Congestive Heart Failure
4.5 million patients in US
400,000 diagnosed each year
Source: National Institute of Health
:disorder where the heart loses the ability to pump blood efficiently

Hawthorn Crataegus laevigata
Extracts = Botanical medicine
Alleviates symptoms of congestive heart failure
Increases exercise tolerance
Increases blood flow out of the heart
Affects blood pressure
Active ingredients?

Congestive Heart Failure
Causes:Hypertension = high blood pressure
Hypertrophy = thickening of tissue, caused by increased cell size

Project #1: Endothelial Cells
Endothelial Cells
Nitric Oxide (NO)
Relaxes Smooth Muscle
Relaxed muscle disables contraction = dilation
![Page 7: Effects of Hawthorn Crataegus Plant Extracts on Endothelial Cells and Cardiomyocytes By Linda Phan Mentor: Dr. Theresa Filtz.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062714/56649d365503460f94a0edd6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
How does NO relax smooth muscle?
Mechanism of smooth muscle relaxation
NO
Inactivates contraction Dephosphorylated

Does Hawthorn extract affect NO release in endothelial cells?
Quantify NO release using assays
1. Develop assays able to produce consistent results
2. Then observe Hawthorn’s effects

Radiotracer Assay’s Mechanism
Measure 14C-Citrulline product
Correlate with NO production
14C-Arginine 14C-Citrulline
![Page 11: Effects of Hawthorn Crataegus Plant Extracts on Endothelial Cells and Cardiomyocytes By Linda Phan Mentor: Dr. Theresa Filtz.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062714/56649d365503460f94a0edd6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Does the protocol work?

Hypertrophy: thickening of tissue, caused by increased cell size
1.“Create” hypertrophy in cardiomyocytes
• Phenylephrine
2. Hypertrophy?
3. Treat with Hawthorn on cells with hypertrophy, observe. (coming soon)

What’s Next?
Collect more data.
If hypertrophy in cells is successful, treat with Hawthorn.

Dr. Filtz’s Long-Term Goals
Define the active components in Hawthorn with cardiovascular activity.
Fractionation of the extracts to identify active components.
Finally, determine proper dosing and toxic effects.
