To address this challenge, strategies aiming to increase the use of telemedicine, smart learning programs and tele-mentoring of surgical procedures, are warranted.BACKGROUND Aging is characterized by progressive deterioration in metabolic and physiological process. The present research assessed the antagonistic effects and mechanisms of Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) on aging of HSCs/HPCs. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were treated and divided into the following groups Control (n=10), Model (n=10, treated with D-galactose, as aging model), Rg1 Control (n=10), Rg1 treatment (n=10), and Rg1 prevention (n=10). An aging rat model was established by subcutaneous injection with D-gal. HSC/HPC cells were stained using SA-ß-Gal staining. HSC/HPC cells were examined using flow cytometry assay. CFU-mix assay, with a few modifications, was performed. Cleaved caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), and Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) were examined using qRT-PCR. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) expression was determined using Western blot assay and qRT-PCR. RESULTS Rg1 (treatment and prevention group) significantly decreased SA-ß-Gal-positive staining in Sca-1⁺ HSC/HPC cells compared to that of the D-gal model (p less then 0.05). Rg1 significantly enhanced formation capacity of CFU-Mix compared to the D-gal model (p less then 0.05) in Sca-1⁺ HSC/HPC cells. Rg1 significantly reduced G0/G1 phase of Sca-1⁺ HSC/HPC cells compared to that of the D-gal model (p less then 0.05). Rg1 significantly decreased cleaved caspase 3 and Bax expression, and increased Bcl-2 expression compared to the D-gal model (p less then 0.05). Rg1 treatment remarkably upregulated expressions of SIRT3 and SOD2 compared to that of the D-gal model group (p less then 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Rg1 conducte
