to confirm the hypothesis that quercetin inhibits oxidized LDL (oxLDL) induced endothelial oxidative damage by activating sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and to explore the role of adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), which is a negative regulator of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase (NADPH oxidase) and free radicals. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
4 We found that quercetin pretreatment increased SIRT1 mRNA expression. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
5 In fact, quercetin protected against oxLDL-impaired SIRT1 and AMPK activities and reduced oxLDL-activated NOX2 and NOX4. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
6 However, silencing SIRT1 and AMPK diminished the protective function of quercetin against oxidative injuries. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
7 Quercetin suppresses oxLDL-induced endothelial oxidative injuries by activating SIRT1 and modulating the AMPK/NADPH oxidase/AKT/endothelial NO synthase signaling pathway. Quercetin sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
