Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Mulberry (Morus alba L.) leaf is a well-known herbal medicine in China for thousands of years. Mulberry leaf can regulate arachidonic acid (ARA) metabolism disorder in obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, the active ingredients involved in this process are still unclear.

Aim Of Study: To explore the potential active ingredients in mulberry leaf against ARA metabolism disorder.

Materials And Methods: In this research, an efficient method combining affinity ultrafiltration, molecular docking, and network pharmacology was developed and applied to explore cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitors from mulberry leaf.

Results: A total 17 potential inhibitors were screened by affinity ultrafiltration assay and identified by high resolution mass spectrometry. In addition, 8 bioactive ingredients were obtained after re-evaluated by molecular docking and network pharmacology, and their inhibitory activities on COX-2 and 5-LOX were confirmed by in vitro inhibitory assays. The results of cell experiments showed that the expressions of COX-2 and 5-LOX were significantly suppressed by neochlorogenic acid, rutin, isoquercetin, and (-)-syringaresinol-4-O-glucoside .

Conclusion: Neochlorogenic acid, rutin, isoquercetin, and (-)-syringaresinol-4-O-glucoside may be the potential material basis of mulberry leaf in the regulation of ARA metabolism of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is frequently used to treat osteoarthritis (OA). Duhuo Jisheng decoction (DHJSD), a Chinese patent medicine, was commonly used Chinese herbal formula for the treatment of OA. In Western medicine, dual inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) enzyme has been proved to be a promising strategy to treat inflammatory diseases with reduced side effects.

Flaxseed linusorb (FL) has gradually garnered widespread attention in recent years because of its intriguing bioactivities like anti-inflammation, antimelanogenesis, and even anticancer effects. Based on its proven anti-inflammatory activity and mechanism, it is supposed that FL may also exhibit an effect in treating and preventing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rat models were established to investigate the potential therapeutic effect of FL, which were intervened with FL via gavage (50 and 100 mg/kg B.
