Quercetin Pretreatment Attenuates Hepatic Ischemia Reperfusion-Induced Apoptosis and Autophagy by Inhibiting ERK/NF-κB Pathway

Figure 2

Effects of QE on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury. Notes: (a) the levels of serum ALT and AST changed depending on the quercetin dose, 100 mg/kg or 200 mg/kg. Data are given as means ± SD (, for sham versus IR, ^# for QE100 + IR versus IR, and ⁺ for QE200 + IR versus IR). (b) Representative H&E-stained sections of the liver were analyzed with Image-Pro Plus 6.0 (original magnification, ×200). The results show statistically significant differences among the different groups (, for sham versus IR, ^# for QE100 + IR versus IR, and ⁺ for QE200 + IR versus IR).
