Bioactivity | Ilexsaponin A, isolated from the root of Ilex pubescens, attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced myocardial injury through anti-apoptotic pathway. Ilexsaponin A can reduce myocardial infarct size, lower the serum levels of LDH, AST and CK-MB, increase cellular viability and inhibit apoptosis in hypoxia/reoxygenation cardiomyocytes[1]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Ilexsaponin A significantly reduces proapoptotic proteins including caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and bax and increases anti-apoptotic protein bcl-2 in hypoxia/reoxygenation cardiomyocytes. Ilexsaponin A treatment increases the expression levels of p-Akt in hypoxia/reoxygenation cellular model and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion animal model[1]. | ||||||||||||
