AI Article Synopsis
- The study examined the impact of different levels of Astragalus propinquus polysaccharides on the growth and immune response of Channa argus over 56 days.
- Results revealed that these polysaccharides improved growth measures, such as body weight and growth rate, while also enhancing antioxidant activity and lowering indicators of inflammation and stress in the fish.
- The optimum dosage identified for maximizing these benefits was 1000 mg/kg, which positively influenced gene expression related to inflammation and immune function in various tissues.
Article Abstract
The present study investigated the effects of dietary Astragalus Propinquus schischkin polysaccharides on growth, immune responses, antioxidants responses and inflammation-related genes expression in Channa argus. Channa argus were randomly divided into 5 groups and fed 5 levels diets of A. propinquus schischkin polysaccharides (0, 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg) for 56 days. The results showed, dietary A. propinquus schischkin polysaccharides addition can increase the final body weight, weight gain and specific growth rate, decrease the feed conversion ratio of Channa argus. And dietary A. propinquus schischkin polysaccharides supplementation can increase the levels of serum superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, lysozyme, complement 3, complement 4, immunoglobulin M and alkaline phosphatase, decrease the levels of serum malondialdehyde, cortisol, aspartate aminotransferase and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase. Furthermore, dietary A. propinquus schischkin polysaccharides can decrease the gene expression levels of interleukin-1β, interleukin-, tumor necrosis factor-α and nuclear factor-κB, increase the gene expression levels of glucocorticoid receptor in liver, spleen, kidney, intestine. To sum up, dietary A. propinquus schischkin polysaccharides can accelerate growth, enhance immune responses and antioxidants responses, regulate inflammation-related genes expression in Channa argus and the optimum amount is 1000 mg/kg.

Astragaloside IV (ASIV) is the primary pharmacologically active compound found in Schischkin, which has potential protective effects on cardiac function. However, there are almost no systematic evaluations of ASIV for the treatment of heart failure (HF). Preclinical studies published before 27 December 2022, were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, SinoMed, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP information database, and Wanfang Data information site.

Background: Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) is the main active component of "Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bunge, a synonym of Astragalus propinquus Schischkin (Fabaceae)", which demonstrated to be useful for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). However, due to the low bioavailability and barrier permeability of AS-IV, the gut microbiota may be an important key regulator for AS-IV to work.

Schischkin and Bunge (AS) have been clinically used as adjunctive drugs in the treatment of myocardial ischemia (MI). However, the effect and mechanism of AS on MI have yet to be fully recognized. Here, we explored the cardioprotective effect of their combined use, and the mechanism of promoting angiogenesis through pericyte recruitment.
