RESUMEN
Objective:To discuss the protective effect of gingerone on the hippocampal neuron HT22 cells after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R),and to clarify the related mechanism.Methods:The HT22 cells were cultured,and the OGD/R cell injury model was established by setting the gradient of OGD/R time.The HT22 cells were divided into control group,OGD/R group,OGD/R+ 1 μmol·L-1 gingerone group,OGD/R + 10 μmol·L-1 gingerone group,OGD/R+100 μmol·L-1 gingerone group,and OGD/R+0.2%dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)group.The viability of the cells in various groups was detected by CCK-8 assay;the survival rates of the cells in various groups were calculated to determine the optimal drug concentration of gingerone.The cells were divided into control,OGD/R group,OGD/R+ gingerone,and OGD/R+gingerone+nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2(Nrf2)inhibitor(ML385)groups.The cells in OGD/R + gingerone group were treated with gingerone for 4 h before OGD treatment for 8 h followed by reoxygenation for 8 h,and the cells in OGD/R+gingerone+ ML385 group were treated with 10 μmol·L-1 ML385 for 6 h before gingerone treatment.The viability of the cells in various groups was detected by CCK-8 assay;the expression levels of Nrf2,heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),and Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax)proteins in the cells in various groups were detected by Western blotting method;the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and the level of malondialdehyde(MDA)in the cell culture supernatant in various groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method.Results:Compared with control group,the survival rate of the HT22 cells was below 50%after treated with OGD for 8 h and reoxygenation for 8 h,so the HT22 cell OGD/R model was established by treated with OGD for 8 h and reoxygenation for 8 h.Compared with OGD/R group,the survival rates of the cells in OGD/R+different doses of gingerone groups were increased to various extents,and the survival rate of the cells in OGD/R+ 100 μmol·L-1 gingerone group was significantly increased(P<0.01);so 100 μmol·L-1 gingerone was used for the subsequent experiment.Compared with control group,the viability of the cells in OGD/R group was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and Bax proteins in the cells were significantly increased(P<0.01),while the expression level of Bcl-2 protein in the cells was significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the SOD activity in the cell culture supernatant was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the level of MDA was significantly increased(P<0.01);compared with OGD/R group,the viability of the cells in OGD/R + gingerone group was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and Bcl-2 proteins in the cells were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),while the expression level of Bax protein in the cells was decreased(P<0.05),the SOD activity in the cell culture supernatant was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the level of MDA was significantly decreased(P<0.01);compared with OGD/R + gingerone group,the viability of the cells in OGD/R + gingerone + ML385 group was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and Bcl-2 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.01),while the expression level of Bax protein in the cells was significantly increased(P<0.01),the SOD activity in the cell culture supernatant was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the level of MDA was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:Gingerone alleviates the oxidative stress damage,and thereby plays an inhibiory effect on the apoptosis of the HT22 neurons by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway after OGD/R.
RESUMEN
Based on the previous research results of our group and literature research, the chemical components, mechanisms, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata were summarized to determine the quality markers(Q-markers) of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata and Zingiberis Rhizoma. Our research group has clarified the differential components of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata and Zingiberis Rhizoma, the meridian-warming hemostatic effect of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata, the related targets and pathways of the effect, the endogenous biomarkers of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata, and the hemodynamic processes of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata and Zingiberis Rhizoma. Moreover, based on high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry(HPLC-DAD-ESIMS), a method for determining the content of Q-mar-kers was established. In conclusion, the study finally determined that gingerone, 6-shogaol, and diacetyl-6-gingerol were the Q-mar-kers of Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata decoction pieces, and 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol, and 10-gingerol were Q-markers of Zingiberis Rhizoma decoction pieces. The result is expected to provide a reference for the establishment of quality standards for Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisata decoction pieces and Zingiberis Rhizoma decoction pieces.

Zingerone (ZO), a nontoxic methoxyphenol, has been demonstrated to exert various important biological effects. However, its action on varying types of ionic currents and how they concert in neuronal cells remain incompletely understood. With the aid of patch clamp technology, we investigated the effects of ZO on the amplitude, gating, and hysteresis of plasmalemmal ionic currents from both pituitary tumor (GH3) cells and hippocampal (mHippoE-14) neurons. The exposure of the GH3 cells to ZO differentially diminished the peak and late components of the INa. Using a double ramp pulse, the amplitude of the INa(P) was measured, and the appearance of a hysteresis loop was observed. Moreover, ZO reversed the tefluthrin-mediated augmentation of the hysteretic strength of the INa(P) and led to a reduction in the ICa,L. As a double ramp pulse was applied, two types of voltage-dependent hysteresis loops were identified in the ICa,L, and the replacement with BaCl2-attenuated hysteresis of the ICa,L enhanced the ICa,L amplitude along with the current amplitude (i.e., the IBa). The hysteretic magnitude of the ICa,L activated by the double pulse was attenuated by ZO. The peak and late INa in the hippocampal mHippoE-14 neurons was also differentially inhibited by ZO. In addition to acting on the production of reactive oxygen species, ZO produced effects on multiple ionic currents demonstrated herein that, considered together, may significantly impact the functional activities of neuronal cells.
