However, the serum level of chitooctaose was low whereas it showed significant therapeutic effects on myocarditis by improving cardiac parameters (left ventricular internal dimension, both end-systolic and end-diastolic, ejection fraction, and fractional shortening), inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-10, IL-17A, and IFN-γ), oxidative factors (ROS and RNS), and apoptotic factors (caspase 3, BAX, and BCL-2) when compared with chitopentaose, chitohexaose, and chitooctaose (COS DP > 4). Here, CASP3 is linked to myocarditis.
