Quercetin and Cancer Chemoprevention
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 Several molecules present in the diet, including flavonoids, can inhibit the growth of cancer cells with an ability to act as “chemopreventers”. Their cancer‐preventive effects have been attributed to various mechanisms, including the induction of cell‐cycle arrest and/or apoptosis as well as the antioxidant functions.

Influence of ptaquiloside on the development of newborn mice.
The Journal of Toxicological Sciences, 1987 We attempted to induce neurological disorders in mice by a single administration of various doses of ptaquiloside (PT) within 24 h after birth. Animals which survived for a long period after treatment showed a reduction in body weight, but did not develop any gait disturbance.

An Efficient Method for the Isolation of Toxins from Pteridium aquilinum and Evaluation of Ptaquiloside against Cancer and Non-cancer Cells [PDF]
, 2021 The common fern, bracken (Pteridium aquilinum), is well known for its toxic effects on livestock due principally to the carcinogenic constituent ptaquiloside (1), although other toxins are present including the cyanogenic glycoside, prunasin (2).

Passage of the bracken fern carcinogen ptaquiloside into bovine milk [PDF]
Le Lait, 1993 Summary - Ptaquiloside has been discovered for the first time in milk samples 01 a bovine fed a dietary complement (6 kg fresh weighVday) of freshly-eut bracken fronds. This was equivalent to ca 216 mg/day pure ptaquiloside. The compound was found in a quantity of no less than 0.11 mg/I in milk. This was determined by the appearance of pterosin 6 - the

Chemical and Physical Control of Bracken Fern: Effects on Mulanje Mountain and Nyika Plateau Soils
Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Pteridium aquilinum (bracken fern), a prevalent invasive species, dominates high‐elevation grasslands on Mulanje Mountain and Nyika Plateau in Malawi, displacing native vegetation, eroding biodiversity, and disrupting soil nutrient cycling within vital Afro‐montane watersheds. This four‐year field experiment employed a randomized complete block design (
