[Study on drug properties of Arisaematis Rhizoma and Arisaema Cum Bile based on substance and energy metabolism in normal and cold/heat syndrome model rats].

This paper clarified the scientific connotation of the changes in cold and heat properties of Arisaematis Rhizoma and Arisaema Cum Bile through investigating the changes of substance and energy metabolism after drug intervention in the rats with normal and cold/heat syndrome, so as to improve the method of evaluating the drug properties of Chinese medicine. After one week of adaptive feeding, healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into three parts: normal rats, heat syndrome rat models, and cold syndrome rat models. Through ice water bath and oral euthyrox(120 µg·kg~(-1)), the models of cold syndrome and heat syndrome were induced, respectively. The models were made at 9:00 am. and administrated by gavage at 3:00 pm. every day. All administration groups were administrated with Arisaematis Rhizoma and Arisaema Cum Bile decoction, respectively, and the blank group was given the same dose of normal saline. After continuous administration for 15 d, the rats were anesthetized by chloral hydrate, blood was taken from abdominal aorta, and the hearts and livers were removed and stored at-80 ℃. The changes in the body weight and anal temperature of rats during administration were detected, and the liver coefficient of rats was detected after removing the liver. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was adopted to detect the expression level of the indexes related to substance and energy metabolism in liver and heart of rat, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of key proteins in AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway for further verification. The results showed that Arisaematis Rhizoma enhanced the expression level of enzymes related to substance and energy metabolism in the normal and cold and heat syndrome rat models, and increased anal temperature, which exhibited warm(hot) drug property. Arisaema Cum Bile inhibited the level of substance and energy metabolism in rats, and reduced anal temperature, which showed cold(cool) drug property. Chinese Pharmacopoeia has recorded "Arisaematis Rhizoma has warm property and Arisaema Cum Bile has cool property", which is consistent with the phenomenon in this study. Therefore, it is feasible to evaluate the drug properties of Chinese medicine based on the substance and energy metabolism of normal and cold/heat syndrome model rats, which completes the method of evaluating drug properties of Chinese medicine.

Discovery of Active Ingredients Targeted TREM2 by SPR Biosensor-UPLC/MS Recognition System, and Investigating the Mechanism of Anti-Neuroinflammatory Activity on the Lignin-Amides from Datura metel Seeds.

As a new target protein for Alzheimer's disease (AD), the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid Cells 2 (TREM2) was expressed on the surface of microglia, which was shown to regulate neuroinflammation, be associated with a variety of neuropathologic, and regarded as a potential indicator for monitoring AD. In this study, a novel recognition system based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for the TREM2 target spot was established coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS), in order to screen the active ingredients targeting TREM2 from Datura metel seeds. The results showed that four lignan-amides were discovered as candidate compounds by SPR biosensor-UPLC/MS recognition analysis. According to the guidance of the active ingredients discovered by the system, the lignin-amides from Datura metel seeds (LDS) were preliminarily identified as containing 27 lignan-amides, which were enriched compositions by the HP-20 of Datura metel seeds. Meanwhile, the anti-inflammatory activity of LDS was evaluated in BV2 microglia induced by LPS. Our experimental results demonstrated that LDS could reduce NO release in LPS-treated BV2 microglia cells and significantly reduce the expression of the proteins of inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), microtubule-associated protein tau (Tau), and ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA-1). Accordingly, LDS might increase the expression of TREM2/DNAX-activating protein of 12 kDa (DAP12) and suppress the Toll-like receptor SX4 (TLR4) pathway and Recombinant NLR Family, Pyrin Domain Containing Protein 3 (NLRP3)/cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (Caspase-1) inflammasome expression by LDS in LPS-induced BV2 microglial cells. Then, the inhibitory release of inflammatory factors Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1ß), Interleukin 6 (IL-6), and Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) inflammatory cytokines were detected to inhibit neuroinflammatory responses. The present results propose that LDS has potential as an anti-neuroinflammatory agent against microglia-mediated neuroinflammatory disorders.

Fifteen constituents, including one new lignan (schisandroside E) and one new terpenoid (schisandenoid A) as well as nine known lignans and four known terpenoids, were isolated from Schisandra chinensis leaves. The structures of schisandroside E and schisandenoid A were established by entirely meticulous spectroscopic analysis (NMR, MS, CD, IR and UV). All compounds were tested for cytotoxicity against MGC-803, Caco-2 and Ishikawa cell lines. Some compounds showed strong cytotoxicity against these three cancer cell lines with IC50 <1 µm.

