    Abstract: JinQi Jiangtang tablet (JQJTT) is a Chinese patent medicine that has been shown to be beneficial for patients with diabetes both preclinically and clinically; however, the molecular mechanism underlying the effects of JQJTT remains unclear. In this study, surface plasmon resonance fishing was employed to identify JQJTT constituent molecules that can specifically bind to fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), leading to the retrieval of palmatine (PAL), a key active ingredient of JQJTT. In vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated that PAL can significantly stimulate FGFR1 phosphorylation and upregulate glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT-1) expression, thereby facilitating glucose uptake in insulin resistance (IR) HepG2 cells as well as alleviating hyperglycemia in diabetic mice. Our results revealed that PAL functions as an FGFR1 activator and that the hypoglycemic effect of JQJTT is partially dependent on the PAL-induced activation of the FGFR1 pathway. In addition, this study contributed to the understanding the pharmacodynamic basis and mechanism of action of JQJTT and provided a novel concept for future research on PAL.

    Abstract: The label-free methods of proteomic combined with metabolomics were applied to explore the mechanisms of Cryptotanshinone (CPT) intervention in rats with acne. The model group consisted of rats given oleic acid (MC), then treated with CPT, while control groups did not receive treatment. The skin samples were significantly different between control, model and CPT-treated groups in hierarchical clustering dendrogram. Obvious separations of the skin metabolic profiles from the three groups were found through PCA scoring. In total, 231 and 189 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in MC and CPT groups, respectively. By the KEGG analysis, five protein and metabolite pathways were found to be significantly altered. These played important roles in response to oleic acid-induced acne and drug treatment. CPT could negatively regulate glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and histidine metabolisms to decrease keratinocyte differentiation and improve excessive keratinization and cellular barrier function. CPT could down-regulate the IL-17 signaling pathway and regulate the acne-driven immune response of sebum cells. The biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism and linoleic acid pathways could significantly alter sebum production and control sebaceous gland secretion after CPT treatment. The gap junction was up-regulated after CPT treatment and the skin barrier turned back to normal. Krt 14, Krt 16 and Krt 17 were significantly down-regulated, decreasing keratinization, while inflammatory cell infiltration was improved by down-regulation of Msn, up-regulation of linoleic acid and estrogen pathways after CPT treatment. These results propose action mechanisms for the use of CPT in acne, as a safe and potential new drug.

    Abstract: After initial treatment, maintenance therapy is now commonly used in mCRC patients, which can help patients live longer, have lower side effects, and higher quality of life. The maintenance treatment may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or combined with chemotherapy and targeted therapy. But the evidence of cetuximab maintenance is still scant. Methods: We collected real-world data of wild-type RAS unresectable mCRC patients who were treated with cetuximab-based chemotherapy as the first-line therapy between January 2013 and December 2018 at the Zhejiang Cancer Hospital (Hangzhou, China). Results: A total of 177 patients were ultimately included in the study, and 107 patients had progression information in medical records; all patients had survival data. The median OS was 40.9 ms, ORR was 14.7%, and DCR was 73.5%. The subgroup analysis showed that the mOS was better in maintenance patients than in non-maintenance patients (47.1 vs. 28.6 ms, p = 0.001), patients with primary tumor resection had better mOS than who did not (47.1 vs. 35.4 ms, p = 0.038). In those 107 patients who had progression information, the median PFS was 9 ms, the median OS was 42.6 ms, ORR was 18.7%, and DCR was 84.1%. The subgroup analysis showed that the mPFS and mOS were 11.6 and 47.1 ms, respectively, in the maintenance group, which were significantly better than 6.1 ms and 28.7 ms in the non-maintenance group ( p = 0.025 and 0.017, respectively). The mPFS and mOS in patients with efficacy evaluation of CR + PR + SD were 10.3 and 47.1 ms, respectively, which is significantly better than 2.8 and 13.5 ms in the PD patients ( p = 0.012 and & lt;0.001, respectively). The mOS was best in only lung metastases patients (60.9 ms), then only liver metastases patients (47.1 ms), and then in both liver and lung metastases (42.6 ms); the mOS in patients with other organs metastases was the worst (22.4 ms), p = 0.022. The mOS in male individuals is better than that in female individuals, 60.99 vs. 29.1 ms, respectively, p = 0.042. The primary tumor site and primary tumor resection also affect the OS, primary tumor resection better than did not (not reach the end vs. 35.7 ms, p = 0.048), left side better than right side (47.1 vs. 16.6 ms, p & lt; 0.001), which is consistent with the literature report. There was no statistical difference in other subgroups. Conclusion: For patients with all RAS wild-type and initially unresectable mCRC who experienced standard first-line cetuximab-based treatment and maintenance treatment that contained cetuximab can significantly improve the mPFS and mOS, and the observed toxicity was mostly mild too. So, we consider that cetuximab can be an effective and safety maintenance drug in mCRC patients.

