 | Symons, John David; Jalili, Thunder; Litwin, Sheldon E. | Quercetin-supplemented diets lower blood pressure and attenuate cardiac hypertrophy in rats with aortic constriction | Quercetin (Q), a flavonoid found in berries and onions, can reduce blood pressure in hypertensive animals and inhibit signal transduction pathways in vitro that regulate cardiac hypertrophy. We hypothesized that quercetin could prevent cardiovascular complications in rats with abdominal aortic con... | 2006 | |
