(PN) root is a renowned nutritional supplement, health food additive, and traditional medicine that maintains homeostasis within the human microcirculatory system. Notoginsenoside R1 (NG-R1), an active compound derived from PN root, has been reported to possess various pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, antimicrobial, and angiogenic effects. However, NG-R1's pharmacokinetic properties and pharmacological activities have not been systematically elucidated.

Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent male sexual disorder, commonly associated with hypertension, though the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Objective: This study aims to explore the role of Fatty acid synthase (Fasn) in hypertension-induced ED and evaluate the therapeutic potential of the Fasn inhibitor C75.

Materials And Methods: Erectile function was assessed by determining the intracavernous pressure/mean arterial pressure (ICP/MAP) ratio, followed by the collection of cavernous tissue for transcriptomic and non-targeted metabolomic analyses.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS) is caused by the endothelium injury associated with oxidative stress. Previous studies have shown that the Phlegm-Eliminating and Stasis- Transforming Decoction (Huayu Qutan Decoction, HYQTD) has mitochondrial protective function. The objective of this research was to explore how HYQTD drug-containing serum (HYQTD-DS) could potentially protect mitochondrial energy production in endothelial cells (ECs) from injury caused by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative damage in AS through SIRT1/PGC-1α/ Nrf2 pathway.