    Abstract: Aim: Kidney impairment is observed in patients with COVID-19. The effect of anti-COVID-19 agent remdesivir on kidneys is currently unknown. We aimed to determine the effect of remdesivir on renal fibrosis and its downstream mechanisms. Methods: Remdesivir and its active nucleoside metabolite GS-441524 were used to treat TGF-β stimulated renal fibroblasts (NRK-49F) and human renal epithelial (HK2) cells. Vehicle or remdesivir were given by intraperitoneal injection or renal injection through the left ureter in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) mice. Serum and kidneys were harvested. The concentrations of remdesivir and GS-441524 were measured using LC-MS/MS. Renal and liver function were assessed. Renal fibrosis was evaluated by Masson’s trichrome staining and Western blotting. Results: Remdesivir and GS-441524 inhibited the expression of fibrotic markers (fibronectin and aSMA) in NRK-49F and HK2 cells. Intraperitoneal injection or renal injection of remdesivir attenuated renal fibrosis in UUO kidneys. Renal and liver function were unchanged in remdesivir treated UUO mice. Two remdesivir metabolites were detected after injection. Phosphorylation of Smad3 that was enhanced in cell and animal models for renal fibrosis was attenuated by remdesivir. In addition, the expression of Smad7, an anti-fibrotic factor, was increased after remdesivir treatment in vitro and in vivo . Moreover, knockdown of Smad7 blocked the antifibrotic effect of GS and RDV on renal cells. Conclusion: Remdesivir inhibits renal fibrosis in obstructed kidneys.

    Abstract: Ischemia/reperfusion caused by cardiac arrest (CA) disturbs endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis and redox balance in neurons. AA147, originally developed as a pharmacologic activator of the activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), can protect multiple tissues from ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) by decreasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and restoring ER function. However, it is unclear whether pharmacologic treatment of AA147 could ameliorate post-CA cerebral IRI and whether it is associated with proteostasis regulation and anti-oxidative stress mechanism. In the present study, mice were subjected to 9 min-CA surgery followed by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). AA147 or vehicle was administered 1 day before the operation and 15 min after the return of spontaneous circulation. We found that AA147 restored neurological function and reduced dead neurons in mice suffering from CA. Moreover, AA147 inhibited CA/CPR-caused neuronal apoptosis and ER stress, indicated by reduced TUNEL-positive neurons, surged expression of Bcl-2/Bax, and down expression of cleaved caspase-3, caspase-12, C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP). The expression of ATF6 and its regulated gene glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) increased significantly after the administration of AA147, suggesting the activation of the ATF6 pathway. In addition, AA147 also alleviated the upsurge of the ROS generation and MDA levels as well as increased SOD activity, accompanied by enhancement of the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its modulated heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expressions. Cotreatment of AA147 with inhibitors of the ATF6 or Nrf2 significantly suppressed AA147-dependent reductions in ROS scavenging and neuronal death after CA/CPR. The results suggested that AA147 could confer neuroprotection against post-CA cerebral IRI through inhibition of oxidative stress along with ER stress-associated apoptosis, which is attributed to the coregulation of both ATF6 and Nrf2 signaling pathways activity. Our findings support the potential for AA147 as a therapeutic approach to improve post-CA brain injury.

