摘要
Aim: To study the effect of ginsenoside Re on PC12 cell damage induced by serum deprivation and P-amyloid peptide. Methods: PC 12 cell survival was measured by MT7 and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay. Results Serum-free medium and P-amyloid peptide (10-100 mu M) induced cytotoxicity in PC 12 cells. Ginsenoside Re (0.1-100 mu M) attenuated the cytotoxic effects of serum-free medium and beta-amyloid peptide (50 mu M) in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusion: Ginsenoside Re prevented PC 12 cells from lesion induced by serum-free medium and P-amyloid peptide. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
