Rutin’s multiple mechanisms of action in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases make it a potential therapeutic drug. It works in the following aspects:
1. Antioxidant effect: Rutin has strong antioxidant properties, can scavenge free radicals, and reduce oxidative stress damage to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It can inhibit the oxidation of LDL, protect vascular endothelial cells, and prevent the development of atherosclerosis.
2. Anti-inflammatory effect: Rutin can reduce the expression of inflammatory factors, reduce inflammatory reactions, and has a therapeutic effect on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular inflammatory diseases.
3. Antiplatelet aggregation: Rutin can inhibit platelet aggregation, reduce thrombosis, and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
4. Cardiovascular protection: Rutin helps to improve cardiovascular function, and by regulating the effects and mechanisms of the cardiovascular system, it has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on cardiovascular diseases.
5. Anti-myocardial damage: Rutin can protect myocardial cells, reduce the area of myocardial infarction, and has a protective effect on myocardial damage.
6. Improve microcirculation: Rutin can improve microcirculation, increase vascular elasticity, reduce vascular permeability and fragility, and prevent vascular rupture.
7. Neuroprotective effect: Rutin also has neuroprotective effects, which can improve or prevent cerebrovascular disease, neurodegenerative diseases and other nervous system diseases.
