Protective effect of wild ginseng cambial meristematic cells on D-galactosamine-induced hepatotoxicity in rats
Panax ginseng has a wide range of biological activities including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory functions. Wild ginseng cambial meristematic cells (CMCs) were obtained from P. ginseng cambium. This study examined the protective mechanism of wild ginseng CMCs against D-galactosamine (GalN)-induced liver injury. GalN, a well-known hepatotoxicant, causes severe hepatocellular inflammatory damage and clinical features similar to those of human viral hepatitis in experimental animals.

A UPLC/MS-based metabolomics investigation of the protective effect of ginsenosides Rg1 and Rg2 in mice with Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive brain disease, for which there is no effective drug therapy at present. Ginsenoside Rg1 (G-Rg1) and Ginsenoside Rg2 (G-Rg2) have been reported to alleviate memory deterioration. However, the mechanism of their anti-AD effect hasn’t yet been clearly elucidated.
