Abstract
    [Objective] To study the effects of ginkgo biloba extract on fetal rat cortical neuronal cells under normal and hypoxic cell cultivations. [Methods] Under normal and hypoxic cultivations, test the control and dosing groups separately, for the cell activity values, and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and Malondialdegyde (MDA) values in the cellular supernatant. [Results] Under normal cell cultivation, the cell activity values of the dosing group were higher than those of the control group; the differences were statistically significant. The LDH values of the dosing group were lower than those of the control group; the differences were statistically significant. The SOD and MDA values of the dosing group were different from those of the control group; the differences were not statistically meaningful. Under hypoxic cell cultivation, the cell activity values of the dosing group were higher than those of the control group; the differences were statistically significant. The LDH values of the dosing group were higher than those of the control group; the differences were statistically significant. The SOD and MDA values of the dosing group were higher than those of the control group; the differences were statistically significant. [Conclusion] Under normal cell cultivation, the ginkgo biloba extract can stimulate the cortical neuronal cells' growth, reduce cell membrane damage, and has no notable effects on cellular oxidation resistance. Under hypoxic cell cultivation, the ginkgo biloba extract can stimulate the cortical neuronal cells' growth, increase cell membrane damage, and increase cellular oxidation resistance.
