Background: Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis, a newly identified regulated cell death characterized by increased lipid peroxidation and accumulation of toxic lipid peroxides, is closely related to the pathophysiological processes of nervous system diseases which can be inhibited with iron chelators, lipophilic antioxidants, and lipid peroxidation inhibitors.

Objective: To review the current evidence on the efficacy of various natural polyphenols in nervous system injury.

Methods: The data selected for this review were collected by searching the MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar database for articles published in English between 2000 and 2024 using the following terms: cell death, regulated cell death, ferroptosis, lipid peroxides, iron, and glutathione peroxidase.

Objective: This study investigated the mechanism of baicalin (BIA) attenuating the inflammatory response and lung injury in mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) mice.

Methods: MPP mouse models were established and then treated with BIA, azithromycin, or NLRP3 inflammasome activator. Lung wet-to-dry weight (W/D) ratio were weighed.

The hypoxia microenvironment post-myocardial infarction (MI) critically disturbs cellular metabolism and inflammation response, leading to scarce bioenergy supplying, prolonged inflammatory phase and high risk of cardiac fibrosis during cardiac restoration. Herein, an injectable hydrogel is prepared by Schiff base reaction between fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP)-grafted carboxymethyl chitosan (CF) and oxidized dextran (OD), followed by loading fucoidan-coated baicalin (BA)-encapsulated zein nanoparticles (BFZ NPs), in which immunoregulatory and metabolism improving functions are integrally included. The grafted FBP serves to enhance glycolysis and provide more bioenergy for cardiomyocytes survival under hypoxia microenvironment, and elevating cellular antioxidant capacity pentose phosphate pathway.

Autophagy is a conservative process of self degradation, in which abnormal organelles, proteins and other macromolecules are encapsulated and transferred to lysosomes for subsequent degradation. It maintains the intracellular balance, and responds to cellular conditions such as hunger or stress. To date, there are mainly three types of autophagy: macroautophagy, microautophagy and chaperone-mediated autophagy.

Baicalin and baicalein are the primary flavonoids derived from the desiccated root of , which is a member of the Lamiaceae family; these flavonoids have diverse pharmacological properties and show significant potential for the management of central nervous system disorders. Multiple studies have indicated that these substances effectively reduce the severity of illnesses such as depression, stroke, and degenerative disorders of the central nervous system by exerting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, regulating programmed cell death, and reducing mitochondrial malfunction. Recent studies have highlighted the connection between the accumulation of iron and the ability of baicalein to protect the nervous system.
