Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a significant risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease and a leading cause of death worldwide. The occurrence of atherosclerosis is closely related to factors such as endothelial injury, lipid deposition, immunity, and inflammation. Conventional statins, currently used in atherosclerosis treatment, have numerous adverse side effects that limit their clinical utility, prompting the urgent need to identify safer and more effective therapeutic alternatives. Growing evidence indicates the significant potential of Chinese herbs in atherosclerosis treatment. Herbal monomer components, such as natural flavonoid compounds extracted from herbs like Coptis chinensis and Panax notoginseng, have been utilized for their lipid-lowering and inflammation-inhibiting effects in atherosclerosis treatment. These herbs can be used as single components in treating diseases and with other Chinese medicines to form herbal combinations. This approach targets the disease mechanism in multiple ways, enhancing the therapeutic effects. Thus, this review examines the roles of Chinese herbal medicine monomers and Chinese herbal compounds in inhibiting atherosclerosis, including regulating lipids, improving endothelial function, reducing oxidative stress, regulating inflammation and the immune response, and apoptosis. By highlighting these roles, our study offers new perspectives on atherosclerosis treatment with Chinese herbs and is anticipated to contribute to advancements in related research fields.

Abstract
Indigo naturalis (IN) is a dried powder derived from plants such as Baphicacanthus cusia (Neeks) Bremek., Polygonum tinctorium Ait. and Isatis indigotica Fork. It has a historical application as a dye in ancient India, Egypt, Africa and China. Over time, it has been introduced to China and Japan for treatment of various ailments including hemoptysis, epistaxis, chest discomfort, and aphtha. Clinical and pre-clinical studies have widely demonstrated its promising effects on autoimmune diseases like psoriasis and Ulcerative colitis (UC). Despite the documented efficacy of IN in UC patients, concerns have been raised on the development of adverse effects with long term consumption, prompting a closer examination of its safety and tolerability in these contexts. This review aims to comprehensively assess the efficacy of IN in both clinical and pre-clinical settings, with a detailed exploration of the mechanisms of action involved. Additionally, it summarizes the observed potential toxicity of IN in animal and human settings was summarized. This review will deepen our understanding on the beneficial and detrimental effects of IN in UC, providing valuable insights for its future application in patients with this condition.

Abstract
Isatis indigotica Fortune is a plant species containing lignan compounds of significant economic value. Its root plays a crucial role in treating viruses and exhibits antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and other biological activities. Now, I. indigotica has been included in Isatis tinctoria Linnaeus. In this study, the roots of diploid I. indigotica, tetraploid I. indigotica, and Isatis tinctoria Linnaeus were analyzed using metabolome and transcriptome analysis. The metabolomic analysis detected 48 lignan metabolites, including Lirioresinol A, Vladinol A, Syringaresinol, Arctigenin, Acanthoside B, and Sesamin as characteristic compounds, without significant variations among the remaining metabolites. The transcriptomic analysis identified 41 differentially expressed phenylpropanoid synthase genes, which were further analyzed for variations in lignan transcriptome profiles across different samples. RT-qPCR analysis also revealed differential genes expression related to lignan biosynthesis pathway among the three sample groups. The analysis of transcription factors showed that the AP2-EREBP family (Iin24319), MYB family (Iin24843), and WRKY family (Iin08158) displayed expression patterns similar to Iin14549. Phylogenetic analyses also indicate that Iin14549 may play a role in lignan synthesis. These transcription factor families exhibited high expression in tetraploid I. indigotica, moderate expression in diploid I. indigotica, and low expression in I. tinctoria. The findings of this study can serve as a reference for improving the quality of I. indigotica and developing germplasms with high lignan content. Additionally, these results lay a foundation for the functional characterization of UGTs in lignan biosynthesis pathway.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28093960. [PMID: 37175371 PMCID: PMC10180365 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28093960] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Isatidis folium or Isatis tinctoria L. is a flowering plant of the Brassicaceae family, commonly known as woad, with an ancient and well-documented history as an indigo dye and medicinal plant. This study aimed to evaluate the anti-atopic dermatitis (AD) effects of Isatidis folium water extract (WIF) using a 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced AD-like mouse model and to investigate the underlying mechanism using tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ)-activated HaCaT cells. Oral administration of WIF reduced spleen weight, decreased serum IgE and TNF-α levels, reduced epidermal and dermal thickness, and inhibited eosinophil and mast cell recruitment to the dermis compared to DNCB-induced control groups. Furthermore, oral WIF administration suppressed extracellular signal-regulated kinase and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase protein expression levels, p65 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, and mRNA expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-13 in skin lesion tissues. In HaCaT cells, WIF suppressed the production of regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC), macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC), MCP-1, and MIP-3a, which are inflammatory cytokines and chemokines related to AD, and inhibited the mRNA expression of RANTES, TARC, and MDC in TNF-α/IFN-γ-stimulated HaCaT cells. Overall, the results revealed that WIF ameliorated AD-like skin inflammation by suppressing proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine production via nuclear factor-κB pathway inhibition, suggesting WIF as a potential candidate for AD treatment.

