Quercetin, caffeic acid, and resveratrol influence daily rhythm and aging genes in young and old human lung cells

Abstract

Quercetin and caffeic acid increased clock gene expression in old fibroblast cells compared to resveratrol.

  • Quercetin enhanced Sirt1 expression, while caffeic acid increased Sirt6 expression, suggesting potential anti-aging effects.
  • In young fibroblast cells, both quercetin and caffeic acid demonstrated higher expression of clock-controlled genes (Sirt1 and NR1D1) than resveratrol.
  • Caffeic acid may influence NRF2 expression, which is linked to the actions of GRα, GDF11, Sirt1, and Sirt6.
  • The activation effect of caffeic acid on Per1 was confirmed to impact NR1D1 expression in young fibroblast cells.
  • Findings indicate a connection between circadian clock genes and cellular aging.
