Quercetin and Cancer Chemoprevention [PDF]
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 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.
