Impact of quercetin on pulmonary toxicity induced by diesel exhaust nanoparticles in albino rat : Histological, immunohistochemical and biochemical study
Abstract:Background: Diesel exhaust nanoparticles (DENPs) are one of the most prevalent environmental pollutants that adversely affect human health. DENPs are involved in the occurrence of chronic lung diseases such as COPD, bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and cancer. Objective: Evaluation of DENPs damaging effects on the pulmonary tissue and assessment of the possible protective effects of Quercetin (QRT) on the lung tissue via histological, immunohistochemical and biochemical assessment. Materials and Methods: F… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
