    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Yu-Ping-Feng-San (YPF) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula that has therapeutic effects on allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. However, its potential efficacy and mechanism in the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) has not been extensively illustrated.
    Aim of the study: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and possible mechanisms of YPF in AD pathogenesis.
    Methods: Network pharmacology and GEO data mining were adopted to firstly identify the potential mechanisms of YPF on AD. Then DNCB induced-AD murine model was established to test the efficacy of YPF and verify its effects on inflammatory cytokines and NF-κB pathway. In addition, molecular docking was performed to detect the binding affinity of YPF's active components with NF-κB pathway related molecules.
    Results: Network pharmacology and human data mining suggested that YPF may act on the NF-κB pathway in AD pathogenesis. With DNCB mice model, we found that YPF significantly improved AD symptoms, reduced SCORAD scores, and alleviated skin tissue inflammation in mice. At the same time, the expression of inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α, sPLA2-IIA and IL-6, was down-regulated. Moreover, YPF suppressed TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway in situ in a dose-dependent manner. Molecular docking further confirmed that seven compounds in YPF had exceptional binding properties with TNF-α, IL-6 and TLR4.
    Conclusion: YPF may help the recovery of AD by inhibiting the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway, which provides novel insights for the treatment of AD by YPF.

    Abstract Background: Xiao-ai-ping injection (XAPI) combined with chemotherapy has potential efficacy and less side effects in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At present, there are many clinical studies on XAPI combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of NSCLC, but the results are different. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of XAPI combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of NSCLC by meta-analysis system.
    Methods: The databases to be searched include PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang database, Chinese Scientific Journal Database, and so on. In addition, relevant journals and magazines will manually search in various fields as supplements. The search date is set from the establishment of the database until July 8, 2023. The 2 researchers will use Endnote X9 software for literature screening and data extraction and independently evaluate the quality. We then assessed the quality and risk of inclusion in the study and observed outcome indicators.
    Results: A total of 28 trials were included in this study, 1947 patients with NSCLC (974 receiving XAPI combined chemotherapy and 973 receiving chemotherapy alone). The results of meta-analysis showed that: Objective tumor response rate of NSCLC (P < .00001). Improvement in Karnofsky performance score of NSCLC (P < .00001). Quality of life score of NSCLC (P < .00001). The result of CD3 + (P < .00001). The result of CD4 + (P < .00001). The result of CD8 + (P < .00001). The result of CD4+/CD8 + (P = .0001). Leukopenia (P < .00001). Thrombocytopenia (P < .00001). Hemoglobin decrease (P < .00001). Liver function (P = .04). Nausea and vomiting (P < .00001).
    Conclusion: Our meta-analyses demonstrated that XAPI adjunct with chemotherapy can improve the patient quality of life, reduce adverse reactions, and enhanced immune function, the treatment is effective and high safety. Which suggests that it might be used for NSCLC. However, a large sample of randomized controlled trials are needed to further study the long-term efficacy of XAPI.

    Abstract Traditional Chinese medication is increasingly used to treat a wide range of human chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases and cancers. This study was designed to explore whether ka-sai-ping (KSP), a novel traditional Chinese medicine developed by us, prevents gastric cancer growths and to investigate the underlying mechanism. The xenograft model of mouse gastric cancer was established by injecting MFCs into nude mouse subcutaneously. Cell autophagy was assessed by MDC staining. Lysosome and mitochondria were detected by Lyso-Tracker Red and Mito-Traker Green staining. Incubation of cultured mouse gastric cancer cell line MFCs with KSP for 48 hours, concentration-dependently reduced cell survivals and activated autophagy, which were accompanied with damaged lysosomes and mitochondria.

