Résumé
Objective: To observe the intervening effect of resveratrol on coxsackie virus B3m-induced mycocarditis in Balb/c mice and explore its mechanism. Methods: An animal model of viral mycocarditis induced by coxsackie virus B3m (CVB3m) was used, taking ribavirin as control drug, to examine the changes of general condition, mortality, the weights of heart, liver and spleen, serum MDA and NO levels, and cardiac histology in Balb/c mice. Results: By comparison with ribavirin, it was found that in the mice model of viral mycocarditis induced by coxsackie virus B3m resveratrol significantly improved the changes of general condition, mortality, the weights of heart, liver and spleen, serum MDA and NO levels, and cardiac histology. Conclusion: It suggested that resveratrol might have some chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects in the treatment of viral mycocarditis.
