Aims: Intestinal ischemia reperfusion (II/R) is a common clinical emergency. Ferroptosis is reported to play a role in II/R injury. Our previous studies revealed that corilagin significantly attenuates intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injuries. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is unclear and requires further study.
Materials And Methods: DAO, GSSG/T-GSH, MDA, and Fe were measured by assay kits, 4-HNE was assessed by IHC, and 15-LOX was measured by ELISA. Mitochondrial damage was observed by TEM and cellular oxidation levels were detected by C11-BODIPY 581/591 and DHE probes. LC3, p62, Beclin1, ACSL4, GPX4, NCOA4, and ferritin expression were examined by WB in vivo and in vitro. IF, co-IF, q-PCR, and constructed NCOA4-knock-down IEC-6 cells were used to evaluate the role of NCOA4 in the effect of corilagin against II/R injury. Temporal and nucleoplasmic variations with or without corilagin were observed by WB. Co-IP and molecular docking were used to investigate the NCOA4-ferritin interaction.
Key Findings: Corilagin attenuated II/R-induced ferroptosis both in vitro and in vivo. Further study revealed that the anti-ferroptosis bioactivity of corilagin might be due to the modulation of iron homeostasis via inhibition of ferritinophagy in an NCOA4-dependent manner.
Significance: Corilagin might be a potential therapeutic agent for II/R-induced tissue injury.

Aim: The existence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is extremely widespread, causing serious diseases in patients with low immune function. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and mechanism of Corilagin in the control of CMV infection, in order to provide scientific basis for the control of CMV infection.
Methods: Our study employed an animal model in Balb/c mice, infected with MCMV, alongside cellular models in HFF cells and THP-1 cells, stimulated with HCMV.

Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and long-term disability worldwide. Previous studies have found that corilagin has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic and other pharmacological activities and has a protective effect against cardiac and cerebrovascular injury.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of corilagin against ischemic stroke and to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms using network pharmacology, molecular docking, and animal and cell experiments.

Objective: To investigate the effects of corilagin on inflammation and collagen deposition in ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthma mouse model and uncover the mechanism.
Methods: We constructed a mouse model of OVA-induced asthma. Enzyme-linked-immunosorbent serologic assays were conducted to detect the effects of corilagin on cytokines and Immunoglobulin E (IgE) production.

Sepsis is a dysregulated systemic inflammatory response caused by infection that leads to multiple organ injury and high mortality without effective treatment. Corilagin, a natural polyphenol extracted from traditional Chinese herbs, exhibits strong anti-inflammatory properties. However, the role for Corilagin in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis and the molecular mechanisms underlying this process have not been completely explored.