    Abstract Background: This study uses the tandem mass tag (TMT)-labeled quantitative proteomic analysis to identify potential therapeutic protein targets of a Chinese prescription called Tang-Yi-Ping (TYP) for the treatment of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in rats.
    Methods: A total of 31 specific-pathogen free (SPF) male Wistar rats were used in our study. Ten were randomly selected as a control group, while 21 received a high-sugar and high-fat diet combined with an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin to establish IGT subjects. After eliminating 2 rats without successful modeling, 19 were randomly divided into a TYP group (n=9) and IGT model group (n=10). The TYP group was given a TYP decoction of 6.36 mg/kg-1/d-1. After 8 weeks of intervention, blood glucose-related indicators were measured, and cell morphology was observed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. TMT-labeled proteomic analysis was applied to detect the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the pancreases of the three groups. The intersection of the DEPs in both the TYP group and IGT model group underwent Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses to identify the related biological functions and signal transduction pathways. Finally, western blot (WB) was used to verify the TMT proteomics results.
    Results: TYP can effectively reduce blood glucose and improve islet morphology in IGT rats. We identified a total of 16 potential therapeutic protein targets of TYP, 4 of which were upregulated, while 12 were downregulated, including Rbp4, Fam3b, Flot2, etc. [fold change (FC) >1.1, P<0.05]. The significant signal transduction pathways included arginine and proline metabolism, glyceride metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, mTOR, Wnt, and insulin signaling pathways.
    Conclusions: For anti-IGT therapy, we found TYP regulates 16 protein targets, multiple biological functions, and multiple signal transduction pathways. This study thus makes a significant contribution to identifying new potential therapeutic targets for treating IGT.

    Abstract Cisplatin is one of the first line anti-cancer drugs prescribed for treatment of solid tumors; however, the chemotherapeutic drug resistance is still a major obstacle of cisplatin in treating cancers. Yu Ping Feng San (YPFS), a well-known ancient Chinese herbal combination formula consisting of Astragali Radix, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma and Saposhnikoviae Radix, is prescribed as a herbal decoction to treat immune disorders in clinic. To understand the fast-onset action of YPFS as an anti-cancer drug to fight against the drug resistance of cisplatin, we provided detailed analyses of intracellular cisplatin accumulation, cell viability, and expressions and activities of ATP-binding cassette transporters and glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) in YPFS-treated lung cancer cell lines. In cultured A549 or its cisplatin-resistance A549/DDP cells, application of YPFS increased accumulation of intracellular cisplatin, resulting in lower cell viability. In parallel, the activities and expressions of ATP-binding cassette transporters and GSTs were down-regulated in the presence of YPFS. The expression of p65 subunit of NF-κB complex was reduced by treating the cultures with YPFS, leading to a high ratio of Bax/Bcl-2, i.e. increasing the rate of cell death. Prim-O-glucosylcimifugin, one of the abundant ingredients in YPFS, modulated the activity of GSTs, and then elevated cisplatin accumulation, resulting in increased cell apoptosis. The present result supports the notion of YPFS in reversing drug resistance of cisplatin in lung cancer cells by elevating of intracellular cisplatin, and the underlying mechanism may be down regulating the activities and expressions of ATP-binding cassette transporters and GSTs.

    Abstract We thank Dr. Mohammadi and other colleagues for their interest in our research and valuable comments about the integrated climatic assessment indicator (ICAI) of wheat production (doi: https://doi.org//10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.01.059). Dr. Mohammadi brought up a discussion concerning the modeling details of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms used in our study in a recent letter to the editor (doi: https://doi.org//10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.04.055). In our research, we use AI algorithms to construct the nonlinear relationships between wheat yields and meteorological factors. In addition, by using the algorithms and transformed indicators, the yield levels of rain-fed wheat were analyzed and predicted. Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF) are powerful modeling methods used in agro-ecosystems and were applied in the study. The modeling details of SVM and RF in the design of ICAI for wheat production are provided in this discussion including the determination of input factors of the models and the selection process of hyper parameters of the models. The climatic factors such as temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, etc. were selected as the input of models during key growth stages of winter wheat by means of correlation analysis between de-trended wheat yields and meteorological factors. Grid search and experience-based search combined with 5 times of 5-fold cross validation were used during parameter selection. The spatial and temporal prediction accuracy of classification models achieved over 80% and 56% respectively in our research. The ICAI transformed from model output can be used to predict yield levels of winter wheat in Jiangsu and it will help decision makers to take effective measures in the process of disaster prevention. In the future, more efficient and precise parameter selection methods need to be investigated to simplify the modeling process and improve the prediction accuracy.
