Popis: Constipation is the most common gastrointestinal complaint all over the world, and it is a risk factor of colorectal cancer. In this study, the protective of Quercetin against loperamide‐induced constipation and its potential mechanism in a rat model were investigated. Results showed that Quercetin at 25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg could significantly (p
Quercetin exerted a protective effect against loperamide‐induced constipation. The possible protective mechanisms of Quercetin might involve the innate immune response via modulating the c‐kit/SCF pathway and other pathways.
