Urolithin A attenuates RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis by co-regulating the p38 MAPK and Nrf2 signaling pathway.

As a critical regulator of bone resorption. osteoclastogenesis is closely associated with osteoporosis (OP) and commonly induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), suggesting that suppression of inflammation may improve OP. Urolithin A (UroA), an active metabolite of ellagic acid, is known to exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects.

Selective enrichment of microbiota-derived tryptophan metabolites in mouse faeces based on molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction for HPLC analysis.

Gut microbiota-derived tryptophan (TRP) metabolites, especially the indole derivatives, function as critical modulators of intestinal immune function and integrity via modulating the aryl hydrocarbon receptor pathway. Selective enrichment of these indole metabolites in biological samples is important for quantitative determination by routine methods such as HPLC. Here, we report a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for solid-phase extraction (SPE) of TRP-derived indole metabolites from faeces of mice.

[Multi-index components of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba according to UHPLC-QTRAP-MS coupled with chemometrics].

The present study developed an ultra-fast liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole-linear ion trap composite mass spectrometry(UHPLC-QTRAP-MS) to simultaneously determine the content of potential active components in Scutellariae Barbatae Herba and also to provide a reference approach for screening out the differential quality control components among different batches of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba. Chromatographic separations were conducted on a Thermo Acclaim~(TM) RSLC 120 C_(18) column(3.0 mm×100 mm, 2.

Systematic Identification of the Main Constituents from Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb. and Their Metabolites in Rats using HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS.

is a perennial herbaceous flowering plant, commonly known as agrimony or hairy agrimony. The dried aerial parts of this species have been widely used for the treatment of acute diarrhea, hemostasis, and other inflammation-related diseases. However, information on the metabolism of constituents is limited.
