    Abstract Hong-Hua-Xiao-Yao tablet (HHXYT) is attracting attention increasingly because of its use in treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia (MGH) and menopausal syndrome. However, its pharmacokinetics remains unclear. This study developed a sensitive and rapid method for simultaneous determination of 10 compounds of HHXYT in rat plasma by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and to compare the pharmacokinetics of these compounds in MGH rats and sham operated rats. The linearity, accuracy, precision, stability and matrix effect were within acceptable ranges. This established method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetics study of 10 compounds in sham operated and MGH rats. According to the results, the bioavailability of glycyrrhetinic acid was highest in MGH rats and sham operated rats. The mean residence times of glycyrrhetinic acid and glycyrrhetinic acid 3-O-glucuronide were higher than those of the other compounds while the mean residence time and half-life of liquiritin, isoliquiritin and paeoniflorin were lower. Some pharmacokinetic parameters of ormononetin, liquiritigenin, isoliquiritigenin, liquiritin, isoliquiritin, paeoniflorin, protocatechuic acid and senkyunolide I were significantly different between MGH rats and sham operated rats. This study elucidated the dynamic changes of multiple components in rats after oral administration of HHXYT systematically and comprehensively, which provided guidance for clinical application.

    Abstract Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction has been widely used to treat stroke and sequelae of stroke. We have previously shown that the active fractions of Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction attenuate cerebral ischemic injury. However, the global protein profile and signaling conduction pathways regulated by Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction are still unclear. This study established a two-vessel occlusion rat model by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion. Rats were intragastrically administered 50 or 150 mg/kg Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction for 4 consecutive weeks. Learning and memory abilities were measured with Morris water maze. Motor ability was detected with prehensile test. Coordination ability was examined using the inclined screen test. Neuronal plasticity was observed by immunofluorescent staining. Differentially expressed proteins of rat hippocampus were analyzed by label-free quantitative proteomics. Real time-polymerase chain reaction and western blot assay were used to identify the changes in proteins. Results showed that Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction dramatically alleviated learning and memory deficits, and motor and coordination dysfunction, and increased the expression of microtubule-associated protein 2. Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction extract remarkably decreased 13 upregulated proteins and increased 39 downregulated proteins. The regulated proteins were mainly involved in oxidation reduction process, intracellular signaling cascade process, and protein catabolic process. The signaling pathways were mainly involved in ubiquitin mediated proteolysis and the phosphatidylinositol signaling system. Furthermore, there was an interaction among Rab2a, Ptpn1, Ppm1e, Cdk18, Gorasp2, Eps15, Capza2, Syngap1 and Mt-nd1. Protein analyses confirmed the changes in expression of MT-ND1. The current findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction extract's effects on chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.

    Abstract Depression can trigger an inflammatory response that affects the immune system, leading to the development of other diseases related to inflammation. Xiao-Yao-San (XYS) is a commonly used formula in clinical practice for treating depression. However, it remains unclear whether XYS has a modulating effect on the inflammatory response associated with depression. The objective of this study was to examine the role and mechanism of XYS in regulating the anti-inflammatory response in depression. A chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) mouse model was established to evaluate the antidepressant inflammatory effects of XYS. Metabolomic assays and network pharmacology were utilized to analyze the pathways and targets associated with XYS in its antidepressant inflammatory effects. In addition, molecular docking, immunohistochemistry, Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR), and Western Blot were performed to verify the expression of relevant core targets. The results showed that XYS significantly improved depressive behavior and attenuated the inflammatory response in CUMS mice. Metabolomic analysis revealed the reversible modulation of 21 differential metabolites by XYS in treating depression-related inflammation. Through the combination of liquid chromatography and network pharmacology, we identified seven active ingredients and seven key genes. Furthermore, integrating the predictions from network pharmacology and the findings from metabolomic analysis, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA) and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ (PPARG) were identified as the core targets. Molecular docking and related molecular experiments confirmed these results. The present study employed metabolomics and network pharmacology analyses to provide evidence that XYS has the ability to alleviate the inflammatory response in depression through the modulation of multiple metabolic pathways and targets.

