Benzoylaconine Protects Skeletal Muscle Against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Through Activation of IF1-Dependent AMPK/Nrf2 Axis.

Background: (Fuzi) has been conventionally used to cure a variety of ailments, such as pain, cold sensations, and numbness of limb muscles (Bi Zheng) in China. Our prior investigations identified Benzoylaconine (BAC) as a bioactive alkaloid derived from , with other studies also demonstrating its significant pharmacological potential.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the potential of BAC as a protective agent against skeletal muscle ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Analysis of pharmacodynamic components, targets and synergistic action mechanism of Fuyuan Shenghua granule for the treatment of medical-induced incomplete abortion based on network pharmacology.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Fuyuan Shenghua Granule (FYSHG) is a traditional Chinese medicine preparation widely used in our hospital for the treatment of incomplete postpartum uterine repair. However, its pharmacological action, main components, and synergistic mechanism are still unclear.

Aim Of The Study: The study aims to verify the pharmacological action, identify the main components and explore the synergistic mechanisms of FYSHG for the treatment of medical-induced incomplete abortion.

Association between prenatal antibiotics exposure and measures of fetal growth: A repeated-measure study.

The abuse of antibiotics in animal husbandry has brought many public health problems, among which the passive use of antibiotics caused by eating food containing residual antibiotics has attracted the most attention. However, few studies have examined the possible adverse effects of prenatal antibiotics exposure on fetal growth and development. In this study, we investigated the associations between prenatal antibiotics exposure and measures of fetal growth.

A Novel Modulator of the Renin-Angiotensin System, Benzoylaconitine, Attenuates Hypertension by Targeting ACE/ACE2 in Enhancing Vasodilation and Alleviating Vascular Inflammation.

The monoester alkaloids in , including benzoylaconitine (BAC), benzoylmesaconine, and benzoylhypaconitine, were found to have anti-hypertensive effects in spontaneously hypertension rats (SHRs), of which BAC is the strongest. However, its antihypertensive target and underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, first, we screened the antihypertensive targets of BAC by using the CVDPlatform (www.

Population pharmacokinetic study of caffeine citrate in Chinese premature infants with apnea.

What Is Known And Objectives: Caffeine citrate is a commonly used methylxanthine for pharmacologic treatment of apnea of prematurity. The aim of this study was to develop and verify a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model, which can provide a reference for individualized caffeine citrate treatment of apnea in Chinese premature infants.

Methods: A total of 88 serum concentration measurements from 46 preterm patients (median gestational age 29 weeks) were retrospectively collected and the relevant clinical data of patients were recorded.

The compatibility of six alkaloids in ermiao pill explored by a comparative pharmacokinetic and network pharmacological study.

Ermiao Pill (EMW), a traditional Chines medicine (TCM), composed of a two-herb pair, Phellodendri Cortex (PC) and Atractylodis Rhizome (AR), is used for the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease and inflammatory-related diseases. However, the underlying mechanism is still unknown. Compatibility plays a crucial role in the complex drugs such as those used in traditional Chinese medicine.
