[Collagen protein expressions in ischemic myocardium of rats with acute myocardial infarction and effects of qi-tonifying, yin-tonifying and blood-activating herbs and detoxifying and blood-activating herbs.]
Conclusion: Both qi-tonifying, yin-tonifying and blood-activating herbs and detoxifying and blood-activating herbs have beneficial effects on rats with AMI in decreasing LVMI and procollagen type III content, and inhibiting expressions of collagen types I and III in ischemic myocardium, thus protecting ischemic myocardium after AMI. It may explain the machanism of Chinese herbal medicine inhibiting ventricular remodeling after AMI.
