the chance of regulating glucose and lipid metabolism in cancer cells showing more potential than ever. [2]
Berberine hydrochloride is an alkaloid with little or no fluorescence in water,in sodium dodecylsulfate solutions, the fluorescence intensity of this compound is enhanced several folds by ion-pairing with the anion of the surfactant. [3]
Berberine hydrochloride can significantly attenuate neutrophil infiltration, suppress myeloperoxidase activity, decrease NO, TNF-αand IL-1βproduction, inhibits the phosphorylation of the NF-κB p65 subunit and the degradation of its inhibitor, IκBα, thus, exerts potent anti-inflammatory effects on LPS-induced mouse endometritis and may be a potential therapeutic agent for endometritis.[4]
