The cardiac effects of Phellinus linteus have been investigated on the isolated perfused guinea pig hearts maintained at the constant hydrostatic perfusion pressure of 80 ㎝ water. The effects of Phellinus linteus on ADP and PAF - induced platelet aggregation in vitro were also investigated. In ischemia-reperfusion experiments, Phellinus linteus showed negative inotropic effects by decreasing of LVP, LVDP, LV dp/dt and Rate Pressure Product, and also showed cardiac protective effect by increasing the coronary flow (CF) in the guinea pig heart. In platelet aggregation experiment, Phellinus linteus did not affect the ADP (5 μM) induced platelet aggregation, but reduced PAF (0.3 μM) induced aggregation by 26.03 ± 8.86% and 53.42 ± l2.36% at 1.0 ㎍/㎖ and 3.0 ㎍/㎖, respectively.
