Synthesis and biological evaluation of two salidroside analogues in the PC12 cell model exposed to hypoglycemia and serum limitation

摘要

Salidroside is a phenylpropanoid glycoside isolated from Rhodiola rosea L., a traditional Chinese medicinal plant, and has displayed a broad spectrum of pharmacological properties. In this paper, two analogues were prepared with the glucosamine and N-acetylglucosamine as glycosyl donor, 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl) ethanol as glycosyl acceptor. The effects of them over PC12 cell model exposed to hypoglycemia and serum limitation were assessed with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, Flow Cytometry and Western blot analysis.
