The medicinal materials of Bawei Chenxiang Pills(BCPs) were extracted via three methods: reflux extraction by water, reflux extraction by 70% ethanol, and extraction by pure water following reflux extraction by 70% ethanol, yielding three extracts of ST, CT, and CST. The efficacy of ST(760 mg·kg~(-1)), CT(620 mg·kg~(-1)), and CST(1 040 mg·kg~(-1)) were evaluated by acute myocardial ischemia(AMI) and p-chlorophenylalanine(PCPA)-induced insomnia in mice, respectively. Western blot was further utilized to investigate their hypnosis mechanisms. The main chemical components of different extracts were identified by the UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS technique. The results showed that CT and CST significantly increased the ejection fraction(EF) and fractional shortening(FS) of myocardial infarction mice, reduced left ventricular internal dimension at end-diastole(LVIDd) and left ventricular internal dimension at end-systole(LVIDs). In contrast, ST did not exhibit significant effects on these parameters. In the insomnia model, CT significantly reduced sleep latency and prolonged sleep duration, whereas ST only prolonged sleep duration without shortening sleep latency. CST showed no significant effects on either sleep latency or sleep duration. Additionally, both CT and ST upregulated glutamic acid decarboxylase 67(GAD67) protein expression in brain tissue. A total of 15 main chemical components were identified from CT, including 2-(2-phenylethyl) chromone and 6-methoxy-2-(2-phenylethyl) chromone. Six chemical components including chebulidic acid were identified from ST. The results suggested that chromones and terpenes were potential anti-myocardial ischemia drugs of BCPs, and tannin and phenolic acids were potential hypnosis drugs. This study enriches the pharmacological and chemical research of BCPs, providing a basis and reference for their secondary development, quality standard improvement, and clinical application.

Objective To investigate the impact of Astragaloside-IV (AS-IV) on the progression of myocardial infarction (MI) through macrophage-dependent mechanisms by regulating Snail1 lactylation and acetylation, as well as the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) pathway. Methods Oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) was used to establish an in vitro myocardial ischemia model in rat cardiomyocytes (H9c2), which were then treated with AS-IV. Cell viability was assessed using CCK-8, apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry, and LDH levels were measured to assess cellular damage. RAW246.7 cells were treated with LPS, and lactate levels in the supernatant were measured using ELISA, while expression of macrophage phenotype markers was evaluated using Western blot. RAW246.7 cell-conditioned medium (CM) was co-cultured with H9c2 cells to assess the protective effects of AS-IV on macrophage CM-mediated H9c2 damage. RAW246.7 cells were induced to differentiate into M1-like macrophages using LPS (100 ng/mL) + IFN-γ (20 ng/mL), and Snail1 was overexpressed in M1 macrophages. Transfected M1 macrophage CM was co-cultured with H9c2 cells to validate the mechanisms of AS-IV in MI. An MI rat model was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), and was treated with AS-IV. Cardiac function, myocardial cell apoptosis, and cardiac tissue pathology were studied using echocardiography, TUNEL, and HE staining, respectively. Results Compared to the OGD group, AS-IV treatment promoted cell viability, reduced apoptosis and decreased LDH release. LPS upregulated lactate levels in the supernatant of RAW246.7 cell cultures and induced polarization of RAW246.7 cells to the M1 phenotype. AS-IV attenuated the damaging effects of RAW246.7 cell CM on H9c2 cells . Overexpression of Snail1 in M1 macrophages weakened the protective effects of AS-IV on H9c2 cells . In vivo study, results showed that, compared to the MI group, AS-IV treatment reduced lactate levels in the hearts of MI rats, improved cardiac function and myocardial injury and attenuated myocardial cell apoptosis. Conclusion AS-IV inhibits TGF-β pathway activation through the suppression of Snail1 lactylation and acetylation in a macrophage-dependent manner, thereby mitigating myocardial cell damage following MI.

