Cardiac stem cells (CSCs)-transplanted therapy provides a promising therapy for the ischemic heart disease (IHD), especially in the epidemic of myocardial infarction (MI). The compound 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-d-glucoside (THSG) can induce CSC proliferation in vitro based on
Cyanidin 3-0-glucoside (CG) is a polyphenol with potential health benefits. In this study, we investigated, for the first time, the cardioprotective effects of CG in an animal model of myocardial infarction (MI), a major cause of death worldwide. Sham and MI rats were administered CG (10 mg kg-1
Cerebral ischemia can cause brain infarcts, which are difficult to recover due to poor angiogenesis. 2,3,5,4'-Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside is a natural polyphenol, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, and can protect from ischemic neuronal injury. However, little is known about
The use of digitalis in patients who have sustained an acute myocardial infarction has been controversial. A number of reports have suggested that the use of the glucoside actually can increase mortality. In all previous reports, digoxin has been the glucoside in use. In 620 patients admitted to
At present it remains uncertain as to whether total glucosides of paeony (TGP) are able to mediate neuroprotection in the context of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (CIR) injury, and if so, what mechanisms underlie such protection. We employed a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion and
Myocardial hypertrophy is often associated with myocardial infarction. Luteolin-7-O-glucoside (LUTG) has the prosperity of preventing cardiomyocyte injury. The current study aimed to explore the potential protective effect of LUTG and its relevant mechanisms in the heart. To establish the cardiac
Cardioprotective potential of anthocyanin rich red cabbage extract (ARCE) was assessed in H2O2 treated rat neonatal cardiomyoblasts (H9c2 cells) and isoproterenol (ISO) induced rodent model of myocardial infarction. H2O2 treated H9c2 cells recorded cytotoxicity (48-50%) and apoptosis (57.3%), the
In the present study, the effects of paeoniflorin (PF), a characteristic monoterpene glucoside isolated from Paeoniae Radix, on cerebral infarction, neurological symptoms, tongue protrusion (TP) and performance in the water maze were examined at the chronic stage (4 weeks) of transient cerebral
Data on the 2,008 patients in the Swedish Co-operative Study from 1969 were compared with 773 consecutive cases with definite myocardial infarction (MI) admitted to the coronary care unit (CCU) of Danderyd Hospital in Stockholm 1984-85. We found a significant decrease in hospital mortality from
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside (TSG) on the expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)/5-HT receptor 2A (5-HT2A), 5-HT transporter (5-HTT), and uncoupling protein 4 (UCP4) after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.
Emodin-8-O-beta-D-glucoside extracted from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc is widely used to treat acute hepatitis possibly by antioxidative mechanisms. The present study was designed to investigate whether emodin-8-O-beta-D-glucoside exerted neuroprotective
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of calycosin‑7‑O‑β‑D‑glucoside (CG) on ischemia‑reperfusion (I/R) injury in vivo. Hemodynamic parameters, including ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening (FS), left ventricular end‑systolic pressure (LVESP) and left
The present study sought to determine the neuroprotective effect of anthocyanin cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (CG), isolated and purified from tart cherries, against permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) in mice and its potential mechanisms of neuroprotection. C57BL/6 mice subjected to pMCAO
Diabetic patients are at an increased risk of developing heart failure when compared to their non-diabetic counter parts. Accumulative evidence suggests chronic hyperglycemia to be central in the development of myocardial infarction in these patients. At present, there are limited therapies aimed at
Total paeony glucosides (TPG) extracted from the roots of Radix Paeoniae Rubrae, have been approved for the therapy of rheumatoid arthritis by the State Food and Drug Administration. We previously demonstrated the myocardial protective effects of TPG in both isoprenaline-induced myocardial ischemia
