Project description:Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid isolated from many medicinal herbs such as Coptis chinensis, has a wide range of pharmacological effects. Since xenobiotic drug-induced micoRNAs have recently emerged as key regulators in guiding their pharmacological effects and toxicity, we were interested in whether or not micoRNA expression was differentially altered by berberine treatment in liver. Here, we used miRNA microarray to analyze microRNA expression profiles of primary human hepatocytes after berberine chloride treatment or 0.08% DMSO as control. Comparing gene expression profiles of 40 ï?M berberine-treated primary human hepatocytes to those of control cells sampled after 2, 4, or 8 hours treatment. A 50 mM stock solution of Berberine chloride was prepared in DMSO. Cells were treated with 40 ï?M berberine chloride or 0.08% DMSO as control.

Project description:Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid isolated from many medicinal herbs such as Coptis chinensis, has a wide range of pharmacological effects. Here, we used gene expression microarray to analyze gene expression profiles of HepG2 human hepatoma cell line after berberine chloride treatment or 0.08% DMSO as control. Comparing gene expression profiles of 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine-treated HepG2 human hepatoma cell line to those of control cells sampled after 4 hours treatment. A 50 mM stock solution of Berberine chloride was prepared in DMSO. Cells were treated with 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine chloride or 0.08% DMSO as control.
Project description:Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is an important human and animal pathogen, multiply resistant strains are increasingly widespread, new agents are needed for the treatment of S. aureus. Berberine chloride (BBR), a natural plant product, has potent antimicrobial activity against S. aureus. We employed Affymetrix Staphylococcus aureus GeneChipsTM arrays to investigate the global transcriptional profiling of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923 treated with berberine chloride.

Project description:Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid isolated from many medicinal herbs such as Coptis chinensis, has a wide range of pharmacological effects including anti-cancer effects. Since xenobiotic drug-induced micoRNAs have recently emerged as key regulators in guiding their pharmacological effects and toxicity, we were interested in whether or not micoRNA expression was differentially altered by berberine treatment in HCC. Here, we used miRNA microarray to analyze microRNA expression profiles of HepG2 human hepatoma cell line after berberine chloride treatment or 0.08% DMSO as control. Comparing miRNA profiles of 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine-treated HepG2 human hepatoma cell line to those of control cells sampled after 2 and 4 hours treatment. A 50 mM stock solution of Berberine chloride was prepared in DMSO. Cells were treated with 40 M-BM-5M-BM--M berberine chloride or 0.08% DMSO as control.
