Article Abstract
This study investigated the effect of Bushen Shengjing Decoction (BSSJD) to modulate SCF/c-kit signaling pathway-mediated apoptosis on spermatogenesis in rats with oligoasthenospermia (OAS). The glucoside of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F was given by gavage administration for OAS modeling in rats. The modeled rats were administered by gavage with BSSJD at different doses. Blood was collected from the abdominal aorta. The effect of BSSJD on OAS rats was determined by measuring serum testosterone (T), estradiol (E2) and luteinizing hormone (LH), epididymal index and testicular index, and sperm concentration and viability. Pathological changes in testicular tissues were observed. Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 mRNA levels, along with SCF and c-kit levels in the testis tissues of rats were measured. BSSJD improved sperm concentration and quality, increased T and E2 levels, and reduced LH levels in rats with OAS. BSSJD alleviated apoptosis by decreasing Bax and caspase-3 and increasing Bcl-2 in testicular tissues of rats with OAS. Isck03 reversed the improvement of spermatogenesis and apoptosis in OAS rats treated with BSSJD. BSSJD improves spermatogenic function in OAS rats, which may act by regulating SCF/c-kit signaling pathway-mediated apoptosis.

Food combinations featuring specific functional components represent one of the effective intervention strategies for alleviating functional gastrointestinal disorders induced by dietary and environmental factors. Honey and aloe vera have both been recognized as natural agents with laxative effects, yet the synergistic effects of their combination in alleviating constipation and the underlying regulatory mechanism remain to be elucidated. This study formulated a honey-aloe paste by employing honey as the primary ingredient compounded with aloe vera gel and investigated its preventive effects on loperamide-induced slow-transit constipation through a comprehensive analysis of gastrointestinal function and intestinal microenvironment.

Overexpression and gain-of-function mutations of c-Kit have been implicated in cancers including gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), acute myeloid leukemia, and systematic mastocytosis. In clinics, small molecule c-Kit inhibitors often result in secondary c-Kit mutations or are ineffective despite c-Kit overexpression. We developed NN3201, a novel c-Kit targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), via rational design to evaluate its anticancer activity in c-Kit-positive tumors, and preclinical pharmacologic profiles.

This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of nuciferine (Nuci) on a mouse model of slow transit constipation (STC) and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms, with a particular focus on its impact on the intestinal immune system and gut microbiota. STC was induced in mice using loperamide, and the animals were divided into normal control (NC), loperamide model (LOP), mosapride positive control (MOS), low-dose nuciferine (Nuci-L), and high-dose nuciferine (Nuci-H) groups. Comprehensive assessments were conducted through fecal analysis, intestinal transit tests, blood tests, histological examination (H&E staining), Western Blot, RT-PCR, and 16S rRNA sequencing to evaluate the therapeutic effects of nuciferine and its mechanisms in STC mice.

Previous studies have shown Radix Hedysari (RH)'s gastroprotective potential, but its active components and mechanisms remain uncharacterized. This study aimed to identify RH's bioactive fractions, elucidate protection mechanisms, establish flavonoid dose-effect relationships, and determine the pharmacodynamic basis. : Chemical profiling quantified eight flavonoids via HPLC.
