Objective To investigate the regulating effect and mechanism of Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu Formulation (ZGF) on linkage damage of hippocampal neurovascular unit (NVU) in diabetes-related depression. Methods Hippocampal neurons,astrocytes and brain microvascular endothelial cells from SD rats were primitively isolated,purified and cultured,and immunofluorescence staining was used to identify cells. The DD model of hippocampal NVU was established with high dose of glucose and cortisone after hippocampal NVU co-culture system was built by Transwell in...
