Uses
Magnesium Lithospermate B, is a derivative of caffeic acid tetramer and an inhibitor of Na+/K+ ATPase, which can be extracted from Salviae miltiorrhizae. Magnesium Lithospermate B is widely used for the research of cardiovascular diseases, and it can protect against glucose-induced intracellular oxidative damage. Magnesium Lithospermate B also suppresses neuroinammation and attenuates neurodegeneration[1][2][3].
