Andrographolide Sulfonates and Xiyanping: A Review of Chemical Composition, Pharmacological Activities, Clinical Applications, and Adverse Reactions.

is a plant of the Acanthaceae family and its primary bioactive constituent, andrographolide, exhibits a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities and notable clinical efficacy. However, its poor solubility and limited bioavailability pose significant challenges for therapeutic applications. To overcome these limitations, researchers have synthesized andrographolide sulfonates by reacting andrographolide with ethanol and sulfuric acid.

Highly pathogenic coronavirus N protein aggravates inflammation by MASP-2-mediated lectin complement pathway overactivation.

Excessive inflammatory responses contribute to the pathogenesis and lethality of highly pathogenic human coronaviruses, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, the N proteins of highly pathogenic human coronaviruses, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), middle east respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), were found to bind MASP-2, a key serine protease in the lectin pathway of complement activation, resulting in excessive complement activation by potentiating MBL-dependent MASP-2 activation, and the deposition of MASP-2, C4b, activated C3 and C5b-9. Aggravated inflammatory lung injury was observed in mice infected with adenovirus expressing the N protein.

Role of AhR and Foxo1 in skin inflammation in burn animal model via MAPK signaling pathway.

Burn generally refers to thermal damage, including tissue damage caused by hydrothermal (water, soup, oil, etc.), flame, steam, high-temperature gas, hot metal liquid or solid (such as molten steel, ingot). However, little is known about the pathogenesis and inducement of skin inflammation in burned rats.

Identification of Metabolites of the Cardioprotective Alkaloid Dehydrocorydaline in Rat Plasma and Bile by Liquid Chromatography Coupled with Triple Quadrupole Linear Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry.

Dehydrocorydaline (DHC), a quaternary alkaloid from , has been demonstrated to be the active constituent in the treatment of coronary heart disease. In this study, a high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-triple quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-QTRAP MS) technique was used to identify DHC metabolites in plasma and bile after oral administration of DHC to rats. A total of 18 metabolites (M1 to M18) were identified and characterized by LC-MS/MS in the positive ion mode.

The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of site-specific pegylated genetically modified recombinant human interleukin-11 in normal and thrombocytopenic monkeys.

In order to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of recombinant human interleukin-11 mutein (mIL-11) and to reduce the frequency of administration, we examined the feasibility of chemical modification of mIL-11 by methoxy polyethylene glycol succinimidyl carbonate (mPEG-SC). PEG-mIL-11 was prepared by a pH controlled amine specific method. Bioactivity of the protein was determined in a IL-11-dependent in vitro bioassay, its pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties were investigated by using normal and thrombocytopenic monkey models.

LC-MS/MS determination and pharmacokinetic study of dehydrocorydaline in rat plasma after oral administration of dehydrocorydaline and Corydalis yanhusuo extract.

A rapid, sensitive and selective liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (LC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for determination of dehydrocorydaline (DHC) in rat plasma using nitidine chloride as an internal standard. The analytes were solid-phase extracted and eluted on a C18 chromatography column using a mobile phase of acetonitrile and water (containing 0.8% formic acid and 10 mM ammonium acetate) (28:72, v/v).

LC-MS/MS method for determination of geldanamycin derivative GM-AMPL in rat plasma to support preclinical development.

A LC-MS/MS method for determining the concentration of the small molecule Hsp90 inhibitor, GM-AMPL, has been developed and validated in rat plasma to support preclinical development. 17-[2-(morpholine-4-yl)ethyl]amino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (GM-AMPL) and the internal standard 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG) were sufficiently separated on a Venusil MP C18 column that was eluted with 80% methanol in water at 40°C. Quantification studies were performed with a multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transition of m/z 657.

[Identification of foliumn pyrrosiae from different habitats and species by HPLC fingerprint].

Objective: To establish HPLC fingerprint of Folium Pyrrosiae for identification.

Methods: The HPLC method was developed with Diamonsil C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm),and a mixture liquid of acetonitrile-0.

[Determination of chlorogenic acid and mangiferin in Folium Pyrrosiae from different habitats and species by HPLC].

An HPLC method for simultaneous determination of chlorogenic acid and mangiferin in original medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Pyrrosiae Folium was developed. The assay was performed on a Diamonsil C18 (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) column eluted with a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and 0.

[Identification and analysis of absorbed components in rat plasma after oral administration of active fraction of Corydalis yanhusuo by LC-MS/MS].

To analyze and identify the constituents in rat plasma after oral administration of the active fraction of Corydalis yanhusuo, a LC-MS/MS method was established. The constituents absorbed into blood, their original crude drugs and their metabolites were identified either by comparing the retention time and mass spectrometry data with that of reference compounds or by mass spectrometry analysis and retrieving the reference literatures. Nine species are the original form in Corydalis yanhusuo, moreover, some metabolites in blood identified as glucuronide were found.
