    Abstract Background: Jian Yun Qing Hua Decoction (JYQHD), a traditional Chinese medicine decoction, which has been applied in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC). We attempt to confirm the anti-gastric cancer effect of JYQHD and explore the mechanism of JYQHD.
    Methods: Acute toxicity test was used to understand the toxicity of JYQHD. We studied the expression and prognostic outcome of COL12A1 within GC tissues through the network databases. Using several web-based databases, we analyzed the major components and targets of JYQHD, as well as known therapeutic targets in gastric cancer. The Venn diagram was utilized to obtain the overlapped genes. Lentiviral vector, shRNAs and plasmids, were used to transfect GC cells. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK8), sphere formation, malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), reactive oxygen species (ROS), Fe
    Results: The results showed that JYQHD was non-toxic and safe. JYQHD inhibited growth and sphere formation ability through inducing the ferroptosis of GC cells, and suppressed the GC cells induced subcutaneous xenograft tumor growth. COL12A1 was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues, indicating poor prognosis. COL12A1 specifically enhanced GC cell progression and stemness via suppressing ferroptosis. JYQHD down-regulated COL12A1 in order to suppress the stemness of GC cells via inducing ferroptosis.
    Conclusion: COL12A1 inhibited ferroptosis and enhanced stemness in GC cells. JYQHD inhibited the development of GC cells by inhibiting cancer cell stemness via the ferroptosis pathway mediated by COL12A1.

    Abstract Lavandin, as an important cash crop, is cultivated in Kunming, Yun-Gui Plateau of China. For the special growing environment, Lavandin was grown here and used to investigate the changes in the yield and chemical compositions of essential oils extracted from the flowers in different seasons. The essential oils were extracted by hydro-distillation and analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Results indicated great changes in chemical composition depending on the season of harvesting. The yields of essential oils ranged from 2.0% to 3.8% among the seasons, and the highest yield was in the summer. Chemical composition data showed that the extracted oils were rich in oxygenated monoterpenes (55.4-81.4%), eucalyptol (38.7-49.8%), camphor (8.41-14.26%), α-bisabolol (6.6-25.5%), and linalool (4.6-12.5%). The contents of eucalyptol and α-bisabolol changed in a contrary trend with seasonal variations. The results provided new insight for Chinese Lavandin germplasm to be used in application and development, and reference to the researcher, the farmer, and investor for sustainable industrialization of the plant grown in the Yun-Gui Plateau of China, but also the similar plateau area of the sustainable developments.

    Abstract Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been served as complementary medicine for Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) treatment for a long time. Yun-Pi-Yi-Shen-Tong-Du-Tang (Y-Y-T) is a novel empirical formula designed by Prof. Chengping Wen. In this study, a retrospective investigation supported efficacy of Y-Y-T and then we deciphered the underlying molecular mechanism of the efficacy. Herbal ingredients and targeting proteins were collected from TCMID. PPI networks were constructed to further infer the relationship among Y-Y-T, drugs used for treating AS, differentially expressed genes of AS patients and AS disease proteins. Finally, it was suggested that TLR signaling pathway and T cell receptor signaling pathway may involve in the biological processes of AS progression and contribute to the curative effect and proteins such as JAK2, STAT3, HSP90AA1, TNF and PTEN were the key targets. Our systemic investigation to infer therapeutic mechanism of Y-Y-T for AS treatment provides a new insight in understanding TCM pharmacology.

    Abstract Background: Owing to its tediousness and monotony, traditional pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is difficult to ensure the correctness of exercise, and it is difficult for patients to adhere to treatment. We designed this study to evaluate and analyze the efficacy of optimized pelvic floor training of YUN combined with pelvic floor magnetic stimulation on female moderate stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and sexual function.
    Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. This study was carried out in 95 female patients with moderate SUI. The inclusion criteria were as follows: premenopausal women aged 25-45; moderate SUI; over 3 months of disease duration; informed consent and cooperation with treatment and follow-up. The participants in group 1 (control group, n=46) were treated with pelvic floor magnetic stimulation, while those in group 2 (trial group, n=49) were treated with pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with optimized pelvic floor training of YUN. Evaluations were scheduled before the treatment (0 week), after 6 weeks of treatment (6 weeks), and after 12 weeks of treatment (12 weeks). And compare the differences between the two groups.
    Results: There was no significant difference in age, body mass index (BMI), duration of disease, and abdominal leak point pressure (ALPP) between the two groups (P>0.05). The total effective rate of the trial group was higher than that of the control group (89.80%, 44/49
    Conclusions: Optimized pelvic floor training of YUN combined with pelvic floor magnetic are more effective for the treatment of female moderate SUI and sexual function. It has become a safe, effective, and well tolerated new type of pelvic floor functional reconstruction training method with good patient compliance.

    Abstract Objective: Animal studies have demonstrated a lipid-modulating effect of yun-cai tea. However, little is known about the lipid-lowering effect in humans.The aim of this study was to evaluate the lipid lowering effects and safety of yun-cai tea in patients with elevated lipid levels in a human clinical trial.
    Methods: This was a 12-week, randomly assigned, parallel-group, double-blind, and placebo-controlled pilot clinical study. Sixty primary hyperlipidemia patients were included and randomly assigned to the yun-cai tea group (30 patients) and the placebo group (30 patients), for 8 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks of follow-up. The primary endpoint was changes in plasma low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) at 8 weeks. The secondary endpoints included total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG).
    Results: Our results revealed no statistically signifificant differences in LDL-C and TC between the two groups. Despite the lack of a statistically signifificant difference in the level of TG between the two groups, a declining trend was noted. A signifificant reduction of TG was observed in the yun-cai tea group at week 8, compared to baseline (P=0.048). The incidence of stomach discomfort, gastroesophageal reflfl ux, diarrhea, and constipation was slightly higher in the yun-cai tea group. No other signifificant adverse events were found.
    Conclusion: It is unlikely that yun-cai tea used had a blood lipid reduction effect. Further larger scale clinical trials with a longer duration and larger dose are necessary.
