Description
Quercetin (QCT) is a dietary flavonoid with reported antioxidant and neuroprotective properties, but direct comparisons with established antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid (AA), under chemically induced neurotoxic stress are limited. We compared Quercetin and AA in adult D. melanogaster using a manganese (Mn)-sensitized model to capture Parkinson-like motor and biochemical vulnerability.
