Kadsura belongs to the Schisandroideae subfamily of Magnoliaceae. Plants from genus Kadsura are widely distributed in the South and Southwest of China. The plants of the genus are widely used as folk medicine for a long time in history, with the functions of relieving pain, promoting 'qi' circulation, activating blood resolve stasis, and applications in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and gastroenteric disorders. Lignans are the primary characteristic constituents with various biological activities of plants from genus Kadsura. This paper summarized 81 lignans isolated from the plants of genus Kadsura over the past eight years (from 2014 to 2021), which belong to five types: dibenzocyclooctadienes, spirobenzofuranoid dibenzocyclooctadienes, aryltetralins, diarylbutanes and tetrahydrofurans. Each type of these lignans possess typical characteristics in proton magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR) spectra, the NMR regularities of these types of lingans were summarized, which provided a useful reference for the structural analysis of lignans. The relationships between lignans and pharmacodynamics were also systematically analyzed, lignans were predicted to be the quality markers (Q-marker) of Kadsura genus.
RESUMO
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Kadsura heteroclita stem (KHS) is a well-known hepatoprotective Tujia ethnomedicine (folk named Xuetong), has long been used for the prevention and treatment of hepatitis and liver diseases. AIM OF THE STUDY: To explore the protective effects of KHS against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver injury and the underlying mechanism, particularly antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic potentials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The acute toxicity of KHS was measured by the method of maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Liver injury in mice was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 25% carbon tetrachloride (olive oil solubilization) 2 times every week. After modeling, mice in KHS groups were treated with KHS at 100, 200, 400 mg/kg/d, mice in positive control group were treated with bifendate (30 mg/kg/d), and mice in normal and model groups were given ultrapure water. After 4 weeks of treatment, blood of mice was taken from the orbital venous plexus before mice euthanized, the liver, spleen, and thymus of mice were weighed by dissecting the abdominal cavity after mice euthanized. Moreover, the liver of mice was selected for histological examination. The alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities in mice serum were measured using the automatic biochemical analyzer. The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), myeloperoxidase (MPO), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GPX-2), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), Bcl-2-associated X (Bax), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Caspase-3, and Caspase-8 in mice liver were measured by Elisa kits. Furthermore, the protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in mice liver tissue was detected by Western blot. RESULTS: The MTD of KHS was determined to be 26 g/kg in both sexes of mice. Treatment with KHS dose-dependently protected the liver and other main organs against CCl4-induced liver injury in mice. The ALT and AST levels in mice liver were significantly reduced after treatment with KHS at the dose of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg. In addition, the liver histopathological analyses revealed that KHS markedly alleviated inflammatory cell infiltration, hepatic fibrosis, hepatocyte ballooning, necrosis and severe apoptosis of hepatocytes induced by CCl4. Further assay indicated that KHS significantly suppressed the production of MDA and MPO, while markedly increased the level of SOD and GPx-2. The TNF-α and IL-6 level in mice liver tissue were decreased by KHS, whereas the IL-10 level was increased. KHS also inhibited hepatocyte apoptosis by significantly reducing the expression of Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, as well as increasing the expression of Bcl-2. Besides, the Western blot results strongly demonstrated that KHS inhibited hepatocyte apoptosis, as evidenced by reducing the expression of Bax protein and increasing the expression of Bcl-2 protein in liver injury tissues. CONCLUSIONS: This research firstly clarified that KHS has a significant protective effect against CCl4-induced liver injury, which might be closely related to alleviating oxidative stress, reducing inflammatory response, and inhibiting hepatocyte apoptosis.

Cerebral infarction (CI) is one of the most common cerebrovascular diseases and remains a major health problem worldwide. In this study, we evaluated the potential diagnostic biomarkers and important relevant metabolic pathways associated with CI. Metabolomics based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry coupled with the multivariate pattern recognition technique were used to characterize the potential serum metabolic profiles of CI. Forty healthy controls and thirty-three cerebral infarction patients were recruited for the nontargeted global metabolites' study and subsequent targeted fatty acid analysis. Overall, thirty-four endogenous metabolites were found in serum from the untargeted global study, four of which were detected to be significantly different between the CI group and healthy controls, including l-lysine, octadecanoic acid (fatty acid), l-tyrosine and lactic acid. Additionally, fourteen free fatty acids were identified by the subsequent targeted fatty acid analysis, and seven of them were detected to be significantly different between the CI group and healthy controls, which were mainly associated with arachidonic acid metabolism and fatty acid metabolism. Our results suggest several potential diagnostic biomarkers, and serum metabolism research is demonstrated as a powerful tool to explore the pathogenesis of CI.

Cucurbitaceae wilt of different hosts could be caused by Fusarium oxysporum. To clear the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationship of F. oxysporum isolates from different Cucurbitaceae hosts and regions, genomic DNA of ninety-five strains of F. oxysporum isolated from different hosts and different regions were amplified by sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) molecular markers. All strains could be uniquely distinguished with 238 polymorphism bands which generated 100% of polymorphic ratio with 19 selective primer pairs. On average, each primer pairs amplified 12.5 loci and 12.5 polymorphic loci. A total of 166 bands of F. oxysporum f. sp. momordicae (FOM) were amplified, among which 145 polymorphic bands generated 87.4% of polymorphic ratio. On average, each primer combination amplified 8.7 loci and 7.7 polymorphic loci. This indicated that genetic variation of F. oxysporum was extensive. The genetic similarity coefficient of F. oxysporum was 0.68-0.99, and the average indexes of Nei's genetic diversity and Shannon were 0.2390 and 0.3718, respectively. Ninety-five strains of F. oxysporum were divided into four formae speciales from bitter gourd, cucumber, watermelon and melon, when the genetic similarity coefficient was 0.74. In SRAP dendrogram all the FOM isolates were gathered into one phylogenetic branch with the genetic similarity coefficient ranging from 0.78 to 0.99. The average indexes of Nei's genetic diversity and Shannon indices were 0.1811 and 0.2750, respectively. This indicated that genetic diversity of FOM was abundant, and the classification of phylogenetic group was related to geographic origin to some extent.

EGFR is a potential therapeutic target for treating bladder cancer, but has not been approved for clinical use yet. Metformin is a widely used antidiabetic drug and has demonstrated interesting anticancer effects on various cancer models, alone or in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs. The efficacy of gefitinib, a well-known EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, combined with metformin was assessed on bladder cancer and underlying mechanisms were explored. This drug combination induced a strong anti-proliferative and anti-colony forming effect and apoptosis in bladder cancer cell lines. Gefitinib suppressed EGFR signaling and inhibited phosphorylation of ERK and Akt. Metformin amplified this inhibitory effect and enhanced gefitinib-induced activation of AMPK signaling pathway. In vivo intravesical treatment of metformin and gefitinib on syngeneic orthotopic mice confirmed the significant inhibitory effect on bladder tumor growth. These two drugs may be an excellent combination for the treatment of bladder cancer through intravesical instillation.
