[Protective effects of Panax quinquefolium saponin on oxidative damage of cultured rat cardiac cells].
When cultured cardiac cells of rats were exposed to X-XOD containing medium, the absolute values of electronic parameters were decreased the percentage of beating clusters reduced and the microscopic structure destroyed. PQS significantly converted all the indices, which shows that PQS can protect the cells from oxidative damage.
