Objective:To analyze the extraction, chemical composition, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activity of the TCM formula essential oil for the treatment of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI); To provide a scientific basis for its further development.Methods:The formula essential oil was extracted using the steam distillation method and analyzed for chemical composition by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The DPPH, ABTS scavenging ability, and hydroxyl radical scavenging ability of volatile oils were measured. The effect of the essential oil on the viability of RAW264.7 cells was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. ELISA and Western blot methods were used to determine the effects of volatile oil on LPS induced inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α.Results:The average extraction rate of the formula essential oil was 1.12%, with a density of 0.973 2 g/ml. Twelve main chemical components were identified, with 1,8-cineole (42.9%) and patchoulol (19.9%) being the predominant constituents. The essential oil exhibited DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging capacities of 52% and 59%, respectively, and a hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity exceeding 70%. Essential oil could reduce the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α ( P<0.05). Conclusion:TCM formula essential oil for the treatment of URTI contains multiple bioactive components and demonstrates significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Science and technological advancements drive human progress, with laboratory animals serving as essential resources for developments in life sciences and medicine. However, the waste generated by these animals presents new challenges for urban management. Issues such as classification, recycling, effective utilization, and biohazard elimination must be addressed, necessitating the development of regulations, standards, and norms to keep pace with advancements. The construction of quality management system is the foundation and framework for the management of inspection and testing organizations. It should have strong operability and inspectability, enabling continuous improvement of the management level and enhancing the stability of basic management. However, current quality management systems often lack clarity in managing laboratory animal waste, including undefined disposal processes for non-medical institutions, inaccurate waste classification, and inadequate disposal methods for different waste categories. This paper addresses these challenges by identifying necessary processes to be added or removed in the quality management system of National Institutes for Food and Drug Control, developing effective SOPs, proposing practical measures to strengthen supervision and management, and integrating 6S management principles into our quality management system. In conclusion, effective management of laboratory animal waste should be centered on improving the quality management system, emphasizing waste classification and management at the source, controlling biological hazards, minimizing environmental pollution and promoting conditions for sustainable development.

This study was performed to explore the downstream mechanism of TRIB3 mediated macrophage pro-inflammatory M1 polarization under high glucose condition.RAW264.7 were divided into CON-DMSO group,CON-SC79 group,HG-DMSO group,and HG-SC79 group.Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of TRIB3,AKT and p-AKT.Then,RAW264.7 were divided into control vector-DMSO group,TRIB3 overexpress-DMSO group,control vector-SC79 group,TRIB3 overexpress-SC79 group,control vector-MK2206 group,and TRIB3 overexpress-MK2206 group.CCK-8 was used to detect cells activity;phase contrast microscope was used to observe cell morphology;Western blot was used to detedcted the protein expressions of TRIB3,AKT,p-AKT,iNOS and Arg-1.ELISA was used to detedcted the protein secretion of IL-1β and IL-10.Data showed that TRIB3 was significantly increased and p-AKT/AKT was significantly decreased in HG group as compared with the CON group.Compared with corresponding control vector group,TRIB3 was significantly increased and p-AKT/AKT was significantly decreased in TRIB3 overexpress group.Compared with corresponding DMSO group,p-AKT/AKT was significantly increased in SC79 group,and was significantly decreased in MK2206 group.Compared with TRIB3 overexpress-DMSO group,TRIB3 overexpress-SC79 group showed significant reduction in spindle shaped and irregular shaped cells,significantly decreased iNSO and IL-1β,and significantly increased IL-10.TRIB3 overexpress-MK2206 group showed further increase in spindle and irregular shaped cells,significantly decreased Arg-1 and IL-10,and significantly increased IL-β.In conclusion,TRIB3 activated under high glucose condition exerts pro-inflammatory effect by targeting AKT phosphorylation to induce M1 polarization and inhibit M2 polarization in macrophages.
