Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous cellular, humoral, and molecular processes are involved in the intricate process of wound healing. PHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Numerous bioactive substances, such as ß-sitosterol, tannic acid, gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, quercetin, ellagic acid, and pyrogallol, along with their pharmacokinetics and bioavailability, have been reviewed. These phytochemicals work together to promote angiogenesis, granulation, collagen synthesis, oxidative balance, extracellular matrix (ECM) formation, cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, and re-epithelialization during wound healing. FINDINGS AND NOVELTY To improve wound contraction, this review delves into how the application of each bioactive molecule mediates with the inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling phases of wound healing to speed up the process. This review also reveals the underlying mechanisms of the phytochemicals against different stages of wound healing along with the differentiation of the in vitro evidence from the in vivo evidence There is growing interest in phytochemicals, or plant-derived compounds, due their potential health benefits. This calls for more scientific analysis and mechanistic research. The various pathways that these phytochemicals control/modulate to improve skin regeneration and wound healing are also briefly reviewed. The current review also elaborates the immunomodulatory modes of action of different phytochemicals during wound repair.

Improved in vitro bioaccessibility of quercetin by nanocomplexation with high-intensity ultrasound treated soy protein isolate. Food Chem 2023; 406:135004. [PMID: 36481514 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.135004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2020] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
The health benefits of quercetin are limited by its low bioaccessibility. This could be improved by developing plant-based protein delivery systems. Encapsulating quercetin using untreated and high-intensity ultrasound treated (20 kHz at 139 W for 10, 15 and 20 min) soy protein isolate (SPI) produced composite nanoparticles at around 127-136 nm. Ultrasound treatments on SPI caused structural changes of proteins (e.g. around 6-fold increase of surface hydrophobicity and protein solubility) favorable to encapsulation. The encapsulation efficiency for quercetin complexed with 15 min ultrasound treated SPI (76.5 %) was around 10-fold of that with the native SPI (7.2 %). Quercetin was significantly more in vitro bioaccessible when complexed with the treated SPI (61.1 %-64.5 %), as compared to the free quercetin (10.5 %-13.0 %). Ultrasound treated SPI seems to be a promising nanocarrier to encapsulate hydrophobic bioactive ingredients with higher solubility, stability, and bioaccessibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quercetin (Que) has many pharmacological activities, such as anticancer, antioxidant, cardiovascular protection, antihypertensive and lipid-lowering activities. However, its poor water solubility greatly limits its application in medicine and food. γ-Cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (γ-CD-MOFs) are novel porous carriers for loading functional products. In this study, Que was successfully loaded into γ-CD-MOFs, and the new compound (Que-CD-MOFs) was characterised by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS The apparent solubility of Que-CD-MOFs was enhanced by 100-fold compared with that of pure Que. The free radical scavenging ability of the encapsulated Que was significantly improved. The cytotoxicity of Que-CD-MOFs to HK-2 cells was decreased, and their inhibition on HT-29 tumour cells was maintained, as confirmed by CCK-8 assays. Flow cytometry of HT-29 cells showed that Que-CD-MOFs can inhibit G2 phase cells. Based on molecular modelling, Que molecules were preferentially located inside the cavities of γ-CD pairs in γ-CD-MOFs. CONCLUSION γ-CD-MOFs are promising carriers for bioactive agents in food and pharmaceutical applications. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Quercetin is a flavonoid present in the human diet with multiple health benefits. Quercetin solutions are inhomogeneous even at very low concentrations due to quercetin's tendency to aggregate. We simulate, using molecular dynamics, three systems of quercetin solutions: infinite dilution, 0.22 M, and 0.46 M. The systems at the two highest concentrations represent regions of the quercetin aggregates, in which the concentration of this molecule is unusually high. We study the behavior of this molecule, its aggregates, and the modifications in the surrounding water. In the first three successive layers of quercetin hydration, the density of water and the hydrogen bonds formations between water molecules are smaller than that of bulk. Quercetin has a hydrophilic surface region that preferentially establishes donor hydrogen bonds with water molecules with relative frequencies from 0.12 to 0.46 at infinite dilution. Also, it has two hydrophobic regions above and below the planes of its rings, whose first hydration layers are further out from quercetin (≈0.3 Å) and their water molecules do not establish hydrogen bonds with it. Water density around the hydrophobic regions is smaller than that of the hydrophilic. Quercetin molecules aggregate inπ-stacking configurations, with a distance of ≈0.37 nm between the planes of their rings, and form bonds between their hydroxyl groups. The formation of quercetin aggregates decreases the hydrogen bonds between quercetin and the surrounding water and produces a subdiffusive behavior in water molecules. Quercetin has a subdiffusive behavior even at infinite dilution, which increases with the number of molecules within the aggregates and the time they remain within them.

