OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of Xinnao Shutong Capsule, whose main ingredients gross saponins from Tribulus Terrestris L (GSTT) on cardiac muscle cell (CMC) apoptosis and expressions of Bcl-2 Compound rat model of and Bax in murine model of hyperlipemia after myocardial infarction (MI).
METHODS
MI and hyperlipemia was adopted. TUNEL assay was applied to detect CMC apoptosis after 4 weeks' administration of GSTT or simvastatin, and immunohistochemical SP technique was used to detect the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax protein.
RESULTS
GSTT can relieve the damage of CMC and attenuate the ventricular remodeling after MI; high dose of GSTT and simvastatin could decrease CMC apoptosis (P<0.05), and lower Bax protein expression (P < 0.05); and there was no significant difference among the effects in all the treated group (P> 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
GSTT can reduce CMC apoptosis through regulating protein expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax, which may be one of the mechanisms of its anti-ventricular-remodeling effects after MI.
