proanthocyanidin b3/경색증

Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling is a major pathophysiological process during post-myocardial infarction (MI). The activation, differentiation, and proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts to myofibroblasts regulate the expression of ECM proteins. The signaling by bone morphogenetic protein

Intravenous proantocyanidin isolated from Alhagi pseudoalhagi (M. B.) Desv, 5-10 mg/kg, has no effects on the general hemodynamics and cardiac contractility of intact rats and rabbits. The agent given to animals with experimental myocardial infarction reduces serum creatinine phosphate levels and

Proanthocyanidins have been shown to effectively protect ischemic neurons, but its mechanism remains poorly understood. Ginkgo proanthocyanidins (20, 40, 80 mg/kg) were intraperitoneally administered 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours before reperfusion. Results showed that ginkgo proanthocyanidins could

Eight phenolic compounds, including (-)-epicatechin (1) and seven proanthocyanidins (2-8), were obtained from the butanol extract of Parabarium huaitingii (PHB). Their chemical structures were identified based on analyses of mass spectra (MS), NMR, CD spectra, and partial acid catalyzed thiolytic

Grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSP) has been reported to attenuate endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced apoptosis, which is associated with ischemic stroke. However, whether GSP pays crucial roles in ischemic stroke still remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to explore the role of GSP

Reperfusion arrhythmia (RA) is one of the main complications which are also an important cause of sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study was to clarify whether grape seed proanthocyanidins extracts (GSPE) were therapeutic agents against RA. The models of cardiac ischemic reperfusion injury were

There is increasing evidence to indicate cardioprotective effects of red wine consumption. Such cardioprotective properties of wine have been attributed to certain polyphenolic constituents of grapes. The purpose of this investigation was to examine whether proanthocyanidins derived from grape seeds

The study attempts to determine the involvement of oxidative stress in cardiovascular manifestations during Leiurus quinquestriatus quinquestriatus (LQQ) scorpion envenomation and to examine the possible protective role of red grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSP) against such effects. Lethality

Free radicals and oxidative stress play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of a broad spectrum of cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure, valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathy, hypertrophy, atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. We have demonstrated that IH636 grape seed

Free radicals have been implicated in over a hundred disease conditions in humans, including arthritis, hemorrhagic shock, atherosclerosis, advancing age, ischemia and reperfusion injury of many organs, Alzheimer and Parkinson's disease, gastrointestinal dysfunctions, tumor promotion and

Neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by Ginkgo biloba leaves are commonly attributed to the antioxidant activity of its proanthocyanidins. Furthermore, preliminary experiments identified 6-hydroxykynurenic acid (6-HKA) as a major contributor to this

Grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE), an active component extracted from the grape, has been reported to demonstrate antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antiapoptosis effects. However, little is known about the role of GSPE on neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. The aim of

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) is a vegetable rich in antioxidants, such as lycopene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. Their presence is responsible for the characteristic ability of this product to inhibit the formation of reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen. The grapes and wines derived

BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that proanthocyanidins have cardioprotective effects which are mediated via the release of nitric oxide (NO) ultimately resulting in increasing the antioxidant activity. We have investigated to show whether 1) the total extract and ethyl acetate fraction (Et)

Both epidemiological and experimental studies indicate that mild-to-moderate alcohol consumption is associated with a reduced incidence of mortality and morbidity from coronary heart disease. The consumption of wine, particularly red wine, imparts a greater benefit in the prevention of coronary
