Chronic administration of the most abundant dietary flavonoid quercetin exerts
antihypertensive effects and improves endothelial function. We have investigated the effects …

The dietary flavonoid quercetin reduces blood pressure and improves endothelial function in
several rat models of hypertension. We analyzed the effects of quercetin and its methylated …

Considerable epidemiological evidence indicates that dietary consumption of moderate
levels of polyphenols decreases both the incidence of cardiovascular disease and the …

Results In SHR, quercetin reduced the increase in blood pressure and heart rate and
enhanced the endothelium-dependent aortic vasodilation induced by acetylcholine, but had …

Epidemiological studies have reported an inverse association between dietary flavonoid
intake and mortality for ischemic heart disease. Quercetin reduces blood pressure and …

RWPs (red wine polyphenols) exert antihypertensive effects and improve endothelial
function by reducing the plasma levels of ET-1 (endothelin-1) and the subsequent vascular …

Consumption of the flavonoid quercetin exerts beneficial effects on many chronic diseases.
The mechanisms involved in the vasorelaxant effect of quercetin remain uncertain. In the …

Quercetin is a major flavonoid in a wide range of fruits and vegetables. Consumption of
quercetin may contribute to a reduction in risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Following …

Endothelial dysfunction is an early pathophysiological feature and independent predictor of
poor prognosis in most forms of cardiovascular diseases. Epidemiological studies report an …

NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide (O2·–) production and oxidative stress play
important roles in endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Herein, we investigated the …