Abstract
Quercetin is a flavonol present in many vegetables and fruits. Generally, quercetin can be found in aglycone and glycoside forms, mainly in leaves. The absorption of this compound occurs in the large and small intestine, where it suffers glucuronidation, sulfidation, and methylation to improve hydrophilicity. After metabolization, which occurs mainly in the gut, it is distributed throughout the whole organism and is excreted by feces, urine, and exhalation of carbon dioxide. Despite its in vitro cytotoxicity effects, in vivo studies with animal models ensure its safety. This compound can protect against cancer, cardiovascular diseases, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and neurodegenerative diseases due to its radical scavenging and anti-inflammatory properties. However, its poor bioavailability dampens the potential beneficial effects of this flavonoid. In that sense, many types of nanocarriers have been developed to improve quercetin solubility, as well as to design tissue-specific delivery systems. All these studies manage to improve the bioavailability of quercetin, allowing it to increase its concentration in the desired places. Collectively, quercetin can become a promising compound if nanotechnology is employed as a tool to enhance its therapeutic efficacy.

Quercetin as an Auxiliary Endodontic Irrigant for Root Canal Treatment: Anti-Biofilm and Dentin Collagen-Stabilizing Effects In Vitro. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14051178.

Abstract
Bacterial reinfection and root fracture are the main culprits related to root canal treatment failure. This study aimed to assess the utility of quercetin solution as an adjunctive endodontic irrigant that does not weaken root canal dentin with commitment anti-biofilm activity and bio-safety. Based on a noninvasive dentin infection model, dentin tubules infected with Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) were irrigated with sterile water (control group), and 0, 1, 2, 4 wt% quercetin-containing ethanol solutions. Live and dead bacteria percentages in E. faecalis biofilms were analyzed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Elastic modulus, hydroxyproline release and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterization were tested to evaluate the irrigants’ collagen-stabilizing effect. The cytotoxicity was tested by CCK-8 assay. Quercetin increased the proportion of dead bacteria volumes within E. faecalis and improved the flexural strength of dentin compared to control group (p < 0.05). Quercetin-treated dentin matrix had less elasticity loss and hydroxyproline release after collagenase degradation (p < 0.05). Moreover, quercetin solutions revealed an increase in the C-O peak area under both C1s and O1s narrow-scan spectra of XPS characterization, and no cytotoxicity (p > 0.05). Quercetin exhibited anti-biofilm activity, a collagen-stabilizing effect with cytocompatibility, supporting quercetin as a potential candidate for endodontic irrigant.

Abstract
In spite of its considerable value as a predictor of in vivo genotoxicity and even for carcinogenicity, false positive cases were reported for the Ames test, e.g., with a number of natural food constituents. Here we analyzed the effects of juice of Allium cepa, the common onion, a staple food and traditional remedy used in many civilizations, in the Ames fluctuation assay. We could find mild mutagenicity with an onion juice extract in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100, the latter being less sensitive towards the extract. Mutagenicity was not influenced markedly by the presence of rat liver S9 mix. Onion juice also exerted some toxicity to the bacteria in the same concentration range. Comparative studies with quercetin and rutin, major flavonoid glycosides in onions, revealed a mutagenic potency of quercetin with an EC50-value of 4 μM in TA98. The contents of quercetin and rutin in onion juice were determined as 0.71 ± 0.20, and 0.71 ± 0.21 mg/kg. Calculations of quercetin and rutin concentrations in mutagenic dilutions revealed that both compounds are highly unlikely to cause the mutagenic effects of onion juice and that other yet undefined constituents must be responsible for these effects.

