It has been used for centuries in the Ayurvedic and Unani systems of medicine for the treatment of various ailments. We have evaluated the effect of N. jatamansi (rhizomes) on the biochemical changes, tissue peroxidative damage and abnormal antioxidant levels in doxorubicin (adriamycin)-induced cardiac damage. Preliminary studies on the effect of the graded dose of extract showed that 500 mg kg\u22121 orally for seven days was found to be optimum and hence all further study was carried out with this particular dose. Rats administered doxorubicin (15 mg kg\u22121, i.p.) showed myocardial damage that was manifested by the elevation of serum marker enzymes (lactate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, aspartate aminotransaminase and alanine aminotransaminase). The animals showed significant changes in the antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione-S-transferase) and lipid peroxidation levels. Pretreatment with N. jatamansi extract significantly prevented these alterations and restored the enzyme activity and lipid peroxides to near normal levels. Restoration of cellular normality accredits the N. jatamansi with a cytoprotective role in doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1211\/jpp.58.2.0014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,19]],"date-time":"2006-01-19T21:15:51Z","timestamp":1137705351000},"page":"257-262","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["Protective effect of <i>Nardostachys jatamansi<\/i> on oxidative injury and cellular abnormalities during doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage in rats"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Rajakannu","family":"Subashini","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, University of Madras , Guindy Campus, Chennai 600 025, Tamil Nadu,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Surinderkumar","family":"Yogeeta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, University of Madras , Guindy Campus, Chennai 600 025, Tamil Nadu,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arunachalam","family":"Gnanapragasam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, University of Madras , Guindy Campus, Chennai 600 025, Tamil Nadu,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thiruvengadam","family":"Devaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry, University of Madras , Guindy Campus, Chennai 600 025, Tamil Nadu,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024103109333141800_cit1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"359","DOI":"10.1016\/S0378-8741(99)00153-1","article-title":"Nardostachys jatamansi protects against liver damage induced by thioacetamide in rats","volume":"71","author":"Ali","year":"2000","journal-title":"J.
