Quercetin, a flavonoid known for its antioxidant properties, has recently garnered attention as a potential neuroprotective agent for treatment of the injured nervous system. The repair of peripheral nerve injuries hinges on the proliferation and migration of Schwann cells, which play a crucial role in supporting axonal growth and myelination. In this study we synthesized Quercetin-derived carbon dots (QCDs) and investigated their effects on cultured Schwann cells and the NG108-15 cell line.

Background And Objective: Changweiqing (CWQ) is a Chinese herbal formula for the treatment of the gastrointestinal tract diseases, but its role in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been clarified. This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of CWQ in CRC treatment through bioinformatics analysis and network pharmacology.
Methods: Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform and SwissTargetPrediction database were used to collect the bioactive components of CWQ.

Introduction: Many human tumours have hyperactive signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3, positioning it as a prime target for natural compounds with anticancer properties. This study investigated three small-molecule STAT3 inhibitors derived from : cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside, kaempferol-3-o-β-d-galactopyranoside, and quercetin-3-o-(2″-o-galloyl)-β-d-galactopyranoside.
Material And Methods: The compounds were explored through virtual screening and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to understand the intracellular processing of activated STAT3.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline, which can result in diabetic cognitive impairment (DCI). Recent studies have indicated that gut microbiota plays a significant role in the development of DCI. Tangliping Decoction (TLP), a traditional Chinese medicine compound, contains various active ingredients that have been shown to regulate the microecology of gut microbiota and potentially improve DCI.
