  • Title: Quercetin alleviates bisphenol A-induced changes in nucleic acid and protein contents in mice.
    Author: Sangai NP, Verma JR.
    Journal: Acta Pol Pharm; 2011; 68(6):867-73. PubMed ID: 22125951.
    Abstract:
    The present study was an attempt to examine toxic effects of bisphenol A in liver and kidney of mice and its alleviation by quercetin. Oral administration of bisphenol A (60 and 120 mg/kg b. w./day) for 30 days caused, as compared to vehicle control significant, dose-dependent decrease in DNA, RNA and protein contents in liver and kidney of mice. Supplementation of quercetin (60 mg/kg b. w./day) along with bisphenol A for 30 days caused, as compared to bisphenol A alone treated groups, significant alleviation in DNA, RNA and protein contents. The amelioration was comparatively higher for high dose bisphenol A plus quercetin treated group than that of low dose plus quercetin treated group.
