osthole/infarction

Previously we demonstrated that Osthole, a natural coumarin, protects against focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury in rats. In the present study, the effects of Osthole on neurobehavioral functions, infarct volume and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in a rat 2h focal cerebral

Osthole, the active constituent of Cnidium monnieri extracts, has been shown to have a diverse range of pharmacological properties. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the cardioprotective effects of osthole in a rat model of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The rats with AMI were treated

Osthole, a main active constituent from Cnidium monnieri (L.) CUSSON, has been considered therapeutic agent in the treatment of ischemic stroke. This study was designed to investigate the effect of osthole on permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in rats. Osthole was administrated by

BACKGROUND Osthole, the main bioactive compounds isolated from the traditional Chinese medical herb broad Cnidium monnieri (L.) cusson, has been shown to exert spectrum of pharmacologic activities. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential neuroprotective effects of osthole against

Osthole, a natural coumarin derivative, has taken considerable attention because of its diverse pharmacological functions. It has been reported to be useful in the treatment of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion and neuronal damage. In the present study, we examined the neuroprotective effect of osthole

Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major cause of acute brain injury. The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying I/R injury involve apoptosis, inflammation and oxidative stress. Osthole-a plant coumarin compound-has been reported to protect against focal cerebral I/R-induced injury in rats.

Stroke is a common cerebrovascular disease in aging populations, and constitutes the second highest principle cause of mortality and the principle cause of permanent disability, and ischemic stroke is the primary form. Osthole is a coumarin derivative extracted from the fruits of Cnidium monnieri
