Here, it was investigated whether rolipram has protective effects on in vitro and in vivo myocardial I/R. Treatment with rolipram on H9c2 cells significantly inhibited cell death during I/R in a concentration-dependent manner. Rolipram also exerted a profound protective effect on apoptosis by decreasing the apoptosis-induced protein Bax and increasing the inhibitory protein Bcl-2 during I/R. Furthermore, rolipram suppressed the caspase-3 activity in cardiomyocytes exposed to I/R. To further investigate the role of rolipram on in vivo myocardial I/R, in vivo myocardial I/R model was established by ligating left anterior descending artery (LAD) for 1 h followed by 1 h of reperfusion. Compared to ischemic control group, administration of rolipram reduced infarct size and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level against myocardial I/R injury model. These findings indicate that rolipram has protective effect against I/R injury in cardiomyocytes. This beneficial effect is partly dependent on decreased Bax, caspase-3 as well as increased Bcl-2.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7613,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Traditional Medicine","volume":"24 4","pages":"1087 - 1092"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142596074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to Persian Medicine, also known as Traditional Iranian Medicine (PM), anxiety disorders are caused by an imbalance in the brain’s temperament. Recent studies have found a strong connection between one's temperament and overall happiness. Our research aims to explore the link between brain temperament and anxiety levels in mothers of premature infants receiving care in NICUs, drawing upon the principles of PM. In this particular study, 105 mothers with premature infants admitted to NICUs were enrolled based on meeting specific inclusion criteria. The assessment utilized both the “State-Trait Anxiety Inventory” and the “Brain Mizaj Temperament Questionnaire.” The results showed that there was a significant difference in the mean scores of state (overt) anxiety (<i>P</i> = 0.009) and trait (hidden) anxiety (<i>P</i> = 0.006) based on the mothers’ brain temperament, and mothers with a hotter brain temperament had higher levels of overt and hidden anxiety.
