Abstract:
AIM: To observe the effects of toddalia asiatica aqueous extract (Fei Long No 1, F01) on cardiac function and hemodynamics of acute myocardial ischemia in the animal model. METHODS: High positioned double-ligation of the anterior descending left coronary artery induced acute myocardial ischemia in New Zealand rabbits. F01 268 mg/kg were ip into the acute myocardial ischemic model, Cardiac function and hemodynamic measurements were performed before and after ligation and administration of F01. t -test paired was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: After ligation all indices was reduced significantly except that LVEDP was markedly increased and t-dp/dt max had little change. After administration of F01 changes of most indices were reversed, and returned to or were close to the baseline. 1.5 h after administration of F01 action was more markedly. But the indices of left ventricle work and consumption of oxygen ( HR, TTI and TTI?HR) were reducing continuously. CONCLUSION: F01 markedly decreases ventricle work and consumption of oxygen of acute ischemic myocardium, so that the contractility, diastolic function of myocardium and cardial output are improved. These are the mechanism of protective effect on myocardial ischemia.
