Methods： Twenty-two male Chinese mini swines were randomized into 3 groups： sham-operation group （n=6）, control group （n=8）, and garlicin group （n=8）. The distal part of left anterior descending coronary artery （LAD） in swines of the latter two groups was completely occluded by dilated balloon for 2 h and a successful AMI model was confirmed by coronary angiography （CAG） and electrocardiograph （ECG）, which was then reperfused for 3 h. In the sham-operation group, balloon was placed in LAD without dilatation. Garlicin at a dosage of 1.88 mg/kg was injected 10 min before LAD occlusion until reperfusion for 1 h in the garlicin group. To assess serial cardiac function, hemodynamic data were examined by catheter method before AMI, 2 h after occlusion and 1, 2, and 3 h after reperfusion. Myocardial contrast echocardiography （MCE） and double staining with Evans blue and thioflavin-S were performed to evaluate myocardial no-reflow area （NRA） and risk area （RA）. Results： Left ventricular systolic pressure and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure significantly improved in the garlicin group after reperfusion compared with the control group （P〈0.05） and 2 h after AMI （P〈0.05）. MCE showed garlicin decreased reperfusion NRA after AMI compared with the control group （P〈0.05）. In double staining, NRNRA in the garlicin group was 18.78%, significantly lower than that of the control group （49.84%, P〈0.01）. Conclustions： Garlicin has a preventive effect on the porcine model of myocardial infarction reperfusion no-reflow by improving hemodynamics and decreasing NRA.展开更多
