The aim of the study was to determine the effects of Asperosaponin VI (ASA VI), a triterpene saponin isolated from Dipsacus asper Wall, on chronic myocardial infarction (MI) and possible mechanisms in rats. MI was induced by permanent ligation of the left coronary artery. Twenty-four hours after MI,
Asperosaponin VI is a saponin of the medicinal herb Dipsacus asper (Xuduan), and no pharmacological activity has been reported yet. In this study, we investigated the anti-myocardial ischemia effects of Asperosaponin VI (ASA VI) both in vivo and in vitro. An animal model of myocardial ischemia(MI)
BACKGROUND
Asperosaponin X was isolated from the roots of Dipsacus asper. In this study, we investigated the anti-myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury effects of Asperosaponin X in vivo and elucidated the potential mechanism in vitro.
RESULTS
Asperosaponin X significantly attenuated
