Quercetin relieves D‐amphetamine‐induced manic‐like behaviour through activating TREK‐1 potassium channels in mice

Abstract

Quercetin is a well‐known plant flavonoid with neuroprotective properties. Earlier work suggested it may relieve psychiatric disorders, cognition deficits and memory dysfunction through anti‐oxidant and/or radical scavenging mechanisms. In addition, quercetin modulated the physiological function of some ion channels. However, the detailed ionic mechanisms of the bioeffects of quercetin remain unknown.
