Özet
Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the most prevalent and primary cause of death globally, and the most deadly and dangerous of these diseases is myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as heart attack, which develops due to insufficient coronary artery flow and causes irreversible myocardial cell damage. This study aimed to investigate the cardioprotective effects of Momordica charantia (MC), known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, in an experimental acute MI model induced by isoprenaline (ISO) in rats. Methods: In the study, forty-nine male Wistar rats were split up into 7 groups as control (CONT), Glycerin (GLCN), isoprenaline (ISO), 500 mg/kg MC (MC500), isoprenaline+100 mg/kg MC (ISO+MC100), isoprenaline+250 mg/kg MC (ISO+MC250), isoprenaline+500 mg/kg MC (ISO+MC500). Substances were administered to the groups for 30 days. Isoprenaline (85 mg/kg) was administered by subcutaneous injection on the last two days of the study (days of the 29 and 30). Electrocardiogram (ECG) recording and collecting blood samples of the animals were performed 24 hours after the last administration of the substances under the anesthesia. Serum IL-6, Nrf2, IL-10, HO-1, TNF-?, CK-MB, cTn-I and CRP levels were determined by the ELISA method. Results: Compared to the ISO group, levels of CK-MB, HO-1, TNF-?, CRP, IL-6 and cTn-I were found statistically lower in MC-administered groups (p<0.05). In addition, MC restored ISO-induced abnormal ECG changes to normal levels. Conclusion: In conclusion, ECG findings, proinflammatory, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and cardiac biomarkers suggest that MC may have cardioprotective properties. © 2024
