It has also been hypothesized that they can protect neurons from oxidative stress. OBJECTIVE： To investigate protective effects of EGB on peroxide （H2O2）-induced oxidative stress damage in PC12 cells. DESIGN： Observational contrast study. SETTING： Department ofPathophysiology, Guangdong Pharmacological College. MATERIALS： EGB was provided by Xi＇an Fujie Biotechnological Development Company; 1640 culture medium, methylthiazolyl tetrazolium （MTT）, trypsin and dimathyl sulfoxide （DMSO） by Sigma Company; PC12 cell strain by Cell Center of Medical College of Zhongshan University; calf serum by Hangzhou Sijiqing Bioengineering Company; lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） kit by Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Research Institute. METHODS： The experiment was carried out in Department of Cell Biology of Guangdong Pharmacological College from June to December 2005. ①Cell culture： PC12 cells were cultured in 1640 medium containing 200 g/L fetal calf serum. The cells were diluted to 1 × 10^7 L^-1 and washed every two days. Those cells were used to experiment until they grew in logarithm on solid wall. ② Grouping and intervention： PC12 cells （1 × 10^8L^-1） were plated in 96-well plates with the density of 200 μ L/hole and divided into three groups： normal control group （routinely adding media）, H2O2 group （treating with media and H2O2 for 20 hours） and EGB group （adding media, 100μmol/L EGB and 100 μmol/L H2O2）. ③ MTT assay： PC12 cells （1 × 10^8L^-1） were plated in 96-well plates and divided into three groups with 8 holes for each group. Under sterile condition, cells were added with 5 g/L MTT （100μL） and cultured for 4 hours. And then, 200 μ L DMSO fluid was added and shaken for 30 minutes until blue crystal products formed were dissolved soundly ④ Experimental evaluation： Absorbance （A） at 630 nm was measured and LDH activity was measured at the same time. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： Results of MTT assay and LDH activity. RESULTS： ① Results of MTT assay： A value was lower in the H2O2 group than that in the normal control group （P 〈 0.01）, while A value was higher in the EGB group than that in the H2O2 group （P 〈 0.01）. ② LDH activity： LDH activity was higher in the H2O2 group than that in the normal control group （P 〈 0.01 ）, while LDH activity was lower in the EGB group than that in the H2O2 group （P 〈 0.01）. CONCLUSION： EGB can inhibit H2O2-induced oxidative stress damage in PC12 cells possibly by preventing damage to the cell membrane.展开更多

At first,methanol was used to extract flavonoid glycosides,which were then hydrolyzed by hydrochloric acid solution. HPLC was performed with Platisil ODS column C18( 150 mm ×4. 6 mm,5 μm) using mobile phase Vmethanol∶ Vwater( 0. 4% phosphoric acid solution) = 55∶45 at a flow rate of 1 ml/min,and the eluate was detected with a shimadzu HPLC ultraviolet detector at 360 nm. [Results]With kaempferol as the reference substance,the correlation coefficient was0. 999 2 in the range of 0. 001 06-0. 016 96 g/L. The content in the fermented product was less than that in the non-fermented product by 28%. [Conclusions]The method is simple,accurate,and is suitable for determination of kaempferol. This study will provide an experimental basis for the development and utilization of ginkgo.展开更多
