Therapeutic effects of Buzhong Yiqi decoction in patients with spleen and stomach qi deficiency after routine surgery and chemotherapy for colorectal cancer

BACKGROUND According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),the spleen and stomach are the basis of acquired nature and the source of qi and blood biochemistry.After surgery and chemotherapy,patients with colorectal cancer often develop spleen and stomach qi deficiency syndrome,leading to decreased immune function.Buzhong Yiqi decoction,a classic TCM prescription,has the effect of tonifying middle-jiao and invigorating qi,boosting Yang,and suppressing immune-related inflammation.Moreover,it is widely used in the treatment of spleen and stomach qi deficiency syndrome.AIM To investigate the effect of Buzhong Yiqi decoction on spleen and stomach qi deficiency in patients with colorectal cancer.METHODS One hundred patients with colorectal cancer who underwent preoperative chemotherapy and laparoscopy at The First TCM Hospital of Changde from January 2022 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided equally into control and observation groups.Both groups underwent conventional rehabilitation surgery,and the observation group was supplemented with Buzhong Yiqi decoction.SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analyses.Theχ2 test was used for univariate analysis;independent sample t-tests were used in all cases.RESULTS No significant differences were observed preoperatively in the general characteristics of the two groups.Fourteen days post-surgery,the abdominal distension,emaciation,loose stool,loss of appetite,and vomiting scores were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).Immune function and interleukin(IL)-10 levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group,whereas IL-6,tumor necrosis factor-α,and C-reactive protein levels,tumor biological indexes,and adverse reactions in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).One month after surgery,the patients’quality of life in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the patients in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Buzhong Yiqi decoction can regulate inflammatory responses and metabolic processes by enhancing immune function,thereby promoting overall immune nutrition and restoring the body’s balance.

Effect of Buzhong Yiqi Decoction (补中益气汤) on Murine Liver Damage Induced by Food Allergy

Objective: To investigate the effect of Buzhong Yiqi decoction (补中益气汤, BZYQD) on liver damage induced by food allergy in mice. Methods: Nc/Jic strain mice with high levels of serum IgE were sensitized by ovalbumin (OVA), and then divided into two groups and respectively treated with BZYQD (treated group) or normal saline (model group). Samples of serum, liver tissues and small intestine were collected two weeks later, and another group of non-sensitized mice was set as the normal group. The levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured with spectrophotometry. The liver tissue and small intestine were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) for pathologic analysis. The liver samples were also subjected to analysis of CD4-T helper cell and cytokine (interleukin-4, IL-4, interleukin-6, IL-6) expression with immunohistochemical (avidin-biotin complex, ABC) method. Results: Serum ALT levels decreased and obvious pathologic improvements were seen in the mice treated with BZYQD. And compared with the model mice, the number of positive cells of IL-4, IL-6 and CD4 cell decreased significantly in those treated with BZYQD. Conclusion: BZYQD can effectively decrease the production of cytokines associated with allergic reaction in the liver of mice thus effective in treating liver damage caused by food allergy.

Analysis of mechanism of Buzhong Yiqi Decoction in treating senile functional constipation via network pharmacology

Objective:To explore the molecular mechanism of buzhong yiqi decoction in the treatment of senile functional constipation based on network pharmacology.Methods:Chemical compositions and selected targets related to the eight traditional Chinese medicine herbs were searched through the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP).Through GeneCards database and OMIM database,disease targets of senile functional constipation were searched.R language was used to screen the common targets between drugs and disease,and then the interaction network diagram of the targets was constructed by String.Cytoscape3.7.0 was applied to construct the traditional Chinese medicines-chemical compositions-disease targets network.GO enrichment analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis of the targets were based on DAVID.Results:Five main chemical compositions including quercetin,kaempferol,nobiletin,naringenin and formononetin were screened,and five key targets including PTGS2,ESR1,AR,NOS2 and PPARG were identified.622 GO functional entries and 125 pathways were yielded by gene enrichment analysis.Conclusion:Buzhong yiqi decoction may play the role of anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation through multi-component,multi-target and multi-channel,so as to improve senile functional constipation.

