The Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine. In recent years, many studies have revealed its prominent neuroprotection function. The active ingredients in Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis could protect the nervous system in a multi-path and multi-target manner. Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis shows the neuroprotective effect by resisting oxidation, scavenging free radicals, modulating neurotransmitters and their related receptors, regulating the inflammatory factors and their related pathways, attenuating neuron apoptosis, reducing intracellular Ca2+ overloads and mitigating neurodegeneration. In this paper, the authors summarized the advance in studies on neuroprotective mechanisms of Uncariae Ramulus Cum Uncis.

A rapid and sensitive enrichment technique, field enhanced sample injection-dynamic pH junction-sweeping (FESI-DypH-sweeping) was successfully developed for the simultaneous separation and concentration of alkaloids and stereoisomers of Uncariae ramulus cum uncis (UR) by cyclodextrin electrokinetic chromatography (CDEKC) with diode array detection system. The sample was prepared in a low-conductivity (FESI), low-pH (DypH) sample matrix (4 mM phosphate buffer, 3% methanol, pH=3), and the background electrolyte (BGE) consisted of a high-conductivity, high-pH buffer (40 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, 8 mg/mL carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin, and 30% methanol).
