[Progress on historical evolution, clinical application, and pharmacological effects of Dachaihu Decoction and predictive analysis of its quality markers].

Dachaihu Decoction is a classic prescription with the function of harmonizing Shaoyang and purging away internal stasis of heat, which was specially developed by Master ZHANG Zhongjing for the concurrent disease of Shaoyang and Yangming. A large number of international studies have shown that Dachaihu Decoction has liver protection, gallbladder benefit, anti-inflammatory, and other pharmacological effects and is mostly used in modern clinical treatment of acute pancreatitis, acute cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, and other digestive diseases. This paper combined bibliography and statistics and selected the ancient book database and CNKI database to search the relevant literature on Dachaihu decoction, verify the composition and dosage, processing method, main diseases, and modern clinical application, and predict its quality markers(Q-markers) based on the "five principles" of Q-markers.

Discovery and verification of antidepressant active ingredients of raw and vinegar-processed Bupleurum marginatum var. Stenophyllum based on plant metabolomics and serum pharmacology.

The dried root of Bupleurum marginatum var. stenophyllum (H. Wolff) R.

Two Omics Methods Expose Anti-Depression Mechanism of Raw and Vinegar-Baked Bupleurum Scorzonerifolium Willd.

Bupleurum scorzonerifolium willd. (BS) and its vinegar-baked product (VBS) has been frequently utilized for depression management in clinical Chinese medicine. This paper aims to elucidate the antidepressant mechanism of BS and VBS from the perspectives of metabonomics and gut microbiota.

Discovery and verification of anti-inflammatory-related quality markers in the aerial part of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and in RAW 264.7 cells and a zebrafish model.

Introduction: The root of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium Willd. (BS) is officially recognized in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. In contrast, the aerial part of BS (ABS), accounting for 80% of BS, is typically discarded, causing potential waste of medicinal resources.

Discovery and verification of Q-markers for promoting blood circulation and removing stasis of raw and wine-steamed Vaccaria segetalis based on pharmacological evaluation combined with chemometrics.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Dried and mature seeds of Vaccaria segetalis (Neck.) Garcke ex Asch. (VS) are known for their therapeutic effects, as they stimulate blood circulation, promote menstruation and diuresis and eliminate gonorrhoea.

Screening of Q-markers for the wine-steamed Schisandra chinensis decoction pieces in improving allergic asthma.

Background: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) posits that Chinese medicinal materials can only be clinically used after being processed and prepared into decoction pieces. Schisandra Chinensis Fructus (derived from the dried and mature fruits of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill.

Bupleurum scorzonerifolium: Systematic research through pharmacodynamics and serum pharmacochemistry on screening antidepressant Q-markers for quality control.

Bupleurum scorzonerifolium (BS) is one of the sources of Bupleuri Radix, which was first recorded in Shennong's classic of materia medica. It has a medicinal history of 2000 years and is now widely used for the treatment of depression clinically. However, the material basis of antidepressant effects is unclear, and the quality evaluation method is lacking.
