Article Synopsis
  • A study aimed to explore how the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway contributes to inflammation in diabetes, particularly in cases affected by Northwest dryness syndrome.
  • Rats were divided into different groups for testing, with various methods used to analyze inflammation markers, biochemical indexes, and tissue samples.
  • Results showed that the Northwest dryness syndrome group exhibited higher inflammation and metabolic issues compared to both the T2DM group and the internal dampness group, highlighting the severe impact of this syndrome on diabetes-related inflammation.

Background: To investigate the effects of Bushen Huoxue Decoction (BSHXD) and its underlying molecular mechanisms on inhibiting osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in vascular calcification via regulating the mRNA expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and the receptor activator of the nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL).

Methods: VSMCs from the aortas of rats were cultured . Osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs was induced by high levels of an inorganic phosphate medium (2.
