ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of modified Xiehuangsan in treating tic disorders （TD） based on microglial polarization and the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor （NF）-κB pathway. MethodsSeventy-two Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly assigned into six groups： control， model， tiapride （0.025 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （12， 24， 48 g·kg^-1， respectively） modified Xiehuangsan， with 12 rats in each group. Except the control group， the other groups received intraperitoneal injection of 3，3'-iminodipropionitrile （IDPN） for 7 consecutive days for the modeling of TD. After successful modeling， the control and model groups were given normal saline via gavage， and the other groups were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage. After 28 days of continuous intervention， rat behaviors were observed， and the modified Xiehuangsan group showing the best anti-TD effect was selected for deciphering the treatment mechanism. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was conducted to observe morphological changes in the rat striatum. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of CD16 and CD206 in the striatum. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， IL-4， TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba1）， Fc receptor family for immunoglobulin （Ig）G type Ⅲ （CD16）， mannose receptor （CD206）， TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed increased stereotyped behaviors， locomotor activity， total movement distance， and movement speed， shortened resting time （P<0.01）， and noticeable pathological changes in the striatum. Compared with the model group， the tiapride group and modified Xiehuangsan groups exhibited reduced stereotyped behavior， locomotor activity， total movement distance， and movement speed， prolonged resting time （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and alleviated pathological changes in the striatum. Among the modified Xiehuangsan groups， the high-dose group had the best intervention effect and the mildest pathological changes. Therefore， the high-dose group was selected for further research. Compared with the control group， the modeling of TD increased Iba1 and CD16 expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 （P<0.05）， up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4 and MyD88 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated the protein level of NF-κB p65 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， modified Xiehuangsan reduced Iba1 and CD16 expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated the protein level of CD206 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α （P<0.05）， up-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionModified Xiehuangsan demonstrated a definite therapeutic effect on TD in rats. It may reduce neuroinflammation in TD rats by regulating the polarization of microglia in the striatum via the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture combined with low-frequency electrical pulse in the treatment of neurogenic bladder (NB) caused by spinal cord injury (SCI); To explore its effects on urodynamics.Methods:A randomized controlled trial study was conducted. A total of 116 patients with NB caused by SCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine from January 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the observation objects and divided into 2 groups with random number table method, with 58 cases in each group. On the basis of conventional bladder function training, the control group was given low-frequency electronic pulse therapy, while the observation group was treated with the Tongdu Tiaoshen method on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated continuously for 3 months. The urination conditions of the patients were observed before and after the treatment respectively, and the residual urine volume, single urine volume within 24 hours, the number of urine leaks within 24 hours, and the number of urinations within 24 hours were recorded; urodynamic parameters such as bladder volume, urine flow rate, detrusor pressure, bladder compliance, and detrusor contractility were measured using a urodynamic analyzer; the severity of NB symptoms was evaluated using the Chinese version of the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Scale (NBSS), and the quality of life was evaluated using the Chinese version of the Short Form Health Assessment Scale (SF-Qualiveen). The levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by ELISA. Adverse reactions were recorded during the treatment period and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 91.38% (53/58) in the observation group and 75.86% (44/58) in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=5.10, P=0.024). After treatment, the residual urine volume, single urine volume within 24 hours, frequency of urine leakage within 24 hours, and frequency of urination within 24 hours in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were -15.68, 3.75, -3.81, and -7.54 respectively, P<0.01). The bladder capacity, urine flow rate, detrusor pressure, bladder compliance and detrusor contractility were higher than those of the control group ( t values were 11.04, 7.49, 9.76, 5.65 and 4.36 respectively, P<0.01), while the NBSS score and SF-Qualiveen score were lower than those of the control group ( t values were -10.82 and -9.83 respectively, P<0.01). No obvious adverse reactions occurred in either group during the treatment period. Conclusion:Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture combined with low-frequency electrical pulses can improve the bladder function of NB caused by SCI, restore urodynamics, and improve the quality of life. Its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of inflammatory responses.

Objective:To establish a quality control method for Aiye standard decoction.Methods:The ultra performance liquid chromatogrphy (UPLC) column Waters ACQUITY HSS T3 C18 (2.1 mm×150 mm,1.8 μm) was used to gradient elution by acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid in water. 16 batches of Aiye standard decoction fingerprints were established by UPLC and the common peaks were determined in the fingerprints. The contents of 12 components were determined. The 16 batches of Aiye standard decoction were analyzed by similarity calculation, hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) for analysis of differential components of Artemisiae Argyi Folium from different origins.Results:A total of 13 common peaks were marked in the fingerprints of 16 batches of Aiye standard decoction, 12 of which were identified by comparison with reference substance, including chlorogenic acid, sochlorogenic acid A, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, caffeic acid,1,3-O-Dicaffeoylquinic acid, schaftoside, isochlorogenic acid B,1,5-O-Dicaffeoylquinic acid, isochlorogenic acid C, jaceosidin and eupatilin. Similarity evaluation, PCA and HCA all classified the 16 batches of Aiye standard decoction into 2 categories. Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis screened 5 differential biomarkers from 13 common peaks. The content determination results showed that the phenolic compounds and flavonoids in samples from Hubei were significantly higher than that in samples from other areas.Conclusion:This method can effectively analyze the differences in the quality of Aiye standard decoction from different origins, and provide reference for the formulation of quality standards for Aiye standard decoction and related preparations.
