Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  METHODS: In order to investigate the effects on amnesia in mice, Salvianolic acid A (10-40 mg/kg) was administered orally once daily for five days to a C57BL/6 mouse model of amnesia induced by diazepam. RESULTS: Salvianolic acid A exerts an antiamnesic effect on diazepam-induced paracrine amnesia in mice by enhancing the antioxidant capacity of the hippocampus.

• In Vitro:
  METHODS: Five tumor cell lines, SKOV3, HeLa, NCI-H1975, DU145 and A549, were treated with Salvianolic acid A (1.56-100 µM) for 72 h. Cell viability was measured by CellTiter-Glo kit. RESULTS: The growth of SKOV3, HeLa, NCI-H1975, DU145 and A549 cells was inhibited with increasing concentrations of Salvianolic acid A, with IC50s of 30.84 µM, 15.85 µM, 10.19 µM, 9.512 µM and 6.461 µM, respectively. METHODS: Rat cardiomyocytes H9C2 were treated with Salvianolic acid A (50 µM) and Doxorubicin (4 µM) for 12 h. Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay. RESULTS: The number of apoptotic cells increased significantly after Dox stimulation. H9C2 cells co-treated with Dox and Salvianolic acid A exhibited significantly lower apoptosis rates compared to cells exposed to Dox. Salvianolic acid A inhibited Dox-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells.
