Quinic acid ameliorates ulcerative colitis in rats, through the inhibition of two TLR4‐NF‐κB and NF‐κB‐INOS‐NO signaling pathways

Abstract

QA ameliorated UC through the inhibition of two TLR4-NF-κB and NF-κB-INOS-NO signaling pathways, which results in the reduction of colitis complications, including oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis and histopathological injuries in rats. Therefore it can be concluded, that QA exerts its therapeutic effects through antiapoptotic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
