Salvianolic acid B promotes neural differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells via PI3K/AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway.
Neuroscience Letters 2018 April 4
Salvianolic acid B (Sal B), a water-soluble component mainly extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Salvia miltiorrhiza, has potential anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic actions to protect neural cells. Here, we explore the effects and mechanisms of Sal B on the promotion of differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into neural stem cells (NSCs), then further into neurons. During the processes of neural differentiation of iPSCs, Sal B or a phosphatidylinositide 3 kinase (PI3K) inhibitor (LY294002) were added to the medium. Sal B substantially improved proliferation of iPSC-derived NSCs and neurons. Furthermore, Sal B significantly stimulated PI3K/AKT/GSK3 β/β-catenin pathway. However, LY294002 attenuated the Sal B-induced increase. Therefore, these outcomes suggest that Sal B markedly enhances neural differentiation of iPSCs via the PI3K/AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway.
