Quercimeritrin
0 ImagesQuercimeritrin (Quercetin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside) is an orally active α-glucosidase inhibitor (with an IC50 of 79.88 μM against the Saccharomyces cerevisiae enzyme) and a P-gp substrate, with anti-angiogenic and antioxidant activities. Quercimeritrin does not cross the blood-brain barrier and does not inhibit cytochrome P450 enzymes. Quercimeritrin precisely binds to and inhibits the active sites of c-Kit, MMP-2, Aurora-A kinases and α-glucosidase, thereby disrupting target functions. Quercimeritrin effectively regulates postprandial blood glucose and also exhibits significant anti-angiogenic activity, which inhibits endothelial cell proliferation and microvascular growth. Quercimeritrin can be used in the research of diabetes and breast cancer.
