In the present review, we sorted the saponin components with anti-MIRI effects and their regulatory mechanisms. Each saponin can play a cardioprotective role via multiple mechanisms, and the signaling pathways involved in different saponins are not the same. We found that more active saponins in Panax ginseng C. A. Mey. are mainly dammar-type structures and have a strong regulatory effect on energy metabolism. The highly active saponin components of Aralia chinensis L. are oleanolic acid structures, which have significant regulatory effects on calcium homeostasis. Therefore, saponins in Chinese herbal medicine provide a broad application prospect for the development of highly effective and low-toxicity anti-MIRI drugs.Heart failure is a systemic syndrome caused by multiple pathological factors. Current treatments do not have satisfactory outcomes. Several basic studies have revealed the protective effect of trimetazidine on the heart, not only by metabolism modulation but also by relieving myocardial apoptosis, fibrosis, autophagy, and inflammation. Clinical studies have consistently indicated that trimetazidine acts as an adjunct to conventional treatments and improves the symptoms of heart failure. This review summarizes the basic pathological changes in the myocardium, with an emphasis on the alteration of cardiac metabolism in the development of heart failure. The clinical application of trimetazidine in heart failure and the mechanism of its protective effects on the myocardium are carefully discussed, as well as its main adverse effects. The intention of this review is to highlight this treatment as an effective alternative against heart failure and provide additional perspectives for future studies.Spider venoms include various peptide toxins that modify the ion currents, mainly of excitable insect cells. Consequently, scientific res
