Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of Liuwei Dihuang pills on proliferation and differentiation of rat preadipocytes. Methods Rat preadipocytes were cultured, the influence of Liuwei Dihuang drug-containing serum on proliferation of rat preadipocytes was detected by MTT method, the influence of Liuwei Dihuang drug-containing serum on expression of GPDH was determined by enzyme tissue chemical method, the effect on lipid accumulation was determined by Oil Red O staining. Results Liuwei Dihuang drug-containing serum stimulated rat preadipocyte proliferation, inhibited GPDH up-regulation during differentiation, inhibited lipid accumulation in cell differentiation with the concentration below 10%. Conclusion Liuwei Dihuang pills stimulated rat preadipocyte proliferation, inhibited rat preadipocyte differentiation.
