[1] ISOPROTERENOL-INDUCED CARDIOMYOPATHY IN RATS: INFLUENCE OF ACORUS CALAMUS LINN.

Part Used : เหง้า
Activity : DRUG INTERACTION
Solvent/Active Compound : 70% ethanol
Type of experiment : in vivo
Type of animal : rat
Type of study : -
N(Total) : -
N(Treatment) : -
Sex : -
Age : -
Route : Oral administration
Dose/Conc.(herb) : 100 mg/kg
Duration : -
Type of interaction : Pharmacokinetics
Interaction with drug : Isoproterenol*/Isoprenaline
Dose/Conc.(drug) : 5 mg/kg, i.p.
Result : Positive
Remark : Treatment with A. calamus 100 and 200 mg/kg, and amlodipine demonstrated marked improvement in isoproterenol-induced changes in myocardial architectures. It's protecting effects due to attenuating calcineurin activity, decreased level of NO, LDH, TBARS and increased antioxidant enzyme i.e. SOD, GPx, CAT and GST. However, treatment with A. calamus or amlodipine alone did not alter these parameters. Thus, the result shows that A. calamus attenuates isoproterenol-induced cardiomyopathy.

Part Used : เหง้า
Activity : DRUG INTERACTION
Solvent/Active Compound : Hydroalcoholic extract of Acorus calamus (HAE-AC)
Type of experiment : in vivo
Type of animal : rat
Type of study : -
N(Total) : -
N(Treatment) : -
Sex : -
Age : -
Route : Oral administration
Dose/Conc.(herb) : HAE-AC 100 mg/kg
Duration : 14 consecutive days.
Type of interaction : Pharmacodynamics
Interaction with drug : Vincristine*/VCR/LCR/Leurocristine
Dose/Conc.(drug) : 50 microgram/kg, i.p. for 10 consecutive days
Result : Positive
Remark : Result: Effect of AC on vincristine-induced hot plate test Vincristine administration produced a significant decrease in the nociceptive threshold for thermal conduction heat hyperalgesia. Pre-treatment with hydroalcoholic extract of AC (100 and 200 mg/kg p.o.) attenuated the vincristine-induced decrease in the nociceptive threshold for thermal conduction heat hyperalgesia in a dose dependent manner. Moreover, AC did not show any significant effect on the above-mentioned behavior.

Remark : Result: Vincristine administration produced a significant decrease in the nociceptive threshold for radiant heat hyperalgesia. Pre-treatment with hydroalcoholic extract of AC (100 and 200 mg/kg p.o.) attenuated the vincristine induced decrease in the nociceptive threshold for radiant heat hyperalgesia in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, AC per se did not show any significant effect on the above-mentioned behaviour.
