Serum lipidomics study reveals protective effects of Rhodiola crenulata extract on Alzheimer’s disease rats

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Rhodiola crenulata extract (RCE) has shown its protective effects on AD, however, the underlying mechanism is still unclear. In this work, serum lipidomics was conducted to reveal the action mechanism of RCE on AD by HPLC coupled with Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS). The animal model of AD was reproduced by intrahippocampal...
