Abstract

A hot-water extract of Capsella bursa-pastoris (CBW), containing flavonoids such as luteolin-7-O-glucoside and isoorientin, protected H9c2 cardiomyocytes and mouse hearts from doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by increasing superoxide dismutase, reducing reactive oxygen species and recovering cardiac electrophysiology, without protecting breast cancer cells, suggesting potential as an adjunct that mitigates chemotherapy cardiotoxicity.
