Eucommiae Cortex is an authentic medicinal material with broad growing areas( such as Hunan and Sichuan provinces in China. It is well-known for its efficacy in tonifying liver and kidney,strengthening muscles and bones,and stabilizing fetus. It has also been proven in pharmacology to possess the functions such as lowering blood pressure and lipids. Hence,Eucommiae Cortex has attracted increasing attention. The current quality standards of Eucommiae Cortex vary in different countries or regions. The quality of Eucommiae Cortex products on the market is affected by mix-ups of non-medicinal parts and insufficient growth years. In view of these problems,this paper summarizes the current quality standards and research progress of Eucommiae Cortex in China and overseas,aiming to provide a reference for the establishment of the quality standards of Eucommiae Cortex.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how components of Eucommiae cortex can help treat heart failure after a heart attack, using advanced network and molecular docking techniques to identify its active substances.
- Medioresinol, one such component, was shown to improve cell function damaged by low oxygen and glucose, showcasing anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits in lab experiments.
- Key signaling pathways affected by Eucommiae cortex include PI3K/AKT/mTOR, which play important roles in heart function and stress responses, with molecular docking results indicating that selected compounds bind effectively to critical target proteins.

Consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) has been implicated in cognitive deficits and gastrointestinal dysfunction in humans, with the gut microbiota emerging as a pivotal mediator of these diet-associated pathologies. The introduction of plant-based polysaccharides into the diet as a therapeutic strategy to alleviate such conditions is gaining attention. Nevertheless, the mechanistic paradigm by which polysaccharides modulate the gut microbiota remains largely undefined.
