A bioassay-guided fractionation was performed to evaluate the anthelmintic activity of the crude extract fractions and osthole from Radix angelicae pubescentis against Dactylogyrus intermedius in goldfish (Carassius auratus) in vivo. Among four extracts (petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, acetone, and ethanol), only ethanol extract exhibited the best anthelmintic efficacy with 100% mortality of Dactylogyrus and no death of fish at the optimal anthelminthic concentration of 120 mg/L. Therefore, ethanol extract was subjected to column chromatography to obtain sixteen fractions. The activity was found in fraction F with 100% mortality of Dactylogyrus and no toxicity to fish at dose of 2.0 mg/L. A white crystal was isolated from fraction F and identified as osthole which exhibited the optimal activity with 100% mortality of Dactylogyrus at 1.6 mg/L had and no toxicity to fish at dose up to 6.2 mg/L. This is the first report on the isolation and identification of anthelmintic active compound from R. angelicae pubescentis against D. intermedius in goldfish (C. auratus) in vivo.

This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Angelicae Pubescentis Radix (APR) against non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and elucidate its underlying mechanisms through an integrated approach combining network pharmacology, molecular docking and experimental validation. Serum pharmacochemistry and network pharmacology were employed to identify bioactive compounds in APR and their potential targets related to NASH. A choline-deficient, L-amino acid-defined, high-fat diet (CDAHFD)-induced NASH mouse model was established to evaluate the therapeutic effects of APR.

This study developed an effective approach for discriminating geographical origins of Duhuo samples using non-targeted UPLC chromatograms and UV-Vis spectrogram images combined with a two-dimensional convolution neural network (2D-CNN). For comparison, four machine learning methods-extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), random forest (RF), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and support vector machine (SVM) were applied to analyze UPLC, UV-Vis data matrix, and concentrations of seven target compounds. Enhanced by data augmentation, 2D-CNN demonstrated superior accuracy, with 98.

This study aims to explore the therapeutic potential of Radix (APR), a traditional Chinese medicine that is widely known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-microbial properties, using a mouse model. In this study, 30 mice were selected and divided into three groups: control group (CD), infection group (ED), and treatment group (TD). Mice in the TD were gavaged with APR oil (0.

(ASR) and (APR), as traditional herbal medicines, are often confused and doped in the material market. However, the traditional identification method is to characterize the whole herb with a single or a few components, which do not have representation and cannot realize the effective utilization of unknown components. Consequently, the result is not convincing.