UPLC-MS/MS Identification and Quantification of Withanolides from Six Parts of the Medicinal Plant Datura Metel L.

Withanolides from six parts (flower, leaf, stem, root, seed, and peel) of Datura metel L. (D metel L.) obtained from ten production areas in China were identified and quantified by UPLC-MS/MS. A total of 85 withanolides were characterized for the first time using the UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS system. Additionally, a simultaneous, rapid and accurate measurement method was developed for the determination of 22 bioactive withanolides from ten production areas with the UPLC-Q-TRAP-MS/MS system. The results show the total withanolide content is highest in the leaves (155640.0 ng/g) and lowest in the roots (14839.8 ng/g). Compared with other production areas, the total content of plants from Dujiangyan was the highest at 82013.9 ng/g (value range of ten areas: 82013.9-42278.5 ng/g). The results also show significant differences in the distribution of withanolides in the different plant parts, as well as across different production areas. This is a breakthrough report providing a simultaneous qualitative and quantitative analysis of 22 withanolides in D. metel L. It could be the basis for the more rational use of various parts of D. metel L., and the expansion of medicinal resources. This work also lays a solid foundation for research on the quality control of D. metel L.

Compound 2-17 were isolated from the genus Xanthium for the first time. Compound 1 were isolated form Xanthii Fructus for the first time.

Bioreduction of Chromate in a Methane-Based Membrane Biofilm Reactor.

For the first time, we demonstrate chromate (Cr(VI)) bioreduction using methane (CH4) as the sole electron donor in a membrane biofilm reactor (MBfR). The experiments were divided into five stages lasting a total of 90 days, and each stage achieved a steady state for at least 15 days. Due to continued acclimation of the microbial community, the Cr(VI)-reducing capacity of the biofilm kept increasing. Cr(VI) removal at the end of the 90-day test reached 95% at an influent Cr(VI) concentration of 3 mg Cr/L and a surface loading of 0.37g of Cr m(-2) day(-1). Meiothermus (Deinococci), a potential Cr(VI)-reducing bacterium, was negligible in the inoculum but dominated the MBfR biofilm after Cr(VI) was added to the reactor, while Methylosinus, a type II methanotrophs, represented 11%-21% of the total bacterial DNA in the biofilm. Synergy within a microbial consortia likely was responsible for Cr(VI) reduction based on CH4 oxidation. In the synergy, methanotrophs fermented CH4 to produce metabolic intermediates that were used by the Cr(VI)-reducing bacteria as electron donors. Solid Cr(III) was the main product, accounting for more than 88% of the reduced Cr in most cases. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDS) analysis showed that Cr(III) accumulated inside and outside of some bacterial cells, implying that different Cr(VI)-reducing mechanisms were involved.

Highly selective and efficient biotransformation of linarin to produce tilianin by naringinase.

OBJECTIVES: To develop a practical method to prepare tilianin by highly selective and efficient hydrolysis of the C-7 rhamnosyl group from linarin. RESULTS: Naringinase was utilized to selectively catalyze the formation of tilianin using linarin as the starting material. The reaction conditions, including temperature, pH, metal ions, substrate concentration and enzyme concentration, were optimized. At 60 °C, naringinase showed enhanced α-L-rhamnosidase activity while the ß-D-glucosidase activity was abrogated. The addition of Mg(2+), Fe(2+) and Co(2+) was also beneficial for selective biotransformation of linarin to tilianin. Under the optimized conditions (pH 7.0 at 60 °C), linarin could be nearly completely transformed to tilianin with excellent selectivity (>98.9 %), while that of the by-product acacetin was less than 1.1 %. In addition, the structure of target product tilianin was fully characterized by HR-MS and (1)H-NMR. CONCLUSION: A highly selective and efficient biotransformation of linarin to tilianin was developed by the proper control of incubation temperature, which enhanced the α-L-rhamnosidase activity of naringinase and blocked its ß-D-glucosidase activity.

Blockade of emodin on amyloid-ß 25-35-induced neurotoxicity in AßPP/PS1 mice and PC12 cells through activation of the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Beclin-1/B-cell lymphoma 2 pathway.

