Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (LJF), a kind of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs), has functions of detoxifying and evacuating heat. In the study, a method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS) was developed for the chemical constituent analysis of organic acids, flavonoids, iridoids and new-generated compounds in sulfur-fumigated LJF (SF-LJF). Based on the accurate mass measurement (< ± 5 ppm), chromatographic behavior and diagnostic product ions (DPIs), 113 constituents were unambiguously or tentatively characterized from SF-LJF extract, including 46 chlorogenic acids, 19 flavonoids, 29 iridoid glycosides and 19 newly-generated compounds (including 17 sulfur-containing derivatives). In addition, 5-CQA (5-caffeoylquinic acid, chlorogenic acid) was chosen to be sulfur-fumigated for the result validation. It was found that the most significant change of LJF after sulfur fumigation was the occurrence of sulfate or sulfite esterification reactions, which resulted in the emergence of many new sulfur-containing components. Our results demonstrated that the established method was a useful and efficient analytical tool to comprehensively characterize the material basis of SF-LJF, and also an excellent guidance of quality control about LJF.

Two undescribed oxazole-containing diterpenoids (1-2) and a new diterpenoid (3) were isolated from the roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza. Their structures were elucidated by extensive HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configurations of 1 and 3 were confirmed by comparison of the calculated and experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Compound 1 represents the first example of an abietane diterpenoid with a benzo[d]oxazole unit fused in the ring B of the abietane skeleton.

Identifying drug-target binding affinity (DTA) plays a critical role in early-stage drug discovery. Despite the availability of various existing methods, there are still two limitations. Firstly, sequence-based methods often extract features from fixed length protein sequences, requiring truncation or padding, which can result in information loss or the introduction of unwanted noise.

Introduction: Lonicera caerulea L. (blue honeysuckle) is a noteworthy fleshy-fruited tree and a prominent medicinal plant, which possesses notable characteristics such as exceptional resilience to winter conditions and early maturation, and the richest source of functional anthocyanins, particularly cyanidin-3-glucoside. The molecular mechanisms responsible for its freezing tolerance and anthocyanin biosynthesis remain largely unknown.

Background: Inflammation serves an essential function in the occurrence and progression of heart failure (HF), especially in the early stage. Lonicerae japonicae Flos (LJF), Angelicae sinensis Radix (ASR), and their compatibility (LJF+ASR) can inhibit excessive inflammation and have significant cardioprotective effects. However, the primary active ingredients and mechanism of LJF and ASR in anti-inflammatory and anti-HF effect remain to be elucidated.
