Lonicerae japonicae flos (L. japonicae flos, Thunb.) is one of the most commonly prescribed botanical drugs in the treatment or prevention of corona virus disease 2019. However, L. japonicae flos is often confused or adulterated with Lonicerae flos (L. flos, (D.Don) Spreng., Shanyinhua in Chinese). The anti-SARS-CoV2 activity and related differentiation method of L. japonicae flos and L. flos have not been documented. In this study, we established a chemical pattern recognition model for quality analysis of L. japonicae flos and L. flos based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) and anti-SARS-CoV2 activity. Firstly, chemical data of 59 batches of L. japonicae flos and L. flos were obtained by UHPLC, and partial least squares-discriminant analysis was applied to extract the components that lead to classification. Next, anti-SARS-CoV2 activity was measured and bioactive components were acquired by spectrum-effect relationship analysis. Finally, characteristic components were explored by overlapping feature extracted components and bioactive components. Accordingly, eleven characteristic components were successfully selected, identified, quantified and could be recommended as quality control marker. In addition, chemical pattern recognition model based on these eleven components was established to effectively discriminate L. japonicae flos and L. flos. In sum, the demonstrated strategy provided effective and highly feasible tool for quality assessment of natural products, and offer reference for the quality standard setting.

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.

Due to the structural diversity of flavonoids in functional plant foods and the inherent limitations of existing techniques, it is important to develop a simple and green (environmentally friendly) method of extracting flavonoids from plant foods. In this study, a method involving solvent extraction followed by automated solid-phase extraction was developed for extracting flavonoids from flos (JYH) and (SYH), both of which are widely used functional plant-based foods in Asian countries. For the optimisation of the solvent extraction method, solvent concentration (0.

Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) is a wall-less pathogen primarily transmitted through the respiratory tract, causing synovitis and airsacculitis in poultry, which leads to substantial economic losses in the poultry industry. China has a long-standing tradition of Chinese medicine with abundant medicinal resources, renowned for its safety, efficacy, and holistic regulatory effects. This study aims to screen a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compound with anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory properties and preliminarily validate its in vitro efficacy against MS infections.
