RESUMO
Bladder cancer (BC) is a common and malignant tumor of the urinary tract, and its treatment options are limited. Tectoridin (TEC) has antitumor activity against prostate and colon cancer, but its effects on BC are poorly understood. BC cells were treated with increasing concentrations of TEC, and its effects on cell proliferation, migration, invasiveness, and apoptosis were assessed. Xenograft mouse model was used to evaluate the influences of TEC on BC tumor growth. Western blot analysis was conducted to explore the downstream pathways affected by TEC. TEC treatment decreased BC cell viability in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 ≈ 25 µM), and inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasiveness while promoting apoptosis. Clinical analysis revealed high expression of RAB27B in BC tumor tissues, particularly in advanced stages, correlating with an unfavorable prognosis. In vitro experiments demonstrated that TEC suppressed the PI3K/MAPK pathway by targeting RAB27B, and overexpression of RAB27B counteracted the antitumor effects of TEC. In xenograft models, TEC administration suppressed tumor growth, reduced tumor volume, inhibited cell proliferation, and suppressed the PI3K/MAPK pathway, highlighting its potential as an inhibitor of tumor growth. TEC suppresses BC tumor growth by targeting RAB27B and inactivating the PI3K/MAPK signaling and may provide a promising therapeutic target for BC treatment.

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas with a high mortality rate. Macrophages play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of pancreatitis. Tectoridin (Tec) is a highly active isoflavone with anti-inflammatory pharmacological activity. However, the role of Tec in the SAP process is not known. The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect and potential mechanism of Tec on SAP. To establish SAP mice by intraperitoneal injection of caerulein and Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the role of Tec in the course of SAP was investigated based on histopathology, biochemical indicators of amylase and lipase and inflammatory factors. The relationship between Tec and macrophage polarization was verified by immunofluorescence, real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis. We then further predicted the possible targets and signal pathways of action of Tec by network pharmacology and molecular docking, and validated them by in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we demonstrated that Tec significantly reduced pancreatic injury in SAP mice, and decreased serum levels of amylase and lipase. The immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis showed that Tec promoted macrophage M2 polarization. Network pharmacology and molecular docking predicted that Tec may target ERK2 for the treatment of SAP, and in vivo and in vitro experiments proved that Tec inhibited the ERK MAPK signal pathway. In summary, Tec can target ERK2, promote macrophage M2 polarization and attenuate pancreatic injury, Tec may be a potential drug for the treatment of SAP.

RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the decoction of isoflavone content and its acid hydrolysis conversion rate in the flower of Pueraria lobata. METHODS:Using the flowers of Pueraria lobata as raw material,the isoflavone with main com-ponent of tectoridin in the flower of P. lobata was prepared with ethanol,ethyl acetate extracted,ethanol recrystallized and puri-fied,and it was converted to tectorigenin with hydrolysis in hydrochloric acid. By screening the solvent and wavelength,UV spec-trophotometry was established to determine tectovidin and tectorigenin,and calculate the isoflavone content and acid hydrolysis con-version rate of tectoridin(expressed by the relative percentage of tectorigenin). It was compared with HPLC detection results,the accuracy of UV method was evaluated. RESULTS:The solvent was 70%ethanol solution containing 1%triethylamine,and the iso-flavone content was detected at wavelength of 339,274 nm. The linear range of tectoridin was 8.80-29.33 nmol/mL(r=0.9999). RSDs of precision(n=6),stability(n=5)and reproducibility(n=6)tests were lower than 1.94%;average recovery was 99.7%(RSD=1.77%,n=9). There were no statistical significances in the contents of total flavonoids (UV:17.64-25.55 nmol/mL vs. HPLC:17.39-24.40 nmol/mL) and the relative percentage of tectorigenin (UV:57.65%-87.59% vs. HPLC:55.62%-91.14%). CONCLUSIONS:The established method is accurate,reliable,and can be used for the rapid determination of acid hydrolysis con-version rate of tectoridin.
