Effects of ginsenosides on myocardial reperfusion arrhythmia and lipid superoxidation in high cholesterol diet rats.

To explore the effects of GSL on myocardial reperfusion arrhythmia and lipid superoxidation in high cholesterol diet rats. Hyperlipidemia model was set up with administered high cholesterol emulsion 15 ml/kg to rats orally for 14 days. In GSL group, rats were given GSL i.p. 75 mg/kg simultaneously when administered high cholesterol emulsion. The experiment of myocardial ischemia reperfusion was performed on all rats. The results showed: (1) After administration of high cholesterol emulsion to rats orally for 14 days, hyperlipidemia model was set up successfully, simultaneously treatment with GSL. It lowered serum lipid; (2) In hyperlipidemia state, serum MDA increased (p < 0.01, SOD and NO decreased markedly (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05 respectively) after 2 h of myocardial reperfusion; the rate of reperfusion arrhythmia (RPAr) increased within 10 min of reperfusion, four out of nine rats died of ventricular fibrillation (VF); and (3) GSL decreased MDA, increased SOD and NO after 2 h of myocardial reperfusion. All changes were significant (p < 0.01); the rate of RPAr decreased, no VF occurred and all rats survived. Hyperlipidemia aggravated myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury and increased the incidence of RPAr. The results suggested that GSL reduced myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury and RPAr in high cholesterol diet state through antiperoxidating and inducing the production of NO.
