Özet

Objective: Quercetin is an important member of dietary flavonoid family and widely present in red wine and Mediterranean diet. The major objective of the this study is to evaluate the beneficial effects of quercetin in protecting the myocardium from the deleterious effects of ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury in chronic quercetin treatment with or without an acute quercetin infusion protocols.
