Period circadian clock 3 is crucial for regulation of IL-22-producing type 3 innate lymphoid cells by flavonoids from Shen Ling Bai Zhu San to alleviate colitis.

Type 3 Innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) functions bear complex response during Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Here, our study first analyzed the main pharmacological components in Shen Ling Bai Zhu San n-butanol extracts (S-Nb), and then explored whether S-Nb administrated immune response of ILC3s, and how it regulates ILC3s. Shen Ling Bai Zhu San (SLBZS) or S-Nb were administrated for 7 days to analyze the frequency of ILC3s and their produced cytokine.

Phytosterols Alleviate Hyperlipidemia by Regulating Gut Microbiota and Cholesterol Metabolism in Mice.

Phytosterols (PS) have been shown to regulate cholesterol metabolism and alleviate hyperlipidemia (HLP), but the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the mechanism by which PS regulates cholesterol metabolism in high-fat diet (HFD) mice. The results showed that PS treatment reduced the accumulation of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in the serum of HFD mice, while increasing the serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).

Polysaccharides derived from Shenling Baizhu San improve colitis via modulating tryptophan metabolism in mice.

Shenling Baizhu San has beneficial effects on the metabolism of the gut microbiota, however, the mechanisms underlying microbiota metabolites mediated anti-inflammation signaling are not well understood. Previously, we have demonstrated that supplementation with Shenling Baizhu San alleviated antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD). The current study intends to investigate the dynamic modulation of Shenling Baizhu San polysaccharides (SP) on colitis from the gut microbiota metabolites perspective.

L. extracts alleviate 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene-induced atopic dermatitis in mice.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic allergic skin disease characterized clinically by severe skin lesions and pruritus. L. (PO) is a resourceful plant with homologous properties in medicine and food.

Melatonin Alleviates Neuroinflammation and Metabolic Disorder in DSS-Induced Depression Rats.

There is a bidirectional relationship between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and depression/anxiety. Emerging evidences indicate that the liver may be involved in microbiota-gut-brain axis. This experiment focused on the role of melatonin in regulating the gut microbiota and explores its mechanism on dextran sulphate sodium- (DSS-) induced neuroinflammation and liver injury.

The Gut Microbiome Modulates the Changes in Liver Metabolism and in Inflammatory Processes in the Brain of Chronic Unpredictable Mild Stress Rats.

Generally, depression is the result of complex gene-environment interactions. Recent studies have showed that the gut microbiota can affect brain function through the microbiota-gut-brain axis. However, the underlying mechanism of the microbiota and potential influence of depression remain elusive.

Systems Pharmacology and Microbiome Dissection of Shen Ling Bai Zhu San Reveal Multiscale Treatment Strategy for IBD.

Generally, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can be caused by psychology, genes, environment, and gut microbiota. Therefore, IBD therapy should be improved to utilize multiple strategies. Shen Ling Bai Zhu San (SLBZS) adheres to the aim of combating complex diseases from an integrative and holistic perspective, which is effective for IBD therapy.
