Ursolic-Acid-Enriched Herba Cynomorii Extract Protects against Oxidant Injury in H9c2 Cells and Rat Myocardium by Increasing Mitochondrial ATP Generation Capacity and Enhancing Cellular Glutathione Redox Cycling, Possibly through Mitochondrial Uncoupling

Figure 1

Effect of ethanol extract and different fractions of Herba Cynomorii on ATP-GC in H9c2 cells. Cells were incubated with herbal extracts at the indicated concentrations for 4 h. ATP-GC was measured as described in Section 2. Data were expressed as the percentage of nonpreincubated control values . Values given are means ± SEM, with . and , when compared with the control group without herbal extract preincubation.
