Quercetin suppresses the proliferation of thyroid cancer cells by reducing the expression level of DPP4 and inhibiting its enzyme activity

Key Points

• Quercetin significantly reduces the proliferation of thyroid cancer cells, suggesting its potential as a treatment.
• Inhibition of DPP4 activity by quercetin correlates with decreased cancer cell growth across multiple assays.
• Enzyme activity measurements indicate a direct link between quercetin treatment and DPP4 suppression, affecting cell cycle regulation.
• These findings highlight quercetin's potential role in thyroid cancer therapy, although clinical outcomes need further exploration.
