Abstract
Accumulated evidence suggests that quercetin, a dietary flavonoid, has beneficial effects in protection against cardiovascular diseases and in the inhibition of tumour growth. We have recently shown that antioxidants such as 17β-estradiol, resveratrol, dithiothreitol and vitamin C activate membrane-bound guanylate cyclase GC-A, a receptor for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Since quercetin is a phytoestrogen and potent antioxidant, it is possible that it may activate GC-A or other guanylate cyclase isoforms. We examined whether quercetin activates GC-A or GC-B (the receptor for C-type natriuretic peptide, CNP) in PC12 and porcine kidney proximal tubular LLC-PK1 cells. The results showed that quercetin activated a guanylate cyclase isoform in both cell types. Quercetin inhibited CNP-stimulated GC-B activity, but had little effect on ANF-stimulated GC-A activity in PC12 cells, suggesting that quercetin mainly activates GC-B in PC12 cells. In contrast, CNP had no effect on guanylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 cells, indicating that GC-B is not expressed in LLC-PK1 cells. Furthermore, quercetin had a small effect on ANF-stimulated GC-A activity and had no effect on soluble guanylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 cells, suggesting that quercetin does not activate GC-A, GC-B or soluble guanylate cyclase in LLC-PK1 cells. However, quercetin did stimulate membrane-bound guanylate cyclase activity in LLC-PK1 cell membranes. These results indicate that quercetin activates the GC-B isoform in PC12 cells, but activates an unknown membrane-bound guanylate cyclase isoform in LLC-PK1 cells.
