baicalein/infarction

Baicalein, a flavonoid purified from the root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, is well known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. The present study aimed to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of baicalein in a rat model of acute myocardial infarction and investigate the

The present study assessed whether baicalein (5,6,7-trihydroxyflavone), a polyphenolic antioxidant 12/15-lipoxygenase inhibitor would attenuate oxidative cell death in vitro using a mouse hippocampal HT22 cell assay. Moreover, we determined if baicalein would be useful to attenuate behavioral

Baicalein is a component of the root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, which has traditionally been used to treat liver disease in China. In the present study, we investigated baicalein' ability to reduce the liver injury induced by myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R). Myocardial I/R was

Baicalein is a kind of flavonoids. Long term use of flavonoids can reduce blood pressure by releasing physiological NO to keep the vascular endothelial function of hypertensive animals and reduce myocardial ischemia injury. The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of baicalein on

12/15-Lipoxygenase (LOX) is a member of the LOX family that catalyzes the step from arachidonic acid to hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs). Previous studies demonstrated that 12/15-LOX plays a critical role in the development of atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart failure, and other diseases;

Acute kidney injury is a common and severe complication of acute myocardial infarction and cardiac surgery. It results in increased mortality, morbidity, and duration of hospitalization. Baicalein is a component of the root of Scutellaria baicalensis, which has traditionally been used to treat

It is reported that baicalein can activate PI3K/AKT pathway, inhibit caspase activation and reduce cerebral infarct volume in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats. However, a caspase-independent mechanism initiated by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) activation has been reported to

OBJECTIVE The natural product baicalein is a specific inhibitor of 12/15-lipoxygenase, but it also has antioxidant properties. The current study was designed to test if the neuroprotective properties of baicalein are related to its lipoxygenase inhibition. METHODS The presence of 12/15-lipoxygenase

Inflammatory damage and oxidative stress play an important role in cerebral ischemic pathogenesis and may represent a target for treatment. Baicalein, isolated from the traditional Chinese herbal medicine Huangqin, is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent on one hand and a lipoxygenase

Recently more evidences support baicalein (Bai) is neuroprotective in models of ischemic stroke. This study was conducted to determine the molecular mechanisms involved in this effect. Either permanent or transient (2 h) middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was induced in rats in this study.

Baicalein, a flavonoid derived from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, is known to protect neural tissue from damage. Several studies have found that baicalein reduces brain infarction following focal brain ischaemia. However, there are few reports on the protective effects of baicalein following

Baicalein is one of the main active ingredients of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. Baicalein has many good biological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-apoptosis. The protective effect of baicalein on myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury was studied. The results

Baicalin belongs to glucuronic acid glycosides and after hydrolysis baicalein and glucuronic acid come into being. It has such effects as clearing heat and removing toxicity, anti-inflammation, choleresis, bringing high blood pressure down, diuresis, anti-allergic reaction and so on. In this study,

ischaemic stroke accounts for almost 11% of all deaths worldwide and has a high incidence of permanent disability among patients. Baicalein has many beneficial pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects. However, the neuroprotective effect of baicalein is still

Ischemic stroke is a cerebrovascular disease with high morbidity, high mortality, and high disability, representing a serious threat to human life and health. Clinically, the extensive injury caused by ischemic stroke results from ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury thrombolytic treatment. However,
