Figure 2From: Amygdalin isolated from Semen Persicae (Tao Ren) extracts induces the expression of follistatin in HepG2 and C2C12 cell linesSchematic illustration of the bioactivity-guided fractionation procedure for identification of the active compound from S. Persicae extract. The n-butanol extract was separated by semi-preparative RP-HPLC on a C18 column. All of the fractions were analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR for follistatin mRNA induction in HepG2 cells.Back to article page
