Isoquercetin is a flavonoid with diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, antiproliferative, and anti-inflammatory properties[1, 2]. Due to its high bioavailability and low toxicity, Isoquercetin is a promising candidate for preventing congenital defects in diabetic pregnancy[3].
In vitro, pretreatment of primary cultured rat cortical neurons with Isoquercetin (20, 40, 80µg/mL) for 24h reduced the increase in intracellular calcium concentration and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) injury, and prevented the decrease in cell viability[4]. Pretreatment of HepG2 cells with Isoquercetin (10μM) for 1h significantly downregulated ethanol-induced iNOS protein expression levels in the cells[5].
In vivo, intravenous administration of Isoquercetin (50mg/kg) for 7 days to rats subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) injury reduced the cerebral infarct volume and mitigated the decrease in Nrf2 expression levels in hippocampal tissue[6]. Oral administration of Isoquercetin (20mg/kg) for 3 days to rats subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) injury reduced the cerebral infarct volume, improved neurological deficits, and decreased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in brain tissue[7].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Primary culture of rat cortical neurons |
Preparation Method | The primary culture of rat cortical neurons were pretreated with 20, 40 and 80µg/mL Isoquercetin and 2.5, 5µg/mL nimodipine, respectively, for 24h, followed by exposure to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 6h, then reperfusion for 24h. The cortical neurons cultured in plain medium served as control. |
Reaction Conditions | 20, 40, 80µg/mL; 24h |
Applications | Isoquercetin administered prior to the insult could prevent OGD/R-induced intracellular calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) increase, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and cell viability decrease. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats |
Preparation Method | The rats were randomly allocated to one of four groups: Control, sham, model and Isoquercetin. In the model group, rats were anesthetized via the intraperitoneal injection of 10% chloral hydrate. The rectal temperature was monitored and maintained at 37.0±0.5˚C by the use of a feedback‑regulated heating system during surgery. Permanent focal ischemia was induced by occluding the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) via an intraluminal technique. Briefly, a 4‑0 nylon monofilament suture with a slightly enlarged rounded tip was inserted into the stump of the external carotid artery and advanced into the lumen of the internal carotid artery until it reached and occluded the MCA. The distance from the bifurcation of the common carotid artery (CCA) to the tip of the inserted suture averaged 18‑20mm. Sham operated animals were subjected to the aforementioned procedures, with the exception of suture insertion. Rats in the Isoquercetin group were subjected to MCAO surgery and treated with intravenous 50mg/kg Isoquercetin once a day for 7 days. Rats that did not undergo any surgery served as the control group. |
Dosage form | 50mg/kg; 7 days; i.v. |
Applications | The rats treated with Isoquercetin exhibited a lower degree of neurological dysfunction and smaller infarct volume than the vehicle‑treated rats. In the hippocampal tissue, the expression of Nrf2 at the mRNA and protein levels was decreased in the model group 7 days after ischemia, and the reduction in expression levels was significantly attenuated in the Isoquercetin treated-group. |
