In Vivo Microdialysis And In Vitro Hplc Analysis Of The Impact Of Paeoniflorin On The Monoamine Levels And Their Metabolites In The Rodent Brain, Yuh-Tzy Lin, Wei-Shih Huang, Huei-Yann Tsai, Min-Min Lee, Yuh-Fung Chen

BioMedicine

Background: Paeoniflorin (PF) possesses several effects such as analgesic, the anti-spasmodic effect on smooth muscle. It protects the cardiovascular system and reveals the neuroprotective effect on cerebral ischemia. Monoamine system has been identified to have complex regulatory effects in pain signaling. There are no reports regarding the impact of PF on monoamine levels in the rodent brain by microdialysis. In this study, the effects of PF on monoamines and their metabolites in the rodent brain usingin vivomicrodialysis andin vitrohigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis.

Methods: Male S.D. rats were anesthetized, fixed onto the stereotaxic instrument to identify the positions of …

Gynura BicolorAqueous Extract Attenuated H2O2Induced Injury In Pc12 Cells, Ya-Chen Yang, Wen-Tzu Wu, Mei-Chin Mong, Zhi-Hong Wang

BioMedicine

Background: Protective effects ofGynura bicoloraqueous extract (GAE) at three concentrations upon nerve growth factor (NGF) differentiated-PC12 cells against H₂O₂induced injury were examined.

Methods: NGF differentiated-PC12 cells were treated with GAE at 0.25%, 0.5% or 1%. 100 μM H₂O₂was used to treat cells with GAE pre-treatments. After incubating at 37 °C for 12 hr, experimental analyses were processed.

Results: H₂O₂exposure decreased cell viability, increased plasma membrane damage, suppressed Bcl-2 mRNA expression and enhanced Bax mRNA expression. GAE pre-treatments reversed these changes. H₂O₂exposure reduced mitochondrial membrane …
