Zang Siwei Qingfei mixture (ZSQM) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula used for the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases. However, the underlying mechanism of ZSQM for treating PAH remains unclear.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Methods:</b> A PAH rat model was established after monocrotaline (MCT) injection, and pulmonary hemodynamic features and pathological changes were evaluated. The candidate targets of ZSQM against PAH were discovered using network pharmacology. Then, molecular docking was used to validate the discovered key targets. Moreover, serum metabolomics was used to identify differential metabolites. The metabolomics and network pharmacology integrated network was constructed.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Results:</b> ZSQM alleviated MCT-induced pulmonary vascular injury and vascular remodeling. We found ZSQM core component chrysin and six hub genes according to network pharmacology, including CYP2C19, CASP8, PTK2, VEGFA, FLT4, and TNNI3. Molecular docking revealed strong binding affinities between key targets and chrysin. Meanwhile, western blotting results validated significant changes in the expression of these key targets. Subsequently, we confirmed that chrysin existed in the ZSQM by HPLC–MS. In addition, a total of 19 metabolites with potential significance were identified to be implicated in the therapeutic mechanisms of ZSQM. The further integrated analysis indicated an interconnection between these key targets, their related core metabolites (12(S)HETE, ascorbate, succinate, vitamin C, and L-arginine), and metabolic pathways.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Conclusion:</b> The study, employing metabolomics and network pharmacology, has concluded that ZSQM has the potential to enhance the treatment of PAH by targeting multiple pathways and molecular targets. This finding suggests that ZSQM could serve as a promising alternative therapy for PAH.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15802,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Biochemistry","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/3435474","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attenuating inflammation induced by microglial cells is considered a key strategy for slowing the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. γ-glutamylcysteine (γ-GC) has exhibited significant antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects; nevertheless, its potential role in modulating neuroinflammatory responses remains incompletely explored. The current investigation aimed to establish a neuroinflammation model by stimulating BV2 microglia cells with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and to explore the protective effect of γ-GC on neuroinflammation in BV2 microglia cells. The results demonstrated that γ-GC significantly attenuated LPS-induced oxidative damage in BV2 cells, reduced the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), inhibited the cytoplasmic translocation of high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), and effectively mitigated the LPS-induced inflammatory response in BV2 cells. We further investigated the regulatory mechanism of γ-GC on LPS-induced BV2 neuroinflammation and found that γ-GC significantly enhances autophagy in BV2 cells, resulting in a marked reduction in mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) phosphorylation levels and an increase in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation levels. The use of autophagy inhibitors 3-methyladenine (3-MA) and AMPK inhibitors further corroborates the proposition that γ-GC promotes autophagy in BV2 cells while suppressing the LPS-induced inflammatory response of BV2 microglia through the activation of the AMPK-mTOR pathway. The findings indicate that γ-GC exerts a substantial inhibitory impact on neuroinflammation, making it a promising candidate for the development of therapeutic strategies against neuroinflammatory disorders and related conditions.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15802,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Biochemistry","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/5593203","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aerosol therapy is widely used in asthma treatment, which can achieve effective concentrations locally. The efficacy of atomized Res for asthma has not been evaluated yet. Therefore, this article aimed to evaluate the effects of Res aerosol inhalation on asthma and explore the mechanisms involved. Ovalbumin (OVA) was used to construct an asthma mouse model. Different concentrations of Res solution were atomized with an ultrasonic nebulizer, and the asthmatic mice were treated. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to evaluate the degree of airway inflammation and airway remodeling in the mice. Serum from each group of mice was collected for IgE and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) detection. Real-time quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry, and western blotting were used to detect the expression levels of the target genes and proteins. Compared with the asthma group, the airway inflammation scores were significantly decreased in the low- or high-dose Res group. The airway remodeling parameters of the WAm/Pbm, WAmuc/Pbm, and WAi/Pbm ratios were significantly reduced. The expression of serum IgE, IL-5 mRNA, and p-STAT6 protein was significantly decreased, and serum T-AOC was increased in the Res group. Consistently, Res treatment significantly inhibited p-STAT6 expression induced by recombinant human IL-13 in 16HBE cells.
