Article Synopsis
  • This study examines how Naotaifang (NTF) influences proteins linked to microglial polarization and glial scar formation in rats with cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (CIRI).
  • The research involved creating a rat CIRI model and dividing 48 rats into different treatment groups to evaluate the effects of NTF over 7 and 14 days.
  • Results indicated that NTF treatment improved cognitive function and reduced brain damage and anxiety levels compared to the untreated model groups, showing potential benefits for recovery from brain injuries.

This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of astragaloside Ⅳ in mice with ulcerative colitis(UC) and its effect on the percentage of peripheral blood T helper(Th17) cells. Following the establishment of UC mouse model with 2% sodium dextran sulfate(DSS), mice in the positive control group and low-and high-dose astragaloside Ⅳ groups were treated with corresponding drugs by gavage. Disease activity index(DAI) was calculated, and serum interleukin-17(IL-17), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) levels were assayed by ELISA.
