Antineoplastic agentsAntineoplastic agents: Based on animal and in vitro study, aortic extracts may inhibit the growth of tumors (24). Cigarette smokeCigarette smoke: Based on an animal study, cigarette smoke may reduce the activity of aortic acid (25). Fibrinolytic drugsFibrinolytic drugs: Based on human study, mesoglycan may decrease fibrinogen concentration (22) and regulate fibrinolysis (19; 20; 21). Hormonal agentsHormonal agents: Based on an animal study, female sex hormones may affect aortic acid mucopolysaccharides' effect on atherosclerosis (18). ImmunomodulatorsImmunomodulators: Based on an in vitro study, bovine aorta extract may exert significant dose-dependent inhibition of lymphocyte response (26). Thyroid drugsThyroid drugs: Based on an animal study, thyroid drugs may affect aortic acid mucopolysaccharides' effect on atherosclerosis (28). V1-receptor antagonistsV1-receptor antagonists: Based on a rat study, aortic acid may antagonize arginine vasopression V1 antagonists to blunt the hypotensive effect (9). Aortic acid/Herb/Supplement Interactions:
AnticoagulantsAnticoagulants: Based on human studies, aortic acid may reduce the formation of blood clots (2; 3; 4; 5), and mesoglycan may regulate fibrinolysis (19; 20; 21). AntilipemicsAntilipemics:: Based on human studies, aortic acid may lower total cholesterol and VLDL-triglyceride levels while raising HDL cholesterol and lipoprotein lipase activity (2; 3; 22; 11). AntineoplasticsAntineoplastics: Based on animal and in vitro study, aortic extracts may inhibit the growth of tumors (24). CopperCopper: Based on an animal study, copper deficiency may lead to an increase in aortic acid (29).Estrogenic or progestin herbsEstrogenic or progestin herbs: Based on an animal study, female sex hormones may affect aortic acid mucopolysaccharides' effect on atherosclerosis (18). HypoglycemicsHypoglycemics: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly lower serum glucose (27). HypotensivesHypotensives: Based on a rat study, aortic extract may produce pressor responses that are significantly attenuated by pretreatment with a specific arginine vasopressin V1-receptor antagonist (9). ImmunomodulatorsImmunomodulators: Based on an in vitro study, bovine aorta extract may exert significant dose-dependent inhibition of lymphocyte response (26). Thyroid herbsThyroid herbs: Based on an animal study, thyroid drugs may affect aortic acid mucopolysaccharides' effect on atherosclerosis (28). Vitamin CVitamin C: Based on an animal study, administration of vitamin C during copper deficiency may lead to an increase in aortic acid (29).Aortic acid/Food Interactions:
Insufficient available evidence.Aortic acid/Lab Interactions:
Alkaline phosphataseAlkaline phosphatase: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence alkaline phosphatase (27). CholesterolCholesterol: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence cholesterol (27). However, based on other clinical studies, aortic acid may significantly lower total cholesterol and VLDL-triglyceride levels while raising HDL cholesterol and lipoprotein lipase activity (2; 3; 22; 11). Coagulation panelCoagulation panel: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence coagulation time (27). However, in on other clinical studies, mesoglycan had a more pronounced effect on coagulation (2; 3; 4; 5). CreatinineCreatinine: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence creatinine (27). FibrinogenFibrinogen: Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence fibrinogen (27). However, based on other clinical studies, fibrinogen plasma concentration may significantly decrease (22) or regulate fibrinolysis (19; 20; 21). Glutamic oxalocetic transaminase (GOT)Glutamic oxalocetic transaminase (GOT): Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence glutamic oxalocetic transaminase (27). Glutamic pyruvic transaminaseGPT)Glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT): Based on a clinical trial, mesoglycan may slightly influence glutamic pyruvic transaminase (27).
