ABSTRACT: Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid isolated from many medicinal herbs such as Coptis chinensis, has a wide range of pharmacological effects. Since xenobiotic drug-induced micoRNAs have recently emerged as key regulators in guiding their pharmacological effects and toxicity, we were interested in whether or not micoRNA expression was differentially altered by berberine treatment in liver. Here, we used miRNA microarray to analyze microRNA expression profiles of primary human hepatocytes after berberine chloride treatment or 0.08% DMSO as control. Comparing miRNA profiles of 40 ïM berberine-treated primary human hepatocytes to those of control cells sampled after 2 hours treatment. A 50 mM stock solution of Berberine chloride was prepared in DMSO. Cells were treated with 40 ïM berberine chloride or 0.08% DMSO as control.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans comparing fluconazole treated cells with fluconazole- and berberine-treated cells, as well untreated cells with berberine treated cells Three different clinical FLC-resistant strains (0304103, 01010 and 632) were selected to carry out the expression profile microarray. Two-condition experiment, fluconazole-treated vs. fluconazole- and berberine-treated cells, and untreated cells vs. berberine-treated cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 transfected, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:The anti-diabetes activity of Rhizoma Coptidis was documented in the book âNotes of Elite Physiciansâ written by Hongjing Tao 1500 years ago. Berberine (BBR) is the major isoquinoline alkaloid constituent of the Chinese herb Rhizoma Coptidis, which has the beneficial characteristic of regulating glucose and lipid metabolism and has been extensively used in the treatment of obesity, diabetes and hypercholesterolemia. However, the effect of berberine on specific diabetes treatment targets is unknown. This study was conducted to elucidate the genome-wide gene expression profile in Zucker Diabetic Fatty Rats liver tissues in response to Berberine treatment.
