AI Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the antithrombotic effects of RR (a herbal remedy) and the mechanisms behind its action, using metabolomics and network pharmacology.
- The research involved creating a thrombosis model in rats, testing various doses of RR to evaluate its effectiveness, and identifying key metabolites and targets related to its antithrombotic properties.
- Results showed that RR significantly reduced thrombosis at a specific dose and highlighted important metabolites and proteins involved in its action, suggesting specific components of RR interact with key targets to provide therapeutic benefits.
Article Abstract
Background: (RR) has received attention for its antithrombotic effect. However, few studies have independently explored the bioactive components responsible for its antithrombotic bioactivity and the potential mechanism. We aimed to reveal the antithrombotic mechanisms of RR by using metabolomics integrated with network pharmacology.
Methods: A thrombosis model was established by intraperitoneal injection of type I carrageenan in rats, and antithrombotic function was evaluated at different doses of RR. Metabolomics was used to identify the differential metabolites in the serum. Network pharmacology was then applied to identify the potential targets for the antithrombotic activity of the RR. An integrated network of metabolomics and network pharmacology was constructed using Cytoscape. Finally, key targets were verified using molecular docking.
Results: RR at 5.4 g/kg significantly alleviated the thrombosis. Thirteen potentially significant metabolites were involved in the therapeutic effects of RR against thrombosis, most of which were regulated for recovery after RR treatment. An integrated analysis of metabolomics and network pharmacology showed that the antithrombosis effect of RR was closely associated with the regulation of PLA2G2A, PTGS1, ALOX5, and CYP2C9. Molecular docking showed high affinity between the key targets and components of RR. We speculated that the components of RR, such as catalpol, ferulic acid methyl ester, and methyl 4-hydroxycinnamate, might act on key proteins, including PLA2G2A, PTGS1, and ALOX5, to exert antithrombosis effects.
Conclusion: This study confirmed the antithrombotic effect of high-dose RR, revealed the antithrombotic mechanism and potential material basis, and laid the foundation for the antithrombotic clinical application of RR. Furthermore, it provides a successful case reference for screening natural herbal components and exploring their potential pharmacological mechanisms.

Improvement of post-stroke outcomes relies on patient adherence and appropriate therapy maintenance by physicians. However, comprehensive evaluation of these factors is often overlooked. This study assesses secondary stroke prevention by differentiating patient adherence to antithrombotic treatments (ATT) from physician-initiated interruptions or switches.

Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) have been widely used in studies on the electrophysiological features of neuronal networks. In classic MEA experiments, spike or burst rates and spike waveforms are the primary characteristics used to evaluate the neuronal network excitability. Here, we introduced a new method to assess the excitability using the voltage threshold of electrical stimulation.

CD73, an ectoenzyme responsible for adenosine production, is often elevated in immuno-suppressive tumor environments. Inhibition of CD73 activity holds great promise as a therapeutic strategy for CD73-expressing cancers. In this study, we have developed a therapeutic anti-human CD73 antibody cocktail, HB0045.

Alzheimer's is an advanced nervous disorder related to aging. The present study aimed to determine the effect of eight-week aerobic training, along with the consumption of Linalool, Cineole, and β-Bourbonene, on the prevention and improvement of Alzheimer's disease. Mice were randomly assigned to 8 groups: control group, mice induced with Alzheimer's disease treated with β-amyloid (Alzheimer group), Alzheimer's mice treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medicine (Linalool with a concentration of 25 mg/kg, Cineole with a concentration of 100 mg/kg, and β-Bourbonene with a concentration of 10 μg/ml) by gavage for 8 weeks (Alzheimer+Biocompounds group), Alzheimer's mice treated with aerobic exercise with a moderate intensity treadmill for 8 weeks (Alzheimer's+Training group), Alzheimer's mice treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medicine and aerobic exercise for 8 weeks (Alzheimer+Biocompounds+Training group), healthy mice initially treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medication (Linalool with a concentration of 25 mg/kg, Cineol with a concentration of 100 mg/kg, and β-Bourbonene with a concentration of 0.
