A pharmacological network of "component/target/pathway" for Rhizoma coptidis against type 2 diabetes (T2D) was established by network-pharmacology, and the active components of Rhizoma coptidis and its mechanism were explored. A literature-based and database study of the components of Rhizoma coptidis was carried out and screened by ADME parameters. The targets of Rhizoma coptidis were predicted by the ligand similarity method. Related pathways were analyzed with databases, and software was used to construct a "component/target/path" network. The mechanism was further confirmed by GEO database with R software. A total of 12 active components were screened from Rhizoma coptidis, involving 57 targets including MAPK1, STAT3, INSR, and 38 signaling pathways were associated with T2D. Related signaling pathways included essential pathways for T2D such as insulin resistance, and pathways that had indirect effect on T2D. It was suggested that Rhizoma coptidis may exert its effects against T2D through multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway forms.

This study aims to investigate the effect and mechanism of the herb pair Agrimoniae Herba-Coptidis Rhizoma in inhibiting angiogenesis in the colorectal cancer inflammatory microenvironment by using the method of network pharmacology and the zebrafish model. The method of network pharmacology was employed to obtain the active components, potential core targets, and signaling pathways regulated by the herb pair in inhibiting angiogenesis in the inflammatory microenvironment of colorectal cancer, on the basis of which the underlying mechanism was predicted. The zebrafish model of colorectal cancer was established, and the inflammatory microenvironment was modeled.

This study investigated the effects of Agrimoniae Herba-Coptidis Rhizoma(XHC-HL)-medicated serum on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of human colorectal cancer HT29 and HCT116 cells via the autophagy mediated by lysosome-associated membrane protein type 2A(LAMP2A). Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to explore the role of LAMP2A in the development and progression of colorectal cancer. Western blot(WB) was used to detect the expression of LAMP2A protein in colorectal cancer cell lines.

This study employed supramolecular chemistry of traditional Chinese medicine to compare the material basis between different decocting methods(co-decocting and single decocting) and explained the chemical basis of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma-Coptidis Rhizoma in alleviating the disadvantage of bitter and cold medicines damaging the stomach. The spectroscopic differences between the co-decoction and single decoctions were characterized by ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum, infrared spectrum, and circular dichroism spectrum. Five characteristic alkaloids, such as berberine, were selected as the indicators to compare the sample solubility and dissolution of medicinal components between the co-decoction and single decoctions by high performance liquid chromatography.

Background: Pulsatilla chinensis (PC) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) known for its beneficial activities. It has been historically used to treat dysentery, vaginal trichomoniasis, bacterial infections, and malignant tumors. The therapeutic potential of PC in the management of hypercholesterolemia remains largely unexplored.

Background: The results of Study 1 we have published proved that medium and high doses of Gegen Qinlian Decoction (GQD) were effective in treating type 2 diabetes (T2D) with damp-heat syndrome. However, whether the main drug of GQD in treating T2D was or has always been a hot topic of debate among many doctors. Therefore, we conducted Study 2 and Study 3 to determine the main drug of GQD for treating T2D.