    Abstract Background: This study aimed to observe the clinical effects of Xiao-xian decoction combined with acupoint application therapy (AAT) for treating pediatric adenoid hypertrophy (AH).
    Methods: We randomly divided 93 AH children into 3 groups: AAT alone; Xiao-xian decoction + AAT; control: Montelukast oral therapy. All participants were treated for a month. We used the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score to evaluate the clinical efficacy and the obstructive sleep apnea-18 scale to evaluate the quality of life.
    Results: The major symptoms (nasal congestion, open mouth breathing, snoring, and tongue image) and secondary symptoms of patients treated with Xiao-xian decoction + AAT significantly improved compared to before treatment. The pairwise comparison between groups showed that snoring, tongue, secondary symptoms, and total effective rate of the combined treatment group were better than the control and AAT alone. Additionally, the open-mouth breathing, quality of life, and recurrence rate did not differ after treatment.
    Conclusion: Oral Xiao-xian decoction combined with AAT significantly improved the symptoms and signs of nasal congestion, open-mouth breathing, snoring, tongue, and quality of life of AH children and may be used as a long-term treatment for AH.

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: The combined prescription of two classical decoctions (Ma-Xing-Shi-Gan decoction with Xiao-Chai-Hu decoction), named as San-Yang-He-Zhi (SYHZ) decoction, has been widely used for the treatment of influenza virus (IFV) infections for decades.
    Aim of the study: This study aimed to evaluate the anti-influenza effect of SYHZ decoction and explore the underlying mechanism.
    Materials and methods: The ingredients of SYHZ decoction were analyzed by mass spectrometry. An animal model of IFV infection was established by challenging C57BL/6J mice with PR8 virus. Three groups of mice were infected with lethal or non-lethal doses of IFV, then followed by oral administration of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), or SYHZ, or oseltamir; blank control mice (without IFV infection) were treated with PBS. Survival rate, Lung index, colon length, body weight loss and IFV viral load were measured 7 days post infection; histology and electron-microscopy examinations of lung tissue were performed; cytokine and chemokine levels in lung and serum were measured; and the intestinal metagenome, the cecum metabolome, and the lung transcriptome were analyzed.
    Results: SYHZ treatment significantly improved survival rate compared with PBS (40% vs 0%); improved lung index, colon length, and body weight loss; and alleviated lung histological damage and viral load. SYHZ-treated mice had significantly lower levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, CCL2, CXCL10 in lung and serum, and increased levels of multiple bioactive components in cecum. Pro-inflammatory cytokines, Toll- and NOD-like receptors, pro-apoptosis molecules, and lung-injury-related proteins were downregulated in SYHZ mice, whereas surfactant protein and mucin were upregulated. The NOD-like receptor pathway, Toll-like receptor pathway, and NF-κB pathway were downregulated by SYHZ treatment.
    Conclusions: SYHZ decoction alleviated IFV infection in a mouse model. Multiple bioactive ingredients of SYHZ may inhibit replication of IFV and suppress excessive immune response.

    Abstract Background: Patients with lupus nephritis (LN) typically undergo long-term treatment with glucocorticoids (GCs) and immunosuppressants. There is a growing demand for optimal therapy with better remission results and fewer side effects. Sustained traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) might be quite valuable for multitarget therapy, reducing the total dosage of GCs and minimizing the side effects of immunosuppressants.
    Aim: To evaluate whether Dan Bai Xiao Formula (DBXF) can reduce the exposure to GCs and cyclophosphamide (CYC) and to assess the efficacy and safety of DBXF for the resolution of proteinuria and hematuria in children with LN.
    Methods: A 24-wk pilot study was conducted at Beijing Children's Hospital. Children with active LN were divided into either a TCM group or a control group. Children in the TCM group received DBXF combined with GCs and CYC, and the ones in the control group received GCs and CYC every 4 wk for 24 wk. The primary endpoints of this trial were urinary protein excretion of < 150 mg/d and normal serum albumin concentration and renal function.
    Results: The trial included 78 children, of whom 38 received GCs and CYC treatment (control group) and the remaining 40 received DBXF combined with GCs and CYC treatment (TCM group). At week 24, the TCM group showed a better rate of complete remission (42.5%); however, there was no significant difference compared with the control group (31.5%,
    Conclusion: The findings suggest that DBXF treatment is effective and safe as a supplementary therapy for LN and is superior to routine GC and CYC therapy. DBXF containing combination treatment possibly results in a faster resolution of proteinuria and hematuria, smoother GC reduction, fewer methylprednisolone pulses, and fewer adverse events.

