schisandrin/infarction

Objective: To investigate whether Schisandrin B (Sch B) could improve cardiac structure and function in myocardial infarction (MI) mice and related mechanisms. Methods: Male C57BL/6J mice were randomized into sham (n=8), MI+ Sch B (n=24, 80 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1) per gavage) or MI+ vehicle (n=24, equal

The fruit of Schisandra chinensis has been used in the traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. Accumulating evidence suggests that Schisandrin B (Sch B) has cardioprotection effect on myocardial ischemia in vitro. However, it is unclear whether Sch B has beneficial effects on continuous

OBJECTIVE Schisandrin B (Sch B) is clinically applied for the treatment of hepatitis and ischemic disease. However, its clinical efficacy is limited due to the poor solubility and low bioavailability. This study aimed to develop matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-sensitive peptide-modified, polyethylene

It has been established that poor outcomes in ischemic stroke patients are associated with the post-reperfusion inflammatory response and up-regulation of TLR4. Therefore, suppression of the TLR4 signaling pathway constitutes a potential neuroprotective therapeutic strategy. Schisandrin B, a

Fruits of Schisandra have been traditionally used in East Asia for the treatment of dyspnea, cough, dysentery, insomnia, tonic-clonic seizures, and amnesia. Schisandrin B, a dibenzocyclooctadiene derivative isolated from Fructus Schisandrae, has been shown to produce antioxidant effect on rodent

The natural medicinal monomer, schisandrin B (Sch B), has been shown to exert cardioprotective effects; however, the underlying mechanisms of these effects remain to be fully elucidated. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate whether Sch B attenuated myocardial

Schisandrin B (Sch B), an active composition isolated from the fruit of Schisandra chinensis, has been proved to possess antiinflammatory, antioxidant and anti-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress effects in many rodent tissues. However, the exact mechanism of cardioprotective effect of Sch B still

Ethnopharmacological relevance: Recently, a new drug combination GRS comprising ginsenoside Rb1 (G-Rb1), ruscogenin (R-Rus) and schisandrin (S-SA) was screened based on ShengMai preparations, which exhibited a prominent cardioprotective

GRS is a drug combination of three active components including ginsenoside Rb1, ruscogenin and schisandrin. It derived from the well-known TCM formula ShengMai preparations, a widely used traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in clinic. The present study explores

OBJECTIVE Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used in clinical practice for thousands of years and has accumulated considerable knowledge concerning the in vivo efficacy of targeting complicated diseases. TCM formulae are a mixture of hundreds of chemical components with multiple potential
