| Plant pigment (flavonoid) found in red wine, onions, green tea, apples and berries. Quercetin is thought to contribute to anticancer effects through several mechanisms: -Antioxidant Activity: -Induction of Apoptosis:modify Bax:Bcl-2 ratio -Anti-inflammatory Effects: -Cell Cycle Arrest: -Inhibition of Angiogenesis and Metastasis: (VEGF) Cellular Pathways: -PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway: central to cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. -MAPK/ERK Pathway: influencing cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. -NF-κB Pathway: downregulate NF-κB -JAK/STAT Pathway: interfere with the activation of STAT3 -Apoptotic Pathways: intrinsic (mitochondrial) and extrinsic (death receptor-mediated) pathways Quercetin has been used at doses around 500–1000 mg per day Quercetin’s bioavailability from foods or standard supplements can be low. -Note half-life 11 to 28 hours. BioAv low 1-10%, poor water-solubility, consuming with fat may improve bioavialability. also piperine or VitC. Pathways: - induce ROS production in cancer cells (higher dose). Typicallys Lowers ROS in normal cells(unless it is high dose?)or depends on Redox status?.

| IκB (Inhibitor of Nuclear Factor kappa B) proteins are critical regulators of the NF-κB signaling pathway, which plays a significant role in inflammation, immune response, and cell survival. IκB kinase/NF-κB (IKK/NF-κB) signaling pathways play critical roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. One function of NF-κB is promotion of cell survival through induction of target genes, whose products inhibit components of the apoptotic machinery in normal and cancerous cells. NFKB inhibitor α (IκB‑α) acts as a negative regulator of the classical NF‑κB pathway through its ability to maintain the presence of NF‑κB in the cytoplasm. IκB (Inhibitor of κB) proteins play a crucial role in regulating the NF-κB (Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) signaling pathway, which is involved in various cellular processes, including inflammation, immune response, and cell survival. The NF-κB pathway is tightly regulated, and its dysregulation has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers. In many cancers, the degradation of IκB is enhanced, leading to constitutive activation of NF-κB. This can promote tumor growth and survival by upregulating genes involved in cell proliferation and anti-apoptotic factors. IκB proteins generally act as tumor suppressors by inhibiting NF-κB activity. When IκB is downregulated, NF-κB is activated, leading to increased cell proliferation, survival, and inflammation, which can promote tumor growth. It is generally down regulated in cancers, with poorer prognosis. |
