Myrtenal exhibits cardioprotective effects by attenuating the pathological progression associated with myocardial infarction.

Background: Myocardial infarction poses major risks to human health because of their incredibly high rates of morbidity and mortality. Infarctions are more likely to develop as a result of dysregulation of cell death. Myrtenal can be considered for their bioactive beneficial activity in the context of cardiovascular pathologies and, particularly, in the protection toward oxidative stress followed by ischemic injury.
