[8]‐Gingerol exerts anti‐myocardial ischemic effects in rats via modulation of the MAPK signaling pathway and L‐type Ca2+ channels
Abstract Myocardial ischemia (MI) remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Therefore, it is urgent to seek the treatment to protect the heart. [8]‐Gingerol (8‐Gin), one of the most active ingredients in ginger, has antioxidant, cardiotonic, and cardiovascular protective properties. The pres...