Comparison of Polysaccharides as Coatings for Quercetin-Loaded Liposomes (QLL) and Their Effect as Antioxidants on Radical Scavenging Activity. Polymers (Basel) 2020; 12:polym12122793.

Abstract
Liposomes are microstructures containing lipid and aqueous phases employed in the encapsulation and delivery of bioactive agents. Quercetin-loaded liposomes (QLLs) were coated with three different polysaccharides and then tested as radical scavengers. Lactose (LCQLL), chitosan (CCQLL), and inulin (ICQLL) were employed as coating materials. Particle size determined by light scattering, showed primary size of 200 nm for all samples, while a secondary particle size of 600 nm was observed for CCQLL. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) evidenced particle aggregation with the addition of the polysaccharide coating. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the layered microstructure of liposomes composed of at least two layers, and primary particle size below 100 nm. QLL showed higher antioxidant activity than the coated liposomes. This behavior was attributed to the chemical interaction between quercetin and the corresponding coating polysaccharide in the layered structure, which traps the quercetin and keeps it unavailable for radical scavenging. From the three polysaccharides, lactose showed a better performance as coating material in the antioxidant activity, which suggested that the smaller size of the disaccharide molecule resulted in a faster releasing of the quercetin in the solution. Thus, LCQLL is an advantageous way to deliver quercetin for antioxidant purposes, where the low stability in delivered media of quercetin loaded liposomes is commonly compromised.

Abstract
The effect of bacteria (Bacillus clausii) addition on the culturability and antioxidant activity of resveratrol prepared by spray drying was studied in this work. Inulin and lactose were employed as carrying agents and their performance compared. Resveratrol microencapsulated in inulin showed the highest antioxidant activity (26%) against free radicals. The co-encapsulated materials (bacteria and resveratrol) in inulin and lactose showed similar activities (21%, and 23%, respectively) suggesting that part of resveratrol was absorbed by the bacteria. Particles showed a regular spherical morphology with smooth surfaces, and size in the micrometer range (2–25 μm). The absence of bacteria in the SEM micrographs and the culturability activity suggested the preservation of the organisms within the micro and co-microencapsulated particles. The present work proposes the preparation of a functional food with probiotic and antioxidant properties.

Abstract
The industrial implementation of new eco-friendly solvents has highlighted the need to analyse both the structures and thermophysical properties of these solvents. Here, two deep eutectic solvents (DESs) used in the agro-food field were studied: xylitol:choline chloride:water (1:2:3 M ratio), XoCH, and citric acid:choline chloride:water (1:1:6 M ratio), CiCH. The H-bond network between the components of each DES was evaluated and the diffusion coefficients at 298.15 K were calculated using NMR spectroscopy. In addition, seven thermophysical properties were determined from 278.15 to 338.15 K. Also, the solubility of quercetin in water and in the two eutectic mixtures was measured and the interactions between components were studied. NMR experiments revealed the presence of water within the supramolecular structure of XoCH, but CiCH is a "DES-in-water" solution. Based on the results, XoCH is the most compact mixture. Finally, quercetin was remarkably more soluble in the studied DESs than in pure water.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to develop biocompatible and conducting coating being carrier of biologically active compounds with the potential use in neuroprosthetics. Conducting polypyrrole matrix has been used to immobilize and release model drugs, quercetin and ciprofloxacin. Two routes of immobilization are described: drugs have been incorporated in the polymer matrix in the course of the electropolymerization process or after polymerization, in the course of polymer oxidation. Using UV/Vis spectroscopic detection we demonstrate that both immobilization approaches display different drug-loading efficiencies. In the case of ciprofloxacin, drug incorporation following synthesis is a more efficient immobilization approach (final drug concentration: 43.3 (±9.5) μM/cm(2)), while for quercetin the highest loading is accomplished by drug incorporation during synthesis (final drug concentration: 29.1 (±5.9) μM/cm(2)). The process of drug incorporation results in the variation of surface morphology with respect to the method of immobilization as well as the choice of drug. The results prove that electrochemical methods are efficient procedures for making multifunctional polymer matrices which might be perspective bioactive coatings for implantable neuroprosthetic devices.
