Effect of quercetin on altered vascular reactivity in aortas isolated from streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats

The present work examined ex vivo the acute effect of quercetin on diabetic rat aortic ring reactivity in response to endotheliumdependent (acetylcholine, ACh) and endothelium-independent (sodium nitroprusside, SNP) relaxants, and to the a1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine (PE). Responses were compa...
