文摘OBJECTIVE:To examine Hedan tablet(HDT,荷丹片)'s potential mechanisms in hyperlipidemic rats induced by a high-fat diet(HFD),as well as its regulatory effects and primary active constituents.METHODS:By using ultra-performance liquid chromatography(UPLC)-quadrupole-time-of-flight(QTOF)-tandem mass spectrometry(MS/MS),the components of HDT that can enter the circulatory system were found,aiming to investigate its active constituents with pharmacological effects.Based on network pharmacology approaches,the relevant HDT targets in the therapy of hyperlipidemia were anticipated.The possible mechanism of HDT for hyperlipidemia treatment was verified by in-vivo experiments,and the main active components of HDT for hyperlipidemia treatment were analyzed via in-vitro experiments.RESULTS:UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS identified 30 components of HDT entering the circulatory system,primarily consisting of flavonoids,diterpenoids and alkaloids.The results of a network pharmacology study revealed that 30 active components mostly target 74 genes associated with hyperlipidemia.The primary active ingredients may include quercetin,kaempferol,and epicatechin,and the main gene targets may be tumor necrosis factor(TNF),interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin 1 beta(IL-1β),etc.The results of animal experiments demonstrated that HDT can significantly regulate the blood lipid level in rats with HFD,improve the degree of inflammatory infiltration in rat liver cells,lower TNF-α,Creactive protein(CRP),IL-6,matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9) and malondialdehyde(MDA) levels while raising total superoxide dismutase(T-SOD) level.Meanwhile,HDT can considerably lower the expression of sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 2(SREBF2),3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase(HMGCR),and MMP9 while significantly increasing the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha(PPAR-α) and PPAR-γ.In vitro study confirmed that quercetin and kaempferol could reduce the levels of IL-6,IL1B,MMP9 and HMGCR in the high-fat model of hepatoma G2 cells.CONCLUSIONS:The mechanism by which HDT treats hyperlipidemia involves modification of the lipid metabolism targets such as downregulating SREBF2,HMGCR and MMP9,and upregulating PPAR-α and PPAR-γ,as well as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions.This study provides a pharmacological and biological rationale for the use of HDT in clinical hyperlipidemia management.

文摘[Objectives]To explore the clinical efficacy of Qinjin Tablet in treating unstable angina with phlegm-stasis syndrome and preliminarily explore its intervention mechanism.[Methods]Sixty unstable angina patients with phlegm-stasis syndrome were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group(30 each).The control group received standardized Western medicine treatment,while the treatment group also took Qinjin Tablet.After a 4-week treatment,comparisons were made on improvement of angina symptoms,TCM syndrome scores,blood stasis scores,reduction/cessation of short-acting anti-angina drugs,Seattle Angina Questionnaire(SAQ)scores,blood lipid levels,and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)concentrations between the two groups.[Results]No statistical differences existed in baseline data like age,gender,and disease duration between the two groups(P>0.05).The treatment group showed significantly better efficacy than the control group in improving angina symptoms,TCM syndrome scores,blood stasis scores,and reduction or discontinuation of short-acting anti-anginal drugs(P<0.05).The SAQ score increase was more significant in the treatment group(P<0.05).The control group significantly reduced low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)(P<0.05),while the treatment group markedly increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)(P<0.05).Post-treatment,the treatment group had a marked reduction in serum MMP-9(P<0.05),with no significant change in the control group.[Conclusions]Qinjin Tablet can significantly alleviate clinical symptoms and improve quality of life in UA patients by modulating the HDL-C/MMP-9 signaling pathway.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To investigate the impact of Shenhua tablet(肾华片,SHT)on renal macrophage polarization and renal injury in mice with diabetic kidney disease(DKD)and to explore the potential mechanism involving the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)and pyruvate kinase M2(PKM2)signaling pathway,along with the glycolysis metabolism pathway.METHODS:The animals were divided into the following groups:Model,Control,dapagliflozin,SHT low-dose,SHT medium-dose,and SHT high-dose.We assessed 24-hour urine protein(24 h-UTP)levels,urinary albuminto-creatinine ratio,and regularly monitored fasting blood glucose during the treatment period.After treatment,we examined renal tissue structure,renal function(urea nitrogen,uric acid,creatinine,cystatin C,β2-microglobulin),and glycolysis in renal macrophages.Additionally,we observed macrophage polarization in renal tissue and measured inflammatory factors(tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-1β,interleukin-6,interleukin-10,monocyte chemoattractant protein-1)to assess the immunoinflammatory status of the renal tissue.Finally,we investigated the expression of the HIF-1α/PKM2 signaling pathway in macrophages to explore its role in the glycolysis process.RESULTS:SHT shows a beneficial effect in treating DKD by reducing 24 h-UTP,regulating blood glucose levels,improving renal tissue structure,protecting renal function,inhibiting macrophage glycolysis,reducing macrophage transformation to the M1 state,and suppressing the expression of the HIF-1α/PKM2 signaling pathway.CONCLUSION:SHT may exert renoprotective effects by inhibiting macrophage glycolysis via the HIF-1α/PKM2 signaling pathway.This inhibition decreases macrophage M1 polarization and reduces immunoinflammatory injury in the renal tissue of DKD mice.
文摘This article presents a case study of a 20-year-old male patient diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM)(NYHA IV).This condition was diagnosed as"heart failure disease"(water overflowing due to yang deficiency,intermingled phlegm and stasis)in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).The treatment approach employed a combination of TCM and Western medicine.Western medicine involved the administration of sacubitril valsartan sodium tablets to inhibit ventricular remodeling,in conjunction with diuretics and cardiotonic agents.Initially,TCM utilized a static infusion of Shenfu injection,which was subsequently supplemented with Qiliqiangxin capsules to invigorate qi,warm yang,activate blood circulation,and promote diuresis.After a follow-up period of 3 years,the patient's ejection fraction(EF)improved from 23%to 51%,and the left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVed)decreased from 68 to 52 mm,accompanied by a significant alleviation of symptoms.These findings indicate that the combined treatment of TCM and Western medicine can synergistically enhance cardiac function and impede the progression of the disease,thereby offering valuable insights for the optimal management of DCM.
文摘Objective:To analyze the therapeutic efficacy of Shexiang Baoxin Pill combined with Rosuvastatin Calcium Tablets(ROS)in patients with angina pectoris due to coronary atherosclerotic heart disease(CHD-AP).Methods:Eighty CHD-AP patients admitted for treatment from January 2023 to December 2024 were selected and evenly divided using a random number table.The combined group(40 cases)received treatment with Shexiang Baoxin Pill combined with ROS,while the reference group(40 cases)received ROS monotherapy.The overall response rate,frequency and duration of AP attacks,blood lipid levels,and cardiac function indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:The combined group exhibited a higher overall response rate than the reference group.After treatment,the frequency and duration of AP attacks were lower in the combined group than in the reference group.Additionally,blood lipid levels and cardiac function indicators were superior in the combined group(p<0.05).Conclusion:The combination of Shexiang Baoxin Pill and ROS demonstrates favorable therapeutic effects in CHD-AP patients,effectively preventing AP attacks,regulating blood lipid levels,protecting cardiac function,and reducing disease risk.
