Project description:Insulin resistance (IR) is likely to induce metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Gluconeogenesis (GNG) is a complex metabolic process that may result in glucose generation from certain non-carbohydrate substrates. Chinese herbal medicine astragalus polysaccharides and berberine have been documented to ameliorate IR, and combined use of astragalus polysaccharide (AP) and berberine (BBR) are reported to synergistically produce an even better effect. However, what change may occur in the GNG signaling pathway of IR-HepG2 cells in this synergistic effect and whether AP-BBR attenuates IR by regulating the GNG signaling pathway remain unclear. For the first time, we discovered in this study that the optimal time of IR-HepG2 cell model formation was 48 hours after insulin intervention. AP-BBR attenuated IR in HepG2 cells and the optimal concentration was 10mg. AP-BBR reduced the intracellular H2O2 content with no significant effect on apoptosis of IR-HepG2 cells. In addition, a rapid change was observed in intracellular calcium current of the IR-HepG2 cell model, and AP-BBR intervention attenuated this change markedly. The gene sequencing results showed that the GNG signaling pathway was one of the signaling pathways of AP-BBR to attenuate IR in IR-Hepg2 cells. The expression of p-FoxO1Ser256 and PEPCK protein was increased and the expression of GLUT2 protein was decreased significantly in the IR-HepG2 cell model, and both of these effects could be reversed by AP-BBR intervention. AP-BBR attenuated IR in IR-HepG2 cells, probably by regulating the GNG signaling Pathway.

Project description:Objective: To study the effect of astragalus polysaccharide combined with metformin on mRNA expression profile of type 2 diabetic mice, and to explore the molecular mechanism of astragalus polysaccharide combined with metformin in the treatment of type 2 aging diabetes. Methods: Natural aging mice were induced by high-sugar and high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin to prepare aging diabetes model. The experimental mice were divided into aging control group, aging diabetes model group, metformin treatment group, astragalus polysaccharide and metformin. The treatment group was treated with gavage for 60 consecutive days. Immunohistochemical detection of insulin levels in pancreatic tissue of each group of mice, serum insulin levels were measured by mouse insulin kit to observe the treatment of aging diabetes and astragalus polysaccharide combined with metformin; using Agilent mouse whole gene expression profile chip The mRNA expression changes of liver tissues in each group were analyzed, and the differential genes were screened by bioinformatics tools and the differential genes and signal pathways were enriched and analyzed. Results: Compared with the aging group, the insulin and insulin antibody levels in the model group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the insulin and insulin antibody levels in the two treatment groups increased (P<0.05), and jaundice The level of polysaccharide in combination with metformin was significantly higher than that in metformin group (P<0.05). The differential gene analysis of the chip showed that there were 5617 differential genes in the aging diabetes model group, 3131 were up-regulated, and 2486 were down-regulated; the Astragalus polysaccharide combined with metformin treatment group had 4767 differential genes, compared with the aging diabetes model group. 2143 up-regulated, 2624 down-regulated, genes with significant differences were mainly involved in protease activity and drug metabolism, and significantly enriched into 33 signaling pathways (P<0.01). Conclusion: The gene regulatory network plays an important role in the intervention of Astragalus polysaccharides and metformin in the treatment of aging type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) results in loss of neural control and severe disabilities in patients. Promoting functional nerve recovery by accelerating angiogenesis is a promising neuroprotective treatment strategy. Here, we identified a bioactive Radix Astragalus polysaccharide (RAP) extracted from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as a potent enhancer of axonal regeneration and remyelination. Notably, RAP promoted functional recovery and delayed gastrocnemius muscle atrophy in a rat model of sciatic nerve crush injury. Further, RAP treatment induced angiogenesis in vivo. Moreover, our in vitro results showed that the role of RAP in endothelial cell (EC) migration and tube formation was probably related to the activation of AKT/eNOS signaling pathway. Altogether, our results show that RAP can enhance functional recovery by accelerating angiogenesis, thereby providing a polysaccharide-based therapeutic strategy for PNI.

Project description:Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid isolated from many medicinal herbs such as Coptis chinensis, has a wide range of pharmacological effects including anti-cancer 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 HCC. Here, we used miRNA microarray to analyze microRNA expression profiles of HepG2 human hepatoma cell line after berberine chloride treatment or 0.08% DMSO as control. Comparing miRNA profiles of 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine-treated HepG2 human hepatoma cell line to those of control cells sampled after 2 and 4 hours treatment. A 50 mM stock solution of Berberine chloride was prepared in DMSO. Cells were treated with 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine chloride or 0.08% DMSO as control.
