ObjectiveZheng’s San Qi San (ZSQS) power, a classic traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, is used for treating soft tissue injuries involving muscles, tendons, and ligaments. However, its underlying therapeutic mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to screen and identify pharmaceutically active ingredients and their candidate biomolecule targets, and further elucidate the molecular mechanism of ZSQS in the treatment of skeletal muscle injury. MethodsNetwork pharmacology was employed to construct “ZSQS-component-target”, “protein-protein interaction (PPI)” and “active ingredient-core protein-pathway” networks to predict the key active ingredients and potential core targets of ZSQS for skeletal muscle injury. The predicted results were then validated via microarray data from the GEO database. Molecular docking was then performed to assess the binding ability between the screened active ingredients of ZSQS and the candidate core targets. Moreover, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used for qualitative and quantitative analysis to verify the active components of the drug and ZSQS serum. Finally, an animal model of eccentric exercise-induced skeletal muscle injury and a myotube cell model of oxidative stress-induced injury were established to validate the effects of ZSQS and its interventional effects on the biological functions of critical targets, thereby demonstrating the potential therapeutic mechanism of ZSQS. ResultsAmong the 111 active components identified in ZSQS and their corresponding 204 targets related to the skeletal muscle injury repair process, 14 core targets (including AKT1) and 4 core active components (quercetin, luteolin, kaempferol, and β‑sitosterol) were screened out, while the corresponding metabolites of quercetin, luteolin and kaempferol were detected in the ZSQS serum. Among these targets, 5 candidate genes (IL-6, CASP3, HIF1A, STAT3, and JUN) overlapped with the differential expression screening results with GEO data, and IL-6 was confirmed to be enriched in the PI3K/AKT pathway. Combined with the prediction results of the AKT expression levels, these findings suggest that the phosphorylation level of AKT1 plays a core role in the therapeutic mechanism of ZSQS. Molecular docking analysis further revealed that the PH domain of AKT1 had high binding energy with all 4 core active components, as verified by LC-MS. Finally, animal model studies have shown the promoting effect of ZSQS administration on skeletal muscle injury repair and its possible antioxidant damage mechanism. Cell model studies further demonstrated that ZSQS-containing serum, core active ingredient combination therapy, and quercetin monomer could increase the phosphorylation level of AKT, promote the nuclear translocation of Nrf2, upregulate the expression of downstream antioxidant enzymes (SOD, GPx, and GR), and inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors (IL-6 and TNF-α), thereby alleviating oxidative stress and the inflammatory response. ConclusionZSQS alleviates skeletal muscle injury mainly by activating the AKT/Nrf2 signaling pathway, enhancing cellular antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities. The results of this study provide a scientific basis for the clinical application and modernized development of ZSQS.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of magnolol ester derivative YW against cisplatin （Cis）-induced acute kidney injury （AKI） and to explore its effect and preliminary mechanisms on Cis-induced AKI. MethodsThe research group designed and synthesized the magnolol ester derivative YW using magnolol as the parent core. Molecular docking was employed to predict the binding interaction between YW and lysine acetyltransferase 7 （KAT7）. A Cis-induced AKI model was established in C57BL/6J mice. Mice were divided into the normal control group， model group， YW low/medium/high dose groups （17.5， 35， 70 mg/kg）， and the positive control amifostine group. Renal function was assessed by measuring serum creatinine （Scr） and blood urea nitrogen （BUN） levels. Pathological changes were evaluated via HE staining and scoring of kidney tissues. Protein expression levels of kidney injury molecule 1 （KIM-1）， lysine acetyltransferase 7 （KAT7）， and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A （p21） in kidney tissues were detected by Western blot （WB）. HK-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of YW； cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. WB was used to detect the expression levels of the renal injury marker KIM-1， KAT7， and its downstream protein p21. Cellular senescence was assessed by senescence-associated β-galactosidase （SA-β-Gal） staining. ResultsYW could stably bind to KAT7. In vivo experiments showed that， compared with the model group， all YW dose groups， especially the medium and high doses， significantly reduced the elevated levels of Scr and BUN in AKI mice （P<0.001） and effectively ameliorated renal histopathological damage. YW significantly downregulated the protein expression levels of KIM-1， KAT7， and p21 in kidney tissues （P<0.05）. Concentrations of YW≤10 μmol/L had no significant effect on HK-2 cell viability. YW inhibited the Cis-induced decline in HK-2 cell viability （P<0.05）， suppressed the Cis-induced upregulation of KIM-1， KAT7， and p21 proteins （P<0.05）， and significantly decreased the percentage of SA-β-Gal-positive cells （P<0.01）. ConclusionYW suppresses the expression of KAT7 and p21 proteins and inhibits the decline in HK-2 cell viability in cisplatin-induced AKI， significantly mitigates HK-2 cell senescence， and improves renal function， providing preliminary experimental evidence for developing AKI treatment strategies based on structural optimization of natural products.