Myocardial infarction is a cardiovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality rates. Hydrogel biomaterials mimicking the extracellular matrix have recently been shown to demonstrate excellent biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, favorable biodegradability, and multifunctionality, showcasing significant potential for treatment of myocardial infarction. Hydrogels can provide mechanical support to the damaged myo-cardium, alleviating pathological remodeling. Moreover, their porous structure makes them ideal carriers for localized and sustained drug delivery. Hydrogels derived from various matrices-including polysaccharides, polypeptides, proteins, decellularized extracellular matrix, and synthetic polymers-exhibit distinct properties in terms of biocompatibility, mechanical performance, and drug delivery capacity. These hydrogels support tissue regeneration and enable targeted release of diverse therapeutics, meeting the various therapeutic demands for myocardial repair. In the infarcted myocardial microenvironment, endogenous signals such as low pH, specific enzyme expression, and elevated levels of reactive oxygen species can trigger responsive drug release from hydrogels, while external physical stimuli-such as ultrasound, light, and magnetic fields-can also be employed to precisely control the release process, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy and reducing systemic side effects. This review summarizes recent advances in hydrogel-based drug delivery systems for treatment of myocardial infarction, focusing particularly on the characteristics and advantages of different hydrogel materials for myocardial repair. Furthermore, the responsive drug release behavior of hydrogels is analyzed in the context of the cardiac injury microenvironment, providing a reference for future research.

Acute myocardial infarction and acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding are both critical internal medicine conditions. The incidence of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with acute myocardial infarction ranges from 5.31% to 8.90%, with a mortality rate as high as 20.50% to 35.70%. The pathogenesis may be related to the use of antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs, as well as stress-induced injury. In treatment, the contradiction between antiplatelet/anticoagulation therapy and bleeding has made this disease a significant challenge in modern medicine. Therefore, re-exploring the etiology, pathogenesis, treatment principles, and methods of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) for acute myocardial infarction and acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding is of great clinical importance. The research team has been working year-round in the coronary care unit(CCU), managing a large number of such severe patients. By revisiting classic texts and delving into the foundational theories of TCM and historical medical literature, it has been found that this disease falls under the category of "distant blood" in the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber. In terms of etiology, it is primarily associated with weakness of healthy Qi and damage caused by drug toxicity. In terms of pathogenesis, in the acute stage, it mainly manifests as insufficient spleen Yang, deficiency of spleen Qi, and failure of the spleen to control blood. In the remission stage, it is characterized by deficiency of both heart Qi and spleen blood. For treatment, during the acute stage, Huangtu Decoction is used to warm Yang and restrain blood, while in the remission stage, Guipi Decoction is administered to tonify Qi and nourish blood. During the treatment process, for patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding, it is crucial to flexibly apply the treatment principles of "Nil per os" in western medicine and "where there is stomach Qi, there is life; where there is no stomach Qi, there is death" in TCM. Early intervention with Huangtu Decoction can also prevent bleeding, with large doses being key to achieving hemostasis. It is important to address the pathogenesis of heat syndrome in addition to the core pathogenesis of Yang deficiency bleeding and to emphasize the follow-up treatment with Guipi Decoction for a successful outcome.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the prognosis and influencing factors of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to late stent thrombosis (LST) and very late stent thrombosis (VLST). METHODS: Patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI caused by LST and VLST at Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2016 to June 2021 were selected as the study subjects, and long-term follow-up was conducted. The baseline clinical features, laboratory examination indicators, echocardiography results, coronary angiography and intervention treatment characteristics, and antiplatelet treatment status of patients were collected. The study endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), including all-cause mortality, target vessel revascularization (TVR), myocardial infarction, and recurrent stent thrombosis (RST). Patients were divided into MACE group and non-MACE group based on the occurrence of MACE. Cox regression analysis was used to determine the univariate and multivariate predictive factors for MACE occurrence in STEMI patients caused by LST and VLST during long-term follow-up after PCI. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted to analyze the cumulative survival rate without MACE during follow-up in subgroups of patients with different levels of fibrinogen (Fib) and initial number of stents. The incidence of MACE among patients receiving different drug-eluting stent (DES) treatments was compared. RESULTS: A total of 418 patients diagnosed STEMI caused by LST and VLST through coronary angiography were enrolled, of which 115 had MACE and 303 did not. Among them, 404 cases (96.65%) completed follow-up, with a median follow-up time of 27.25 (18.00, 37.00) months. Cox regression analysis showed that Fib [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.840, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.329-6.066, P = 0.007], non-culprit vascular stenosis > 50% (HR = 5.974, 95%CI was 1.634-21.848, P = 0.007), initial stent quantity (HR = 3.314, 95%CI was 1.677-6.552, P = 0.001), B2/C lesions (HR = 5.463, 95%CI was 1.396-21.373, P = 0.015), and cardiogenic shock (HR = 4.141, 95%CI was 1.101-15.568, P = 0.035) were independently associated with the occurrence of MACE. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the higher the Fib level, the lower the cumulative survival rate without MACE (82.8%, 70.1%, 40.5%, P < 0.01); the more initial stents, the lower the cumulative survival rate without MACE (75.0%, 57.7%, 36.5%), with patients with initial stents ≥ 3 having the lowest cumulative survival rate without MACE (P < 0.001). A total of 210 patients (50.2%) received secondary stent treatment, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of MACE between patients receiving first and second generation DES treatment (27.3% vs. 24.7%, P > 0.05), but patients receiving first generation DES had a higher proportion of all-cause mortality (22.3% vs. 10.1%, P < 0.05). Compared with patients receiving smaller diameter DES treatment (< 2.75 mm), patients receiving larger diameter DES treatment (≥2.75 mm) had a significantly lower incidence of MACE (20.5% vs. 35.9%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Long-term clinical outcomes after PCI for STEMI due to LST and VLST are unfavorable, with a high rate of MACE. The treatment of this particular type STEMI remains challenging, re-implantation of second generation DES or a larger diameter DES (≥2.75 mm) may be beneficial.

Myocardial infarction(MI) is a cardiovascular disease with high disability and mortality rates in clinical practice, which can subsequently develop into complications such as heart failure(HF) or cardiac rupture. Proteomics can track changes in relevant functional molecules during the occurrence and progression of diseases from an overall, molecular, systematic, and flux perspectives. Utilizing proteomic techniques to deeply explore the functional targets, molecular mechanisms, and network effects of MI and HF can aid in early diagnosis, early warning, and drug treatment of these diseases. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the prevention and treatment of HF following MI using traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), particularly in elucidating the complex mechanisms of action through proteomic techniques. This article systematically reviewed research on the intervention mechanisms of TCM compound prescriptions and their active ingredients in HF after MI, and explored related in vivo pathways. Additionally, it discussed the role of proteomics in protein biomarker discovery, post-translational modifications of proteins, protein-protein interactions, spatial proteomics, and more, with the aim of advancing the deep application of proteomic techniques in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases with TCM.

This study aims to investigate the effect of Linggui Zhugan Decoction(LGZGD) on autophagy in the mouse model of chronic heart failure(CHF) induced by myocardial infarction(MI), as well as the regulatory effect of LGZGD on the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)/heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) signaling pathway, based on bioinformatics and animal experiments. The active ingredients and corresponding targets of LGZGD were retrieved from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology and Analysis Database, and GEO, GeneCards, and DisGeNET were searched for the disease targets. Cytoscape was used to establish a "drug-component-target" network. The protein-protein interaction(PPI) network analysis was performed on STRING. R language was used for Gene Ontology(GO) and Kyoto Encycloperfia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) enrichment analyses. Molecular docking was adopted to validate the core targets. The mouse model of MI-induced CHF was established by surgical ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The modeled mice were assigned into the sham, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose(2.34, 4.68, and 9.36 g·kg~(-1), respectively) LGZGD, and captopril(3.25 mg·kg~(-1)) groups. After continuous administration for 6 weeks, a Doppler ultrasound imaging system was used to examine the heart function indicators: left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS), left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVIDs), and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension(LVIDd). The myocardial tissue was stained with hematoxylin-eosin for the observation of morphological changes. The mRNA levels of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta(LC3B), Beclin1, p62, HIF-1α, and HO-1 in the myocardial tissue were determined by RT-qPCR. The protein levels of LC3B, beclin1, p62, autophagy-related protein 5(ATG5), HIF-1α, and HO-1 were determined by Western blot. The results showed that 103 active components of LGZGD, corresponding to 224 targets, were obtained. A total of 3 485 and 6 165 targets related to MI and CHF, respectively, were retrieved. The GSE16499 dataset