Abstract	Objectives: Jie Geng Tang (JGT) is an ancient traditional Chinese herbal decoction that exhibits various pharmacological activities, however, is poorly understood in the sensitivity of lung cancer to chemotherapy. Here, we explored the effect of JGT on sensitizing cisplatin (DDP)-resistant A549 cells (A549/DDP). Methods: Cell viability was assessed using cell counting kit-8 assay. Flow cytometry was applied to detected cell apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Western blotting and qRT-PCR were performed to determine protein and mRNA levels. Key findings: The results demonstrated that DDP co-treatment with JGT significantly increased the cytotoxicity of A549/DDP cells and exhibited efficacy in suppressing the migration and proliferation. The rate of apoptosis was increased by co-treatment with DDP and JGT, along with a higher rate of Bax/Bcl-2, and increased loss of MMP. Furthermore, the combination promoted ROS accumulation and increased γ-H2AX levels. Moreover, Nrf2 levels were suppressed in a dose- and time-dependent manner, Nrf2 stability was reduced following treatment with JGT. Notably, the combination induced inhibition of the Nrf2/ARE pathway at the mRNA and protein levels. Conclusions: Collectively, these results indicate that co-treatment with JGT and DDP can be considered a combinational approach to treating DDP resistance.

Abstract	A comprehensive monitoring and risk assessment of arsenic (As) pollution concerning surface water and sediment is performed in the Jie River basin, where gold smelting enterprises are concentrated. The study area is divide into six regions, labeled as A, B, C, D, E, and F, from sewage outlets to downstream. Results shows that with far away from the sewage outlets, the total As concentrations in water and sediment gradually decrease from regions A to F. However, in region F, the concentration of bioavailable As significantly increases in the sediment due to the higher pH, leading to the transformation of As(V) into more mobile As(III). In sediment, Paracladius sp. exhibits strong resistance to As pollution in sediment, which can potentially elevate the risk of disease transmission. In water bodies, diatoms and euglena are the main phytoplankton in the Jie River while toxic cyanobacteria exhibits lower resistance to As pollution. Overall, measures should be taken to ecologically remediate the sediment in downstream while implementing appropriate isolation methods to prevent the spread of highly contaminated sediments from regions near sewage outlets.

Abstract	Ethnopharmacological relevance: Huang-Lian-Jie-Du decoction (HLJD), a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, has been implicated as effective in treating colitis, depression and inflammation-related diseases. Whether HLJD decoction could ameliorate colitis-induced depression was still unknown and the underlying mechanism was needed to be clarified. Aim of the study: Our study aimed to explore the effect and the underlying mechanism of HLJD treatment on colitis-induced depression and the involvement of the inflammatory factors and microglial-activated related genes. Materials and methods: The chronic colitis model was established by treating male mice with 1% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 8 weeks. One week after DSS-treated, HLJD decoction was administered orally with 2 and 4 g/kg daily for 7 weeks. Behavior tests (Open field/Elevated plus maze/Novel object recognition) and TUNEL staining were then assessed. The expression of inflammatory-related genes and microglial dysregulation were measured by RT-PCR and the expression of Trem2, Danp12 and Iba1 were assessed by immunofluorescence methods. Results: Depressive-like behaviors were observed in mice treated with DSS, which suffered colitis. Compared to normal control (NC-V) mice, the density of TUNEL + cells in the habenula (Hb), hippocampus (HIP), and cortex were significantly higher in colitis (DSS-V) mice, especially in Hb. Compared to NC-V and several brain regions, the expression levels of the Il-1β, Il-10 and Dap12 mRNA were significantly increased in the lateral habenula (LHb) of colitis mice. Moreover, the expression of Trem2, Dap12 and Iba1 were increased in LHb of DSS-V mice. HLJD treatment could alleviate depressive-like behaviors, reduce the density of TUNEL + cells in Hb and the expression of Il-6, Il-10 and Dap12 mRNA in LHb of DSS-V mice. The overexpression of Trem2, Dap12 and Iba1 in LHb of DSS-V mice were reversed after HLJD treatment. Conclusion: These results reveal LHb is an important brain region during the process of colitis-induced depression. HLJD treatment could alleviates depressive-like behaviors in colitis mice via inhibiting the Trem2/Dap12 pathway in microglia of LHb, which would contribute to the precise treatment. It provides a potential mechanistic explanation for the effectiveness of HLJD treatment in colitis patients with depression.

Abstract	Ethnopharmacological relevance: Qing-Xin-Jie-Yu Granule (QXJYG) is an integrated traditional Chinese medicine formula used to treat atherosclerotic (AS) cardiovascular diseases. A randomized controlled trial found that QXJYG reduced cardiovascular events and experiments also verified that QXJYG attenuated AS by remodeling the intestinal flora. Aim of the study: To determine whether QXJYG would attenuate AS and plaque vulnerability by regulating ferroptosis in high-fat diet-induced atherosclerotic ApoE Methods: AS models in ApoE Results: QXJYG attenuated AS progression and plaque vulnerability. Characteristic morphological changes of ferroptosis in the QXJYG-treated animals were rare. Total iron was significantly lower in the QXJYG group than in the model group (P < 0.05); QXJYG suppressed the lipid peroxidation (LPO) levels (malondialdehyde), enhanced the antioxidant capacity (superoxide dismutase and glutathione), and reduced inflammatory factors (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α) associated with ferroptosis. Expression of GPX4/xCT in aorta tissues was remarkably increased in the QXJYG group. QXJYG inhibited ferroptosis in J744A.1 macrophages disturbed using RSL3. The Fe Conclusion: QXJYG inhibits ferroptosis in vulnerable AS plaques partially via the GPX4/xCT signaling pathway.

