    Abstract Background: Zhen-Wu-Bu-Qi Decoction (ZWBQD), a traditional Chinese medicine formula comprising Poria, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens, Radix Codonopsis and Rhizoma Coptidis, is used for treating ulcerative colitis (UC). In a previous study, we have reported ZWBQD mitigates the severity of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice.
    Hypothesis: In this study, we aimed to understand the systemic actions and underlying mechanisms of ZWBQD on experimental colitis in mice.
    Methods: We used multi-omics techniques and immunoblotting approach to study the pharmacological actions and mechanisms of ZWBQD in DSS-induced chronic colitic mice.
    Results: We showed that ZWBQD exhibited potent anti-inflammatory properties and significantly protected DSS-induced colitic mice against colon injury by regulating the PI3K-AKT, MAPK signaling pathway and NF-κB signaling pathways. We also revealed that ZWBQD significantly ameliorated gut microbiota dysbiosis and abnormalities of tryptophan catabolites induced by DSS.
    Conclusions: We demonstrated that the therapeutic effects of ZWBQD on experimental colitis are mediated by regulating multiple signaling pathways and modulation of gut microbiota. Our study employed an integrative strategy to elucidate novel mechanisms of ZWBQD, which provides new insights into the development of Chinese herbal medicine-based therapeutics for UC.

    Abstract There is currently no safe or effective treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is defined as recurrent and persistent intestinal inflammation. Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) has been shown to be associated with the pathogenesis of IBD, and the JAK2/STAT5 signalling pathway has demonstrated much promise as a novel therapeutic target for IBD. In this study, we first evaluated levels of TSLP in dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)-induced IBD mice. Second, we applied tezepelumab, an anti-TSLP monoclonal antibody (20 μg per mouse, intraperitoneally), to DSS-induced IBD mice and quantified the signs of histopathological change, intestinal inflammation, and integrity of the mucosal barrier. In addition, the effect of DSS and/or tezepelumab on the phosphorylation of the JAK/STAT pathway was investigated. TSLP expression levels were elevated in DSS-induced IBD mice, whereas TSLP antibody treatment suppressed the pathological features associated with IBD and alleviated intestinal inflammation and mucosal barrier disruption. Moreover, level of phosphorylated JAK2/STAT5 were increased in DSS-induced IBD mice, but were strongly decreased in the presence of tezepelumab. Our findings suggest that targeting TSLP via the JAK2/STAT5 signalling pathway may be an effective approach for the treatment of IBD.

    Abstract Phytochrome-interacting factors (PIFs) are essential transcription factors for plant growth, development, and stress responses. Although PIF genes have been extensively studied in many plant species, they have not been thoroughly investigated in wheat. Here, we identified 18 PIF genes in cultivated hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L). Phylogenetic analysis, exon-intron structures, and motif compositions revealed the presence of four distinct groups of TaPIFs. Genome-wide collinearity analysis of PIF genes revealed the evolutionary history of PIFs in wheat, Oryza sativa, and Brachypodium distachyon. Cis-regulatory element analysis suggested that TaPIF genes indicated participated in plant development and stress responses. Subcellular localization assays indicated that TaPIF2-1B and TaPIF4-5B were transcriptionally active. Both were found to be localized to the nucleus. Gene expression analyses demonstrated that TaPIFs were primarily expressed in the leaves and were induced by various biotic and abiotic stresses and phytohormone treatments. This study provides new insights into PIF-mediated stress responses and lays a strong foundation for future investigation of PIF genes in wheat.
