me, we showed that JMG had no protective effect on Escherichia coli-induced sepsis, as well as no antimicrobial activity. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that a water-soluble extract of JMG inhibited LPS-induced inflammation via attenuating the NF-κB signaling pathway, which provides an important rationale for the treatment of inflammation-related diseases. V.ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Wound healing is an important area of research in contemporary medicine. Unani is a traditional medicine system based on hundreds of years of observations and experiences. Wounds are described under the headings qarha (arabic) and jarāhat (persian) in classical Unani texts. Several drugs of herbal, mineral and animal origin are described in Unani texts as having wound healing properties. Many of these drugs have been screened on various scientific parameters but the potential of most drugs remains unexplored. METHODOLOGY The study was aimed at summarizing the topical wound healing drugs mentioned in classical Unani books. The topical wound healing drugs were first identified in classical texts. Then 20 drugs were selected for detailed review on the basis of clinical relevance and wide availability. OBSERVATIONS AND RESULTS Seventy drugs were identified in Unani texts after removal of duplicacy. Most of the drugs (85.71%) were of herbal origin, while 10% were of mineral origin and the rest 4.28% were of animal origin. Most of the herbal drugs belonged to the Fabaceae (10%) and Rosaceae (8.33%) families. Biologically active compounds such as phenols, sterols, hydrocarbons, anthocyanidins, flavonoids and tannins have been identified in almost all drugs which support classical literature. CONCLUSION Unani system of medicine has a rich legacy of effective wound healing drugs, which is reinforced by modern researches. Most drugs exert their action on multiple phases of wound healing. In addition, most drugs have no reported adverse effects in laboratory and clinical studies. Hence, Unani medicine may offer the much-needed affordable and effective wound care in a wide range of clinical settings. ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE This study addresses the rapid discovery of the active compounds (the original constituents and/or metabolites) of a traditional Chinese drug, Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma (SGR). AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of this study was to develop a new method to find out the active compounds of traditional drugs in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS A method was established to discover and identify the potential active compounds in drug-containing plasma from rats that were orally administered SGR extract, utilizing the relationship between the individual differences in blood drug concentrations in the rats and the resulting differences in pharmacological effect, and the method was denoted as the RID-PE method. For this method, we used high-performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector combined with electrospray ionization ion trap time-of-flight multistage mass spectrometry (LC-MSn) to identify the compounds (the original constituents and metabolites) and to determine the peak areas of tify the active constituents and metabolites of SGR systematically and in vivo. Furthermore, these findings enhance our understanding of the metabolism and effective forms of SGR. ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Qiang-Gan formula is a traditional Chinese medicine formula, which has been widely used in treating liver diseases in China. AIM OF THE STUDY To investigate the effect of Qiang-Gan formula extract (QGE) on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and its underlying possible mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS The high-performance liquid chromatography finger-print method was used for the quality control of chemical components in QGE. Methionine- and choline-deficient diet-induced NASH mice were administrated with QGE via gavage for four weeks. Phenotypic parameters including liver histological change as well as serum levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) were detected. Bile acid profile in the serum, liver and fecal samples was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer technique, and fecal microbiota was detected by 16S rDNA sequencing. Expression of liver G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (TGR5), farnesiod X receptor (FXR), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) as well as molecules in nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway was assayed by immunohistochemistry staining, RT-qPCR, or Western blot, respectively. RESULTS QGE alleviated liver inflammation, reduced serum ALT and AST levels and liver TNF-α and IL-1β expression in NASH mice. It also decreased liver and serum BA concentration and increased fecal lithocholicacid (LCA) production in this animal model. QGE altered the structure of gut microbiota, predominantly increased LCA-producing bacteria Bacteroides and Clostridium in NASH mice. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/vu661013.html In addition, the expression of liver TGR5 but not FXR was increased, and the molecules in NF-κB pathway were decreased in QGE-treated NASH mice. CONCLUSIONS QGE was effective in preventing NASH, possibly by regulation of gut microbiota-mediated LCA production, promotion of TGR5 expression and suppression of the NF-κB activation. ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. & Endl.) H. Robinson, commonly known as yacon, is a medicinal plant belonging to the Asteraceae family used in traditional folk medicine. Its roots and leaves have been used by people suffering from diabetes or from various digestive or renal disorders. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed at evaluating the in vitro potential genotoxic effects of the aqueous extract of yacon in order to determine its safety and at characterizing its phytochemical composition. MATERIALS AND METHODS The aqueous extract of S. sonchifolius was prepared in a similar way to that commonly used in popular medicine as tea bags. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-MS/MS) were used to identify the main compounds. The MTT test was performed to determine the range of doses and the Cytochalasine B-blocked micronucleus (Cytome assay) was used to assess geneotoxicity. RESULTS The chemical analysis of the aqueous extract revealed the presence of the sesquiterpene lactones (STLs) enhydrin and the dimer enhydrofolin, as the main compounds together with phenolic compounds.
