Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the foremost reason
for early death and associated disease complications; their
prevalence is rising worldwide. As a result, CVDs are a
measure of economic and health burden on the country. As
per European statistics, the death rate is 45% of the population. Many allopathic drugs used to treat CVDs have side
effects or adverse effects, and they are responsible for
approximately 8% of hospital admissions in the
USA. Thus, numerous therapeutic plants have typically
been investigated for their potential impact on CVDs. It is
commonly observed that herbal extracts are reached with
many secondary plant metabolites and provide signicant
advantages for treating cardiovascular complications due
to their safety proles. The present chapter was undertaken to give an insight into the cardioprotective potential
of various medicinal plants such as Embilica ofcinalis,
Rauwola serpentina, Terminalia arjuna, Ziziphus oxyphylla, and so on. Many phytomolecules like taxifolin,
caffeic acid, quercetin, rosmarinic acid, arjunolic acid,
andrographolide, and others have therapeutic potential
against CVDs. This chapter provides information about
cardiovascular diseases and gives importance to medicinal
plants in their management and specic mode of action.

The annual enumeration of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs)
is approximately 17 million, around 31% of mortality worldwide. As a result, CVDs are a measure of economic and
health burden. The present statistics of the American Heart
Association revealed that, nearly 50% of the population
nearby agonized from CVDs. As per European statistics, the
death rate is 45% of the population. In India, heart disease
begins 10–15 years earlier than in the West. Heart illness
accounts for one-fth of fatalities. The Government of India
decided to reduce hypertension prevalence (high blood pressure) by 25% relative to 2025. Almost 220 million people in
India suffer from hypertension. Thus, the Indian Government
established the Indian Hypertension Control Initiative (IHCI)
to expedite access to treatment options [1]. Heart attacks and

strokes are typically due to several risk factors, including
cigarette use, an unhealthy diet and obesity, indolence and
alcohol abuse, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia
[2]. Synthetic drugs used to treat CVDs have side effects or
adverse effects, and they are responsible for approximately
8% of hospital admissions in the USA.Associated toxicity
issues with these drugs cause 100,000 deaths of people per
year.
Consequently, the trend has increased; people move
towards phytomedicine yearly because they believe it has
minimal side effects [3]. Numerous therapeutic plants
have typically been investigated for their potential impact
on CVDs. Medicinal plants provide signicant advantages
for treating cardiovascular complications due to their
safety proles. In Asian medicine, it has been used for at
least 3000 years [4]. This chapter overviews medicinal
plant-based remedies, particularly for preventing and treating CVDs. Also, evidence on the anti-CVD effects and ethnopharmacological therapeutic potentials of several plants,
including Embilica ofcinalis, Rauwola serpentina,
Terminalia arjuna, Ziziphus oxyphylla, and other plants,
are picked and reviewed. It has been investigated how
these plants are used mainly concerning CVDs like myocardial infarction, hypertension, peripheral vascular dis-
eases, coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and
dyslipidaemias [5].
2 Cardiovascular Diseases andTheir
Pathophysiology
2.1 Hypertension
It is a condition of health in which blood pressure is consistently exerted on the wall of the arteries and is characterized by systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) of more
than 140 and 90 mmHg, respectively [6]. As per its type,
primary hypertension has an unknown cause of BP elevation, but secondary hypertension is reported with some
exact reasons like congenital narrowing of the aorta, cirrhosis of the liver, renal diseases, endocrine disorders, alcohol intake, obesity, medication (contraceptive pills,
NSAIDs, cocaine, etc.), neurological disorders (head injury
and brain tumours), and thyrotoxicosis. Normal physiological parameters such as cardiac output, degree of sodium,
water retention in the kidney, and contraction of arteries
and arterioles are signicant determinants of total peripheral resistance [7] (Fig.1).

2.2 Ischaemic Heart Disease
Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) is a type of cardiac disability
coming from the imbalance between the myocardial fullment and the requirement of O2 carrying blood in the body.
The narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries is the
initial cause of myocardial anoxia. IHD caused due to some
events such as coronary artery disease (CAD) and vasospasm, which resist the blood ow in the myocardium. It is
also termed ‘atherosclerosis’. Later, it produces inammation, which initiates proteolytic enzyme, making atherosclerotic cap rupture and tissue infarct. These all combined
trigger/affect coronary microcirculation in the coronary
artery [6].
2.3 Atherosclerosis
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) accumulates in arteries leading to atherosclerosis, a lipid-driven disease that affects
peripheral arteries (arterial elasticity) and causes coronary
heart disease and strokes. Lipids start building up in the subendothelial area (intima) during the early stages of atherosclerosis because of the interplay between apolipoprotein,
which is positive in charge, proteoglycan side chain with a
negative charge, and extracellular matrix molecule made by
smooth muscle cells (SMC) [8]. The macrophages, often
known as ‘foam cells’, are lipid-lled arterial macrophages
that eventually die and collect in the endothelium lining
(intima). Along with other substances, the lining also contains smooth muscle cells, calcium and other mineral salts,
and debris from different types of cells. Consequently, atheromas or atherosclerotic plaques are formed from the small
initial lesions that become larger and thicker. These plaques
make the vessel channel smaller and obstruct blood ow. In
the aorta and major aortic branches, atherosclerotic lesions
are frequently observed. The disorder is also known as coronary heart disease, coronary artery disease, or ischemic heart
disease. When one or more coronary arteries are blocked, a
section of the heart muscle will undergo apoptosis, known as
a myocardial infarction or heart attack. Blood clots and
stroke formation could be mediated by atherosclerotic
lesions of the cerebral arteries [9] (Fig.2).
angina because workload or demand and ischemia are predictable. Compared to unstable angina it is a magnied one
with increasing frequency or intensity of episodes. The frequency and severity of plaque-related arterial constriction
are not entirely consistent; it changes with a typical person’s
variances in arterial tone. The arterial tone is high in the
morning; many people suffer from angina at the start of the
day. During angina, the left ventricular (LV) diastolic pressure usually goes up; sometimes, pulmonary obstruction and
breathing problems can also cause it. Although the precise
process of ischemia induces discomfort is unknown, hypoxia
metabolic products may stimulate the nerve cells [11].
2.5 Arrhythmia
A cardiac arrhythmia is a physiologically unjustied variation in the average heart and/or cardiac rhythm rate. Rhythm
disturbances are mainly due to abnormality in generating
impulses, signal conduction, or both. Bradyarrhythmias are
caused by impaired intrinsic pacemaker function or conduction blockages, primarily in the node that produces impulse
(AV node) or the His–Purkinje system. Abnormal mechanisms of automaticity and re-entry are reasons for most
tachyarrhythmias [12].
2.6 Myocardial Infarction
Myocardial infarction (MI) frequently occurs when coronary
atherosclerosis is built with a luminal thrombus [13]. It gives
several combinations of inammation and endothelial
defects. In about 10% of cases, myocardial infarction may
occur without detecting coronary artery obstruction. The
prognosis and management in such cases differ from coronary artery occlusion [14]. In rare cases, MI is shown without any coronary artery blockage. Compared to coronary
artery occlusion, the management and prospects in such conditions differ. MI is due to several factors like increasing
cholesterol level (LDL), inammation, excessive intake of
alcohol, smoking during the hypertensive condition, and the
presence of diseases like diabetes mellitus and family history
as well [15].
2.4 Angina Pectoris
Angina pectoris is a cardiac-origin disease that results in
chest pain. It is a common observation in medical practices;
IHD predominates among 3–4% in the United Kingdom
adults. According to the report, a total coronary angiogram
was performed each year, and the result was 10% of new
cases of angina found [10]. It may be categorized as stable
2.7 Anaemia
In Greek, ‘an’ refers to lack/deciency, and ‘emia’ means
blood. Anaemia implies a lack of blood (RBCs count). The
formation of red blood cells is mainly regulated by a glycoprotein hormone named erythropoietin (EPO), which is
released by the peritubular cells of the kidney. The hypoxic
condition of the tissue and level of haemoglobin is smoothly

132

