    Abstract Background: Resistance to chemotherapy in gastric cancer (GC) is a ubiquitous challenge for its treatment. Yi-qi-hua-yu-jie-du decoction (YJD), an empirical formula in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), demonstrated survival-prolonging functions in patients with GC. Previous research has shown that YJD could also inhibit drug resistance in GC. However, the precise mechanisms for how YJD accomplishes this remain incompletely explained.
    Purpose: The research aimed to identify differential metabolic characteristics in cisplatin-resistant GC and investigate whether YJD can target these differences to suppress GC drug resistance.
    Methods: Metabolomic analysis was conducted to identify metabolic disparities between cisplatin-resistant and parental GC cells, as well as metabolic modifications resulting from YJD intervention in cisplatin-resistant GC cells. The effect of YJD on ferroptosis stimulation was assessed by measuring the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), iron ions, the reduced glutathione (GSH) to oxidised glutathione (GSSG) ratio, and alterations in mitochondrial morphology. Western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) were employed to verity the mechanisms of YJD-triggered ferroptosis through GPX4 and NRF2 overexpression models, alongside the AKT activator SC79. In vivo validation was conducted using nude mouse xenograft models.
    Results: Cisplatin-resistant GC exhibited altered GSH/GPX4 metabolism, and ferroptosis was a significantly enriched cell death pattern with YJD treatment in cisplatin-resistant GC cells. Ferroptosis biomarkers, including ROS, MDA, iron ions, the GSH/GSSG ratio, and mitochondrial morphology, were remarkably changed with the YJD intervention. Mechanistic experiments demonstrated that YJD inhibited the phosphorylation cascade activity of the AKT/GSK3β pathway, thereby reducing NRF2 expression. The level of GPX4, a crucial enzyme involved in glutathione metabolism, was attenuated, facilitating ferroptosis induction in cisplatin-resistant GC.
    Conclusion: The research reveals, for the first time, changes in GSH/GPX4 metabolism in cisplatin-resistant GC cells based on metabolomic analysis. YJD induced ferroptosis in cisplatin-resistant GC by inhibiting GPX4 through the AKT/GSK3β/NRF2 pathway, thus attenuating the cisplatin drug resistance in GC. Our findings identify metabolic changes in cisplatin-resistant GC and establish a theoretical framework for YJD on tackling drug resistance in GC through ferroptosis.

    Abstract Sheng-Ji Hua-Yu (SJHY) formula has been proved to reduce the severity of diabetic wound healing without significant adverse events in our previous clinical trials. However, based on multi-target characteristics, the regulatory network among herbs, ingredients, and hub genes remains to be elucidated. The current study aims to identify the biomarkers of the SJHY formula for the treatment of diabetic wound healing. First, a network of components and targets for the SJHY formula was constructed using network pharmacology. Second, the ClusterONE algorithm was used to build a modular network and identify hub genes along with kernel pathways. Third, we verified the kernel targets by molecular docking to select hub genes. In addition, the biomarkers of the SJHY formula were validated by animal experiments in a diabetic wound healing mice model. The results revealed that the SJHY formula downregulated the mRNA expression of

    Abstract Background: Hua-Zhuo-Kai-Yu decoction (HZKY) is an empirical formula in traditional Chinese medicine that is derived from the classic ancient prescription Da-Chai-Hu decoction. It has been demonstrated to have good clinical effects on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the mechanism by which HZKY acts on NAFLD remains unclear. In this study, network pharmacology was used to predict the potential targets of HZKY in NAFLD. Additionally, in vivo studies were conducted to validate the crucial pathways determined using network pharmacology. Methods: Active compounds in HZKY were screened using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology and Analysis Platform and Traditional Chinese Medicine Integrated Database, and the potential targets of compounds in HZKY were predicted using Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology and Analysis Platform, Traditional Chinese Medicine Integrated Database, Bioinformatics Analysis Tool for Molecular mechANism of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and PUBCHEM. In addition, targets involved in NAFLD were obtained from the GeneCards and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man databases, and the potential targets of HZKY in NAFLD were identified based on the common potential targets between HZKY and NAFLD. Cytoscape 3.7.2 was used to visualize crosstalk and identify the key genes from the potential targets of HZKY in NAFLD. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis was conducted to predict the pathways by which HZKY acts on NAFLD. Rats were fed with a high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce NAFLD and were then orally administered HZKY. Serum lipid levels and hematoxylin and eosin and oil red O staining results were assessed to determine the effects of HZKY in NALFD. Furthermore, the mechanisms of action of HZKY in NAFLD, as determined using network pharmacology, were validated based on the inhibition of apoptosis in the liver using Western blotting. Results: A total of 269 potential targets of 130 active compounds in HZKY were identified (oral bioavailability ≥ 30% and drug-like ≥ 0.18), and 62 targets were selected after being compared with the targets of NAFLD. Bcl-2-associated X protein (BAX), caspase3 (CASP3), and caspase9 (CASP9) were the key genes with the highest values of network connectivity. In addition, 45 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways, including apoptosis, fatty acid synthesis, and estrogen signaling, were enriched according to the selected genes of HZKY. In vivo studies showed that the serum levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were significantly elevated and the serum level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was decreased in the model group compared with those in the control group (P < 0.01 for all). The expressions of BAX, CASP9, and CASP3 were upregulated in the model group compared with those in the control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, and P < 0.01, respectively), while HZKY treatment decreased the body weights and serum levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and increased the serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in NAFLD model rats (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.05, and P < 0.05, respectively). Hematoxylin and eosin and oil red O staining indicated that HZKY treatment reduced steatosis in the hepatocytes. Moreover, HZKY treatment inhibited apoptosis in the liver by downregulating the expressions of BAX, CASP3, and CASP9 (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, and P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that HZKY improves NAFLD by inhibiting apoptosis in the liver by reducing the levels of BAX, CASP3, and CASP9.