Effects of Jiawei Buzhong Yiqi Decoction on the Endometrial Receptivity of Rats with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

[Objectives]The study aims to discuss the effects of Jiawei Buzhong Yiqi Decoction on the endometrial receptivity of rats with polycystic ovarian syndrome(PCOS).[Methods]Adult female SD rats were selected and randomly divided into the model group and control group.In the model group,the PCOS model was established by using the method of Poretsky L.Rats in the control group were given physiological saline intervention at the same time.The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the PCOS group and traditional Chinese medicine group.Among them,rats in the Chinese medicine group were given Jiawei Buzhong Yiqi Decoction by gavage;rats in the model group and the control group were given normal saline for 14 d.All rats were killed by anesthesia after the last administration,and serum and uterine specimens were collected.Serum sex hormones(including T,E_(2),and P),glucose and insulin levels were detected;the equivalent diameter and area of endometrial gland and gland cavity,and the endometrial thickness of rats were measured;the expression of endometrial leukemia inhibitory factor(LIF),integrinαvβ3 protein and mRNA was detected by using Elisa and RT-PCR methods.[Results]The serum T,glucose,and insulin levels of rats in the PCOS group were significantly higher than those of the control group and the traditional Chinese medicine group,and there was no significant difference in the above indicators between the control group and the traditional Chinese medicine group;there was no significant difference in the E_(2) and P levels between the three groups.The equivalent diameter and area of endometrial gland and gland cavity,and the endometrial thickness of rats in the PCOS group were lower than those of the control group and the traditional Chinese medicine group;there was no significant difference in the above indicators between the traditional Chinese medicine group and the control group.The expression of LIF,integrinαvβ3 protein and mRNA in the endometrium of rats in various groups was basically the same.The expression of LIF and integrinαvβ3 in the endometrium of rats in the PCOS group was significantly lower than that of the control group and the traditional Chinese medicine group;there was no significant difference in the above indicators between the control group and the traditional Chinese medicine group.[Conclusions]The endometrial receptivity of PCOS rats was decreased;Jiawei Buzhong Yiqi Decoction can improve the endometrial receptivity of PCOS rats by increasing the expression of LIF and integrinαvβ3 in the endometrium.

目的运用分子对接技术预测加味补中益气汤治疗哮喘的作用机制。方法依托中药系统药理学数据库平台(Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform,TCMSP),筛选出加味补中益气汤的主要化学成分和相应靶点,利用Cytoscape软件构建“药物-疾病-靶点”的网络关系,将药物主要成分及疾病的交集靶点导入STRING平台构建蛋白相互作用(Protein-protein interaction networks,PPI)网络,并利用AutoDock软件将加味补中益气汤的主要成分与哮喘的关键靶点进行分子对接。结果共筛选出加味补中益气汤有效成分338种,支气管哮喘相关靶点1744个,其中交集靶点120个。PPI网络分析加味补中益气汤主要作用于蛋白激酶Cα(Protein kinase C alpha,PRKCA)、丝裂原活化蛋白激酶14(Mitogen-activated protein kinase 14,MAPK14)、V-Rel网状内皮增生病毒癌基因同源物A(V-Rel reticuloendotheliosis viral oncogene homolog A,RELA)、V-Jun肉瘤病毒17癌基因同源物(V-Jun sarcoma virus 17 oncogene homolog,JUN)和B细胞中κ轻型多肽基因增强子的核因子15(Nuclear factor-k-gene binding15,NFKB15)个核心靶点。分子对接结果表明筛选得到的主要活性成分与靶点有较强的结合。结论加味补中益气汤治疗支气管哮喘或许具有积极作用,其作用机制可能与调节PRKCA、MAPK14、RELA、JUN和NFKB1等信号通路有关。
