Résumé
Aim To study the dopaminergic neuroprotection of quercetin-3-O-sophoroside and total flavonoids derived from Poacynum hendersonni in MPTP-induced mice model of Parkinson's disease.Methods To inject MPTP intraperitoneal to C57/bl6 mouse at 30 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1) 5 days for PD model preparation, qercetin-3-O-sophoroside(25 mg·kg~(-1))and total flavonoids(250 mg·kg~(-1))were treated through intragastric administration 7 days before.Watching the mice behavior change through autonomic activities and pole test after final treatment, dopamine content in striatum was determined with fluorescence photometer.The neurons pathological change in substantia nigra(SN)was observed by pafaffin slice and immunohistochemistry staining to analyze the dopaminergic neuroprotective effects of Poacynum hendersonni.Results Treatment of quercetin-3-O-sophoroside for 7 days in advance, can improve PD mice motivation and dopamine concentration in striatum, tyrosine hydroxylase immune-reactive neurons in SN increased as well.Conclusion Quercetin-3-O-sophoroside can attenuate the impairment of MPTP in mice model of PD.
