Fever is considered an important component of the acute phase response of the body in defence against invading organisms such as bacteria. Quercetin, an important representative of the flavonoid class, has been extensively studied as an anti-inflammatory agent. In the present study, we investigated the effect of quercetin, administered orally (5, 25 and 50 mg kg(-1)) or intraperitoneally (50 mg kg(-1)), on the febrile response induced by either intraperitoneally (50 mu g kg(-1)) or intravenously (5 mu g kg(-1)) injected lipopolysaccharide (LPS from Escherichia coli) in rats. In contrast with the well known anti-inflammatory activity of quercetin, the results demonstrate that quercetin, at the doses used, did not alter the fever induced by LPS, regardless of the route of administration.
