- W4282938286 abstract "Xiao Bopi (XBP, སྐྱེར་བའི་བར་ཤུན།), as a classical Tibetan medicinal plant in China, which derived from the stem bark of Berberis dictyophylla F., has the function of clearing heat and decreasing mKhris-pa. And it traditionally is utilized to treat the diabetes mellitus and its complications, such as diabetic retinopathy (DR). However, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear.The purpose of this study aimed to explore the microvascular protection of water extract of XBP against the spontaneous retinal damage of db/db mice. Meanwhile, the underlying mechanisms of XBP on angiogenesis and apoptosis were further interpreted.We firstly used high-performance liquid chromatography to detected the representative chemical ingredients in the water extract of XBP. The DR model of db/db mice was then randomly divided into five groups: model group, calcium dobesilate (0.23 g/kg) group, and the water extract of XBP (0.375, 0.75 and 1.5 g/kg, respectively) groups. After 8 weeks of continuous administration, the parameters including body weight, fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance test and insulin tolerance test were measured. The pathological changes and abnormal angiogenesis of the retina were detected by optical coherence tomography, HE, periodic acid-Schiff staining and transmission electron microscopy. Simultaneously, molecular docking was used to predict the potential connections between representative ingredients in XBP and angiogenesis/apoptosis-related proteins. The level of angiogenesis-related proteins and gene hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), vascular endothelial growth (VEGF), delta-like ligand 4 (DLL-4) and Notch-1 were estimated by immunofluorescence analyses and real time-PCR. Further, TUNEL staining and immunofluorescence analyses were performed to investigate the apoptotic phenomenon and the expression of Bax, Bcl-2, Apaf-1, Cyto-c and cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-9 in the retina.Phytochemical analysis revealed that magnoflorine, jatrorrhizine, palmatine and berberine were principally representative ingredients in XBP. The results demonstrated that XBP effectively increased glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, whereas no effect on body weight of DR mice. Moreover, retinal thickening, pathological and retinal ultrastructure changes in DR mice were evidently ameliorated by XBP. The molecular docking results demonstrated that the main components of XBP and the protein of angiogenesis and apoptosis had a potential bind. XBP restrained the gene and protein levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, DLL-4 and Notch-1 in retina. Additionally, the TUNEL-positive cell rate and the down-regulated proteins of Bax, Apaf-1, Cyto-c, cleaved Caspase-3 and cleaved Caspase 9 and increased Bcl-2 level were revised by XBP.To sum up, the results suggested that XBP against DR could attribute to alleviating angiogenesis and apoptosis by suppressing the HIF-1α/VEGF/DLL-4/Notch-1 pathway. This evidence sheds a new light on the potential mechanisms of XBP in the treatment of DR." @default.
