Objective: To determine berberine chloride in mouse plasma for the investigation of the bioavailability of Lianxiang microemulsion in mouse.
Methods: After single dose ig administration,the plasma samples were taken at different time,respectively, for the determination of berberine chloride by HPLC; And the relative bioavailability of Lianxiang microemulsion vs Lianxiang emulsion (reference formulation) was calculated.
Results: Berberine chloride was separated well from endogenous foreign substances. The calibration curve of berberine chloride was liner over the range of 10.4-156 microg/L (r = 0.9991) and the method recovery was within 89.6%-94.7%. The intraday RSD or the inter-day RSD < or = 12.9%. After single dose,the AUC0-->24h of the microemulsion and the emulsion were (688.3 +/- 123.7) and (371.4 +/- 68.4) microg x h/L,respectively; And the relative bioavailability of the microemulsion vs the emulsion was (193.1 +/- 63.2)%.
Conclusion: The validated HPLC method is suitable for the determination of berberine chloride in mouse plasma; And microemulsification can clearly promote the bioavailability in mouse of berberine chloride in Lianxiang prescription.

Berberine (BBR), an isoquinoline alkaloid abundant in Coptis chinensis, exhibits anti-tumor and hypoglycemic properties. The regulation of tumor cell homeostasis and metabolism is greatly influenced by Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). This research aims to elucidate whether BBR inhibits the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by modulating HIF-1α expression.

Glycation and aggregation of proteins have garnered more interest in recent years. Glycation leads to the formation of protein aggregates and advanced glycation ends (AGEs) that play crucial roles within several pathological conditions. The objective of our study is to gain a deeper understanding of the formation of AGEs and aggregates of human serum albumin (HSA) in the presence of methylglyoxal and the protective effects of the phytochemical berberine.

The fluorescence quantum yield of berberine in aqueous solution is significantly smaller than those of organic solution. The time profile of fluorescence intensity of berberine was analyzed by a bi-exponential function, showing that two kinds of states of berberine exist in the solutions. The observed fluorescence lifetime of shorter lifetime species of berberine in water (0.

The determination of isoquinoline alkaloids (IQAs) is crucial for maximizing the pharmacological benefits of Rhizoma coptidis (RC). In this study, the dendritic silica sphere (dSiO) was covalently modified with cyanuric chloride (CNCl) to synthesize a porous dNSiO-CNCl NP. The fluorescence of berberine (Ber), palmatine (Pal), coptisine (Cop), and jatrorrhizine (Jat) was remarkably enhanced by dNSiO-CNCl NP for at least 38-fold, inspiring the accurate determination of the isoquinoline total alkaloids (IQTAs) in RC using fluorometry.
