| Abstract | Choerospondias axillaris (Guangzao) is a medicinal plant used in Mongolia, and its fruit is commonly used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in clinic. The constituents responsible for this effect are always conceded to be the total flavonoids of C. axillaries (TFC). The present study was to evaluate the preventive effect of TFC on acute myocardial infarction induced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in rats and the possible signaling pathway involved. The model of myocardial I/R was caused by occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 2 h. Cardiac dysfunction, infarct size, pathologic histology and apoptosis were examined. Heart tissues were homogenized for biochemistry assays and Western blots analysis. The results indicated that pretreatment with TFC strongly improved cardiac function, obviously reduced heart pathologic lesion in I/R rat hearts. TFC also could protect the heart from I/R injury by increasing the levels of catalase, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase in heart homogenate, and decreasing that of malondialdehyde level. These beneficial effects were associated with the decrease in TUNEL-positive nuclear staining, Bax and caspase-3 levels, and the increase in Bcl-2 expression. Moreover, TFC counteracted the I/R-induced decreased activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Jun N-terminal kinase. These data suggested that TFC improved I/R-induced myocardium impairment via anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic activities, and this beneficial effects were intervened by MAPK signaling pathway. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
