“Furthermore, the concentration of angiogenesis-associated factors (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A and VEGF-receptor 2) and percentage of Tie2-expressing monocytes was significantly down-regulated in combined treatments with quercetin and irinotecan.”
“In the AGS xenograft mouse model, gene expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related markers, such as Twist1 and ITGβ6, were lower in combined treatments with quercetin and low-dose irinotecan than high-dose irinotecan alone.”
