Abstract:
To explore the effect of Ruiqi pill on neuronal calcium level of cerebral cortex in brain of rat embryos.Methods: The cerebral cortex of rat embryos pregnanted for 16-17 days were dissected.The neural cells were divided into Ruiqi pill group and control group randomly after 4-5 days in vitro culture.Effect of Ruiqi pill on neuronal calcium level of primary culture of cortical neurons in rat embryos was measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy.Results:Ruiqi pill could reduce neuronal calcium concentration,no change was found in the control group.Conclusion: Ruiqi pill reduced neuronal calcium concentration,which might be one of the mechanisms of Ruiqi pill in improving memory function.
