Effects of AuNPs mycosynthesized by HAE of H. erinaceus on the neurite outgrowth on PC-12 cells.

Notes: The percentage of neurite-bearing cells of PC-12 cells treated with various concentrations of AuNPs ranged from 200 to 2,000 ng/mL. Cells in complete F-12 K medium without AuNPs served as a negative control. Cells treated with 50 ng/mL of NGF or 50 μg/mL extract of aqueous extract of H. erinaceus served as positive controls. Data were expressed as means ± standard deviation of three experiments. *Significant difference (P<0.05).

Abbreviations: AuNPs, gold nanoparticles; NGF, nerve growth factor; NEG, negative control; H. erinaceus, Hericium erinaceus; HAE, hot aqueous extract.
