Abstract Title:
Paeoniflorin on Rat Myocardial Ischemia Reperfusion Injury of Protection and Mechanism Research.
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To study the myocardial benefit effect and mechanism of paeoniflorin on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) in rats.METHODS: Hundred SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham group, model group, Paeoniflorin (15 mg/kg) group, Paeoniflorin (30 mg/kg) group, and Paeoniflorin (60 mg/kg) group. Myocardial ischemia reperfusion model was established in each group except the sham group. The myocardial infarction and morphological changes were measured by the TTC staining and HE staining respectively. Myocardial caspase-3 was detected by immunohistochemistry. In addition, the protein levels of Bcl-2 and Bax and the expression ratio of p-erk, p-jnk, and p-p38 were detected by Western blot. Myocardial superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) level were measured by the assay kit.RESULTS: Paeoniflorin (30 mg/kg) and Paeoniflorin (60 mg/kg) can obviously alleviate myocardial infarction caused by MIRI (p
