    Abstract Stemona is a medicinal plant that has been used in China for thousands of years to treat respiratory diseases such as cough and tuberculosis. The tuberostemonine is the component of the Stemona tuberosa Lour., Stemona sessilifolia (Miq.) Miq. or Stemona japonica (Blume) Miq. (The plant name has been checked with http://www.theplantlist.org), of which multiple biological activities has been verified. However, whether it may alleviate pulmonary fibrosis via regulating ferroptosis mechanism has not been confirmed. The aim of this study is to observe whether tuberostemonine alleviates pulmonary fibrosis by enhancing the function of the SLC7A11/glutamate antiporter to restrain the ferroptosis. We validated the effects of tuberostemonine and ferroptosis on TGF-β1-induced proliferation of human lung fibroblast and bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. In vitro, the ferroptosis effect of TGF-β1 on human lung fibroblast were examined and the activity of ɑ-SMA, collagen, hydroxyproline and ferrous ions in cells were also examined. In vivo, ferroptosis impacts respiratory function. Inflammatory manifestations, hydroxyproline, collagen activity and ferrous ions in the lung or blood were subject to evaluation. Tuberostemonine significantly improved respiratory function in mice with bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis, decreased cellular and lung hydroxyproline content, reduced inflammation and collagen deposition in cells and lung, and promoted an increase in the SLC7A11 and GPX4 proteins. Tuberostemonine inhibits the ferroptosis phenomenon, up-regulates SLC7A11, GPX4 and GSH, and down-regulates the accumulation of iron and ROS. Tuberostemonine significantly inhibited ferroptosis and improved pulmonary fibrosis both in vivo and vitro.

    Abstract Background: Prior reports have revealed that basal Cystatin-C (CysC) is positively associated with all-cause death in patients with heart failure (HF). Yet, this positive association is not necessarily generalizable to Chinese HF patients due to methodological limitations and lack of data from Chinese patients.
    Materials and methods: We performed secondary data mining based on a retrospective cohort dataset published on the internet. This dataset contains 2008 patients with HF who were admitted to a tertiary hospital in Sichuan Province, China from 2016 to 2019. The exposure variable was baseline CysC and the outcome variable was all-cause death on day 28, day 90, and month 6. Covariates were baseline measurements, including demographic data, drug use, comorbidity score, organ function status (heart, kidney), and severity of heart failure.
    Results: Among 1966 selected participants, the mortality rates at 28 days, 90 days and 6 months were 1.83% (36/1966), 2.09% (41/1966) and 2.85% (56/1966) respectively. After adjustment for confounders, the non-linear associations between CysC and all-cause deaths were observed. We calculated the inflection points were about 2.5 mg/L of CysC. On the right of inflection point, each increase of 1 mg/L in CysC was associated with an increase in the risk of 28-day mortality (Relative risk [RR], 2.07; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09 to 3.93;
    Conclusion: Our findings suggest that values about 2.5 mg/l of cystatin could be a danger threshold for the short-term risk of death in heart failure. Exceeding this threshold, for every 1 mg/L increase in CysC, the risk of all-cause mortality increased by more than one time.
