RESUMO
An improved bile microdialysis sampling technique was established and coupled with liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-qTOF-MS) analysis. This method was successfully applied to investigate the metabolic profiles of Ermiao wan (EMW) formula in the bile of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Based on accurate mass information and fragment patterns, 23 alkaloids and lactones metabolites were tentatively identified. Their metabolic pathway involved in glucuronidation, sulfation, hydroxylation and hydrolysis. Because of the high time resolution of microdialysis, the metabolic profiles of EMW were also investigated. Jatrorrhizine, columbamine and other components showed a "double-peak" profiles, suggesting the existence of enterohepatic circulation. The developed microdialysis sampling/ LC-qTOF-MS method provides a simple and efficient research tool for understanding and clarifying the mechanism of hepatobiliary excretion of complex components.

Objective: This research was aimed to detect the functions of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBPs) on oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) injury and potential mechanisms at PC-12 cells. Methods: CCK-8, flow cytometry and reactive oxygen species (ROS) assays were used to detect OGD, LBPs and miR-24 effects on cell viability, apoptosis, and oxidative stress. MiR-24 was transfected and texted by transfection and qRT-PCR. Moreover, the related-protein levels of apoptosis, autophagy and pathways were tested by Western blotting. Results: LBPs significantly enhanced cell viability , inhibited cell apoptosis, autophagy and ROS level in OGD injury. In addition, miR-24 expression was declined in OGD-treated cells, while it was elevated when added LBPs. The preventive effects of LBPs on PC-12 cell damage induced by OGD were reversed by down-regulating miR-24. Furthermore, miR-24 inhibitor declined LBPs-induced change in Wnt/ß-catenin and JAK1/STAT3 pathways in OGD-injuried cells. Conclusions: LBPs exhibited preventive effects via up-regulating miR-122 and activating Wnt/ß-catenin and JAK1/STAT3 pathways in OGD-induced PC-12 cells.
