Normal control rats received 1\u2009ml saline, orally for 14 days and 0.1\u2009ml saline, subcutaneously on 13th and 14th treatment day while the toxic group animals were administered with saline orally for 14 days and isoproterenol (85\u2009mg\/kg, subcutaneously) on 13th and 14th day. In different pre-treatment groups, aliskiren (30, 50 &amp; 100\u2009mg\/kg, orally) was administered for 14 days along with isoproterenol (85\u2009mg\/kg, subcutaneously) on the last two days. Per se group animals were given aliskiren (100\u2009mg\/kg orally) for 14 days. Twenty-four hours after the last drug treatment, cardiac marker enzymes (creatine kinase-MB and lactate dehydrogenase), apoptotic marker enzyme (caspase-3) and antioxidative enzymes (malondialdehyde, reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase) were estimated, along with histopathological analysis of myocardium.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results Isoproterenol treatment caused a significant increase in cardiac markers, malondialdehyde, and caspase-3 levels with a considerable decrease in reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase enzyme levels. Aliskiren at 50 and 100\u2009mg\/kg doses significantly alleviated the increase of caspase-3 and cardiac marker enzymes as well as the changes in antioxidant enzymes, which was confirmed by histopathological analysis. Aliskiren (100\u2009mg\/kg) produced more pronounced protective effects than its other two doses. Moreover, the changes in per se group were insignificant as compared to normal control group.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion The present study thus provides an evidence for the protective effects of aliskiren in isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-119068","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,4]],"date-time":"2017-10-04T18:38:37Z","timestamp":1507142317000},"page":"139-145","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Renin Inhibition by Aliskiren Protects Rats Against Isoproterenol Induced Myocardial Infarction"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"68","author":[{"given":"Vasim","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Md.","family":"Hassan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohd.","family":"Akhtar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abul","family":"Najmi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,4]]},"container-title":["Drug Research"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0043-119068.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,28]],"date-time":"2018-02-28T18:38:37Z","timestamp":1519843117000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0043-119068"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,4]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,28]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2018,3]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0043-119068","relation":{},"ISSN":["2194-9379","2194-9387"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2194-9379","type":"print"},{"value":"2194-9387","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,4]]}}}
