Notes: Vanillic acid is a phenol that has been found in A. sinensis and has diverse biological activities.{72130,72131,72132,72133} It inhibits biofilm formation by carbapenem-resistant E. hormaechei (CREH; MIC = 0.8 mg/ml).{72130} Vanillic acid (12 µg/ml) inhibits cell death induced by the antitumor agent doxorubicin (Item No. 15007) in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes.{72131} In vivo, vanillic acid (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg per day) reduces cardiac levels of lactate dehydrogenase, cardiac troponin-1, and malondialdehyde (MDA) in a rat model of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. It reduces hyperglycemia and renal levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), TNF-α, and NF-κB, as well as attenuates impaired renal function in a rat model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin (STZ; Item No. 13104) and nicotinamide (Item No. 11127).{72132} Vanillic acid (25 and 50 mg/kg) also reduces bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) inflammatory cell infiltration and airway inflammation in a rat model of ovalbumin-induced asthma.{72133}