Autophagy plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, the blockade mechanism of emodin on amyloid-ß 25-35-induced neurotoxicity was explored. Cell viability of PC12 cells was evaluated by the MTT assay and neuro damage by the lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay. Gene silencing by small interfering RNA, cDNA constructs and transfection, as well as Western blot were performed to assess protein expression levels. AßPP/PS1 mice were administered orally with emodin (50 mg/kg/day), and LC3-II positive cells in their brain cortex sections were detected by immunohistochemical staining. Emodin could significantly inhibit the LC3-I/LC3-II conversion ratio and cell viability while decreasing the lactate dehydrogenase level in AßPP/PS1 mice and PC12 cells. LC3II positive cells in the cortex were decreased significantly by the treatment with both emodin and 3-methyladenine. Furthermore, emodin and 3-methyladenine could increase B-cell lymphoma 2 while decreasing Beclin-1 and hVps34 expressions, which were induced by amyloid-ß 25-35. Small interfering gene silencing Beclin-1 and B-cell lymphoma 2 confirmed this signaling pathway. We also found that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 could block LC3-I/LC3-II conversion and increase B-cell lymphoma 2 while decreasing hVps34 and Beclin-1 expressions. The results suggest that the blockade of emodin on amyloid-ß 25-35-induced autophagy may occur via the activation of the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Beclin-1/B-cell lymphoma 2 pathway. Our results provide confirmatory evidence for the application of emodin in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

A study on inhibition of inflammation via p75TNFR signaling pathway activation in mice with traumatic brain injury.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of and mechanisms underlying the activation of the p75 tumor necrosis factor receptor (p75TNFR) signaling pathway in inflammatory responses in mice with traumatic brain injury. METHODS: We first generated hybridomas that produced antibodies specific for p75TNFR, by inoculating BALB/c mice with antigenic peptides derived from mouse p75TNFR, which is critical to the binding of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and p75TNFR. The isotype, epitope, titer, specificity, and affinity constant of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were determined using commercial kits and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We then screened the agonist antibody via L929 cytotoxicity assay. The levels of inflammatory factors were detected in C57BL/6 mice with traumatic brain injury and then the mice were injected with either saline (control) or p75TNFR agonist mAb. Furthermore, we investigated the effects of p75TNFR agonist mAb on p38MAPK and nuclear factor-κB signals. RESULTS: Seven mAbs against p75TNFR were generated. Among them, the mAb D8F2 could markedly enhance the cytotoxicity of TNF-α on L929 cells. In a traumatic brain injury model, D8F2 could inhibit the levels of inflammatory factors and downregulate RNA transcription of these factors by suppressing the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and nuclear factor-κB. CONCLUSION: The mAb D8F2 could inhibit posttraumatic inflammatory responses effectively. In this study, we developed an agonist anti-mouse p75TNFR mAb, which may be used in the future to devise new strategies for the clinical treatment of inflammation after trauma.

Potential Plausible Role of Stem Cell for Treating Depressive Disorder: a Retrospective Review.

Depression poses a significant threat to global physical and mental health, impacting around 3.8% of the population with a rising incidence. Current treatment options primarily involve medication and psychological support, yet their effectiveness remains limited, contributing to high relapse rates. There is an urgent need for innovative and more efficacious treatment modalities. Stem cell therapy, a promising avenue in regenerative medicine for a spectrum of neurodegenerative conditions, has recently garnered attention for its potential application in depression. While much of this work remains preclinical, it has demonstrated considerable promise. Identified mechanisms underlying the antidepressant effects of stem cell therapy encompass the stimulation of neurotrophic factors, immune function modulation, and augmented monoamine levels. Nonetheless, these pathways and other undiscovered mechanisms necessitate further investigation. Depression fundamentally manifests as a neurodegenerative disorder. Given stem cell therapy's success in addressing a range of neurodegenerative pathologies, it opens the door to explore its application in depression treatment. This exploration may include repairing damaged nerves directly or indirectly and inhibiting neurotoxicity. Nevertheless, significant challenges must be overcome before stem cell therapies can be applied clinically. Successful resolution of these issues will ultimately determine the feasibility of incorporating stem cell therapies into the clinical landscape. This narrative review provides insights into the progress of research, potential avenues for exploration, and the prevailing challenges in the implementation of stem cell therapy for treatment of depression.

