Apoptosis is a common pathological feature in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The infarct size is an important determinant of the prognosis of AMI. In recent years, Chinese medicinal herbs and their extracts have received great attention in prevention of AMI. The aim of this investigation was to
OBJECTIVE
The current study tests the hypothesis that inhibition of apoptotic cell death with total flavones from Elsholtzia blanda (TFEB), a traditional Chinese medicine, reduces infarct size and improves heart function during myocardial ischaemia induced by coronary occlusion in
Choerospondias axillaris (Guangzao) is a medicinal plant used in Mongolia, and its fruit is commonly used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in clinic. The constituents responsible for this effect are always conceded to be the total flavonoids of C. axillaries (TFC). The present study was
In acute myocardial infarction (AMI) the first line of treatment is to rapidly restore blood flow to the ischemic myocardium to limit infarct size. It is now well established that though clearly beneficial the positive outcomes of this intervention are limited by injury in response to the
This study was undertaken to determine the effect of total flavones from Elsholtzia blanda (Benth.) Benth. (TFEB), a traditional Chinese medicine, on myocardial ischemia induced by coronary occlusion in Beagle dogs. Infarct size of left ventricle, serum activity of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and
Flavonols and flavones are antioxidant polyphenolic compounds found in tea, vegetables, fruits, and wine. In experimental studies they have been effective free radical scavengers, metal chelators, and antithrombotic agents. In the few epidemiologic studies of these agents, some have suggested an
Flavonoids are non-nutritive compounds of plants that have been intensively investigated during the past years due to their possible protective effects against chronic diseases. In vitro studies were able to demonstrate for flavonols, flavones, and most recently also for anthocyanins a considerable
This study investigated the effect of total flavone from Rhododendron simsii Planch. flower (TFR) on postischemic cardiac dysfunction and ventricular remodeling and was to test the hypothesis that TFR has an antiventricular remodeling effect through inhibition of urotensin-II receptor- (UTR-)
Total flavones of Rhododendron simsii Planch flower (TFR) have a significant protective effect against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, its mechanism is unclear. This study investigated the protection of TFR against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury via cystathionine-γ-lyase- (CSE-)
UNASSIGNED
Total flavones from Rhododendron simsii Planch. (TFR) are the effective part extracted from the flowers of Rhododendron simsii Planch. and have obvious protective effects against cerebral ischemic or myocardial injuries in rabbits and rats. However, their mechanism of cardioprotection is
Many flavonoids have cardioprotection against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Total flavones from Rhododendron simsii Planch flower (TFR) can protect myocardial ischemic injuries. However, its protective mechanism is still unknown. The present study was designed to investigate the
Our previous studies have indicated that pretreatment with total flavones of Rhododendra flower (TFR) may protect against myocardial ischemic injuries in rats and mice. The cystathionine γ-lyase/hydrogen sulfide (CSE/H2S) pathway have been associated with several cardiovascular
OBJECTIVE
To study the protective effect and mechanism of total flavone from Elsholtzia blanda (TFEB) on Xiongbi symptom induced by coronary artery ligation in rats.
METHODS
The left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) of male rat was ligated for 3 h after feeding TFEB or 0.5% CMC for 5 d by
OBJECTIVE
As intake of flavonoids has been associated with reduced risk of coronary heart disease but data on the relation with specific classes of flavonoids are scarce, we assessed the relation between dietary intake of specific classes of flavonoids and the risk of acute myocardial infarction