    Abstract Introduction: Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine plays an important role in preventing and treatment of stroke. Xiao-Xu-Ming decoction (XXM) is an effective traditional Chinese prescription for the treatment of stroke and its sequelae. Previous studies have reported the extracts of XXM has a good therapeutic effect on experimental animal stroke. However, the mechanism is unclear. Our present study focused on metabolic remodeling in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion to investigate the mechanism of XXM on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Methods: The cerebral I/R rat model was established by 90 min middle cerebral artery occlusion following reperfusion. XXM at doses of 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg was administered for the continuous 7 day after cerebral I/R. Behavioral testing, cerebral infarction detected by TTC staining, Nissl staining, NeuN immunohistochemical staining, and MAP2 immunofluorescence staining were conducted to evaluate the effect of XXM treatment on cerebral I/R of rats. TUNEL staining was used to detect DNA damage. The expression of related proteins was detected by qPCR and western blotting. Results: 7 day XXM treatment improved neurological and behavioral deficits, regulated the biogenesis and dynamic process of mitochondria, promoted the recovery of mitochondrial function, and improved the energy metabolism disorder after cerebral I/R. Furthermore, XXM also had an improving effect on mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis after cerebral I/R. Conclusion: we found that XXM regulated metabolic remodeling in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion and improve neurological deficits.

    Abstract Background: Psoriasis is a persistent inflammatory dermatological disorder. Tanshinone IIA (tan-IIA) is a biologically active compound in the self-made Xiao-Yin decoction (SMXYD) and exhibits diverse biological properties, such as anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory effects. The objective of this investigation was to assess the potential of tan-IIA as a therapeutic agent against psoriasis.
    Methods: Network pharmacology was employed to ascertain the active constituents and potential pathways associated with SMXYD and psoriasis. We conducted CCK-8, qRT-PCR, and western blotting to assess the proliferation of HaCaT keratinocytes and the expression of IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways. Additionally, we used H&E staining, western blotting, and ELISA to evaluate the therapeutic effects and signaling pathways of tan-IIA in psoriasis-like mice induced by imiquimod (IMQ).
    Results: Network pharmacology analysis identified eight hub compounds. The Th17/IL-17 signaling was found to be a potential therapeutic pathway of SMXYD against psoriasis, with JUN (AP-1) as the core molecule. Next, PTGS2 was selected as the target of tan-IIA against psoriasis using network pharmacology analysis. Molecular docking showed a high affinity between PTGS2 and tan-IIA. Tan-IIA treatment attenuated M-5-induced hyperproliferation and inflammation in HaCaT keratinocytes. Additionally, Tan-IIA downregulated the PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathway in HaCaT keratinocytes. In the IMQ-induced psoriasis-like mouse, tan-IIA significantly reduced the severity of skin lesions and downregulated the PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathway. Moreover, the combination of methotrexate (MTX) and tan-IIA further inhibited the IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways.
    Conclusion: The administration of tan-IIA has shown a positive effect on psoriasis by inhibiting the IL-17/IL-23 and PTGS2/NF-κB/AP-1 pathways. The findings suggest that it has promising qualities that make it a potential candidate for the development of future anti-psoriatic agents.
