Suppression of Light-Induced Retinal Degeneration by Quercetin via the AP-1 Pathway in Rats

Suppression of Light-Induced Retinal Degeneration by Quercetin via the AP-1 Pathway in Rats

We examined the cytoprotective effect of quercetin via activator protein (AP-1) and the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) pathway against light-induced retinal degeneration in rats. Quercetin was administered intraperitoneally to Sprague-Dawley rats for seven days before light exposure to intense white...
