Modified Liuwei Dihuang Decoction (MLWDH) is an improved version of Liuwei Dihuang Decoction (LWDH), a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, which has demonstrated significant therapeutic effects against OA. This study aims to evaluate the protective effects of MLWDH against OA and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanisms. <b>Methods</b>: The constituents of MLWDH were identified via UPLC-HRMS and compound databases (TCMSP, HERB). Network pharmacology analysis was conducted to predict potential therapeutic targets and associated signaling pathways. In vivo, a CP-induced mouse model of OA was established to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of MWDH by assessing testicular and epididymal indices, sperm quality, histopathological changes and serum hormone levels. Oxidative stress markers, including MDA, SOD, GSH and NO, were measured using commercial assay kits. The underlying molecular mechanisms, particularly those related to oxidative stress and inflammation (PI3K, Akt, Nrf2, Keap1, HO-1, NQO1, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-6), were further elucidated by RT-qPCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence. <b>Results</b>: A total of 345 major bioactive compounds were identified in MLWDH. Network pharmacology and molecular docking analyses indicated that MLWDH exerts its effects primarily through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. MLWDH administration in vivo significantly improved sperm count, motility, and morphology, while also increasing serum levels of testosterone, FSH, and LH. Moreover, MLWDH significantly mitigated oxidative damage, as evidenced by decreased MDA concentrations and elevated levels of GSH, NO and SOD. Mechanistic investigations further substantiated that MLWDH enhanced PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 signaling while inhibiting NF-κB signaling in OA mice. <b>Conclusions</b>: Our findings suggest that MLWDH ameliorates OA in a preclinical mouse model by improving sperm quality and testicular function, potentially via activation of the PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 signaling pathway and the inhibition of NF-κB signaling, thereby alleviating oxidative stress and inflammatory responses.</p>","PeriodicalId":20198,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceuticals","volume":"18 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12472625/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145177571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) plus insulin therapy on long-term cardiovascular and microvascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), with the goal of optimizing treatment strategies. <b>Methods:</b> Using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (2008-2021), we conducted a retrospective cohort study and identified 6779 propensity score-matched pairs of insulin-treated patients with T2D who initiated either GLP-1 RAs or dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors.

Pharmacogenetics examines how these polymorphisms affect medication response. This review highlights significant disparities in the pharmacogenetic influences on antidepressant response, with a focus on ethnic and sex-based differences. <b>Methods:</b> This review synthesizes findings from a comprehensive literature search conducted between 2000 and 2025. It utilized databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, using search terms including \"pharmacogenetics\", \"antidepressants\", \"Major Depressive Disorder\", \"CYP450\", \"neuroplasticity\", and \"genetic variations\". This review integrates pharmacogenetics with neurotransmitters and their transporters, neuroplasticity, growth factors, and the cytochrome P450 family, providing promising insights for personalized MDD treatment strategies. We analyzed and synthesized findings from over 50 relevant studies, focusing on those with a clear emphasis on genetic associations with antidepressant efficacy and adverse effects. <b>Results:</b> Pharmacogenetic analysis facilitates personalized antidepressant prescriptions by identifying key genetic variants that influence treatment outcomes. Specifically, variations in CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 can significantly impact drug metabolism and tolerability. A high percentage of patients with non-normal metabolizer phenotypes are predisposed to adverse drug reactions or ineffective responses. Furthermore, this review identifies significant ethnic and sex-based disparities in treatment response. For example, the L allele of the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism confers a higher likelihood of response and remission following SSRI treatment in white people compared to Asians. Additionally, in women, specific 5-HTTLPR polymorphisms have a more pronounced influence on mood and MDD pathophysiology, with a significant reduction in mood in response to tryptophan depletion. <b>Conclusions:</b> Integrating pharmacogenetic insights, encompassing genetic factors, neurotransmitter pathways, neuroplasticity, and the influence of ethnicity and sex, is crucial for developing personalized antidepressant treatment strategies.
