Title: | Biochemical Studies on the Protective Effect of Taurine on Experimentally Induced Myocardial infarction in Rats |
Authors: | Shiny, K S Dr. Anandan, R |

Abstract: | The present study indicate that prior administration of
taurine is effective in minimizing all the deleterious effects induced by isoproterenol,
thereby justifying its use as a potent cytoprotective agent. The overall cardioprotective
effect of taurine is probably related to its antioxidant property evidenced by its ability to
reduce lipid peroxidation and to maintain the activities of free radical enzymes and nonenzymatic
antioxidants, its membrane stabilizing action and to its hypolipidemic property. |
