Notum, a negative feedback regulator of the Wnt signaling, has emerged as a promising target for treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP). This study showcases an efficient strategy for discovering the anti-Notum constituents from herbal medicines (HMs) as novel anti-GIOP agents. Firstly, a rapid-responding near-infrared fluorogenic substrate for Notum was rationally engineered for high-throughput identifying the anti-Notum HMs. The results showed that Bu-Gu-Zhi (BGZ), a known anti-osteoporosis herb, potently inhibited Notum in a competitive-inhibition manner. To uncover the key anti-Notum constituents in BGZ, an efficient strategy was adapted via integrating biochemical, phytochemical, computational, and pharmacological assays. Among all identified BGZ constituents, three furanocoumarins were validated as strong Notum inhibitors, while 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MP) showed the most potent anti-Notum activity and favorable safety profiles. Mechanistically, 5-MP acted as a competitive inhibitor of Notum via creating strong hydrophobic interactions with Trp128 and Phe268 in the catalytic cavity of Notum. Cellular assays showed that 5-MP remarkably promoted osteoblast differentiation and activated Wnt signaling in dexamethasone (DXMS)-challenged MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. In dexamethasone-induced osteoporotic mice, 5-MP strongly elevated bone mineral density (BMD) and improved cancellous and cortical bone thickness. Collectively, this study constructs a high-efficient platform for discovering key anti-Notum constituents from HMs, while 5-MP emerges as a promising anti-GIOP agent.

In order to establish a simple,sensitive and specific diagnostic method for the simultane-ous detection of Mycoplasma hyorhinis(Mhr)and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae(Mhp)in swine,specific primers and probes were designed using the Mhr p37 and Mhp p36 gene sequences as the target genes,and the dual LFD-RPA rapid test was established by screening the primers and probes,optimizing primer ratios and evaluating its effectiveness through the sensitivity,reproduc-ibility and clinical sample testing.The sensitivity,specificity,reproducibility and clinical samples were evaluated.The results showed that the established dual LFD-RPA assay could complete the amplification in 15 min at 39 ℃,and its optimal primer ratio was 1.6∶0.8,and the lowest detection limits were up to 3.63 and 3.60 copies/μL,respectively;the reproducibility was stable;and there was no cross-reactivity with Pasteurella multocida,Bordetella bronchiseptica,Haemophilus pa-rasuis,Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae,Escherichia coli.The test successfully established a dual LFD-RPA assay,which can detect Mhr and Mhp simultaneously,and is simple,sensitive and spe-cific without relying on specialized equipment,and is suitable for carrying out on-site rapid diagno-sis of Mhr and Mhp.

Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor in the digestive system， ranking third in incidence and second in the cause of death worldwide. In recent years， the incidence of colorectal cancer is on the rise， and the age of patients with colorectal cancer tends to be younger， with a heavy cancer burden. It is of great significance to prevent the occurrence， development， recurrence， and metastasis of colorectal cancer to reduce the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. Patriniae Herba has the effects of clearing heat， removing toxins， eliminating carbuncle， and discharging pus and shows good therapeutic efficacy on inflammatory bowel disease， digestive tract tumors， pelvic inflammation， gynecological tumor， and so on. Patriniae Herba is often used in the clinical treatment of colorectal cancer， but its mechanism of action is not clear. Modern studies have found that Patriniae Herba contains triterpenoids， saponins， iridoids， flavonoids， and other chemical components， with antioxidant， anti-tumor， anti-bacterial， and other pharmacological effects. The main anti-tumor components of Patriniae Herba are flavonoids. The analysis of network pharmacology and the spectrum-effect relationship has suggested that quercetin， luteolin， apigenin， isoorientin， and isovitexin play a major role in inhibiting the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer. In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that flavonoids in Patriniae Herba can play an anti-tumor role in various ways， such as preventing precancerous lesions of colorectal cancer， inhibiting the growth and proliferation of cancer cells， blocking cancer cell cycle， promoting cancer cell apoptosis， and reversing drug resistance of colorectal cancer. The oral availability of flavonoids is low. The gut is the main metabolic site of flavonoids in the body， its metabolic pathway is closely related to gut microbiota. This paper reviewed the anti-tumor mechanism of flavonoids and their influence on gut microbiota to provide a reference for further research on the mechanism of Patriniae Herba against colorectal cancer and its clinical application.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Chaihu Shugansan in the treatment of functional dyspepsia in rats based on mitophagy and PTEN-induced kinase 1 （Pink1）/E3 ubiquitin ligase （Parkin）. signaling pathway. MethodAccording to the principle of random grouping， 40 SD rats were assigned into a normal group， a model group， a Chaihu Shugansan group， and a positive drug （domperidone） group， with 10 rats in each group. The rats in other groups except the normal group received tail-clamping stimulation to replicate the model of functional dyspepsia. After each time of stimulation， the rats in the normal， model， Chaihu Shugansan， and positive drug groups were administrated with normal saline， normal saline， Chaihu Shugansan （4.8 g·kg^-1）， and an aqueous solution of domperidone （4.5 mg·kg^-1）， respectively. After 28 days of modeling， the gastric emptying rate and the small intestine propulsion rate of the rats in each group were measured and the tissue samples were collected. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was employed for observation of damage in gastric antrum tissue， and transmission electron microscopy （TEM） for ultrastructural observation of gastric interstitial cells of Cajal （ICCs）. Immunofluorescence co-localization was adopted to observe the expression of cytochrome c oxidase （COX Ⅳ） and Parkin. Western blot was employed to determine the expression levels of microtubule-associated protein 1， light chain 3 （LC3）， and the mitophagy-associated proteins prohibitin2 （PHB2）， Pink1， Parkin， and ubiquitin-specific protease 30 （USP30）. ResultCompared with the normal group， the modeling decreased the gastric emptying rate and the small intestine propulsion rate （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， Chaihu Shugansan increased the gastric emptying rate and the small intestine propulsion rate （P<0.05）. The results of TEM showed that Chaihu Shugansan reduced the swelling degree of mitochondria in gastric antrum tissue. Compared with the normal group， the modeling increased the fluorescence intensity of Parkin in mitochondria （P<0.01）， while such increase can be alleviated by Chaihu Shugansan （P<0.01）. Western blotting results showed that compared with the normal group， the modeling up-regulated the protein levels of LC3， Pink1， Parkin， and PHB2 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and down-regulated the protein level of USP30 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Chaihu Shugansan down-regulated the protein levels of LC3， Pink1， Parkin， and PHB2 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and up-regulated the protein level of USP30 （P<0.01）. ConclusionChaihu Shugansan may treat functional dyspepsia by blocking the Pink1/Parkin signaling pathway to inhibit excessive mitochondrial autophagy in ICCs.