Objective:To investigate the effects of circular RNA fascin actin-bundling protein 1(circFSCN1)on the malignant biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells by regulating the microRNA-429(miR-429)/glycoprotein nonmetastatic melanoma protein B(GPNMB)axis and its mechanisms.Methods:The gastric cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues of 54 patients who underwent surgical resection at the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University between September 2022 and September 2023 were collected.The expressions of circFSCN1,miR-429 and GPNMB mRNA in gastric cancer tissues were detected by qPCR.Gastric cancer MGC803 cells were routinely cultured and divided into the control group,the sh-NC group,the sh-circFSCN1 group,the sh-circFSCN1+anti-NC group,and the sh-circFSCN1+anti-miR-429 group.The expressions of circFSCN1,miR-429 and GPNMB mRNA in MGC803 cells of each group were detected by qPCR.The proliferation,migration,invasion and apoptosis of MGC803 cells in each group were detected by CCK-8 method,colony formation assay,Transwell assay and flow cytometry,respectively.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expressions of GPNMB protein in cells of each group.WB assay was used to detect the expressions of PCNA,MMP-2,GPNMB and Cleaved Caspase-3 proteins in MGC803 cells of each group.Dual luciferase reporter assay and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation(RIP)assay were used to verify the binding regulatory relationship between circFSCN1 and miR-429,and between miR-429 and GPNMB.Results:circFSCN1 and GPNMB mRNA were both highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues(both P<0.05),while miR-429 was lowly expressed(P<0.05).Knockdown of circFSCN1 could promote the expression of miR-429 and inhibit the expression of GPNMB mRNA.Inhibition of miR-429 could promote the expression of GPNMB mRNA.Knockdown of circFSCN1 could significantly inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion abilities of MGC803 cells and promote their apoptosis.Inhibition of miR-429 could partially reverse the effect of circFSCN1 knockdown.Knockdown of circFSCN1 could inhibit the expressions of PCNA,MMP-2 and GPNMB proteins in MGC803 cells and inhibit the expression of cleaved caspase-3 protein.There was a targeted binding and negative regulatory relationship between circFSCN1 and miR-429 and between miR-429 and GPNMB mRNA.Conclusion:Knocking down circFSCN1 inhibits the malignant biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells through the miR-429/GPNMB axis,indicating that circFSCN1 is a potential therapeutic target for gastric cancer.

Aging is the result of the accumulation of various molecular and cellular damages over time,encompassing 12 characteristic hallmarks divided into three categories.These include primary hallmarks such as genomic instability,telomere attrition,epigenetic alterations,loss of proteostasis,and disabled macroautophagy;antagonistic hallmarks like deregulated nutrient sensing,mitochondrial dysfunction,and cellular senescence;and integrative hallmarks including stem cell exhaustion,altered intercellular com-munication,chronic inflammation and dysbiosis.Therefore,investigating cellular signaling factors within a single pathway is insufficient to comprehensively understand the complex mechanisms underlying aging.Casein kinase Ⅱ(CK2),one of the earliest identified protein kinases,is capable of phosphorylating ser-ine/threonine/tyrosine residues on hundreds of substrates.It exhibits highly constitutive expression and activity,and is extensively involved in the regulation of cellular processes such as proliferation,differenti-ation,apoptosis,stress response,metabolism,and immune function.CK2 plays a unique role in coordi-nating the cross-talk and integration of various signaling pathways,which is crucial for maintaining cell survival and homeostasis.Recent studies have revealed that CK2 exhibits perturbations in both expression levels and enzymatic activity during aging process,with notable heterogeneity observed across different animals,tissues and cellular models.Overall,the downregulation of CK2 expression not only promotes the development of primary hallmarks but also alleviates antagonistic hallmarks and ameliorates integrative hallmarks of aging,demonstrating dual effect and interconnected mechanisms.Notably,aberrant activa-tion in CK2 expression and activity are associated with various aging-related diseases,including cancer,cardiovascular diseases,chronic metabolic disorders,neurodegenerative diseases and skeletal degenera-tive conditions.Therefore,maintaining CK2 homeostasis may represent an effective strategy for delaying aging.This review summarizes the latest advances in CK2 and aging research,providing not only deeper insights into the common mechanisms underlying aging and aging-related diseases,but also a theoretical foundation for identifying potential targets for the early prevention of aging-related diseases.
