Description Gastric ulcer is a multifaceted process that involves reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, extracellular
matrix degradation and mitochondrial damage. Mitochondria play a crucial role for homeostasis
of ROS and cell survival. In our study, we investigated the efficacy and mechanism of polymeric nanocapsuled
quercetin (NQC) over the free quercetin (QC) molecule in prevention of ethanol-induced gastric
ulcer in rat. NQC possessed significantly higher efficacy (w20 fold) than free QC while preventing gastric
ulcers. Our data show that prior administration of NQC and/or QC significantly blocked synthesis and
secretion of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 as well as infiltration of inflammatory cells and oxidative
damage in rat gastric tissues. As compared to free QC, NQC protected much better the mitochondrial
integrity and size along with mitochondrial functions by controlling succinate dehydrogenase and NADH
oxidase in rat gastric tissues. In addition, both free QC and NQC down regulated PARP-1 as well as
apoptosis during protection against ethanol-induced gastric ulcer. Herein, the effect of NQC was greater
than QC on expression of enzymes like cyclooxygenase and nitric oxidase synthase (NOS)-2.We conclude
that NQC with greater bioavailability offers significantly higher potency in downregulating MMP-9 and
NOS-2 as well as oxidative stress in blocking ethanol-induced gastric ulcer.
