(a) Gene expression analysis of three important neurotrophic factors (BDNF, CDNF, and GDNF) by qRT-PCR. The RSC96 SCs were cultured with different doses of salidroside (control: 0 mM, S-1: 0.1 mM, S-2: 0.2 mM, S-3: 0.4 mM) or NGF for 2, 4, and 6 days. The gene expression levels were analyzed by the method using GAPDH as the internal control. (b) Western Blot assay of BDNF, CDNF, and GDNF proteins and quantification of the proteins expression after 6 days. The data represent the mean of three independent experiments ± SD. , , and compared with the control; , , and compared with the positive control (NGF).
