is needed to (1) define the relationships between fatigue and both psychological and social factors, (2) better describe the prognostic implications of fatigue, and (3) develop more therapeutic approaches to alleviate fatigue with the goal of improving overall quality of life.There is a growing shift towards meat reducing diets, especially in Western nations, in the last decade. Whilst research has examined the potential motivations in adopting meat reducing diets, there are a limited number of studies which directly compare diet-related motivations across dietary groups, especially comparing meat reducing diet groups to omnivores. As such, it is unclear whether these dietary groups have distinctly different motivations for adopting their diets. This study aimed to examine the motivations that underlie people's dietary choices, and to compare these across three dietary groups; vegan, vegetarian, omnivore. A sample of 701 participants participated in the study (Mage = 30.09, SDage = 10.91). Participants were asked to self-describe the diet they follow and provide a written response as to why they choose to follow this diet. A content analysis indicated that the participants' motivations were similar across the three dietary groups. Similar reasons included health and environment, with the health reason common across all three groups. For vegan and vegetarians the most common was animal welfare. However, taste and enjoyment for diet was most common for omnivores. CQ31 in vitro The overlap in responses across the dietary groups suggests that dietary motivations are similar across these three groups. Therefore, rather than simply employing motivations to encourage reduced meat diets, it may be better to develop more personalised interventions to achieve this.
Fengshi Gutong (FSGT) capsule, a traditional Chinese medicine formula, has effects including warming meridians and dispersing cold, and relieving pain by dredging collaterals. FSGT is generally used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in clinic in China.

This study aims to investigate the alleviation provided by FSGT capsule on RA in vivo and the engaged mechanism.

The collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model was used to evaluate the alleviation of FSGT capsule on RA in vivo. Network pharmacology was used to find the potential involved molecular targets. Western-blot, Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were conducted. Wound healing assay was performed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

FSGT capsule (300, 900mg/kg) alleviated RA in CIA mice with no obvious side effects. The results from network pharmacology showed that the top 6 molecular targets involved in the FSGT-provided alleviation on RA were interleukin 6 (ILR) and kaempferol (KAE) were found to inhibit both inflammation and angiogenesis in vitro.

FSGT capsule ameliorates RA in CIA mice by reducing inflammation, abrogating angiogenesis and relieving pain. Some compounds in FSGT, including BHA, GA, PSE, ISL, QUER and KAE, reduced both inflammation and angiogenesis in vitro, which suggests that those compounds may contribute to the FSGT capsule-provided alleviation on RA.

A Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula (VYAC) consists of three herbs including Viola yedoensis Makino, herb (Violaceae, Viola), Sophora flavescens Aiton, root (Fabaceae, Sophora) and Dictamnus dasycarpus Turcz, root and rhizome (Rutaceae, Dictamnus), has been traditionally prescribed to treat various skin diseases in clinic.

This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of VYAC on the 2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNCB) induced atopic dermatitis (AD)-like mice and to explore the underlying mechanisms.

VYAC was extracted with 70% aqueous ethanol and lyophilized powder was used. AD-like mice were challenged by DNCB, VYAC (150 and 300mg/kg) were oral administration daily from day 7 to day 28. At the end of experiment, the clinical scores were recorded, serum and skin in the dorsal were isolated to evaluate the therapeutic effects of VYAC. RBL-2H3 cells were stimulated with C48/80 for degranulation and plasmids expressing constitutively active form of Syk (Silence or overexpression) were transfected into RBL-2H3 cells to explore the underlying mechanisms in vitro.

VYAC significantly ameliorated the cardinal symptoms in the DNCB-induced AD-like mice by repairing the skin barrier function, inhibiting mast cells infiltration, restraining the serum IgE and histamine release and decreasing TNF-α, IL-4 as well as Syk mRNA level in dorsal skin and alleviating inflammation. Besides, VYAC significantly blocked RBL-2H3 cells degranulation, reduced β-hexosaminidase and histamine release, and suppressed NF-κB pathway. What's more, the degranulation of RBL-2H3 was reduced after Syk silence and increased after Syk overexpression.

Our findings clearly suggested that VYAC treat AD through inhibiting the inflammatory mediator productions and blocking mast cell degranulation via suppressing Syk mediated NF-κB pathway.

Diabetic cognitive dysfunction (DCD) is mainly one of the complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with complex and obscure pathogenesis. Extensive evidence has demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for DCD management.

This review attempted to systematically summarize the possible pathogenesis of DCD and the current Chinese medicine on the treatment of DCD.

We acquired information of TCM on DCD treatment from PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct and CNKI databases. We then dissected the potential mechanisms of currently reported TCMs and their active ingredients for the treatment of DCD by discussing the deficiencies and giving further recommendations.

