The present study was designed to observe the cerebroprotective effect of HL.JDD on an Alzheimer's disease rodent model, presenilin-1/amyloid protein precursor double transgenic mice. HLJDD reduced serum interleukin-6 and interleukin-113 levels, decreased [3-amyloid precursor protein gene and senile plaque expression, resisted oxidation, and reduced free radical-induced injury, thereby improving the learning and memory of these mice. Moreover, HLJDD at 433 mg/kg per day exhibited better effects compared with that at 865 or 216 mg/kg per day, and donepezil hydrochloride at 30 mg/kg per day. Thus, these results suggest that HLJDD may have protective effects against Alzheimer's disease.展开更多

文摘Huanglian Jiedu decoction (HLJDD) has been shown to improve cerebral blood flow, and reduce lipid peroxidation damage to the brain and its energy metabolism. The present study was designed to observe the cerebroprotective effect of HL.JDD on an Alzheimer's disease rodent model, presenilin-1/amyloid protein precursor double transgenic mice. HLJDD reduced serum interleukin-6 and interleukin-113 levels, decreased [3-amyloid precursor protein gene and senile plaque expression, resisted oxidation, and reduced free radical-induced injury, thereby improving the learning and memory of these mice. Moreover, HLJDD at 433 mg/kg per day exhibited better effects compared with that at 865 or 216 mg/kg per day, and donepezil hydrochloride at 30 mg/kg per day. Thus, these results suggest that HLJDD may have protective effects against Alzheimer's disease.

文摘Objective:To explore possible mechanisms of Huanglian Wendan decoction drug-containing serum to improve insulin resistance.Method: 3T3-L1 fibroblasts were divided into control group, model group and TCM group. 3T3-L1 fibroblasts in model group and TCM group were induced to differentiation, and the 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of insulin resistance was constructed. The control group and model group were given normal serum stimulation, while the TCM group is treated with drug-containing serum. Finally, proceed bioinformatics analysis of the acquired differential expression protein by using TMT marking, liquid chromatography-mass (LC-MS) spectrometry, GO analysis and KEGG pathway analysis.Results:4982 proteins are identified in three groups of samples in this experiment, 4238 of them contain quantitative information. 210 up-regulate and 399 down-regulate proteins exist in model group and control group;221 up-regulate and 98 down-regulate ones are identified in TCM group and control group;310 up-regulate and 142 down-regulate proteins come to light with TCM group and control group. The result shows that the differentially expressed proteins were mainly distributed in s GO terms, such as DNA replication, nucleoplasm and protein binding of TCM group and control group. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis shows that, differentially expressed up-regulate proteins were enriched in 10 pathways, for instance DNA replication, cell cycle and mismatch repair, etc. Besides, differentially expressed down-regulate proteins were enriched in 25 pathways, enriched pathways are peroxisome, fatty acid degradation and metabolism process, etc.Conclusion: It is clear that Huanglian Wendan decoction drug-containing serum could improve insulin resistance by multi-targeting, multi-pathway synergy, and overall regulation.

文摘Objective:To explore the active ingredients of Huanglian Jiedu Decoction(HLJD)for the treatment of COVID-19 and to further verify the combination mode.Methods:The TCMSP database was used to search for HLJD active ingredients and targets.COVID-19 targets were collected from GeneCards,DisGeNET and OMIM databases.Material-active-ingredients-targets(gene)network and targets protein-protein interaction network were constructed using Cytoscape 3.8.0 and the STRING database.GO functional enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of core targets were performed using R software.Cytoscape 3.8.0 was used to build“compound-targets-pathways”to predict HLJD mechanisms,and active ingredients were used as ligands to molecularly dock with SARS-CoV-23CL hydrolase,Spike glycoprotein and ACE2.The binding energy was calculated by molecular dynamics simulations and molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area method,and intermolecular interactions and the contribution of each residue to the binding free energy were analyzed.Results:Four medicinal materials,66 compounds and 219 targets were identified.It is found that the Protein-Protein Interaction core network contained 35 HLJD key targets proteins for COVID-19 treatment.705 GO functional enrichment entries(P<0.05)were produced;while KEGG pathway enrichment analysis identified 142 pathways(P<0.05)involving the Tumor Necrosis Factor signaling pathway and Interleukin-17 signaling pathway,etc.The binding energies of Kihadanin A,Palmidin A,Obacunone and Hispidone are much smaller than those of the currently reported clinical drugs with anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs.The results of the binding energy indicate that van der Waals force is the main driving force for enzyme-substrate combination,whereas the electrostatic interaction and non-polar solvents contribute less.Conclusion:The“multi-component-multi-targets-multi-pathway”synergy of HLJD,which binds to SARSCoV-23CL hydrolase,Spike glycoprotein and ACE2,can act on targets Heat Shock Protein 90 Alpha Family Class A Member 1,Adrenoceptor Beta 2,Checkpoint Kinase 1,Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma and Mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 to regulate multiple signal pathways,and it may have a therapeutic effect on COVID-19.
文摘目的探讨卒中后抑郁症患者采用黄连温胆汤治疗的临床效果及对认知功能和生活质量的影响。方法选取80例2019年5月—2022年5月医院收治的卒中后抑郁患者作为研究对象,根据随机数字表法将其分为观察组(40例)和对照组(40例)。对照组予以常规对症治疗,观察组则在此基础上联合黄连温胆汤加味内服治疗。两组患者均连续治疗8周。比较两组患者治疗后的临床疗效,治疗前后的汉密尔顿抑郁量表(Hamilton depression scale,HAMD)、汉密尔顿焦虑量表(Hamilton anxiety scale,HAMA)、匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(Pittsburgh sleep quality index,PSQI)、简易精神状态检查(mini-mental state examination,MMSE)、美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(National Institute of Health stroke scale,NIHSS)、不良反应量表(treatment emergent symptom scale,TESS)、改良Barthel指数(modified Barthel index,MBI)、生活质量评分、血清去甲肾上腺素(norepinephrine,NE)、多巴胺(dopamine,DA)、5-羟色胺(5-hydroxytryptamine,5-HT)水平。结果治疗后观察组临床总有效率高于对照组;与治疗前比较,治疗后两组HAMD、HAMA、PSQI、NIHSS、TESS评分均降低,且观察组低于对照组;两组MMSE、MBI、生活质量各维度评分、血清NE、DA、5-HT水平均逐渐升高,且组间进行比较,观察组更高,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论黄连温胆汤应用于卒中后抑郁症患者的治疗中可有效缓解患者的焦虑、抑郁症状,提升睡眠质量,明显减轻神经功能和认知功能的损伤,有效促进神经递质水平的调节,使患者生活质量和日常生活活动能力明显提升,疗效显著且安全性高。
