The aim of this pilot study was to investigate whether the administration of Salvia miltiorrhiza hydrophilic extract (SMHE) reduced the level of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in diabetic patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Sixty-two diabetic patients with CHD were recruited and randomly assigned into placebo and treatment groups. Patients were given SMHE for 60 days. Levels of sVCAM-1, vWF and oxidative low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) were determined by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that the levels of VCAM-1 and vWF positively correlated with the level of oxLDL in diabetic patients with CHD. Levels of sVCAM-1 and vWF in serum were reduced significantly in patients receiving SMHE treatment at day 60 in comparison with the baseline. Administration of SMHE also led to a clear decrease in the levels of oxLDL in diabetic patients with CHD. In summary, this study suggests that SMHE has a potential protective effect on the development of diabetic cardiovascular disease. Copyright (c) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