Most TCMs and their active ingredients could improve DCD through alleviating insulin resistance, microvascular dysfunction, abnormal gut microbiota composition, inflammation, and the damages of the blood-brain barrier, cerebrovascular and neurons under hyperglycemia conditions.

TCM is effective in the treatment of DCD with few adverse reactions. A large number of in vivo and in vitro, and clinical trials are still needed to further reveal the potential quality markers of TCM on DCD treatment.

Ginkgo biloba L. is a traditional Chinese medicine for hyper lipaemia. Ginkgo flavonols and terpene lactones are responsible for the lipid-lowering effect in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the pharmacokinetics of ginkgo flavonols and terpene lactones in NAFLD was not clarified.

To investigate the effects of Ginkgo biloba L. leaves extracts (EGB) and NAFLD on hepatocyte organic anion transporting polypeptide (Oatp)1b2, and to assess the pharmacokinetics of EGB active ingredients in NAFLD rats.

Male rats were fed with a high-fat diet to induce NAFLD models. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of EGB active ingredients were studied in NAFLD rats after two or four weeks of treatment with 3.6, 10.8, and 32.4mg/kg EGB. The effects of NAFLD and EGB were investigated on the systemic exposure of pitavastatin, a probe substrate of Oatp1b2. The inhibitory effects of ginkgo flavonols and terpene lactones on OATP1B1-mediated uptake of
H-ES were tested in hOATP1B1-HEK293cells.

The plasma expoptake transporter Oatp1b2 individually or in combination. The pharmacokinetic herb-disease-drug interaction found in this research will help inform the clinical administration of EGB or Oatp1b2 substrates.
Leaves extracts from Cymbopogon citratus (DC) Stapf. are widely used in traditional medicine exhibiting several in vivo biological activities, including antidiabetic. Several flavonoids, including aglycones and glycosides, were reported in this plant and previous studies suggested that flavonoids may interact with targets related to diabetes.

Evaluated the hypoglycemic activity of C. citratus flavonoids through α-glucosidase inhibition and assess the structure-activity relationship using molecular docking studies.

An infusion of C. citratus leaves and its flavonoid-rich fraction were prepared. Five flavonoids from this fraction were isolated and structurally characterized by UV spectral analysis with shift reagents, HPLC-PDA-ESI/MS
and
H NMR. The antidiabetic potential of C. citratus infusion, its flavonoid-rich fraction, glycosylated flavonoids and aglycones was evaluated trough the in vitro inhibition of yeast α-glucosidase. Posteriorly, molecular docking of the tested flavonoids was performed to in the treatment of diabetes.
Our results corroborate the potential of C. citratus as a medicinal plant for the treatment of diabetes and revealed that its flavonoid glycosides has hypoglycemic effect and can be explored as drug candidates to act as α-glucosidase inhibitors in the treatment of diabetes.
Pain often causes a series of abnormal changes in physiology and psychology, which can lead to disease and even death. Drug therapy is the most basic and commonly used method for pain relief and management. Interestingly, at present, hundreds of traditional Chinese medicines have been reported to be used for pain relief, most of which are monomer preparations, which have been developed into new painkillers. Corydalis yanhusuo is a representative of one of these medicines and is available for pain relief.

This study aims to determine the analgesic effect and the potential targets of the monomers derived from Corydalis yanhusuo, and to explore any possible associated cardiac risk factors.

In this study, four monomers derived from Corydalis yanhusuo (tetrahydropalmatine, corydaline, protopine, dehydrocorydaline) were tested in vivo, using the formalin-induced pain model to determine their analgesic properties. Their potential targets were also determined using whole cell patch clamp recordings and myocardiSCs) might be the main targets associated with Corydalis yanhusuo. This study, therefore, provides valuable information for future studies and use of traditional Chines medicines for the alleviation of pain.The pathogenesis of Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) is a synergistic effect of many factors. Up to now, the exact mechanism remains unclear. The dopamine pathway in the brain is one of the paths involved in the means of cognitive function. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between changes in dopamine transporters in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) of the midbrain and postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly rats. In this study, a mental dysfunction model in elderly rats was established after splenectomy under general anesthesia. Eighty male SD rats, aged 18-20 months, with a body mass of 300-500 g. Randomly divided into eight groups Normal group (Normal, N) and Sham group (sham, S), Model 3 day group(PND, P3), Model 7 day group(PND, P7), Virus 3 days AAV·DAT·RNAi (AAV3), Virus 7 days AAV·DAT·RNAi (AAV7), Virus control for three days AAV·NC(NC3), Virus control for seven days AAV·NC(NC7). The results show that knockdown of dopamine transporter in the VTA region can significantly improve the cognitive dysfunction of elderly rats after surgery.
