Inhibitory effect of panaxytriol on BV-2 microglial cell activation

Activated microglia induce brain inflammation and neuronal death. Panaxytriol, ((3R,9R,10R)-Heptadec-1-en-4,6-diyne-3,9,10-triol), is a component of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer extracts and activates the Nrf2-ARE signaling pathway. However, little is known about its effects on activated microglia in the brain. In this study, we investigated the effect of panaxytriol on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activated microglia in BV-2 cells. Panaxytriol...