J. S. Bankar et al.
Fig. 2 Pathophysiology of atherosclerosis
associated with erythropoietin production. As the haemoglobin level falls below 7.0 g/dL, patients start experiencing
several anaemia-related symptoms, while EPO levels in
anaemic patients with renal failure are lower than expected/
normal [16]. Some dietary and metabolite deciencies like
iron and vitamin B12 can lead to anaemia. Dietary iron deciency, impaired iron absorption, and high requirement (in
children as a growth requirement and in women to full the
minimal range that is affected due to pregnancy or periods)
are general risk factors. Gastrointestinal bleeding and menstruation in women are the most frequent causes of iron deciency anaemia. Iron deciencies in various chronic
inammatory diseases include inammatory bowel disease,
chronic kidney disease, and congestive cardiac failure [17].
Cobalamin (Cbl) (vitamin B12) participates in two enzymatic activities in mammalian cells. Homocysteine (HCys)
is converted into methionine, which is responsible for DNA
formation in the methionine synthase process. DNA and
RNA synthesis decreases, and cells grow more extensively
than typical during early lysis due to vitamin B12/folic acid
deciency [18].
3 Therapeutic Signicance ofMedicinal
Plants andtheir Role inCVD
Traditional medicine and ethnomedicine, the study of conventional drugs used by different ethnic groups, are prevalent
today. In the past, natural resources were the primary supply of
medication for traditional medicine [5]. People use modern
medications more frequently than conventional medications
because they have a faster effect. However, it is costly and has
serious side effects. The anti-arrhythmic drug Amiodarone has
the potential to have an impact on almost every organ system,
including the lungs (pulmonary brosis, acute respiratory distress syndrome), thyroid gland (hypo- and hyperthyroidism),
liver, gastrointestinal tract, eyes, skin, and nervous system
(tremors) [19] and statins, which belong to the anti-hyperlipidemic medication class, also produce the most typical side
effects, including headache, myalgia, dizziness, cardiomyopathy, and an increase in blood transaminase. These toxins frequently damage the kidneys and are hazardous [20]. As a
result, individuals are more likely to use medicinal plants [21].
Due to a greater understanding of how herbs enhance health

and quality of life, herbal medicine has acquired universal
medical acceptance. According to growing evidence, using
phytochemicals and complete nutrition derived from plants is
a novel and potential CVD prevention method [22].
The traditional (herbal/alternative) systems of medicine
mention more than 2000 plants, some of which give relief to
people with cardiovascular disorders, particularly hyperlipidemia and ischemic heart disease. There can be no disputing
the undeniable aspect that the usage of herbal medicines for
preventive and therapeutic purposes is expanding globally
due to the widespread assumption that natural goods are riskfree and have few adverse effects. A recent WHO research
revealed that 80% of people in developing countries still rely
on natural remedies from conventional medicine for health
[23]. The prevention of low-density lipoprotein oxidation,
which encourages vasodilatation, is a standard avonoid
action. Plant sterols reduce blood cholesterol uptake, thereby
preventing CVD. By stimulating nuclear factor-erythroid
factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and avoiding the production
of cholesterol, plant sulphur compounds also prevent CVD
[22]. The details of different medicinal plants playing critical
roles in the treatment of CVD are represented below:
3.1 Acorus (Acorus calamus Linn.,
Acoraceae)
Shah etal. [24] investigated the activity of the Acorus calamus in ischemic cardiac conditions. Rhizomes of the Acorus
calamus were used to perform the study, and as a model, male
rabbits (1–1.5 kg) and bovine hearts were used. Isolated
bovine coronary arterial rings were used to investigate the
coronary vasodilator effect, and rabbit heart was used to study
the effect on heart parameters. They looked at the effect of
Acorus calamus extract at 0.01–10 mg/mL, ethyl acetate fraction and n-hexane fraction on coronary ow, pulse rate, and
force of contraction. These ndings suggested that the Acorus
calamus has a coronary vasodilator action, which may be
mediated by an endothelial-derived hyperpolarizing factor
(EDHF). The partial cardiac suppression effect may be advantageous as total suppression can cause cardiac arrest.
