Aim To discover the potential active compounds and possible mechanisms in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment with Zhi-Huang-Zhi-Tong powder (ZHZTP) by using network pharmacology and in vitro study. Methods The active ingredient targets and disease targets of Zhihuang Zhitong Powder were searched and screened by database; they intersected to get a common target; and the "drug-component-target" relationship network diagram was constructed for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of the overlapping genes; then the core components were docked with the core targets. Finally, based on the inflammation model of HUVECs in vitro, the efficacy and mechanism of Zhihuang Zhitong powder were verified by MTT method, plate scratch test and Western blot. Results Active compounds involved in RA treatment were screened in the present study, and the top two were ursolic acid and emodin, all playing crucial roles in RA treatment with ZHZTP. Additionally, the key target was AKTA, TNF and IL-6. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that ZHZTP regulated BP, MF and CC, and also focused on regulating AKTA, TNF and IL-6 signaling pathway. Molecular docking showed that interactions between key active compounds and key targets were stable. In vitro ZHZTP significantly inhibited cell viability and migration of TNF-a-stimulated HUVECs, and the involved mechanism may be associated with PI3K/AKT/m-TOR signaling. Conclusions The present study reveals that the potential active compounds of ZHZTP are ursolic acid and emodin, and moreover, the involved mechanisms of ZHZTP for RA treatment are associated with PI3 K/AKT/m-TOR signaling.

Objective To establish a human tonsil organoid model and investigate the immunological effects of this tonsil organoid infected by influenza virus.Methods Human tonsil tissue removed by adenoid hypertrophy surgery were subjected to gradient centrifugation,and then the obtain cells were cultured in vitro with using a 2.5D-Transwell chamber in combination with IL-2 and B cell activating factor(Baff)to construct a human tonsil organoid.Single cell transcriptome sequencing(scRNA-seq)was used to analyze the distribution of influenza virus receptors in different cell subsets of the tonsil organoid.Immunofluorescence assay and flow cytometry were applied to detect the immunological effects of the tonsil organoid in 48 h after influenza virus infection.Results The tonsil organoids were established successfully using this 2.5D-Transwell culture technique.scRNA-seq analysis showed that the receptors for influenza virus were extensively distributed in nearly all of cell subsets of tonsil organoids.In 48 h after influenza virus infection,the tonsil organoids could generate a large amount of plasma cells and memory B cells to produce specific IgG antibodies.In addition,direct infection of the virus promoted the production of TNF-α and IL-2 from CD8+T cells and the secretion of TNF-α,IFN-γ and IL-2 by CD4+T cells.Conclusion The tonsil organoids can be established successfully and reach maturity at about the 6th day after culture.The receptors for influenza virus are widely distributed in human tonsil organoids.Influenza virus directly infects human T cells,leading to T cell activation and cytokine releasing.Moreover,influenza virus infection also promotes B cells differentiate into plasma cells and induce the secretion of IgG as well as the formation of memory B cells.

Molecular imprinting is a biomimetic technique that simulates the specific recognition of biological macromolecules such as antibody. Based on molecular imprinting and high-specificity affinity analysis,the biomimetic imprinting affinity analysis (BIA) possesses many advantages such as high sensitivity,strong tolerance,good specificity and low cost,and thus,it has shown excellent prospects in food safety detection,pharmaceutical analysis and environmental pollution monitoring. In this review,the construction methods of recognition interfaces for BIA were summarized,including bulk polymerization,electro-polymerization and surface molecular imprinting. The application of molecularly imprinted polymers in different analysis methods,such as radiolabeled affinity analysis,enzyme-labeled affinity analysis,fluorescence-labeled affinity analysis,chemiluminescence affinity analysis and electrochemical immunosensor was mainly discussed. Furthermore,the challenges and future development trends of BIA in practical application were elucidated. This review might provide new reference ideas and technical supports for the further development of BIA technique.

Amino acid surfactants (AAS) have excellent properties such as low toxicity,antibacterial,mildness,and corrosion resistance. In recent years,they have been widely applied in the field of daily chemicals,food and pharmaceutical industry. It is pointed out that the structure at molecular level largely affects the physical and chemical properties of AAS materials. In this work,the structures of solid-state N-lauroyl-L-alanine (NLLA) including intermolecular interactions,molecular local dynamics and molecular assembly were investigated by a variety of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) techniques. Based on 2D 1H-1H double quantum-single quantum (2D 1H-1H DQ-SQ),1H-1H DQ sideband pattern and molecular simulation,it was found that there was a stable intermolecular hydrogen bond formed between the carboxyl units of two NLLA molecules. Combined with the study of 2D frequency switched Lee—Goldberg heteronuclear correlation (2D 13C-1H FSLG-HETCOR) and 13C T1,another type of hydrogen bond was probed,which existed between amide units of neighboring molecules. In addition,the conformation of alkyl chain ends was investigated. According to 1D 13C{1H}cross polarization/magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) and 2D 13C-1H FSLG-HETCOR spectra,it was revealed that the alkyl-chain ends had both gauche and trans conformations. Moreover,the trans conformation showed two distinct 13C chemical shifts,originated from two NLLA molecular assembly forms. Accordingly,two NLLA molecular assembly structures were suggested which were transoid form and cisoid form. This work provided a SSNMR investigation strategy for characterizing the molecular local structure and dynamics of AAS materials,which helped task of researching and developing materials with improved chemical and physical properties.
