Preventive Effects of Resveratrol against Beta Adrenergic Catecholamine –Induced Acute Myocardial Stress during Experimental Hyperglycemia in in vivo and in vitro Models

Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the cardioprotective effects of resveratrol during hyperglycemic conditions in in vitro and in vivo models. Study Design: H9c2 cardiomyocyte cells were used as in vitro models and adult male Wistar strain albino rats were used as in vivo models. Activities of LDH and levels of lipid peroxides, total reduced glutathione were the end point indicators for the in vitro studies. For the in vivo studies the activities of membrane bound ATPases, levels of lipid peroxides, enzymic and non enzymic