Seizure-free after surgery in a patient with non-lesional startle epilepsy: a case report.

We present the case of a patient with startle epilepsy provoked by auditory, somatosensory and visual stimuli during video-electrocorticography (ECoG) recording. Ictal ECoG of all types of seizures triggered by the three kinds of stimuli showed that seizure onset originated from the left supplementary sensorimotor area (SSMA). The patient has been seizure-free after the cortex around the left SSMA only had been resected. Therefore, we speculate that left SSMA is the epileptogenic zone of startle epilepsy in this patient and perhaps the primary cortex to modulate the startle reflex in healthy persons.

Application of metabolomics and network analysis to reveal the ameliorating effect of four typical "hot" property herbs on hypothyroidism rats.

Herbs with a "hot" properties are frequently used to treat cold symptoms in TCM. However, the underlying mechanisms of the herbs with "hot" properties on hypothyroidism have not been investigated. This study aimed to explore four typical "hot" and "cold" property herb on hypothyroidism. Firstly, the difference efficacy between the four typical "hot" property herbs and the four typical "cold" property herbs was assessed by physical signs, thyroid function, and the metabolic profile using multivariate statistical analysis. The influence of the four typical "hot" property herbs on hypothyroidism was validated pathologically. The impact mechanism of the four typical "hot" property herbs on hypothyroidism was investigated through a metabolomics method combined with network analysis. Na+/K+-ATP, ACC1 enzyme, UCP-1, and the PI3K-Akt pathway were used to confirm the metabolite pathways and target-associated metabolites. The results showed that the four typical "hot" property herbs could significantly improve physical signs, thyroid function, and the metabolic profile in hypothyroidism rats, the four typical "cold" property herbs did not show any benefit. Moreover, the four typical "hot" property herbs could improve lipid metabolism, energy metabolism, and thyroid hormone levels by the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Ca2+- AMPK signaling pathways, purine metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism. Additionally, the levels of UCP-1, Na+/K + -ATP enzyme, and ACC1 were ameliorated by the four typical "hot" property herbs in hypothyroidism rats. Therefore, a metabolomics strategy combined with network analysis was successfully performed and interpreted the mechanism of the four typical "hot" property herbs on hypothyroidism based on the theory of "cold and hot" properties of TCM well.

Chemical constituent from the roots of Solanum melongena L. and their potential anti-inflammatory activity.

Three new compounds (1-3), were isolated from the ethanol extract of the roots of Solanum melongena L., together with twenty-seven knowns (4-30). On basis of their 1 D and 2 D NMR data, the chemical structures of islated compounds were elucidated combined with HR-MS and the relative values in literatures. In addition, the isolations were evaluated for the potential anti-inflammatory activity, by virtue of RAW 264.7 cells model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)in vitro inhibitory activities on nitric oxide (NO) production. Compounds 12 and 21 showed moderate inhibition of NO production with IC50 values of 32.8 and 20.2 µM, respectively.

Cattle Bile Arisaema Aqueous Extracts Protect Against Febrile Seizures in Rats Through Regulating Neurotransmitters and Suppressing Neuroinflammation.

Cattle bile Arisaema (CBA) is a traditional medicine used for the treatment of febrile seizures (FS) for thousands of years in China. However, its application is greatly limited due to cost reasons, and pig bile Arisaema (PBA) is the main commercial product instead. Additionally, the underlying mechanism of CBA for the treatment of FS still remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the anti-convulsant effect and potential mechanism of the CBA aqueous extract for the first time through a hot-water bath-induced FS rat model. Our results showed that pre-treatment with CBA dramatically lowered the incidence rate and generation times and prolonged the latency of FS. In addition, CBA effectively ameliorated neuronal damage and regulated neurotransmitter disorder induced by FS in the rat hippocampus. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, western blotting, immunohistochemical, and qRT-PCR results exhibited that CBA suppressed the expression of GFAP, TLR4, NF-κB, HMGB1, NLRP3, TNF-α, IL-1ß, and IL-6 and consequently inhibited the neuroinflammation induced by FS. Interestingly, although the CBA and PBA aqueous extracts possessed the same trend on the changes caused by FS, the improvement of FS by CBA is markedly better than that by PBA. These findings indicate that CBA exerts a protective effect on febrile seizures through regulating neurotransmitter disorder and suppressing neuroinflammation.
