Objective: To provide potential evidence for the existence of abnormal Savda, we assessed host metabonomic responses and dynamic changes occurring in various diseases using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabonomics.

Methods: Plasma samples taken from patients with complicated diseases with abnormal Savda (n = 140, including 35 cases each of diabetes, asthma, breast cancer, and cervical carcinoma) and from healthy controls (n = 35) were analyzed by 1H NMR (600 MHz), and the spectral profiles were analyzed by multivariate analysis using orthogonal projection to latent structure with discriminant analysis.

Results: Supervised modeling of the data provided very good discrimination between patients and healthy controls. Compared with the healthy controls, the patient groups with different disease conditions displayed similar metabolic changes, characterized by lower creatine, creatinine, lactate, and amino acid levels (including isoleucine, leucine, valine, alanine, and 1-methylhistidine) and higher lipid levels (very low-density lipoproteins and unsaturated lipids). Additionally, cancer patients (breast and cervical) showed decreased myo-inositol, a-glucose, and beta-glucose, and increased pyruvate and carnitine in plasma.

Conclusion: The data indicate that decreased oxidative defense, liver function abnormalities, amino acid deficiencies, and energy metabolism disorders are common characteristics of complicated diseases, which may be related to the formation of abnormal Savda.

Burn wounds present an evolutionary progression, in which the initial wound tissue deepens and expands following thermal injury. Progressive tissue damage in the zone of stasis may worsen burn injury, which is associated with oxidative stress and secondary apoptosis, and worsen the prognosis of patients with burn wounds. The mitochondrial apoptotic pathway is involved in receiving oxidative signals and regulating tissue apoptosis.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the role of abnormal Savda Munziq (AMSq) as a treatment for cancer patients with abnormal Savda syndrome (ASS), focusing on its effects on protein responses and autophagy in a rat model.
  • Experiments involved 125 rats divided into various groups to analyze changes in gene expression related to the unfolded protein response (UPR) and autophagy, revealing that AMSq enhances UPR markers and influences gene regulation.
  • Results demonstrate a transition from UPR to autophagy responses in the progression to hepatic cancer, with AMSq partially reversing the autophagic changes linked to cancer development.

Objective: Uighur medicine Fufang Munziq granule (Munziq) [corrected] shows cardioprotective effect in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) in animal models, but the molecular mechanism of this effect is not clear. The present study investigates the regulation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) pathway by Fufang Munziq granule (Munziq) in IRI rat models.

Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: the NF-κB gene knockout group (n = 5); the NF-κB transgenic group (n = 8); and the control group (n = 5).

Previous research has demonstrated the anti-tumor properties of Abnormal Savda Munziq (ASMq), a traditional Uyghur compound herbal medicine. The effects of ASMq on cervical carcinomas in U27 tumor-bearing mice is investigated, the effect of adding Fluorouracil (5-FU) is also assessed in this paper. The results demonstrate that ASMq and 5-FU significantly inhibited the proliferation of U27 cells in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner.

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of abnormal Savda Munziq (ASMq) on the development of degenerative atherosclerotic aortic valve disease and its underlying mechanisms. MATERIAL AND METHODS We randomly divided 80 rabbits into 4 groups: a normal control group (group N, n=20); a high-fat diet group (group HC, n=20); a high-fat diet and Atorvastatin calcium intervention group (group AI, n=20); and a high-fat diet and ASMq intervention group (group MI, n=20). For evaluation of blood lipid profiles, blood samples were collected at week 0 and at the end of week 8.
