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 5
Time course of HCY2/UA-induced changes in cellular GSH level in H9c2 cells. HCY2 or UA was added at the indicated concentrations. Reduced glutathione (GSH) levels were measured as described in Section 2. Data are expressed as the percentage of non drug incubated parallel control values (initial control GSH level (a) = 30.6 ± 2.87 nmol/mg protein, (b) = 27.1 ± 1.90 nmol/mg protein) at various periods of herbal extract or drug incubation. Values given are means ± SEM, with .