obtained 3 263 differentially expressed genes. There were 31 common targets. The top 3 core active components were quercetin, naringenin, and 1-methoxyphaseollidin. The topology analysis results showed that the core targets were MAPK3, HMOX1(HO-1), MYC, ADRB2, PPARD, and HIF1A(HIF-1α). The molecular docking results showed strong binding between the core targets and the main active components of LGZGD. LGZGD significantly improved the heart function and alleviated the pathological changes in the myocardial tissue of mice. Western blot and RT-qPCR results showed that the HIF-1α/HO-1 signaling pathway and autophagy were activated in the model group. LGZGD up-regulated the levels of LC3B, Beclin1, ATG5, HIF-1α, and HO-1 while down-regulating the mRNA and protein levels of p62. In summary, LGZGD can enhance autophagy and improve the heart function in the mouse model of CHF after MI by upregulating the HIF-1α/HO-1 signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND: Preliminary studies have indicated that Shexiang Baoxin Pill (MUSKARDIA) has a coronary artery dilation effect and increases the coronary blood flow, relieving the symptoms of angina. This study aimed to evaluate the benefit of MUSKARDIA on patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS: This was a subgroup analysis of a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled phase IV trial. CAD patients with a medical history of DM or baseline fasting blood glucose (FBG) ≥7.0 mmol/L were grouped according to the treatment (standard therapy plus MUSKARDIA or placebo). The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), which was the composite outcome of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. The secondary outcome was the composite outcome of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina or heart failure, and coronary angioplasty. RESULTS: MACEs occurred in 2.6% (9/340) and 4.8% (18/376) of patients in the MUSKARDIA and placebo groups, respectively ( P  = 0.192). Secondary composite outcome was significantly less frequent with MUSKARDIA than with placebo (15.3% [52/340] vs . 22.6% [85/376], P  = 0.017). Risk of MACEs (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.69, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.31-1.57) was comparable between two groups. In patients with uncontrolled DM (≥4 measurements of FBG ≥7 mmol/L in five times of follow-up), the risk of secondary outcome was significantly lower with MUSKARDIA (5/83, 6.0%) than with placebo (15/91, 16.5%) (HR = 0.35, 95%CI: 0.13-0.95). CONCLUSION: As an add-on to standard therapy, MUSKARDIA shows a trend of reduced MACEs in patients with stable CAD and DM. Furthermore, MUSKARDIA may reduce the frequency of all-cause death, hospitalization, and coronary angioplasty in this population, especially in those with uncontrolled DM.

Jiming Powder is a traditional ancient prescription with good therapeutic effect in the treatment of heart failure, but its mechanism lacks further exploration. In this study, a mouse model of coronary artery ligation was used to evaluate the effect and mechanism of Jiming Powder on myocardial fibrosis in mice with myocardial infarction. The study constructed a mouse model of heart failure after myocardial infarction using the method of left anterior descending coronary artery ligation. The efficacy of Jiming Powder was evaluated from multiple angles, including ultrasound imaging, hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining, Masson staining, Sirius Red staining, and serum myocardial enzyme spectrum detection. Western blot analysis was performed to detect key proteins involved in ventricular remodeling, including transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1), α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA), wingless-type MMTV integration site family member 3a(Wnt3a), β-catenin, matrix metallopeptidase 2(MMP2), matrix metallopeptidase 3(MMP3), TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 1(TIMP1), and TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 2(TIMP2). The results showed that compared with the model group, the high and low-dose Jiming Powder significantly reduced the left ventricular internal diameter in systole(LVID;s) and diastole(LVID;d), increased the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS), effectively improved cardiac function in mice after myocardial infarction, and effectively reduced the levels of myocardial injury markers such as creatine kinase(CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB), and lactic dehydrogenase(LDH), thus protecting ischemic myocardium. HE staining showed that Jiming Powder could attenuate myocardial inflammatory cell infiltration after myocardial infarction. Masson and Sirius Red staining demonstrated that Jiming Powder effectively inhibited myocardial fibrosis, reduced the collagen Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio in myocardial tissues, and improved collagen remodeling after myocardial infarction. Western blot results showed that Jiming Powder reduced the expression of TGF-β1, α-SMA, Wnt3a, and β-catenin, decreased the levels of MMP2, MMP3, and TIMP2, and increased the level of TIMP1, suggesting its role in inhibiting cardiac fibroblast transformation, reducing extracellular matrix metabolism in myocardial cells, and lowering collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA content, thus exerting an anti-myocardial fibrosis effect after myocardial infarction. This study revealed the role of Jiming Powder in improving ventricular remodeling and treating myocardial infarction, laying the foundation for further research on the pharmacological effect of Jiming Powder.

