Effects
(1) Oral administration of nanoencapsulated quercetin in zein nanoparticles (NPQ, 25 mg/kg every 48 h for 2 months) improved the memory and cognition impairments and decreased the astrogliosis in SAMP8 (Senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8) mice; (2) zein nanoparticles improve the oral absorption and bioavailability of quercetin;