    Abstract: Oxidative stress and inflammation are crucial factors contributing to the occurrence and development of vascular dementia (VD). In a previous study, we demonstrated that brozopine (BZP) is an anti-ischemic drug. In this study, a model of VD in rats with modified permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (2-VO) was established in vivo , a model of cellular excitotoxicity/oxidative stress was established via L-glutamate-induced PC12 cell injury, a model of neuroinflammation was established in LPS-induced BV2 cells in vitro , and the ameliorative effect of BZP on cognitive impairment was assessed. BZP treatment improved memory deficit in VD rats through inhibiting Ca 2+ overload and the levels of oxidative stress, ferroptosis, and inflammatory markers (IL-1β, IL-6, and COX-2) in different brain regions. Additionally, we found that the levels of inflammatory markers in the plasma were also reduced in the VD rats. BZP was further found to have antioxidative stress, antiferroptosis (ferroptosis markers: GPX4, P53, and ACSL4), and antineuroinflammatory effects in PC12 and BV2 cells. Its mechanisms of action were found to be related to the activation of the Nrf2/TLR4/NF-κB pathway; the protective effect of BZP was partially inhibited after using Nrf2-specific inhibitors. Thus, BZP has therapeutic properties for the potential mitigation of cognitive impairment.

    Abstract: Qianggu Concentrate (QGHJ), a traditional Chinese medicine, is extensively used to treat Type 2 Diabetic Osteoporosis (T2DOP). Despite its widespread use, research on its therapeutic mechanisms within T2DOP is notably scarce. Objective To explore QGHJ’s osteoprotection in T2DOP rats and BMSCs, focusing on the antioxidant activation of SIRT1/NRF2/HO-1 and NRF2 nuclear migration. Methods QGHJ constituent analysis was performed using UPLC-HRMS. Safety, bone-health efficacy, and glucose metabolic effects in T2DOP rats were evaluated via general condition assessments, biomarker profiling, micro-CT, biomechanics, staining methods, and ELISA, supplemented by RT-qPCR and Western blot. BMSCs’ responses to QGHJ under oxidative stress, including viability, apoptosis, and osteogenic differentiation, were determined using CCK-8, flow cytometry, ALP/ARS staining, and molecular techniques. The modulation of the SIRT1/NRF2/HO-1 pathway by QGHJ was explored through oxidative stress biomarkers, immunofluorescence, and Western blot assays. Results UPLC-HRMS identified flavonoids, monoterpenes, and isoflavones as QGHJ’s key compounds. In vivo , QGHJ proved safe and effective for T2DOP rats, enhancing bone mineral density, microenvironment, and biomechanical properties without impairing vital organs. It modulated bone markers PINP, TRACP 5b, RUNX2 and PPARγ, favoring bone anabolism and reduced catabolism, thus optimizing bone integrity. QGHJ also regulated glycemia and mitigated insulin resistance. In vitro , it preserved BMSCs’ viability amidst oxidative stress, curbed apoptosis, and fostered osteogenesis with regulated RUNX2/PPARγ expression. Mechanistic insights revealed QGHJ activated the SIRT1/NRF2/HO-1 pathway, augmented NRF2 nuclear translocation, and enhanced the antioxidative response, promoting bone health under stress. Conclusion In T2DOP rat and BMSCs oxidative stress models, QGHJ’s bone protection is anchored in its antioxidative mechanisms via the SIRT1/NRF2/HO-1 pathway activation and NRF2 nuclear translocation.

    Abstract: Epigenetic modifications, specifically acetylation of histone plays a decisive role in gene regulation and transcription of normal cellular mechanisms and pathological conditions. The bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) proteins (BRD2, BRD3, BRD4, and BRDT), being epigenetic readers, ligate to acetylated regions of histone and synchronize gene transcription. BET proteins are crucial for normal cellular processing as they control cell cycle progression, neurogenesis, differentiation, and maturation of erythroids and spermatogenesis, etc. Research-based evidence indicated that BET proteins (mainly BRD4) are associated with numeral pathological ailments, including cancer, inflammation, infections, renal diseases, and cardiac diseases. To counter the BET protein-related pathological conditions, there are some BET inhibitors developed and also under development. BET proteins are a topic of most research nowadays. This review, provides an ephemeral but comprehensive knowledge about BET proteins’ basic structure, biochemistry, physiological roles, and pathological conditions in which the role of BETs have been proven. This review also highlights the current and future approaches to pledge BET protein-related pathologies.
