Aim: To develop a method of identifying the existing of Panax notoginseng in products of traditional Chinese medicine compound Danshen.

Methods: Total ion chromatograms (TIC) of Panax notoginseng, P. ginseng, and P. quinquefolius were obtained by means of LC/MS. Extracted ion chromatograms (EIC) posses m/z of 770, 800, 932, 946 and 1,108 of above-mentioned three herbs was compared between species. EIC 800 and 946 were selected as differentiation marks to distinguish P. notoginseng from the other two species. The EIC 800 and 946 of P. notoginseng were also compared to the EICs obtained by the same method from Chinese patent medicines of compound Danshen pellet, compound Danshen tablet, and compound Danshen injection. EIC 800 and 946 of P. notoginseng and its products possess similar peaks, relative retention time, and relative integral areas. Main chemical constitutes of P. notoginseng were also identified by using LC/MS/MS.

Results: EIC 800 and 946 were obviously different between P. notoginseng, P. ginseng, and P. quinquefolius. Patent medicines of compound Danshen pellet, compound Danshen tablet, which consist of extractions from P. notoginseng, possess the characteristic EICs. The selected EICs were stable and reproductive.

Conclusion: EIC 800 and 946, which correspond to ginsenoside Rg1, Re, and their isomers, can be used as identifying mark of P. notoginseng to differentiate it from other herbs, and also can be used to tell apart P. notoginseng from other herb extractions in Chinese patent medicines of compound Danshen.

Inhibitory Effects of Cryptotanshinone and Dihydrotanshinone I on Intracellular Trafficking of Viral Glycoproteins.

J Microbiol Biotechnol

December 2024

Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Advanced Convergence Technology & Science, Jeju National University, Jeju 63243, Republic of Korea.

Antiviral agents that target the viral envelope surface glycoproteins can disrupt the interactions between the viral glycoproteins and host cell receptors, thereby preventing viral entry into host cells. However, the mechanisms underlying glycoprotein processing and cellular trafficking have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of action of cryptotanshinone (CTN) and dihydrotanshinone I (DTN) as inhibitors of viral glycoprotein trafficking, by assessing their inhibitory action on syncytium formation and cytopathic effects.

Salvianolic acid C promotes renal gluconeogenesis in fibrotic kidneys through PGC1α.

Biochem Biophys Res Commun

January 2025

Department of Nephrology, Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, China; TCM Institute of Kidney Disease of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, China; Key Laboratory of Liver and Kidney Diseases, Ministry of Education, Shanghai Key Laboratory of Traditional Chinese Clinical Medicine, China. Electronic address:

Impaired renal gluconeogenesis is recently identified as a hallmark of chronic kidney disease. However, the therapeutic approach to promote renal gluconeogenesis in CKD is still lacking. We aimed to study whether Salvianolic acid C (SAC), a nature compound extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Danshen, inhibits renal fibrosis through promotion of gluconeogenesis.

Background: It is known that ferroptosis promotes hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) inactivation. Arachidonate 15-Lipoxygenase (ALOX15), a ferroptosis driver gene, participates in disease progression.

Purpose: Dihydrotanshinone I (DHI), an active compound from Salvia miltiorrhiza, effectively regulates HSC inactivation.
