Ischemic brain is particularly susceptible to free radicals mediated secondary neuronal damage, especially mitochondrial dysfunctions. Chinese Herbal Medicine with antioxidant properties is believed to have potential therapeutic effect. Leonurine, an alkaloid present in Herba Leonuri (HL), has shown
The design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel Leonurine-cysteine analog conjugates 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2-amino-3-prop-2-ynylsulfanyl-propionyl)-benzoic acid 4-guanidino-butyl ester (1a), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2-animo-3-allysulfanyl-propionyl)-benzoic acid 4-guanidino-butyl ester (1b) and
The present study was designed to investigate the protective effects of 4-guanidino-n-butyl syringate (leonurine), a compound in Herba Leonuri (HL) on ischemic rat heart to determine the protective mechanisms associated with ischemic rat hearts. Rat heart ischemia was induced by ligation of the left
Leonurine, an alkaloid typically found in Herba leonuri, is known to have both antioxidant and cardioprotective properties. In the present study, we investigated the cardioprotective mechanism of leonurine the in vivo rat model of chronic myocardial ischemia and in vitro H9c2 cardiac myocyte model
1. Previous studies have shown that extracts of Herba leonuri, predominantly containing the phytochemical components leonurine and stachydrine, provide protective effects in the ischaemic myocardium by acting as free radical scavengers and inhibiting the formation of reactive oxygen species. 2. The
Objective: Advanced age is associated with impaired angiogenesis in part because of mitochondrial dysfunction. We have recently reported that leonurine exerts protective effects in neuron via regulation of mitochondrial function. The aim of this study was to explore whether leonurine is able to
In the present study, we examined the ability of a chemically synthesized compound based on the structure of leonurine, a phytochemical component of Herba leonuri, to protect H9c2 rat ventricular cells from apoptosis induced by hypoxia and serum deprivation, as a model of ischemia. The results
Leonurine has been reported to play an important role in ameliorating cognitive dysfunction, inhibiting ischemic stroke, and attenuating perihematomal edema and neuroinflammation in intracerebral hemorrhage. However, the exact mechanism and potential molecular targets of this effect remain unclear.
Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Leonurine (also named SCM-198), a compound extracted from Herba leonuri, was effective on the prevention of various cardiovascular and brain diseases. The purpose of this study was to explore the possible therapeutic potential of SCM-198
BACKGROUND
It has been proved that pre-treatment with leonurine could protect brain tissue against ischemic injury by exerting antioxidant effects and regulating mitochondrial function. Whether this protective effect applies to acute phase after cerebral ischemia, we therefore investigate the
Leonurine possesses cardioprotective effects in myocardial ischemia due to its anti-apoptotic properties. However, the process to isolate and purify leonurine is difficult, because of its low content in the Herb Leonuri and its impurity. Moreover, the high dosage used indicates low potency of
Tianma-Gouteng granule (TGG), a Chinese herbal formula preparation, is clinically used for the treatment of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension, cerebral ischaemia, acute ischaemic stroke and Parkinson's disease. Although few reports have been published concerning the absorbed
