[Effects and mechanisms of Gegen Qinlian Decoction in inhibiting M1 polarization of macrophages under inflammatory hypoxia microenvironment].

To explore the effect and mechanism of Gegen Qinlian Decoction(GQD) in inhibiting M1 polarization of macrophages under inflammatory hypoxia by simulating intestinal hypoxia microenvironment in vitro. A tri-gas incubator was used to simulate normal physiological hypoxia of the colon and inflammatory hypoxia microenvironments of ulcerative colitis(UC). RAW264.

LAP+CD4+T cells regulate the anti-tumor role of CIK cells in colorectal cancer through IL-10 and TGF-β.

The rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing. Adoptive immune cell therapy (ACT) is a research hotspot in CRC treatment, and the common adoptive cells are cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK). The problem of ACT is that some regulatory T cells (Treg) will affect the efficacy.

Roles, molecular mechanisms, and signaling pathways of TMEMs in neurological diseases.

Transmembrane protein family members (TMEMs) span the entire lipid bilayer and act as channels that allow the transport of specific substances through biofilms. The functions of most TMEMs are unexplored. Numerous studies have shown that TMEMs are involved in the pathophysiological processes of various nervous system diseases, but the specific mechanisms of TMEMs in the pathogenesis of diseases remain unclear.

[Study on effect of anemoside B4 in improving COPD rats by regulating IL-12/STAT4 and IL-4/STAT6 signaling pathways].

To study the effect of anemoside B4 on rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Seventy-two SD male rats were randomly divided into blank group and model group.The method of exposure to cigarette smoke and combined with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to replicate the rat model of COPD.

Effects of aromatherapy on sleep disorders: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The progress of modern society and changes in lifestyle have not only increased the proportion of sub-healthy people, but also caused many people to suffer from sleep disorders and mental anxiety. Long-term lack of high-quality sleep will not only cause psychological problems such as anxiety and fatigue, but also cause physical abnormalities, such as abnormal hormone secretion, weakened immunity, neuroendocrine disorders, and high blood pressure. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of aromatherapy in improving sleep quality in people with sleep disorders.

[Effect of Huangqin Decoction on pyroptosis pathway of NLRP3/caspase-1 in mice with ulcerative colitis].

To explore the effect of Huangqin Decoction on ulcerative colitis(UC) pyroptosis, and to explain the mechanism of pyroptosis based on NOD-like receptor thermoprotein domain 3(NLRP3)/cysteine proteinase 1(caspase-1) pathway. The animal model of UC induced with 3% dextran sodium sulfate(DSS) was established. The experimental animals were divided into control group, model group, low-dose(4.

[Pharmacokinetic study on five components in phthalide target areas of Chaxiong and its β-CD inclusion compounds based on UPLC-MS/MS].

This study aims to establish a method for the determination of the concentration of five main components of phthalide target areas of Chaxiong(CPTA) and its inclusion of β-CD in the plasma of rats, and determine the pharmacokinetic parameters, absolute bioavailability and relative bioavailability of CPTA/β-CD inclusion compound in vivo. The plasma concentrations of senkyunolide A, N-butylphthalide, new osthol lactone, Z-ligustilide and butenyl phthalide were determined with UPLC-MS/MS. The content determination was conducted at the chromatographic conditions as follows: Shim-pack GIST C_(18)-AQ HP column(2.

[Design and application of quality standard of Dao-di herbs].

Dao-di herbs, which are widely recognized as medicinal materials with a high quality and good efficacy in clinic, are now facing the dilemma of absence of standard. This study focused on a pivotal scientific problem of design and application of quality standard of Dao-di herbs, and systematically illustrated the general rules for the quality standard of Dao-di herbs involving "four rules, six core contents, and three key methods". The quality standard of Dao-di herbs shall be fully based on literatures as well as habitat, planting/breeding, processing, characters, chemical-pharmacological/toxic data.

[Correlation between water state and texture during moistening of Paeoniae Radix Alba by LF-NMR/MRI].

The changes of active ingredients content, moisture status and texture characteristics during the moistening of Paeoniae Radix Alba were studied by low-field NMR and imaging(LF-NMR/MRI) and texture analyzer, so as to analyze the correlation between LF-NMR parameters, texture characteristics and active ingredient content of Paeoniae Radix Alba during the moistening at diffe-rent times. The results showed that MRI technology could directly, vividly and accurately characterize the degree of moistening and the process of water migration, and the degree of moistening was consistent with the judgment results of traditional experience. The characteristics of moisture migration and moisture phase state in the moistening process of Paeoniae Radix Alba were that the total water content increased and existed in the form of free water, with an increased moisture mobility.

[Expression characteristics of inflammatory and apoptosis factors and regulatory effect of anemoside B4 in mice with acute kidney injury].

This paper was aimed to observe the effect of anemoside B4(hereinafter referred to as B4) on cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in mice, and to investigate its possible mechanism in renal protection from inflammation and apoptosis aspects. Mice were divided into normal group, model group, dexamethasone positive group and B4 high, middle and low dose groups(5, 2.5, and 1.

Biological mechanisms of premature ovarian failure caused by psychological stress based on support vector regression.

Psychological stress has become a common and important cause of premature ovarian failure (POF). Therefore, it is very important to explore the mechanisms of POF resulting from psychological stress. Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into control and model groups.
