EFFECT OF THE TOTAL SAPONIN OF DIPSACUS ASPER ON INTRACELLULAR FREE CALCIUM CONCENTRATION IN THE CELLULAR MODEL OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE-SCANNING CONFOCAL MICROSCOPY
Objective To study the effect of ginsenoside Rb1 and total saponin of dipsacus asper on intracellular free calcium concentration mediated by β amyloid protein.So as to lay a foundation for developing effective Chinese traditional medicine to treat Alzheimer’s disease.Methods The technique of laser scanning confocal microscopy combining primary cultured neurons was adopted to quantitatively analyze the change of [Ca 2+ ] i.Results The [Ca 2+ ] i of primary cultured hippocampal neurons was nmol·L -1 on basal levels.Control group showed obvious change of calcium vibration,[Ca 2+ ] i was elevated to nmol·L -1 .The peak of [Ca 2+ ] i of Rb1 group reached nmol·L -1 and was lower than that of control group .The tSDA group displayed distinct change of calcium vibration too,and [Ca 2+ ] i reached nmol·L -1 .There was a significant difference in [Ca 2+ ] i between control and tSDA group .Conclusion The research indicated that one of mechanisms by which Rb1 and tSDA protected the neurons was to maintain the balance of [Ca 2+ ] i.
