Abstract

We investigated the protective role of thymoquinone (TQ) on isoprenaline caused myocardial infarction via electrocardiographic and biochemical adjustments.Methods: Subcutaneous (S.C.) injections of isoprenaline (85 mg/kg) were used to induce myocardial infarction in rats for two days in a row, separated by 24 hours.Thymoquinone was administered to rats in a single isoprenaline injection in the sixth and seventh days.At the conclusion, at the eighth day, biochemical and electrocardiographic alterations were tracked by experimental and management companies.Results: As warning signs and symptoms of oxidative strain, isoprenaline-intoxicated rats disclosed a significant change in electrocardiograph layout (i.e., ST, QTc, and HR) caused by conduction defects, increased levels of creatine phosphokinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB), prolonged infarction length, and myofibril disarray.Significantly, pretreatment with TQ prevented the metabolic changes and isoprenaline-induced ECG abnormalities.Conclusions: The current data indicates that TQ treatment significantly reduces the myocardial infarction in rats induced via isoprenaline.
