Here, we further examined the combined effects of SM and DO on rat myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. The possible mechanism of SM and DO also were elucidated. Methods DO was divided into aqueous extract of lignum dalbergiae odoriferae (DOW) and lignum dalbergiae odoriferae oil (DOO). Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to seven groups: sham group, model group, treatment groups inclu- ding SM (10 g · kg^-1), DOW (5 g · kg^-1), DOO (0.5 ml · kg^-1), SM + DOW (10 g · kg^-1 + 5 g · kg^-1), SM + DOO ( 10 g · kg^-1 + 0. 5 ml · kg^-1). Rats were pretreated with homologous drug for 7 days and then subjec- ted to 30 rain of ischemia followed by 180 rain of reperfusion. Electrocardiogram (ECG) and heart rate were moni- tored and recorded continuously. At the end of reperfusion, blood samples were collected to determine the serum levels of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Hearts were harvested to assess heart- body rate, infarct size and histopathological changes as well. Maximum and minimum effective points were deter- mined by measuring indicators associate with myocardial injury at different time-points of reperfusion (Smin, 15min, 30min, 45rain, 60min, 120min, 180min). The potential therapeutic mechanism of SM and SM + DOO were carried out by detecting superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Results The results showed SM and DO can ameliorate cardiac function respectively, and this cardioprotective effect was further strengthened by their combinations. Among all the combi- nations, SM + DOO showed predominant potential to improve ECG and heart rate, reduce heart-body rate (28.5% + 1.4% , P 〈 0.01 vs model) and myocardial infarct size ( 20.96% + 1.61% , P 〈 0.01 vs model, P 〈 0.05 vs SM) , attenuate histopathological damage, decrease the levels of CK-MB and LDH (P 〈 0.01 vs model, P 〈 0.05 vs SM). The maximum effective points of SM and SM + DOO were 15min and 30rain respectively, and the minimum effective points of them were 180rain. In reducing serum level of MDA, TNF-alpha, IL-6 and increasing SOD activ- ity, SM + DOO was similar to SM. Conclusion The results of this study indicated that SM + DOO have combined effects that are highly effective than single pretreatment against myocardial ischemie reperfusion injury in rats. The possible mechanism of SM and DO were likely through its anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and thus may be an effective and promising medicine for both prophylaxis and treatment of ischemic heart disease.展开更多
