Applications | To investigate the cardioprotective effects of 10-6 mol/L leonurine on neonatal rat cardiomyocytes treated with hypoxia plus serum deprivation, a component of ischaemia, and to determine the mechanisms underlying the protective effects with regard to cardiac anti-oxidant enzymes and apoptosis genes. Cardiomyocytes were treated with leonurine 8 h prior to exposure to hypoxia. In addition, we investigated the effects of 7.5 and 15 mg/kg leonurine, administered to rats i.p. for 7 days prior to left coronary artery ligation, on subsequent infarct size of the ischaemic heart. Leonurine significantly increased the viability of cardiomyocytes injured by hypoxia. In the leonurine-treated group, gene expression levels of pro-apoptotic genes, namely Bax and Fas, were significantly downregulated (by 0.95- and 0.72-fold, respectively; P < 0.001) compared with the hypoxic control group, whereas the expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl was upregulated following leonurine treatment (by 1.03- and 1.07-fold, respectively; P < 0.05). Correspondingly, leonurine treatment increased Bcl-2 protein levels and decreased Bax protein levels. Assays investigating cardiac anti-oxidant enzymes provided further evidence for a protective effect of leonurine, as indicated by the induction of the anti-oxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase. Furthermore, leonurine decreased infarct size in ischaemic rat heart. The results of the present study suggest that the mechanisms of action of leonurine in hypoxic neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and infarcted rat heart may be related to its anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic properties. Leonurine showed a significant inhibited rabbit platelet aggregation induced by thrombin, arachidonic acid, and collagen in vitro with an IC50 of 97.22 μM, 31.03μM, and 44.48μM, respectively. |

After Receiving
The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the product adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.
