Objective To determine the material basis of the antioxidant activity of Mori Folium by examining the spec-trum-effect relationship.Methods High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was utilized to establish the fingerprints of Mori Folium.The antioxidant activity of Mori Folium was assessed using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)radical scavenging assay and other related indicators.The spectrum-effect relationship of antioxidation was analyzed using gray relational analysis,bivariate correlation analysis,and partial least squares regression analysis.Molecular docking techniques were employed to predict potential interaction targets.Results HPLC fingerprints for 13 batches of Mori Folium were established,and thirteen common peaks were marked,with similarities ranging from 0.932 to 0.998.Nine common peaks were identified by comparing them to reference substances.Differences in antioxidant activity were observed among the different batches of Mori Folium.Based on the analysis of the spectrum-effect relationship,chemical components such as chlorogenic acid,cryptochlorogenic acid,rutin,and iso-chlorogenic acid B were found to contribute significantly to the antioxidant activity.These components may exert their effects by binding to several antioxidant protein targets,such as XOD,NO-1,and PPAR-α.This implies that Mori Folium might exert its an-tioxidant action via multiple components and targets.Conclusions By integrating the fingerprint and antioxidant activity of Mori Folium,the contributions of individual components to its antioxidant activity were determined.This study provides an experi-mental basis for elucidating the substances responsible for the antioxidant activity of Mori Folium and for establishing quality con-trol methods.

Objective:To identify the components of Prunus mume f. viridicalyx based on ultra performance liquid chromatography-QE-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UPLC-QE-Orbitrap-MS); To predict and analyze its substances and mechanisms to exert anti-depression effects combined with network pharmacology.Methods:UPLC-QE Orbitrap MS technology was used to analyze the chemical components of Prunus mume f. viridicalyx. Based on ChemSpider, mzCloud online platform, orbitrap TCM library and existing literature research, the secondary mass spectra of target compounds were compared and confirmed to identify the chemical composition of Prunus mume f. viridicalyx. The active components of the Prunus mume f. viridicalyx were screened. The Swiss Target Prediction database was used to predict targets with high correlation to active components in Prunus mume f. viridicalyx, and obtaining depression related disease targets from GeneCards and DisGeNET databases. The intersection targets of constituents and diseases were obtained using Venny platform. Protein-protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed by using String database, and the core targets were screened. Gene ontology function and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis of potential core targets were performed by using David database, and "active component-core target-signal pathway" network was constructed. PyMOL software was used to perform molecular docking between active components and key targets.Results:A total of 54 components, including organic acids, flavonoids and their glycosides, alkaloid, amino acids and other compounds were identified from Prunus mume f. viridicalyx. A total of 22 active components were screened and 92 active components and disease intersection targets were identified. A total of 13 core targets were screened through PPI network, including tumor necrosis factor, albumin, amyloid beta-protein precursor, AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 and so on. Enrichment analysis showed that Prunus mume f. viridicalyx mainly participated in transcription from RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter, gene expression, protein binding and other functions, and presented the effects of anti-depression through MAPK, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway and other pathways. 12 key targets and 7 key active components were further obtained through the analysis of the "active component-core target-signal pathway" network, three of them were confirmed as kaempferol, quercetin, and isorhamnetin by reference substance. Molecular docking showed that 3 compounds could bind to the target proteins of depression well.Conclusion:Prunus mume f. viridicalyx exerts antidepressant effects through multiple components, targets, and pathways, mainly through the MAPK signaling pathway.

Hepatolenticular degeneration, also known as Wilson's disease, is a type of autosomal recessive genetic disorder of copper metabolism. The causative gene, ATP7B, is located on the long arm of chromosome 13 and encodes a P-type ATPase that is involved in copper transport. Pathogenic mutations in the ATP7B gene sequence lead to the diminished or lost function of the ATP7B protein, resulting in pathological copper deposition in organs such as the liver, brain, kidneys, and cornea. Currently, the treatment of Wilson's disease primarily involves oral medications to promote copper excretion or reduce copper absorption so as to alleviate the state of illness. However, pharmacological treatment has objective limitations, including the need for lifelong therapy and varying degrees of adverse drug reactions in some patients. Gene therapy can fully correct the genetic defect, restore ATP7B protein function, achieve a curative effect, and improve the patient's quality of life.
