"The protective effect of isoquercetin on hypercoagulability observed in 57 cancer patients was reported in a clinical trial conducted by Zwicker et al. (2019)."
"The PDI activity following 2 months of daily administration was significantly decreased in both cohorts, with median changes of 37 and 73% respectively."
"Myricetin at 10 μM inhibited approximately 60 and 40% of the enzymatic activity of PDI (protein disulfide isomerase) and ERp5 (endoplasmic reticulum protein 5), enzymes responsible for the formation of disulfide bridges"
"It was suggested that myricetin inhibited the reductase activity of PDI and ERp5 due to non‐covalent bonds between the compound and amino acids adjacent to the active redox site of these proteins."
"In conclusion, myricetin inhibited platelet aggregation induced by thrombin and collagen pathways, possibly to the inhibition of common molecules in both pathways, such as ERp5 and PDI."
"Chen et al. (2021) evaluated the antiplatelet activity of dihydromyricetin in PRP using as agonists thrombin at 0.08 U/ml, collagen at 2 μg/ml, and ADP at 10 μM."
"Likewise, when thrombin stimulated platelet aggregation, dihydromyticetin at 200 μM inhibited 70% of α‐granule secretion and diminished 60% of calcium intracellular elevation."
"Finally, dihydromyricetin at 200 μM interfered with thrombin‐induced extracellular signal‐regulated kinases (ERK) and p38 activation in platelets and endothelial cells."
"Authors concluded that dihydromyricetin at the molecular level targets mitogen‐activated protein kinase signaling leading to attenuated calcium elevation, a central signaling node regulating granule secretion, integrin activation, and TF exposure."
"Wu, Zhang, et al. (2020) reported the thrombin and FXa inhibition due to luteolin, dihydroquercetin, epigallocatechin gallate, and epicatechin gallate, all at 0.5 mM,"
"By contrast, epigallocatechin gallate showed the highest inhibition with values of 96, 73, and 83% for FXa, thrombin, and dual‐target inhibition respectively."
"Dihydroquercetin reported preferential inhibition for FXa (81%), and epigallocatechin gallate showed inhibition with values of 38, 70, and 58% for FXa, thrombin, and dual‐target inhibition respectively."
"Finally, molecular interactions between enzyme flavonoids were verified via molecular docking, corroborating the selective effect of dihydroquercetin and the dual effect of epigallocatechin gallate."
"In conclusion, epigallocatechin gallate could be considered a prominent anticoagulant drug since it reported a great inhibitory effect on thrombin and FXa, which may be considered effective dual‐target inhibitors."

"In mammals, PDK1-PDK4 are expressed in tissue- or cell-type-specific ways by four different genes, which are responsible for tissue- or cell-specific regulation of PDC."
"MT is a product of the tryptophan pathway, with tryptophan-derived serotonin being converted to N-acetylserotonin (NAS) by aralkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT)."
"NAS is enzymatically converted to MT by acetylserotonin methyltransferase (ASMT)."
Interfering with type I Interferons (IFN-α, IFN-β) to purge persistent viral infections #LongCovid#MECFS
"Consistent with the ongoing antiviral activity of IFN-I, blockade of IFN-I signaling initially increased virus titers, but then ultimately facilitated the control of the persistent infection."
"In conclusion, myricetin inhibited platelet aggregation induced by thrombin and collagen pathways, possibly to the inhibition of common molecules in both pathways, such as ERp5 and PDI."
"Treatment with Mg(2+), a RyR2 inhibitor, normalized myocyte Ca(2+) cycling and decreased CPVT in mutant mice, indicating RyR2 dysfunction was critical to mutant CASQ2 pathophysiology."
