Antioxidant activity and metabolite profile of quercetin in vitamin-E-depleted rats

Dietary antioxidants interact in a dynamic fashion, including recycling and sparing one another, to decrease oxidative stress. Limited information is available regarding the interrelationships in vivo between quercetin and vitamin E. We investigated the antioxidant activity and metabolism of quercet...

Zusammenfassung:Dietary antioxidants interact in a dynamic fashion, including recycling and sparing one another, to decrease oxidative stress. Limited information is available regarding the interrelationships in vivo between quercetin and vitamin E. We investigated the antioxidant activity and metabolism of quercetin (Q) in 65 F-344 rats ( n=13 per group) randomly assigned to the following vitamin E (VE)-replete and -deficient diets: (a) VE replete (30 mg α-tocopherol acetate/kg diet) control ad libitum (C-AL), (b) VE replete pair fed (C-PF), (c) VE replete+5.0 g Q/kg diet (R-VE+5Q), (d) VE deplete (
