Herbal monomers such as polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, quinones and polysaccharides inhibit the expression of ROS through various signaling pathways and reduce the damage caused by OS to the organism. This can be reflected by the upregulation of SOD, GPX, CAT, GSH, NO, eNOS phosphorylation and downregulation of inflammation, ROS, vascular remodeling, ECs proliferation and migration
