Objective:
To uncover the underlying mechanisms of action of the Yinlai decoction on high-calorie diet-induced pneumonia through proteomics analysis.
Methods:
Based on the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, lung tissue samples from normal and high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice in the GSE16377 dataset were selected as test cohorts to identify differentially expressed genes and conduct bioinformatics analyses. In the animal experiments, mice were randomly divided into the control (N), high-calorie diet pneumonia (M), and Yinlai decoction treatment (Y) groups. Mice in the M group received high-calorie feed and a 0.5 mg/mL lipopolysaccharide solution spray for 30 min for 3 d. The mice in the Y group were intragastrically administered 2 mL/10 g Yinlai decoction twice daily for 3 d. Pathological evaluation of the lung tissue was performed. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the lung tissue were identified using quantitative proteomics and bioinformatics analyses. The drug-target relationships between Yinlai decoction and core DEPs in the lung tissue were verified using AutoDock Vina and Molecular Graphics Laboratory (MGL) Tools. DEPs were verified by western blot.
Results:
GEO data mining showed that an HFD altered oxidative phosphorylation in mouse lung tissue. The Yinlai decoction alleviated pathological damage to lung tissue and pneumonia in mice that were fed a high-calorie diet. A total of 47 DEPs were identified between the Y and M groups. Enrichment analysis revealed their association with energy metabolism pathways such as the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) and oxidative phosphorylation. The protein-protein interaction network revealed that Atp5a1, Pdha1, and Sdha were the target proteins mediating the therapeutic effects of Yinlai decoction. Molecular docking results suggested that the mechanism of the therapeutic effect of Yinlai decoction involves the binding of brassinolide, praeruptorin B, chrysoeriol, and other components in Yinlai decoction to Atp5a1.
Conclusion
The Yinlai decoction alleviated lung tissue damage and pneumonia in mice that were fed a high-calorie diet by regulating the TCA and oxidative phosphorylation. Our study highlights the importance of a healthy diet for patients with pneumonia and provides a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of pneumonia through dietary adjustments.

Objective:To investigate the molecular pathological diagnostic strategy of twin pregnancy(TP) with complex genetic characteristics, using p57 immunohistochemistry and short tandem repeat (STR) genotyping.Methods:Ten cases of TP with suspected hydatidiform mole(HM) according to pathological morphology were collected in Peking University Third Hospital from 2015 to 2019, and were subject to p57 immunohistochemistry, STR genotyping and follow-up.Results:The age of ten patients ranged 23 to 36 years, with an average of 29.5 years. Seven patients accepted assisted reproductive techniques in this conception. Three patients with "divergent" p57 staining pattern were diagnosed as TP with complete HM by STR, in which one had a persistent trophoblastic disease. The villi of five patients were consistently positive for p57, but the genotyping result was polyploid and suspicious as TP. Four of them showed excessive paternal alleles at more than 40% of the loci, suggesting that concomitant partial moles could not be excluded. One patient was diagnosed as TP without HM according to the maternal allelic predominance at all loci in villi. Two patients with p57 "divergent" and "discordant" staining villi were genotyped as TP with mosaic conception.Conclusions:The correct identification of p57 staining pattern and accurate interpretation of STR genotyping results are important in diagnosing TP. It may assist pathologists in making a definite or likely diagnosis of TP with complex genetic features to fulfill clinical triage strategies and contribute to formulate a reasonable follow-up approach.
