[Advance on clinical and pharmacological research of Bawei Chenxiang Powder and related formulae].

Bawei Chenxiang Powder(BCP), first documented in the Tibetan medical work Four Medical Classics, has been widely applied in clinical practices in Tibetan and Mongolian medicines since its development. It has the effect of clearing the heart heat, calming the mind, and inducing resuscitation. On the basis of BCP, multiple types of formulae have been developed, such as Bawei Yiheyi Chenxiang Powder, Bawei Rang Chenxiang Powder, and Bawei Pingchuan Chenxiang Powder, which are widely used for treating cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

[Chemical and pharmacological research progress on Mongolian folk medicine Syringa pinnatifolia].

Syringa pinnatifolia, belonging to the family Oleaceae, is a species endemic to China. It is predominantly distributed in the Helan Mountains region of Inner Mongolia and Ningxia of China. The peeled roots, stems, and thick branches have been used as a distinctive Mongolian medicinal material known as "Shan-chen-xiang", which has effects such as suppressing "khii", clearing heat, and relieving pain and is employed for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases and joint pain.

Changes of remote sensing vegetation phenology in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region under the background of urbanization.

Urban environments face numerous challenges, including an increase in impervious surfaces, intensification of heat island effect, and severe air pollution, which all affect urban vegetation phenology. We reconstructed the time series of MOD13Q1 enhanced vegetation index data for the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region during 2002-2021, extracted the vegetation phenology index based on the dynamic threshold method, and examined the dyna-mics of vegetation phenology under a urbanization gradient. The results showed that the start of growing season (SOS) occurred earlier in the southeastern region of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the end of growing season (EOS) was later in the central and southwestern regions, and the growing season length (GSL) was extended in the central and southeastern regions.

Development of a chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) for quantitating L1 protein in HPV vaccines.

The L1 protein serves as the principal capsid component of human papillomavirus (HPV). All globally commercialized HPV vaccines utilize virus-like particles (VLPs) formed through L1 protein self-assembly. Quantitative analysis of L1 protein concentration constitutes a critical parameter for evaluating the antigenic potency of HPV vaccines.

Description of a new subspecies of Lethe gemina Leech, 1891 from northern Guangdong of China (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae).

Based upon morphological and molecular evidences, a new subspecies of Lethe gemina Leech, 1891, namely L. gemina bicolor subsp. nov.

The complete chloroplast genome sequences of monotypic genus Pseudogalium, and comparative analyses with its relative genera.

Background: Pseudogalium is a new monotypic genus with two subspecies in China and one in Japan, which holds a distinctive phylogenetic position and ecological significance within the tribe Rubieae. Chloroplast genomes contain abundant information for resolving phylogenetic relationships. To investigate the phylogenetics of P.

(Malpighiaceae), a new species on karst hills close to Lijiang River, Guangxi, China, based on molecular and morphological data.

-Secreted Fluvirucin B6 as a Potential Bio-Fungicide for Managing Banana Wilt and Mycotoxins and Modulating the Soil Microbial Community Structure.

Banana wilt caused by f. sp. ( TR4) is the most destructive soil-borne fungal disease.

From Perspective of Hippocampal Plasticity: Function of Antidepressant Chinese Medicine Xiaoyaosan.

The hippocampus is one of the most commonly studied brain regions in the context of depression. The volume of the hippocampus is significantly reduced in patients with depression, which severely disrupts hippocampal neuroplasticity. However, antidepressant therapies that target hippocampal neuroplasticity have not been identified as yet.

Serum metabolomic profiling of patients with liver cirrhosis at different stages.

An accurate and non-invasive diagnosis of the clinical stage is critical for effectively managing liver cirrhosis. This study aimed to identify serum metabolite biomarkers and clinical features that may reliably predict high-risk cirrhosis. This cross-sectional study recruited 94 cirrhotic patients (70 for identification cohort, 24 for validation cohort) from Minhang Hospital Affiliated with Fudan University between 2018 and 2021, who were analyzed by targeted quantitative metabolomics technique.

Inhibition of PPP1R15A alleviates osteoporosis via suppressing RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis.

Osteoporosis results from overactivation of osteoclasts. There are currently few drug options for treatment of this disease. Since the successful development of allosteric inhibitors, phosphatases have become attractive therapeutic targets.

Analysis of the Performance of Recycled Insulation Concrete and Optimal Mix Ratio Design Based on Orthogonal Testing.

Construction and agricultural waste recycling have gained more and more attention recently as renewable resources. Straw and construction waste, both of which are widespread in northern Fujian, were investigated in this research. The orthogonal test was used to investigate the effects of recycled aggregate, straw, and glazed hollow beads on the mechanical and thermal properties of recycled insulation concrete.

Green Innovation Behavior Toward Sustainable Tourism Development: A Dual Mediation Model.

The rapid increase in globalization has fostered the emerging ecological challenges to halt human civilization, substantially highlighting the need for environmental management. The study's primary objective is to analyze the impact of environmental perception of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and attitude toward environmental CSR on sustainable tourism development while considering the mediating role of national park identification goals and employee pro-environmental behavior. The data was collected from the 338 employees working in the Chinese tourist firms'.

Saikosaponin D exerts antidepressant effect by regulating Homer1-mGluR5 and mTOR signaling in a rat model of chronic unpredictable mild stress.

Background: Many studies about depression have focused on the dysfunctional synaptic signaling in the hippocampus that drives the pathophysiology of depression. Radix Bupleuri has been used in China for over 2000 years to regulate liver-qi. Extracted from Radix Bupleuri, Saikosaponin D (SSD) is a pharmacologically active substance that has antidepressant effects.

Extracellular Vesicles: Emerging Roles in Developing Therapeutic Approach and Delivery Tool of Chinese Herbal Medicine for the Treatment of Depressive Disorder.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited particles released by cells, which play an essential role in intercellular communication by delivering cellular components including DNA, RNA, lipids, metabolites, cytoplasm, and cell surface proteins into recipient cells. EVs play a vital role in the pathogenesis of depression by transporting miRNA and effector molecules such as BDNF, IL34. Considering that some herbal therapies exhibit antidepressant effects, EVs might be a practical delivery approach for herbal medicine.
