Nontargeted Metabolomic Profiling of Huo-Tan-Chu-Shi Decoction in the Treatment of Coronary Heart Disease with Phlegm-damp Syndrome

Figure 2

Serum biochemical analysis and histomorphology. (a) Serums were collected to evaluate the levels of CK-MB, cTnT, LDH, and oxLDL and are shown as mean ± S.D (n = 5–6). -value<0.01 (Tanshi vs Control), ^##-value<0.01 (HTCSD vs Tanshi), and ^#-value<0.05 (HTCSD vs Tanshi). (b) H&E staining (scale bar = 50 μm) was used to observe the pathological changes of the myocardium of the left ventricle. Abbreviations: CK-MB: creatine phosphokinase-Mb, cTnT: cardiac troponin T LDH: lactic dehydrogenase, oxLDL: oxidized low-density lipoprotein, H&E: hematoxylin and eosin. HTCSD: Huo-Tan-Chu-Shi decoction.
