Nutritional Preconditioning of Apigenin Alleviates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury via the Mitochondrial Pathway Mediated by Notch1/Hes1

Table 1

Api preserved reduced the levels of lipid peroxidation, the activities of antioxidant enzymes, and the ferric reducing antioxidant power in the myocardium against SI/R injury.