Another study by Shah etal. [25] discovered that crude
extract and ethyl acetate fraction inhibited the formation of
phenylephrine peak in the calcium (Ca+2) free medium. They
used rabbits (1–1.5 kg; n = 20) and male Sprague–Dawley
rats (200–250 g; n = 50) of either sex. The ndings suggested
that crude extract of Acorus calamus contains a combination
of constituents which shows blood pressure lowering effect
mediated by Ca+2 antagonism and nitric oxide pathways and
vasoconstrictor effects to counteract the excessive vasodilatation. This study gives a base for the medicinal use of the
Acorus calamus in hypertension.
3.2 Amla (Emblica ocinalis Gaertn.,
Euphorbiaceae)
Amla is from the Indian subcontinent; however, countries
like Pakistan, China, Malaysia, Southeast Asia, and
Uzbekistan also cultivated and used it as a source of nutrition and therapeutic implications [26]. The hydroalcoholic
extract of the herb Emblica ofcinalis (E. ofcinalis) has
9.4% polyphenols (notably 30% emblicanin A, 28% embli-
canin B, 13% punigluconin, and 15% pedunculagin), 0.58%
alkaloids, 0.11% avonoids, and 0.85% vitamin C [27].
Deoxycorticosterone acetate 1% NaCl high salt (DOCA/
HS-induced hypertension) induces an oxidative process
that leads to cardiac dysfunction, renal impairment, and
renovascular dysfunction; nevertheless, it may be advantageous due to its anti-oxidant effects. Hypertension induced
by (20 mg/kg, s.c.) DOCA-salt was used twice a week for 5
weeks with the replacement of drinking water and 1%
sodium chloride solution. Rats were cotreated for the same
period with E. ofcinalis at effective therapeutic doses of
75, 150, and 300 mg/kg/day. Nitric oxide production in the
blood increased along with decreased sodium (Na+) and
potassium (K+) levels, all related to E. ofcinalis antihypertensive effects. Furthermore, endothelial nitric oxide
synthase (eNOS), an alcoholic herb extract, signicantly
increased heart levels. As a sustained dose compared to
DOCA control rats, E. ofcinalis considerably reduced oxidative stress, raised blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiovascular and nephrotic hypertrophy through regulating
serum nitric oxide, electrolyte, an endogenous anti-oxidant,
and enforced eNOS level [26].
3.3 Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna Roxb.,
Combretaceae)
Meghwani etal. [28] investigated Terminalia arjuna for its
potential to prevent pulmonary hypertension (PH) in Wistar
rats instigated by monocrotaline (MCT). Rats (150–200 g)
were used in the study and arbitrarily separated into ve
groups; Sildenal (175 mg/kg/day 3 days after MCT for 25
days), once MCT 50 mg/kg given by s.c., and aqueous
extract of Arjuna (125,250 mg/kg/day through oral route)
were all received. Arjuna and Sildenal both prevented right
ventricle hypertrophy and RVSP caused by MCT.Although
Bcl2/Bax gene expression was substantially revealed to be
suppressed in the right ventricle during MCT-induced PH,
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Oxidase expression
was considerably boosted in the lung. In conclusion, the
aqueous extract of Terminalia arjuna reduced PH due to its
anti-oxidant capacity and effects on the thickness of the pulmonary artery.

3.4 Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera.,
Solanaceae)
The given study was completed to determine the mechanism
of Withania somnifera (WS) in myocardial damage. In the
current exploration experiment, Wistar rats were divided into
three groups, i.e. sham (LAD was not ligated), control, and
WS-50 mg/kg. Each group received normal saline for 1
month. On the 31 days, rats from the control IR and WS-IR
groups had their left anterior descending (LAD) coronary
arteries obstructed for 45 min, followed by an hour of reperfusion. Cardiac necrosis was caused by post-ischemic reperfusion injury when the IR control group was compared to the
sham group, which showed increased lipid peroxidation and
decreased anti-oxidant capacity. The given study revealed
that the anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic properties of WS
may support its heart-protective effect [29].
