Objective To investigate the protective effect of total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum extract against acetaminophen(APAP)-induced acute liver injury(ALI)and its molecular mechanism.Methods The main chemical constituents of total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum were obtained through literature search,and their pharmacological mechanisms were predicted using bioinformatics analysis.In a mouse model of APAP-induced ALI,the protective effects of 100,200 and 400 mg/kg total flavonoids of Salvia miltiorrhiza and 150 mg/kg bifidus were evaluated by observing changes in blood biochemistry and liver histopathology and detecting expressions of the key proteins in the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.Results Network pharmacology analysis suggested that the main active components in total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum for regulating APAP-induced liver injury included quercetin,lignocerol,caruric acid,and kaempferol,for which GO function enrichment analysis yielded 632 GO entries,including 472 involving biological processes,42 involving cellular composition,and 118 involving molecular function.KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum regulated APAP-induced liver injury mainly through ferroptosis-related signaling pathway.In mice with APAP-induced ALI,treatment with the total flavonoids significantly lowered ALT and AST levels,improved liver histopathology and inflammatory cell infiltration,reduced iron deposition in liver tissues,improved lipid peroxidation-related indexes,promoted the expressions of Nrf2,HO-1,SLC7A11,and GPX-4 proteins,and inhibited the expression of keap1 protein.Conclusion The total flavonoids of Salvia divinorum alleviate APAP-induced ALI in mice possibly by suppressing hepatocyte ferroptosis via activating the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX-4 signaling pathway.

This study aims to isolate two flavonoids and two diterpenoids from Isodon eriocalyx(Dunn. )Hara and investigate their antiviral activities in vitro. Firstly, four compounds were isolated from the ethanol extract of I. eriocalyx by silica gel, ODS and RP-HPLC chromatography, and then identified by spectral data as isothymusin(1), cirsimaritin(2), coetsoidin A(3), and maoecrystal D(4). Next, in vitro antiviral activities against influenza(H1N1/H3N2)and respiratory syncytial virus(RSV)was investigated for the ethanol extract of I. eriocalyx and four compounds. Results showed that the ethanol extract of I. eriocalyx and four compounds exhibited inhibitory effects against influenza H1N1. Especially, compounds 1 and 2 showed better activities with EC50 of(14. 45±4. 90)and(24. 54±3. 82)μmol/L. However, they showed weak inhibitory effects against influenza H3N2 and RSV. These results demonstrate that the ethanol extract of I. eriocalyx and compounds 1- 4 have antiviral activity, especially against influenza H1N1. The flavonoids may be one kind of the effective antiviral substances. This study provides a scientific basis for the clinical application of I. eriocalyx.

Artemisinin and its derivatives (ARTs) were reported to display heme-dependent antitumor activity. On the other hand, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) were known to be able to promote heme synthesis in erythroid cells. Nevertheless, the effect of HDACi on heme homeostasis in non-erythrocytes remains unknown. We envisioned that the combination of HDACi and artesunate (ARS) might have synergistic antitumor activity through modulating heme synthesis. studies revealed that combination of ARS and HDACi exerted synergistic tumor inhibition by inducing cell death. Moreover, this combination exhibited more effective antitumor activity than either ARS or HDACi monotherapy in xenograft models without apparent toxicity. Importantly, mechanistic studies revealed that HDACi coordinated with ARS to increase 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS1) expression, and subsequent heme production, leading to enhanced cytotoxicity of ARS. Notably, knocking down significantly blunted the synergistic effect of ARS and HDACi on tumor inhibition, indicating a critical role of ALAS1 upregulation in mediating ARS cytotoxicity. Collectively, our study revealed the mechanism of synergistic antitumor action of ARS and HDACi. This finding indicates that modulation of heme synthesis pathway by the combination based on ARTs and other heme synthesis modulators represents a promising therapeutic approach to solid tumors.
