The Anti-inflammatory and Anti-apoptotic Role of Crocin against Expression of MMp-9, TIMP-1, MCP-1, Caspase-3, PPARα in Heart Tissue, and Metamorphoses of MicroRNA 188 in Hyperhomocysteinemic Rats

Crocin (a water-soluble carotenoid) is the most abundant antioxidant among active constituents of Crocus sativus. Crocin has protective effects on brain, skeletal muscle, and kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury models via its antioxidant properties. The protective and anti-inflammatory effect of croc...