3.5 Betel Leaf (Piper betel., Piperaceae)
Arya etal. [30] investigated the cardioprotective potential of
Piper betel against isoproterenol (ISP)-induced myocardial
infarction in rats. On days 28, 29, and 30, ISP (85 mg/kg,
s.c.) was administered at intervals of 24 h, and functional and
biochemical parameters were measured. In addition to
increasing lipid peroxidation, ISP signicantly decreased the
myocardial anti-oxidants superoxide dismutase, catalase,
peroxidases, reduced glutathione, and myocyte damage
marker enzymes creatine phosphokinase-MB isoenzyme and
lactate dehydrogenase; the results revealed that the hydroalcoholic extract of P. betel (150 and 300 mg/kg) showed the
signicant cardioprotective effect against ISP-induced myocardial infarction. This study suggested the cardioprotective
potential of P. betel.
3.6 Bera or Mamyanu (Ziziphus oxyphylla.,
Rhamnaceae)
Ziziphus oxyphylla (Z. oxyphylla) has long been used to
treat hypertension. It contains more derivatives of quercetin, kaempferol, catechin, and cyclopeptide alkaloids. The
hydroalcoholic extract of Z. oxyphylla (HAEZO) was prepared, and their anti-hypertensive effect was studied.
NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) was used to
induce hypertension in rats. The study of the antihypertensive effects of HAEZO (200 and 400 mg/kg) and
Kaempferol (100 mg/kg) was administered through intraperitoneal injections of L-NAME (185 umol/kg) in hypertensive rats. HPLC and ESI-MS/MS determined kaempferol,
quercetin, catechin, ceanothic acid, zizybernalic acid, and
oxyphylline F. After chronic HAEZO and kaempferol
administration, systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure
in L-NAME- induced hypertensive rats were effectively (p
< 0.001) decreased. Serum nitric oxide and cGMP levels
were signicantly (p < 0.001) elevated. Oxidative stressrelated inammatory markers (MDA, CAT, SOD, GSH)
were also enhanced by HAEZO and kaempferol administration. In hypertensive animals, the increased IL-6 and
TNF- α concentrations were signicantly reduced by
HAEZO treatment. The anti-hypertensive effects of
HAEZO also caused endothelial nitric oxide synthase to be
upregulated and angiotensin- converting enzyme to be
downregulated [31].
3.7 Candlenut Tree (Aleurites moluccana.,
Euphorbiaceae)
The importance of an alcoholic extract from Aleurites moluccana leaves to lower lipid prole status was investigated
using a high-fat diet supplemented with rats and Triton
W-1339. These dried leaves (600 g) were cut into small
pieces before being macerated at room temperature for 10
days to produce the methanol extract. The administration of
leaf extract showed a signicant reduction in body weight in
Triton-induced hypercholesterolemic rats and serum cholesterol without any drop in the regular diet. The results provided the potential of this natural product to lower cholesterol
by its capacity to bring down intestinal lipid utilization and
inhibit the synthesis of hepatic cholesterol [32].
3.8 Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum.,
Lauraceae)
In one study carried out in 30 male Wistar rats (8-weeksolds) weighing 250–300 g, long-term aerobic training and
administration of cinnamon extract affecedt cardiac function, biochemical alterations, and lipid prole following
exhaustive exercise. The study included a progressive
increase in training speed and duration incorporated into an
8-week endurance training regimen. A catheter with a balloon tip was inserted into the left ventricles to measure the
myocardial hemodynamics. Blood samples were taken to
examine lipid proles, biochemical indicators, and the lipidperoxidation marker malondialdehyde (MDA).
Simultaneously, physical exercise and cinnamon administration positively affected cardiac hemodynamics. Regular
training and cinnamon supplementation reect increased
high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL/LDL ratio and
decreased serum total cholesterol level, low- density lipoprotein (LDL). Reduced serum MDA levels, improved blood
lipid prole, where cinnamon and regular exercise also positively affected cardiac function [33].

3.9 Drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lam.,
Moringaceae)
Indians utilize the Moringa oleifera Lam. leaves as a hypocholesterolemic medication in people with obesity. Hence,
the medical evidence for their usage in hypercholesterolemia
was explored. In the experiment, 15 male Wistar rats were
used, and it was determined that a high-fat diet increased the
serum, liver, and kidney cholesterol by (115-103.2 mg/100
mL of serum), (9.4-8.8 mg/g wet weight), and (1.09-0.97
mg/g wet weight), i.e. 14.35%, 6.4%, and 11%, respectively.
