The normal Raman spectra and surface-enhanced Raman spectra (SERS) of largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction were tested and analyzed. The characteristic Raman bands of largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction were tentatively assigned. Six obvious Raman bands (396, 548, 617, 730, 955 and 1327 cm(-1)) were observed in the SERS of largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction. The absorption spectra of largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction and the mixture of silver colloids and largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction were tested. A new resonance absorption peak (999 nm) appeared in the long-wavelength region in UV-Vis absorption spectra of the mixture. The adsorption characteristics and possible enhancing mechanism of the largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction on silver colloid were speculated. The results showed that the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy might provide a new kind of precise, direct and fast detecting method for the largehead atractylodes rhizome decoction or other traditional Chinese medicine.

Investigations into the therapeutic potential of Astragalus Mongholicus (AM, huáng qí) and Largehead Atractylodes (LA, bái zhú) reveal significant efficacy in mitigating the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), albeit with an elusive mechanistic understanding. This study delineates the primary bioactive constituents and their molecular targets within the AM-LA synergy by harnessing the comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) network databases, including TCMSP, TCMID, and ETCM. Furthermore, an analysis of 3 gene expression datasets, sourced from the gene expression omnibus database, facilitated the identification of differential genes associated with KOA.

Background: Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), a kind of skin cancer with high rates of morbidity and mortality, occurs frequently in the clinic. Although early surgical treatment can achieve good results, there is no effective prevention and treatment for the recurrence and metastasis of cSCC. As a useful resource to protect humans from disease, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been adopted by clinicians for thousands of years.

The incidence and mortality of gastric cancer ranks among the highest, and the 5-year survival rate of advanced gastric cancer (AGC) is less than 10%. Currently, chemotherapy is the main treatment for AGC, and oxaliplatin is an important part of the commonly used chemotherapy regimen for AGC. A large number of RCTs have shown that Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) combined with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy can improve objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR), reduce the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy.

Largehead atractylodes rhizome, known as "the first essential medicine for invigorating qi and strengthening spleen" , is one of the most commonly used Chinese materia medica. According to the different clinical treatment requirements, largehead atractylodes rhizome can be processed into a variety types of products, such as raw, fried with earth, stir-frying with bran, and deep-fried largehead atractylodes rhizome. The processing quality is of great significance to ensure the efficacy, drug safety and improve the preparation process.

Houshiheisan is composed of wind-dispelling (chrysanthemun flower, divaricate saposhnikovia root, Manchurian wild ginger, cassia twig, Szechwan lovage rhizome, and platycodon root) and deficiency-nourishing (ginseng, Chinese angelica, large-head atractylodes rhizome, Indian bread, and zingiber) drugs. In this study, we assumed these drugs have protective effects against cerebral ischemia, on neurovascular units. Houshiheisan was intragastrically administered in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia.
