RESUMO
Traditional Chinese medicine has the characteristics of multiple components， pathways， and targets in the treatment of fracture healing， and has good therapeutic advantages and potential for fractures with complex pathological mechanisms. Based on this， the author summarized the mechanism of promoting fracture healing by the monomer components and compound formulas of traditional Chinese medicine and found that visfatin A， puerarin， and others can activate the mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway； Xugudan， Guben zenggu formula and others can activate bone morphogenetic protein （BMP） signaling pathway； baicalin， Achyranthes bidentata polysaccharides and others can activate Wnt/β -catenin signaling pathway； apigenin， notoginsenoside and others can activate receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）/receptor activator of NF-κB ligand/osteoprotegerin （RANK/RANKL/OPG） signaling pathway； Compound huoxue jiegu capsule， Jiangu granule and others can inhibit phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B （PI3K/AKT） signaling pathway； icariin can activate Notch signaling pathway； Taohong siwu decoction， crocin and others can activate Hippo signaling pathway； jujuboside A and osthole can inhibit NF-κB signaling pathway， and thus promote fracture healing.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effects of Arisaema Cum Bile on Parkinson’s disease （PD） model mice and its potential mechanism. METHODS Sixty male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal group， model group， Arisaema Cum Bile low-dose group [0.39 g/（kg·d）]， Arisaema Cum Bile high-dose group [1.56 g/（kg·d）] and positive control drug Levodopa tablet group [80 mg/（kg·d）]， with 12 mice in each group. Except that normal group was given constant volume of normal saline， other groups were given 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1，2，3，6-tetrahydropyridine [MPTP，35 mg/（kg·d）] intraperitoneally for 5 consecutive days to induce subacute PD model； after modeling， they were given relevant medicine continuously for 7 d； rod climbing test and line suspension test were performed 1 d before modeling， on the 5th day of modeling and after the last medication. The number of tyrosine hydroxylase （TH）-positive neurons in the substantia nigra of mice were measured by immunofluorescence； the levels of interleukin 1β （IL-1β） and tumor necrosis factor α（ TNF-α） in serum and the levels of IL- E-mail：qhwang668@sina.com 1β， TNF-α， cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） in the substantia nigra of mice were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit α （PKA C-α）， glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） and ferritin heavy chain polypeptide 1 （FTH1） proteins in the substantia nigra of mice was measured by Western blot. RESULTS After last medicine， compared with the normal group， mice in the model group had significantly longer pole-climbing time （P＜0.01）， significantly lower line suspension scores （P＜0.01）， significantly fewer TH-positive neurons in the substantia nigra （P＜0.01）， significantly higher serum concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α and nigrostriatal concentrations of IL-1β， TNF-α， COX-2 and iNOS （P＜0.01）， while lower protein expression levels of GPX4， PKA C-α and FTH1 in the substantia nigra （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the above indexes of mice were significantly returned in Arisaema Cum Bile high-dose group （P＜0.05 or P＜ 0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Arisaema Cum Bile can improve motor impairment and reduce apoptosis of nigrostriatal TH neurons in MPTP-induced PD mice， and has neuroprotective effects on model mice； this may be related to its inhibition of neuroinflammation and the inhibition of ferroptosis by up-regulating PKA signaling pathway.
RESUMO
Bilirubin has good anti-inflammatory， antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects， but its poor water solubility and low bioavailability greatly limit its clinical application. Researchers have developed bilirubin into various nanoparticles， which effectively eliminate the limitation of low solubility of bilirubin with the advantage of dosage form， so that they can maximize its pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory， anti-oxidation and immune regulation. Bilirubin nanoparticles have great application potential in a variety of gastrointestinal diseases， liver and kidney diseases， skin diseases， autoimmune diseases， islet transplantation and targeted therapy of tumors （both as a direct anti-tumor drug and as a drug delivery system）. The study of bilirubin nanoparticles will promote the clinical application of bilirubin and the development of related new drugs.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE：To identify Panax notoginseng and its processed products . METHODS ：The fingerprint was established by HPLC. Using ginsenoside Rb 1 as reference ，HPLC fingerprints of 15 batches of P. notoginseng and its processed products were drawn and the similarity evaluation was conducted by using the Similarity Evaluation System for TCM Chromatographic Fingerprints（2012 edition）. The common peaks were confirmed by comparing with substance control. SPSS 21.0 and SIMCA 14.1 software were used to perform cluster analysis ，principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis；taking the variable importance projection （VIP）value greater than 1 as the standard ，the differential marker components causing the quality difference between P. notoginseng and its processed products were screened. IR fingerprints of P. notoginseng and its processed products were established by OMNIC 8.2.0 software，and the spectral similarity was evaluated ；double index sequence analysis was used to analyze absorption peaks of IR fingerprints of 15 batches of P. notoginseng and its processed products. RESULTS ：There were 16 common peaks in the fingerprints of 15 batches of P. notoginseng ， and the similarities were 0.911-1.000；there were 25 common peaks in the fingerprints of processed products ，and the similaritieswere 0.862-1.000. They had 12 identical common peaks ，and wang668@sina.com three of them were ident ified as sanchinoside R 1，ginsenoside Rg1 and ginsenoside Rb 1. Results of cluster analysi s showed that when the distance was 10，15 batches of P. notoginseng could be clustered into two categories ，SW1-SW5 into one category ，SH1-SH5 and SQ 1-SQ5 into one category ，ZW1-ZW5，ZH1-ZH5 and ZQ1-ZQ5 of 15 batches of processed products could be clustered into one category. When the distance was 5，15 batches of P. notoginseng could be clustered into three categories ，SW1-SW5 into one category ，SH2-SH5 and SQ 2 into one category ，SQ1， SQ3-SQ5 and SH 1 into one category. Fifteen batches of processed products could be clustered into two categories ，ZW1-ZW5 into one category ，ZH1-ZH5 and ZQ 1-ZQ5 into one category. The results of principal component analysis showed that the cumulative variance contribution rate of the first two principal components was 80.104％ . The results of orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis showed that the VIP values of the five peaks were greater than 1，which were peak H ，peak G ，peak J，peak F （ginsenoside Rg 1）and peak I. The similarity of IR fingerprints of 15 batches of P. notoginseng and its processed products were 0.889 7-1.000 0 and 0.972 8-1.000 0；the common peak rates were 80％-100％，and the variation peak rates were 0-17.65％ and 0-18.75％，respectively. By comparing the wave numbers of absorption peaks ，it was found that there were differences between P. notoginseng at 3 440 and 1 450 cm－1 and processed products at 1 530 and 575 cm－1. CONCLUSIONS ：Established HPLC fingerprint and IR fingerprint have good similarity ，and could effectively distinguish P. notoginseng and its processed products. P. notoginseng and its processed products from different habitats have high common peak rate and low variation rate ，and their chemical components are different ；peak H ，peak G ，peak J ，ginsenoside Rg 1 and peak I are differential marker components causing the quality difference between P. notoginseng and processed products.
