The Effect of Ginsenoside RB1, Diazoxide, and 5-Hydroxydecanoate on Hypoxia-Reoxygenation Injury of H9C2 Cardiomyocytes
Figure 4
Protective effect of GS-Rb1 on the level of LDH release is related to the extent of damage to H9c2 cells. The release of LDH from H9c2 cells increased during HR compared with cells under normal conditions (B vs. A ). Pretreatment with GS-Rb1 significantly reduced the release of LDH from H9c2 cells during HR compared with nontreated cells (C vs. B, ), similar to the effect of diazoxide (E vs. B ), and this effect can be partially eliminated by pretreatment with 5-HD (C vs. D ). LDH, lactase dehydrogenase; HR, hypoxia-reoxygenation; GS-Rb1, ginsenoside Rb1; 5-HD, 5-hydroxydecanoate.
