CG: control group; VG: vehicle group; QG: quercetin group; CSG: cigarette smoke group; QCSG: quercetin and cigarette smoke group, ALT: alanine aminotransferase; AST: aspartate aminotransferase; GGT-1: gamma-glutamyltransferase; LDH: lactate dehydrogenase. a represents a significant difference between groups when compared to CG; b represents a significant difference between groups when compared to VG; c represents a significant difference between groups when compared to QG. ALT, AST, GGT-1, LDH, and body weight were expressed as and were analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s posttest, animals per group ().
