Research Abstract |
San'oshashinto is one of the herbal medicines used for climacteric disorder. In ovariectomized female rats as a model of menopausal women, San'oshashinto reduces increased total cholesterol level and postprandial hyperglycemia, and so prevents the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Furthermore, San'oshashinto improves cardiac ischemia reperfusion injury that is the myocardial damage caused when blood supply returns to the tissue after a period of ischemia. (Cardiac ischemia reperfusion injury may develop as the result of the onset of MetS.) Emodin, one of the ingredients of San'oshashinto, participates in these beneficial effects. Especially, emodin's estrogen-like effect is involved in the card ioprotective effects on ischemia reperfusion injury.
