    Abstract Background: Condyloma acuminatum (CA) is a sexually transmitted disease characterized by the anomalous proliferation of keratinocytes caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Fu Fang Gang Liu liquid (FFGL) is an effective externally administered prescription used to treat CA; however, its molecular mechanism remains unclear. This study aimed to identify and experimentally validate the major active ingredients and prospective targets of FFGL.
    Methods: Network pharmacology, transcriptomics, and enrichment analysis were used to identify the active ingredients and prospective targets of FFGL, which were confirmed through subsequent experimental validation using mass spectrometry, molecular docking, western blotting, and in vitro assays.
    Results: The network pharmacology analysis revealed that FFGL contains a total of 78 active compounds, which led to the screening of 610 compound-related targets. Among them, 59 overlapped with CA targets and were considered to be targets with potential therapeutic effects. The protein-protein interaction network analysis revealed that protein kinase B (Akt) serine/threonine kinase 1 was a potential therapeutic target. To further confirm this result, we performed ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq) assays on HPV 18
    Conclusion: FFGL reduced HPV 18

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Fu Fang Gang Liu (FFGL) is an effective formula for treating wart proliferation caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and has the potential to treat HPV-related cancers. However, scientific evidence of its anti-tumor activity against cervical cancer, the most common cancer caused by HPV, is lacking.
    Aim of the study: To clarify the anti-tumor effect of an FFGL aqueous extract on human cervical cancer and its possible mechanism of cell cycle arrest in HeLa cells.
    Materials and methods: The anti-proliferative effect of FFGL on cervical cancer cells was assessed using the cell counting kit-8 assay. The proportion of apoptotic cells, cell cycle distribution, and cell division rate were determined using flow cytometry. Quantitative proteomics was used to identify differentially expressed proteins after FFGL treatment, and bioinformatics analysis was used to identify key nodal proteins affected by FFGL. Immunofluorescence and western blot analyses were used to explore changes in the expression of related proteins in the cell cycle and DNA damage pathways to elucidate the potential mechanism of action of FFGL against HeLa cell proliferation.
    Results: FFGL inhibited cervical cancer cell proliferation and caused cell cycle arrest. According to quantitative proteomics, CyclinB1 may play an important role in the anti-proliferative effect of FFGL on HeLa cells. Additional experiments showed that FFGL aqueous extract caused ATM-mediated DNA damage, further phosphorylated CHK2, led to the inactivation of Cdc25C, inhibited the activity of the CDK1/CyclinB1 complex, and resulted in cell cycle arrest.
    Conclusions: FFGL can inhibit cervical cancer cell proliferation. Furthermore, it can increase CDK1 phosphorylation, block the cell cycle by causing DNA damage, and inhibit HeLa cell proliferation.

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: The stems of Entada phaseoloides (L.) Merr commonly named "Guo-gang-long", is a traditional Chinese folk medicine that has been used clinically in China for the treatment of arthritis. Our previous study described that triterpene saponins isolated from "Guo-gang-long" could inhibit the inflammatory response. However, the potential mechanism of "Guo-gang-long" on treatment of arthritis, and whether the triterpene saponins responsible for its anti-arthritic effect are unclear.
    Aim: To investigate the function and mechanisms of the triterpene saponins from E. phaseoloides (ES) in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats.
    Materials and methods: The chemical components of ES were analyzed by HPLC. Anti-arthritic activity of ES was investigated in CIA rats, which was established by immunization with bovine type II collagen. Three doses of ES (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg) were administrated using oral gavage to CIA rats daily for 3 weeks. The anti-arthritic activity of ES was evaluated by clinical arthritis scoring, paw swelling and mechanical sensitivity, as well as histological changes in CIA rats. The impacts of ES on the regulation of the ubiquintin-editing enzyme A20 and MAPK signaling pathway, and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in CIA rats were examined by Western blot, quantitative real-time PCR, ELISA, and immunohistochemical staining, respectively.
    Results: ES treatment relieved the paw swelling, hyperalgesia and joint destruction, and prevented the progression of arthritis in CIA rats. Meanwhile, ES suppressed the excessive mRNA levels and protein expression of TNF-α and IL-17 in synovial tissues and hind paw joints, and reduced the production of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-17 in serum. Furthermore, ES up-regulated A20 and suppressed the phosphorylation of p38 and ERK1/2 in hind paw joints, as well as inhibiting the activation of spinal p38 in CIA rats.
    Conclusion: ES could relieve rheumatic symptoms and prevent the development of rheumatoid arthritis. The effects of ES may be mediated by reducing proinflammatory cytokine levels, up-regulating A20 expression, reducing p38 and ERK1/2 activation in periphery, and inhibiting of phospho-p38 in spinal cord.

    Abstract This study was conducted to research the effect of overfeeding on antioxidant capacity of serum, liver, gut, and breast muscle in Gang Goose and Tianfu Meat Goose. Fifty-five Gang Geese and 55 Tianfu Meat Geese were separated respectively into a control group and an overfed group randomly (15 birds in control group, 40 birds in overfed group); all birds were slaughtered after overfeeding for 3 wk. After overfeeding, the concentration of triglyceride, insulin, and glucose increased in serum (P < 0.05), the liver weight and fat content in liver increased, and the moisture content in liver decreased (P < 0.05) in both breeds. The liver weight, ratio of liver to body, and fat content in liver of Tianfu Meat Goose were higher than those of Gang Goose (P < 0.05). Overfeeding had no significant effect on the meat quality of breast muscle (P > 0.05). The activities of total glutathione peroxidase (TGP), superoxide dismutase, and catalase (CAT) in serum of the control group were higher than those in the overfed group (P < 0.05); the activities of total glutathione peroxidase, CAT, and the total antioxidant capacity in liver of the control group were higher than those in the overfed group (P < 0.05); there was no significant difference between the overfed group and the control group in the malonyldialdehyde (MAD) content of liver and serum (P > 0.05). The malonyldialdehyde content of intestine in the overfed group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the oxidative stress occurred in the serum, liver, and intestine after overfeeding.