Abstract
Nine tetrahydrofuran lignans, including three undescribed spiro-lignans, were isolated from Isatis indigotica Fortune (Brassicaceae). Extensive spectroscopic analyses achieved the structure elucidation of these tetrahydrofuran lignans, and quantum chemical calculation combined with the MAEΔΔδ parameter. Notably, isatispironeols A-B have a unique spiro[dienone-tetrahydrofuran] molecular core. These spiro[dienone-tetrahydrofuran] lignans showed comparable neuroprotective effects as the positive control in the H2O2-induced SH-SY5Y cells model. In addition, (-)-(7R,8S,1'R,7'R,8'R)-isatispironeol A possessed more significant AChE inhibitory activity, further interact sites were also predicted by the in silico assay.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 295:115428. [PMID: 35659915 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Jiu-Wei-Yong-An (JWYA) formula is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription used to treat atopic dermatitis (AD) in the clinic. JWYA is considered to have anti-inflammatory and antipruritic properties. However, the mechanism of JWYA remains unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate the effect of JWYA on an experimental mouse AD model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice were sensitized with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) and intragastrically administered with JWYA for 14 days. The therapeutic effect was assessed using a grade four dermatitis score, skin moisture, thickness measurements, and a mouse behavior tests. H&E and toluidine blue staining were used to observe epidermal inflammatory thickening and mast cells in mouse skin lesions. Serum IgE levels and skin TNF-α and IL-4 levels were determined using ELISAs. The TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-13, IL-31, IL-33, and IFN-γ mRNA expression levels in skin lesions were detected using qPCR. Network pharmacology analysis based on serum active components was performed to elucidate the mechanism, and the results were verified by Western blotting. Finally, we tested the binding affinity between the active ingredients of JWYA and JAK1 via molecular docking. RESULTS JWYA improved the skin lesions of AD mice, relieved itching and reduced skin thickening. Additionally, JWYA decreased the serum IgE level and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-13, IL-31, IL-33, and IFN-γ in skin. Moreover, JWYA inhibited the activation of JAK1/STAT3 and MAPK (p38, ERK, and JNK) signaling. Molecular docking showed that kaempferol, luteolin, and forsythin have high affinity for JAK1. CONCLUSIONS JWYA alleviates AD-like skin lesions and inhibited inflammation and skin itch. The effect of JWYA is attributed to blocking the JAK1/STAT3 and MAPK signaling pathways. We suggest that JWYA may be an alternative therapy for the treatment of AD.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) includes over ten thousand herbal medicines, some of which were introduced from outside countries and territories. The Silk Road enabled the exchange of merchandise such as teas, silks, carpets, and medicines between the East and West of the Eurasia continent. During this time, the ‘Compendium of Materia Medica’ (CMM) was composed by a traditional medicine practitioner, Shizhen Li (1,518–1,593) of the Ming Dynasty. This epoch-making masterpiece collected knowledge of traditional medical materials and treatments in China from the 16th century and before in utmost detail, including the origin where a material was obtained. Of 1892 medical materials from the CMM, 46 came from Persia (now Iran). In this study, the basic information of these 46 materials, including the time of introduction, the medicinal value in TCM theory, together with the current status of these medicines in China and Iran, are summarized. It is found that 20 herbs and four stones out of the 46 materials are registered as medicinal materials in the latest China Pharmacopoeia. Now most of these herbs and stones are distributed in China or replacements are available but saffron, ferula, myrrh, and olibanum are still highly dependent on imports. This study may contribute to the further development, exchange, and internationalization of traditional medicine of various backgrounds in the world, given the barriers of transportation and language are largely eased in nowadays.
