    Aegeline, an alkaloidal amide from Aegle marmelos, shows potential cardioprotective effects against isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarction.

  • 2

    In experimental models, aegeline reduced myocardial damage and improved oxidative stress and inflammatory markers without affecting liver or kidney function.

  • 3

    Molecular docking studies indicated strong binding affinity of aegeline to CK-MB, with favorable interactions also noted with LDH, cTnT, and cTnI.

  • 4

    The study utilized isoproterenol to induce myocardial injury in rats, mimicking mechanisms of human myocardial infarction.

  • 5

    Aegeline's cardioprotective activity is supported by biochemical, histopathological, and computational analyses demonstrating its effects on myocardial injury.