This study aims to systematically review the efficacy and safety of different traditional Chinese medicine injections combined with conventional treatment for patients with post-acute myocardial infarction heart failure. The relevant randomized controlled trial(RCT) was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, EMbase, and Cochrane Library with the time interval from inception to May 13, 2023. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Network Meta-analysis was then performed in RevMan 5.3 and Stata 15.1. A total of 68 RCTs involving 11 traditional Chinese medicine injections and 5 995 patients were included. The results were explained based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA).(1) In terms of reducing major adverse cardiovascular event(MACE), the therapies followed the trend of Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment(83.8%) > Yiqi Fumai Injection+conventional treatment(57.1%) > Xuebijing Injection+conventional treatment(56.6%) > Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment(53.1%) > Shenfu Injection+conventional treatment(45.3%) > conventional treatment(4.0%).(2) In terms of increasing left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), the therapies followed the trend of Yiqi Fumai Injection+conventional treatment(84.0%) > Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment(69.6%) > Shenfu Injection+conventional treatment(62.7%) > Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment(61.6%) > Shuxuening Injection+conventional treatment(54.8%) > Shenqi Fuzheng Injection+conventional treatment(46.7%) > Shengmai Injection+conventional treatment(45.9%) > Breviscapine Injection+conventional treatment(39.9%) > Danhong Injection+conventional treatment(38.8%) > Huangqi Injection+conventional treatment(38.7%) > conventional treatment(7.3%).(3) In terms of reducing B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP), the therapies followed the trend of Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment(98.6%) > Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment(57.7%) > Shenfu Injection+conventional treatment(52.5%) > Shengmai Injection+conventional treatment(30.1%) > conventional treatment(11.0%).(4) In terms of reducing cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ), the therapies followed the trend of Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment(92.3%) > Yiqi Fumai Injection+conventional treatment(61.5%) > Shenfu Injection+conventional treatment(51.2%) > Shengmai Injection+conventional treatment(48.1%) > Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment(26.6%) > conventional treatment(20.3%).(5) In terms of reducing high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), the therapies followed the trend of Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment(79.9%) > Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment(68.1%) > Shenfu Injection+conventional treatment(63.1%) > Xuebijing Injection+conventional treatment(56.7%) > Shengmai Injection+conventional treatment(51.1%) > Shenqi Fuzheng Injection+conventional treatment(42.8%) > Huangqi Injection+conventional treatment(34.7%) > conventional treatment(3.5%).(6) A total of 22 RCTs reported the occurrence of adverse reactions, mainly involving the damage of the circulatory system, digestive system, and coagulation function. The current evidence suggested that Xinmailong Injection+conventional treatment may have the best therapeutic effect in reducing MACE and BNP; Yiqi Fumai Injection+conventional treatment may be the best in increasing LVEF; Shenmai Injection+conventional treatment may be the best in reducing cTnI and hs-CRP. The safety needs further quantitative research and analysis. However, more high-quality RCT is required to validate the above conclusions due to limitations in the quality and quantity of the included studies.
