[ Method] With ethyl ace- tate-acetone-formic acid-water （10：7：2：0.5） as the developer and 10% sulfuric acid ethanol solution as the chromogenic reagent, the samples were heated at 100 ~C until the spots were clearly visible, and the existence of gardenoside was checked under natural light. With toluene-acetone（9：l ） as the developer and 5% vanillin sulfuric acid solution as the chromogenic reagent, the samples were heated at 105 ~C until the spots were clearly visible, and the existence of sarsasapogenin was checked under natural light. [Result] Qingwen baidu granules had the same spots with gardenoside and sarsasapogenin at the same Rfvalue under natural light. [ Conclusion] A TLC method detecting gardenoside and sarsasapogenin in Qingwen baidu granules was established, which had good specificity and repeatability, suitable for rapid detection of gardenoside and sarsasapogenin.展开更多

In the present study, the memory loss induced by human Abeta protein over-expression in fruitfly Alzheimer's disease(AD) model was rescued by multiple extracts from Gardenia jasminoides. Three extracts that rich with gardenia yellow, geniposide, and gardenoside components showed distinct rescue effect on memory loss. Further investigation on adding gardenoside into a formula of Ganoderma lucidum, Panax notoginseng and Panax ginseng(GPP) also support its therapeutic effects on memory improvement. Interestingly, the application of GPP and gardenoside did not alter the accumulation of Abeta proteins but suppressed the expression of immune-related genes in the brain. These results revealed the importance and relevancy of anti-inflammation process and the underlying mechanisms on rescuing memory deficits, suggesting the potential therapeutic use of the improved GPP formulation in improving cognition in defined population in the future.展开更多
