Abstract
|
|
|
The inhibitory effects of taegeuk ginseng extract (TGE) on platelet aggregation and thrombus formation were investigated. The TGE significantly inhibited collagen- and adenosine 5¡Ç-diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation in vitro in a dose-dependent manner. Also oral administration of TGE to rats significantly prevented ADP- and collagen-induced platelet aggregation ex vivo, but it did not affect the plasma coagulation system. The oral administration of TGE significantly delayed the occlusion of the carotid artery in ferrous chloride-treated rats in vivo. These results suggest that in vivo antithrombotic effect of TGE may be due to its inhibitory activity on platelet aggregation rather than on plasma coagulation.
