| Endotoxemic shock is a severe complication characterized by multiple organ failure, hypotension, and impaired tissue perfusion, all contributing to high morbidity and mortality. Recent studies have highlighted the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of tomentosin. This study investigates the protective effects of tomentosin against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac injury and elucidates its underlying mechanisms. Mice were pre-treated with tomentosin before the LPS administration. Subsequently, cardiac injury markers, oxidative stress parameters, inflammatory mediators, and Nrf-2/NF-κB protein expression levels were analysed. The results demonstrated that tomentosin significantly reduced Troponin and CK-MB levels, alleviated oxidative stress, and suppressed inflammatory responses. Furthermore, tomentosin inhibited NF-κB activation while enhancing Nrf-2 expression. In conclusion, our findings suggest that tomentosin exerts cardioprotective effects by modulating the Nrf-2/NF-κB pathway, positioning it as a potential therapeutic candidate for preventing LPS-induced cardiac dysfunction. |
