Investigation of Transdermal Constituents and Molecular Mechanism of Euodiae Fructus in Treatment of Diarrhea by Transdermal Drug Delivery Based on Integrated Pharmacology and UPLC-Q-TOF-MS / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:To identify the transdermal constituents of Euodiae Fructus and predict its molecular mechanism in treating diarrhea by transdermal drug delivery. Method:Ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） and integrated pharmacology methods were used. The rapid identification of transdermal constituents of Euodiae Fructus was realized by the means of comparison of reference substances， analysis of UNIFI system and mass spectrometry. On this basis， Integrative Pharmacology-based Research Platform of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCMIP） v2.0， SymMap， DisGeNET databases and literature were used to collected potential targets of transdermal constituents of Euodiae Fructus and targets for diarrhea-related diseases. The disease targets and drug targets were topologically analyzed to obtain the core targets， which were used for the Gene Ontology （GO） function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis. Finally， Cytoscape 3.6.0 was used to build up a network of transdermal constituents-core targets-key pathways. Result:A total of 19 chemical constituents were speculatively identified from Euodiae Fructus extract， including quinolone alkaloids， limonins， indole alkaloids， organic acids and sterols. A total of 174 core targets of Euodiae Fructus for treating diarrhea were obtained by a topology analysis， signaling pathways of inflammatory response， cell proliferation， nutrient regulation and energy metabolism， signal transduction， bacterial infection were obtained through the analysis of KEGG enrichment. Conclusion:In this study， the transdermal constituents of Euodiae Fructus are identified for the first time， they can participate in the regulation of intestinal inflammation， maintain the integrity of intestinal mucosa， repaire and adjust the metabolism of the body by acting on Rac protein family， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase， cytochrome P450 enzymes and aldo-keto reductase， respectively. In general， the molecular mechanism of Euodiae Fructus in the treatment of diarrhea is preliminarily elucidated.

Summarize drug dosage forms in treatment of age-related macular degeneration disease / 中国中药杂志

In this review, the authors summarized the drugs in treatment of the age-related macular degeneration (AMD or ARMD), including the pathogenesis of the age-related macular degeneration at home and abroad, dosage forms used in the treatment, and the drugs research and development directions in the future. AMD disease is the third largest blinding diseases all over the world, with an incidence of 6.62%. The dosage form of the traditional medicine is mostly oral formulations, playing a role in body, while the newly dosage form is topical drug delivery formulation. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has certain advantages in the treatment of AMD disease and the development of topical drug delivery preparations with newly preparation technologies would have a very bright prospect in the future.
