“…It has been reported that quercetin inhibits CYP enzymes (CYP3A4 and CYP2C9), sulfotransferases (SULT1), organic anion transporters (OAT1), organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATP1A2 and OATP2B1), and ATP-binding cassette transporters (MRP1, P-gp, and BCRP); while it increases the expression of CYP3A4, CYP1A1, and P-gp (Kimura et al, 2010;Miron et al, 2017;Poór et al, 2017). In addition to quercetin, its metabolites (e.g., isorhamnetin, quercetin-3'-O-sulfate, and quercetin glucuronides) can also affect the function of enzymes and transporters, including CYP2C9, CYP3A4, OATs, and GLUT (glucose transporter) (Csepregi et al, 2018;Kimura et al, 2010;Miron et al, 2017;Poór et al, 2017). As reported in animal and human studies, quercetin significantly affects the pharmacokinetics of several drugs by interacting with CYP3A4, P-gp, and other biotransformation enzymes and transporters (Andres et al, 2018 than the nominal quantity); therefore, they may induce clinically relevant interactions with certain drugs.…”
