Tanshinone IIA inhibits the apoptosis process of nerve cells by upshifting SIRT1 and FOXO3α protein and regulating anti- oxidative stress molecules and inflammatory factors in Cerebral Infarction Model

Background as a prevalent cerebrovascular disorder, cerebral infarction (CI) has garnered extensive attention globally due to its high incidence and substantial fatality rate. Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) exacerbates not only neuronal demise but also amplifies neural functional impairment. Tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA) has been identified to confer protection against IRI, yet the precise underlying mechanisms remain elusive. This work aimed to delve into the mechanistic role of Tan IIA in CI, with the goal of furnishing more distinct theoretical substantiation for its clinical application.
