Objective To explore the mechanism of Angong Niuhuang pill on the neurological function of rats with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage based on the tumor necrosis factor-α/nuclear factor-κB(TNF-α/NF-κB)signaling pathway combined with network pharmacology.Methods The targets for treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage with Angong Niuhuang pill were obtained using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP),High-Throughput Experiment and Refeence-guided Database of Traditional Chinese Medicine(HERB).Key targets were screened for Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis and molecular docking.Then,rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model group,Angong Niuhuang pill group(administered by gavage at 270 mg·kg-1·d-1),and the Western medicine group(intraperitoneal injection of 4 500 mg·kg-1·d-1+furosemide 1.8 mg·kg-1·d-1),the dosage administered was the equivalent dose ratio calculated based on the body surface area for humans and animals.The intracerebral hemorrhage model was replicated by the autologous heart blood caudate nucleus injection method.After modeling,the neurological function behavior scores,brain tissue water content,pathological changes of brain tissue,blood-brain barrier permeability,and protein expression levels of NF-κB p65,tumor necrosis factor receptor 1(TNFR1),inhibitor NF-κBα(IκBα)and TNF-α in brain tissue of each group were observed.Results A total of 216 intersection genes were selected.The results of GO enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway annotation analysis predicted that the TNF-α/NF-κB inflammatory signaling pathway was one of the main regulatory pathways.The animal experiment results showed that at 72 hours after modeling,compared with the model group,the neurological function score,brain tissue water content,and blood-brain barrier permeability index evans blue(EB)content of the Angong Niuhuang pill group were significantly decreased[neurological function score:1.62±0.62 vs.2.23±0.58,brain water content:(77.7±0.49)%vs.(79.9±0.04)%,EB content(μg/L):490.50±100.79 vs.1 966.20±94.81,all P<0.05];the pathological observation of brain tissue showed that Angong Niuhuang pill could reduce the pathological damage of brain tissue around the hematoma,repair the blood-brain barrier,and alleviate brain edema;the Western blotting results showed that Angong Niuhuang pill could inhibit the protein expression of TNF-α,TNFR1,and NF-κB p65 in brain tissue[NF-κB p65 protein expresion(NF-κB p65/β-actin):2.27±0.52 vs.5.40±0.26;TNFR1 protein expression(TNFR1/β-actin):1.49±0.33 vs.2.52±0.04,TNF-α protein expression(TNF-α/β-actin):1.40±0.13 vs.2.29±0.18,all P<0.05],promote the protein expression of IκB-α(IκB-α/β-actin):0.78±0.02 vs.0.32±0.00,P<0.05).Conclusion Angong Niuhuang pill may regulate the TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathway by inhibiting the expression of TNFR1 and promoting the expression of IκB-α,exerting neuroprotective effects.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Euphorbia Lathyrol on expressions of IL-7,IL-10 and VEGF in renal clear cell neoplasias(RCCN)mice by regulating TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway.Methods:RCCN xenograft mice were established and divided into model group,Euphorbia Lathyrol group and Cisplatin group.Euphorbia Lathyrol group were given 20 mg/kg Euphorbia Lathyrol solution intragastric administration,model group were given 0.9%NaCl gastric feeding,Cisplatin group were given intraperito-neal injection of 4 mg/kg cisplatin solution,then mice weight and tumor volume were recorded.Expressions of TGF-β1,Smad2 and Smad4 were tracked down through Western blot.Expressions of immune factors IL-7 and IL-10 in serum of xenograft mice were detected by ELISA.Expression of VEGF in tumor mass was detected by IHC.Results:After 14 days of administration,compared with model group,the proliferation of tumor grafts in Cisplatin group and Euphorbia Lathyrol group was inhibited(P<0.05),and the expressions of TGF-β1,Smad2,Smad4 protein and VEGF were observably decreased(P<0.05),expressions of IL-7 in serum was increased,while level of IL-10 in serum was decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:Euphorbia Lathyrol is able to reduce expressions of IL-7,IL-10,as well as VEGF in RCCN xenograft mice by impeding TGF-β1/Smad signaling transduction system.
