Xanthohumol ameliorates cardiac injury induced by sepsis in a mice model: role of toll-like receptor 4
Sepsis, a life-threatening condition arising from infection, often results in multi-organ failure, including cardiac dysfunction. This study investigated Xanthohumol, a natural compound, and its potential mechanism of action to enhance heart function following sepsis. A total of twenty-four adult ma...

Summary: | Sepsis, a life-threatening condition arising from infection, often results in multi-organ failure, including cardiac dysfunction. This study investigated Xanthohumol, a natural compound, and its potential mechanism of action to enhance heart function following sepsis. A total of twenty-four adult male Swiss albino mice were allocated randomly to one of four equal groups (n=6): sham, CLP, vehicle Xanthohumol the same amount of DMSO injected IP 10 minutes before the CLP, and Xanthohumol group (0.4 mg/kg of Xanthohumol administered IP before the CLP process). Toll-like receptor 4, pro-inflammatory mediators, anti-inflammatory markers, oxidative stress indicators, apoptosis markers, and serum cardiac damage biomarkers were measured in the cardiac tissue using ELISA. Data with normal distribution were analyzed using t-test and ANOVA tests (p |
