| Abstract | Achyranthes bidentata Blume is a commonly prescribed Chinese medicinal herb. Our previous studies have proved the neuroprotective function of Achyranthes bidentata polypeptides (ABPP), a major constituent from aqueous extracts of the herb. Now we have separated an active fraction, referred to as ABPP-E4, from ABPP by HPLC methods. This study aimed to investigate the possible therapeutic potential of ABPP-E4. Assessments of cell viability and apoptosis indicated that ABPP-E4 pretreatment, in a concentration-dependent manner, antagonized the cell viability loss and cell apoptosis of cultured SH-SY5Y cells deprived of serum. ABPP-E4 pretreatment also resulted in increase of Bcl-2/Bax ratio and inhibition of caspase-3 activation in the cells on exposure to serum deprivation. Signaling pathway analysis indicated that ABPP-E4 treatment stimulated the activation of Akt/Gsk3β signaling in cultured SH-SY5Y cells, and anti-apoptotic effects of ABPP-E4 could be blocked by chemical inhibition of PI3K. Taken together, all the results suggest that ABPP-E4 might exert protective effects against serum deprivation-induced neuronal apoptosis through modulation of PI3K/Akt/Gsk3β pathways. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
