procyanidin a 2/infarction

OBJECTIVE Diabetes with cerebral infarction is a common disease that severely impacts health. This study investigated the effect of procyanidin (PC) on the expression of signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT1) in type 2 diabetes mellitus SD rats with focal cerebral ischemia. We

Since the early 1970s, increasing evidence has suggested that the consumption of moderate amounts of alcohol is inversely correlated with mortality from myocardial infarction. There is also some evidence that the protective effects of wine might be more pronounced than those of other alcoholic

Objective Oxidative stress (OS) plays a crucial role in ischemic stroke. Grape seed procyanidin extract (GSPE) was reported to be a critical regulator of OS. We hypothesized that GSPE might also be protective in ischemia-reperfusion brain injury. This study aimed to explore whether GSPE

Background: Ischemic stroke is a serious cardiovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality rates that affects millions of people worldwide.Currently, the only therapy with proven efficacy for acute ischemic stroke is alteplase,

METHODS Disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major pathogenic mechanism of neurological dysfunction and death after ischemic stroke. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of procyanidin B2 (PB), a bioactive food compound, on BBB disruption induced by ischemic stroke and

OBJECTIVE Platelet aggregation is involved in atherosclerosis and pharmacological inhibition of platelet activity may reduce the risk of coronary thrombosis and myocardial infarction. Red wine polyphenols may reduce platelet aggregability. This study evaluates the effect of de-alcoholated red wine
