Endothelial function and cardiovascular disease: effects of quercetin and wine polyphenols.

abstract：:It is well known that reperfusion damage of ischemic myocardium may be attributed to alterations in the antioxidant defense system against free radical aggression. In addition, the degree of myocardial damage may depend on the duration and severity of ischemia that precedes reperfusion. We carried out serial ischemic ...
