Dietary quercetin attenuates oxidant-induced endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein e knockout mice fed a high-fat diet: A critical role for heme oxygenase-1

Several lines of evidence indicate that quercetin, a polyphenol derived in the diet from fruit and vegetables, contributes to cardiovascular health. We aimed to investigate the effects of dietary quercetin on endothelial function and atherosclerosis in mice fed a high-fat diet. Wild-type C57BL/6 (WT...
