Exposure of endothelial cells to tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) results in increased endothelial permeability, accompanied by a loss of cell-cell adherence junctions. The importance of tyrosine phosphatase and kinase activity in oxidant-mediated loss of cell junction structures has been
OBJECTIVE
To examine whether danshensu could protect vascular endothelia in a rat model of hyperhomocysteinemia.
METHODS
The model was established by feeding rats with a methionine-rich diet (1 g·kg⁻¹·d⁻¹) for 3 months. Immediately following the discontinuation of methionine-rich diet, rats were
Heart failure, characterized by impaired systolic and/or diastolic function, is a common cardiovascular disease. The loss of cardiomyocytes due to various factors, including through necrosis or apoptosis can result in heart failure. Previous studies have indicated that excessive aldosterone (ALD)
OBJECTIVE
In the present experiment, we aimed to determine the feasibility and curative effects of emodin combined with danshensu on experimental severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the mutual benefit of this synergistic strategy by a prospective animal study.
METHODS
Eighty Wistar rats were
This study was to evaluate the protective effects of Danshensu on liver injury induced by omethoate in Sprague Dawley rats. The acute omethoate poisoning model was established by administrating subcutaneously with omethoate at a single dose of 60 mg/kg. Danshensu treatment markedly inhibited the
Parkinson's disease (PD) causes major changes in dopaminergic neurons of the brain, resulting in motor symptoms in older adults. A previous study showed that Danshensu alleviates the cognitive decline by attenuating neuroinflammation. In the present study, we investigated the neuroprotective effect
Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, is often used for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis. To understand its mechanism of pharmacological action, its effects on endothelial monolayer permeability are studied. The present study
Danshensu is a bioactive constituent of Salvia miltiorrhiza, a plant commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine. In this study, we investigated the pharmacological efficacy of sodium danshensu, or named salvianic acid A sodium (SAS) on ultraviolet B (UVB)-mediated corneal inflammatory injury in
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) from keratinocyte play important roles in initiating the inflammatory process of acne. They are used as major elements to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of drugs. In this study, various active constituents extracted from Chinese
Danshen (Salvia Miltiorrhiza Radix et Rhizoma) is a valued herbal plant widely used to treat cardiovascular diseases in Asian countries. In modern medicine, innate immunity-induced inflammation is considered a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the In this study, we examined the protective effects of Danshen both on endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in patients with hypercholesterolemia and on in-vitro EPCs of healthy volunteers. In the clinical study, we randomly divided 24 subjects with hypercholesterolemia into two groups (the control
Endometriosis is a common mysterious and fascinating gynaecological condition with diverse clinical manifestations, highly variable and unpredictable clinical course with decreased quality of life. Clinically, Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (SMB, Chinese Danshen) has been applied to treat endometriosis
