Therefore, we used a previously constructed MrgprX2-HALO-tag/CMC-HPLC-MS system specifically for identifying natural antagonists. <i>Rhus chinensis</i> Mill has been found to possess anti-inflammatory activities, but its active components targeting MrgprX2 remain unexplored. In this study, the MrgprX2-HALO-tag/CMC-HPLC-MS method successfully identified fisetin as the first reported MrgprX2-targeting component from <i>Rhus chinensis</i> Mill. Through frontal analysis, we demonstrated that fisetin exhibits strong binding affinity (<i>K</i><sub><i>D</i></sub> = 2.02 μM) with MrgprX2, representing the first quantitative assessment of this interaction. Molecular docking revealed four key binding residues (TRP248, ASP184, LEU247, and GLU164) that form stable interactions with fisetin. Pharmacological validation using LAD2 cells confirmed fisetin's potent anti-allergic activity via MrgprX2 antagonism. In summary, these findings not only identify fisetin as an active constituent of <i>Rhus chinensis</i> Mill but also further confirm that it targeted MrgprX2 to exert anti-inflammatory properties, offering new perspectives for developing anti-pseudoallergic therapeutics.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8861,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Chromatography","volume":"39 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144891767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional neuraminidase assays predominantly employ synthetic fluorogenic substrates such as 2′-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-α-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid. However, existing methods are limited by their inability to accurately mimic the natural environment of glycan substrates. Although the majority of neuraminidase assays in current use have been optimized for influenza neuraminidases, methods specifically developed and validated for HN of NDV are limited. Here, we present an optimized high-performance liquid chromatography-based protocol tailored for NDV-HN protein that utilizes an Aminex HPX-87H carbohydrate column for analyzing enzyme activity and sialollactose as a physiologically relevant substrate. Upon enzymatic cleavage by hemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein, free sialic acid, cleaved from the sialollactose moiety, is directly detected at 210 nm, bypassing the need for derivatization with chromogenic or fluorogenic agents. With the help of standard curves, the quantity of sialic acid released can be efficiently measured under different conditions such as at different pH or in the presence of an inhibitor.

Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the amelioration and potential mechanism of GYD on CRC by comprehensively analyzing the metagenome of gut microbiota and fecal metabolome. The results indicated that GYD significantly reduced the number and size of adenomas in the mouse colon, decreased spleen index, alleviated mouse emaciation and rectal bleeding, and protected the colonic barrier. 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis revealed that GYD could markedly improve the dysbiosis of gut microbiota in CRC mice, increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria and decreasing the abundance of pathogenic bacteria. Furthermore, the disordered fecal metabolic profiling of CRC mice was notably reversed by GYD. Following GYD administration, metabolites such as thiamine pyrophosphate, 3-methylpentanoic acid, and propanoic acid significantly increased, whereas 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanoic acid, levodopa, and stearic acid remarkably decreased. Correlation analysis further indicated a close relationship between differential gut microbiota and metabolites.
