Abstract
Cardiomyocyte apoptosis plays a critical role in the progress of heart diseases. Asperosaponin VI (ASA VI), a triterpene saponin isolated from Dipsacus asper Wall, has shown cardioprotective effects in vivo. However, whether ASA VI has a protective effect against cardiomyocyte apoptosis is poorly understood. The present study was aimed to investigate the cardioprotective role of ASA VI and the underlying mechanisms in hypoxia-induced...
