- W3204657321 abstract "Nigella sativa is famous for its usefulness in a wide range of diseases and disorders since ancient times. Numerous plant-derived products play an important role in promoting cardiac health. N. sativa is the name of a plant whose seeds are well known for their medicinal uses in many Middle East, Asian, and far Eastern countries. These plants are mainly found in North Africa, Indian subcontinent and Western Asia (Eric Y. and Kathy A., 2014). N. sativa is the part of kingdom Plantae and family of flowering plants known as Ranunculaceae. It is also known by many names such as black seed or kalonji. This plant has many active ingredients such as amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and some volatile oils (Fatemah et al., 2014). Among these, thymoquinone (TQ) is one of the active ingredients of N. sativa (Oskouei et al., 2018). It is well known for its usefulness in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). CVDs form the single largest cause of early mortality in developed as well as developing countries at an alarming rate. TQ and N. sativa as a whole have a protective role on a wide range of metabolic and cardiac diseases. This is mainly due to its rich flavonoid and antioxidant content. A balance between free radical injury and antioxidant intake helps our body’s defense mechanism to overcome different forms of oxidative stress. TQ may prove as a useful substance that may help in improvement of biochemical imbalances in human body. It has been observed in different studies that TQ efficiently improved CVD by declining β-hydroxy β-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase activity and hence lowering the total cholesterol levels. Studies have shown that TQ decreases mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate in hypertensive rats. Biochemically, fatty acids like linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid have been found in N. sativa derivatives. Various aromatic constituents such as TQ, dihydrothymoquinone, thymol, carvacrol, and different alkaloids are also present in N. Sativa. Antioxidant properties of its various components make it a useful substance. The main precursor for build-up of oxidative stress is reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation in excess amounts. This is due to oxidation of various biomolecules and adds on to the vascular changes in the heart and damage to vessels. TQ is well known for its role in CVDs. Various studies have shown that TQ promotes and boosts heart health. Antioxidant defense mechanisms of our body fail to balance this surplus ROS production; hence, produce oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is the major culprit for various metabolic disorders like CVDs, systemic hypertension, diabetes mellitus, etc. In this chapter, we have discussed how N. Sativa intake can help in prevention of cardiovascular disorders that is becoming a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide." @default.