Abstract	Background: The clinical application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is limited by their drug resistance, necessitating the development of ICI sensitizers to improve cancer immunotherapy outcomes. Huang Lian Jie Du Decoction (HLJD, Oren-gedoku-to in Japanese, Hwangryunhaedok-tang in Korean), a famous traditional Chinese medicinal prescription, has exhibited potential in the field of cancer treatment. This study aims to investigate the impact of HLJD on the efficacy of ICIs in melanoma and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Methods: The potential synergistic effects of HLJD and ICIs were investigated on the tumor-bearing mice model of B16F10 melanoma, and the tumor infiltration of immune cells was tested by flow cytometry. The differential gene expression in tumors between HLJD and ICIs group and ICIs alone group were analyzed by RNA-seq. The effects of HLJD on oxidative stress, TLR7/8, and type I interferons (IFN-Is) signaling were further validated by immunofluorescence, PCR array, and immunochemistry in tumor tissue. Results: HLJD enhanced the anti-tumor effect of ICIs, significantly inhibited tumor growth, and prolonged the survival duration in melanoma. HLJD increased the tumor infiltration of anti-tumor immune cells, especially DCs, CD4 Conclusions: HLJD enhanced the therapeutic benefits of ICIs in melanoma, through increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting the TLR7/8 pathway, and activating IFN-Is signaling, which in turn activated DCs and T cells.

Abstract	Crohn's disease (CD) is an incurable inflammatory bowel disease due to unclear etiology and pathogenesis. Accumulating evidences have shown the harmful role of ferroptosis in CD onset and development. Additionally, fibrinogen-like protein 1 (FGL1) has been verified to be a potential therapeutic target of CD. Xue-Jie-San (XJS) is an effective prescription for treating CD. However, its therapeutic mechanism has not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to determine whether XJS alleviating CD via regulating ferroptosis and FGL1 expression. A colitis rat model was induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid and treated with XJS. The disease activity indices of the colitis rats were scored. Histopathological damage was assessed using HE staining. ELISA was performed to examine inflammatory cytokines. Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to observe ultrastructure changes in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Iron load was evaluated by examining iron concentrations, the expressions of FPN, FTH and FTL. Lipid peroxidation was investigated through detecting the levels of ROS, 4-HNE, MDA and PTGS2. Furthermore, the SLC7A11/GSH/GPX4 antioxidant system and FGL1/NF-κB/STAT3 signaling pathway were examined. The results showed that colitis was dramatically ameliorated in the XJS-treated rats as evidenced by relief of clinical symptoms and histopathological damages, downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-17 and TNF-α, and upregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. Furthermore, XJS administration led to ferroptosis inhibition in IECs by reducing iron overload and lipid peroxidation. Mechanistically, XJS enhanced the SLC7A11/GSH/GPX4 antioxidant system negatively regulated by the FGL1/NF-κB/STAT3 positive feedback loop. In conclusion, XJS might restrain ferroptosis in IECs to ameliorate experimental colitis by inhibition of FGL1/NF-κB/STAT3 positive feedback loop.

Abstract	Ethnopharmacological relevance: Xue-Jie-San (XJS), as a traditional Chinese herb prescription, has satisfactory effects on improving clinical symptoms and facilitating the healing of intestinal ulcers in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). This motivates the application of XJS on CD-associated complications. Aim of the study: Intestinal fibrosis is a debilitating complication of CD. Currently, there is no effective medication available for preventing or reversing CD-related intestinal fibrosis. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and underlying mechanisms of XJS in the treatment of colitis-associated intestinal fibrosis. Materials and methods: A rat model of CD-related intestinal fibrosis was induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid administration and treated with XJS. The pathological changes of intestinal fibrosis were evaluated using Masson staining. Collagen deposition and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were verified by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot analysis. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) was assessed with immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical staining as well as Western blot analysis. Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to observe autophagosomes. The levels of autophagy-related proteins were detected via immunofluorescence staining and Western blot. Finally, the mTOR/ULK1 signaling pathway regulated by Notch1 or FGL1 was analyzed by Western blot. Results: The results found that XJS ameliorated intestinal fibrosis through reducing the deposition of collagens such as Collagen 1 and Collagen 3. XJS inhibited the EMT process by increasing E-cadherin levels and decreasing the expressions of N-cadherin, Vimentin and Snail, which played a crucial role in collagen secretion and intestinal fibrosis. In addition, XJS also repressed the EndoMT process as reflected by the upregulation of CD31 and VE-cadherin levels and the downregulation of FSP1 and α-SMA expressions. Autophagy was activated following XJS treatment via suppression of the mTOR/ULK1 signaling pathway. Furthermore, XJS acted as an inhibitor of Notch1 and FGL1 signals, both of which regulated the mTOR signaling. Conclusions: Our findings validated that XJS prevented the early development of CD-related intestinal fibrosis by blocking the Notch1 and FGL1 signaling pathways to activate autophagy and thereby inhibit EMT and EndoMT.
