Matrine (Mat) and oxymatrine are two major alkaloids of the Chinese herb Sophora flavescens Ait. (Leguminosae). Previous study has demonstrated that Mat reduces brain edema induced by focal cerebral ischemia. More recently, oxymatrine has been reported to produce neuroprotective effects against
Matrine has been found to affect cell viability and function. In the present study, we explored the cardioprotective role of matrine in cardiomyocyte damage under hypoxia/reoxygenation. In vitro, cardiomyocyte hypoxia/reoxygenation was used to mimic ischemia/reperfusion injury in the presence
Background: Ischemic encephalopathy is a common clinical disease. The main treatment goal is to achieve vascular recanalization. However, after vascular recanalization, the reperfusion of fresh blood can change local cell metabolism, thus
Matrine, a monomer of traditional Chinese medicine Sophora flavescens, is a potential drug for treatment of arrhythmia. The aim of the study is to elucidate the protective effects of matrine on arrhythmic rat induced by myocardial infarction (MI) and further explore underlying targets. Experiments
Matrine, an active constituent of the Chinese herb, Sophora flavescens Ait., and it is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities. It has been demonstrated that matrine exerts protective effects against heart failure by decreasing the expression of caspase-3 and Bax, and
This study aimed to investigate whether matrine could prevent atrial fibrillation (AF) after myocardial infarction by reducing left atrial fibrosis, and to determine the underlying mechanisms in isolated cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). Five weeks after MI, matrine-treated rats had lower rates of AF
BACKGROUND
Matrine has been proven to protect ischemic injury in brain and sophoridine (SOP) is an isomeride of matrine. It is unknown whether SOP has this protective effect on ischemic injury in brain. We therefore investigated the potential neuroprotective role of SOP and the underlying
Large amounts of brain nitric oxide are produced over several hours after a stroke. This probably causes DNA strand nicks, nitration of cytosolic components of neurons, and ultimately neuronal death. Oxymatrine and matrine are two major alkaloids of the Chinese herb Sophora flavescens Ait.