However, when M. oleifera aqueous crude leaf extract was
administered, these increased levels were found to be
reduced. The serum cholesterol effect was signicant, and
there was no signicant effect on serum total protein. The
aqueous crude extract showed an increase in serum albumin
by 15.22% (46–53 g/L). The statistical signicance of this
value was also determined. The study concluded that M. ole-
ifera leaves exhibited marked hypocholesterolemic action
and have a sound pharmacological background in India [34].
3.10 Garlic (Allium sativum., Liliaceae)
Garlic (Allium sativum) is widely available and utilized
worldwide as a spice, food ingredient, and home remedy.
Garlic has been a component of folk medicine for thousands
of years and has been used to treat many illnesses. Many
studies have been published about preventing atherosclerosis, coronary thrombosis, and stroke. The garlic effect has
been evaluated for its ability to prevent thromboxane production and platelet aggregation. The study determined the
impact of garlic aqueous bulb extract on thromboxane and
prostacyclin generation in whole rabbit blood and aorta
invitro and exvivo. During blood clotting, a dose-dependent
reduction of thromboxane synthesis was observed. Any concentration of garlic extract employed in the experiment did
not affect prostacyclin production. The maximum concentration of garlic utilized in invitro tests resulted in a small but
negligible decrease in prostacyclin vascular synthesis. The
aorta’s ability to produce thromboxane was inhibited at all
the measured garlic concentrations. After receiving an intraperitoneal injection of garlic (1 mL/kg) for a week, it was
observed that the ex vivo thromboxane and prostacyclin
enzymatic synthesis of these tissues showed a similar pattern. Garlic treatment signicantly boosted the aortic production of prostacyclin as compared to control rabbits. The
study ndings suggested that garlic administration may
selectively reduce platelet aggregation and production of
thromboxane while protecting vascular prostacyclin synthesis [35].
3.11 Gentiana (Gentiana oribunda.,
Gentianaceae)
The investigation was done on Gentiana oribunda (G.
oribunda) for its possible effect against hypertension
and as a vasodilator. Hydroalcoholic extract of the whole
plant was used in the study, and as a model, male Sprague–
Dawley rats (240–260 g) were used. G. oribunda contains avonoids, saponins, sterols, tannins, and terpenes,
which cause falls in BP in anaesthetized rats in a dosedependent (3.0–100 mg/kg) manner, and its vasodilator
effect was endothelial- independent. Compared to verapamil, the drug showed a reduction in contraction induced
by high K+ (80 mM) and phenylephrine (1M) at concentrations between 1.0 and 10 mg/mL.Also, it shifted the
Ca+2 dose–response curves to the right. These ndings
suggested that G. oribunda gives blood pressure-lowering action mediated by Ca+2 antagonism and is helpful in
hypertension [36].
3.12 Ginko (Gingko biloba., Ginkgoaceae)
In the present research attempt, Tiana etal. [37] discovered
the action of Ginkgo biloba (G. biloba) on endoplasmic
reticulum stress (ERS) and autophagy. Using network pharmacology, the targets, metabolic routes of the G. biloba
leaves and phytochemical constituents responsible for attenuating atherosclerosis (AS) are forecast. In this study, male

(50 mg/kg/day) was administered to ApoE

constituents of G. biloba extract (GBE) were targeted at the
NF-B and mTOR signalling pathways to lower AS. G. biloba
also decreased blood glucose levels and inammatory
cytokines.
the effects of G. biloba treatment on blood pressure, vascular
tone, and calcium mobilization. Wistar Kyoto (WKY) and
spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were given either a
control food or a diet containing 0.05–0.5% ginkgo for 30
days. While ginkgo powder was administered to WKY, it
showed no effect but a signicant drop in systolic blood pressure in SHR. As per network pharmacology prediction,
chemical compounds of GBE targeted the mammalian target
of rapamycin (mTOR) and NF-κB signalling pathways to
lowered AS.GBE decreased plaque/lumen area and plaque
lipid deposition area/intimal area while inhibiting CD68,
MMP2, and MMP9 expression.
