Huang-Pu-Tong-Qiao Formula Ameliorates the Hippocampus Apoptosis in Diabetic Cognitive Dysfunction Mice by Activating CREB/BDNF/TrkB Signaling Pathway

Figure 11

Presentation of mechanism for the neuroprotective role of HPTQ in DCD mice model. HPTQ could reduce the release of insulin, activate CREB/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway, and inhibit mitochondria-related apoptosis signals Bax/Bcl-2 and caspase-3 pathway in the brain hippocampus.
