Description: Danshensu sodium is a salvianolic acid that reduces expression of the autophagy-associated proteins p62, LC3-II, and Beclin-1 and the apoptosis-related proteins Bax and caspase-3, prevents cardiomyocyte damage. It increases heart rate, coronary flow (CF), and left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP). Danshensu reduces infarct size and improves left ventricular function in a rat model of myocardial infarction. It enhances radiation-induced tumor cell death in a Lewis lung carcinoma mouse xenograft model. Danshensu also decreases infarct volume, neuronal apoptosis, production of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in a rat model of cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury.

Product Data:
Biological target: Danshensu (sodium salt) is sodium salt of danshensu from the widely used Chinese herb Danshen that can inhibit phenylephrine- and CaCl2-induced vasoconstriction in Ca2+-free medium
In vitro activity: The present study aimed at deciphering the effects of a bioactive phytochemical, sodium danshensu, on human oral cancer cell metastasis. he treatment of FaDu and Ca9-22 cells with different doses of sodium danshensu (25, 50, and 100 μM) caused a significant reduction in cellular motility, migration, and invasion, as compared to the untreated cells. This effect was associated with a reduced expression of MMP-2, vimentin and N-cadherin, together with an enhanced expression of E-cadherin and ZO-1. Further investigation on the molecular mechanism revealed that treatment with sodium danshensu caused significant reduction in p38 phosphorylation; however, phosphorylation of ERK1/2 significantly decreased only in FaDu cells, whereas p-JNK1/2 did not show any alteration. Collectively, the present study findings reveal that sodium danshensu execute anti-metastatic effect by suppressing p38 phosphorylation in human oral cancer Reference: Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2020 Sep 30;11:568436. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33101201/
In vivo activity: In ischemic stroke mice, SDS ( sodium danshensu ) (700 mg/kg, i.p.) was injected 10 min after the onset of the ischemic insult. In the focal ischemic stroke model of the mouse, sham control and stroke animals received vehicle or SDS treatment (700 mg/kg, i.p., 10 min after ischemia and once daily) for 14 days. At 14 days after stroke and SDS or vehicle treatment, Western blot analysis showed that the SDS treatment enhanced the expression of VEGF, BDNF, SDF-1, and eNOS in the perfi-infarct region compared with vehicle controls (Fig. 1A to E). At 28 days after stroke, SDS treatment significantly increased the number of NeuN and BrdU co-labeled cells in the peri-infarct region compared with stroke vehicle controls (Figs. 3C and 3D). These results indicated that the SDS treatment promoted neurogenesis in the post-stroke brain.
