Myocardial infarction (MI) continues to be an important issue in healthcare systems worldwide, leading to high rates of morbidity and mortality. Despite ongoing efforts towards the development of preventive measures and treatments, addressing the challenges posed by MI remains difficult both in developed and developing countries. However, researchers recently investigated the potential cardioprotective effects of taraxerol utilizing an isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiotoxicity model among Sprague Dawley rats. Specifically, subcutaneous tissue injections consisting of 5.25 mg/kg or 8.5 mg/kg ISO were administered over two consecutive days as stimuli to induce cardiac injury. To investigate the possibility of preventing damage caused by ISO-induced cardiotoxicity by taraxerol treatment, five groups were formed: a normal control group (1% Tween 80), an ISO control group, an amlodipine group administered 5 mg/kg/day, and various doses of taraxerol. The study results showed that treatment significantly reduced cardiac marker enzymes. Additionally, pretreatment with taraxerol increased myocardial activity in SOD and GPx, leading to significant reductions in serum CK-MB levels along with MDA, TNF-α, and IL-6. Further histopathological analysis supported these observations, as treated animals had less cellular infiltration compared to untreated ones. These multifaceted findings suggest that oral administration of taraxerol could potentially protect hearts from ISO-caused damage by increasing endogenous antioxidant concentrations while decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines.
