ObjectiveTo study the therapeutic mechanism of Xihuang Wan for hyperplasia of mammary glands based on network pharmacology， molecular docking， and cell experiments. MethodsThe active ingredients and targets of Xihuang Wan were retrieved from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP） and A Bioinformatics Annotation daTabase for Molecular mechANism of Traditional Chinese Medicine （BATMAN-TCM） and supplemented by searching against PubChem and Swiss Target Prediction. The targets of differential metabolites in tissues and urine were obtained from previous metabolomics studies through PubChem and Swiss Target Prediction. GeneCards， Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）， PharmGKB， Therapeutic Target Database （TTD）， Drunbank were searched for the targets of hyperplasia of mammary glands. After the common targets were obtained via Veeny2.1.0， the STRING database was used to analyze the protein-protein interactions， and Cytoscape was used for the core target analysis and visualization. Gene Ontology （GO） and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） were employed for enrichment analysis. Molecular docking was carried out in Autodock， and cell experiments were conducted to verify the prediction results. In the cell experiments， estradiol and progesterone （E₂+P） were used to intervene in human mammary epithelial/MCF-10A cells， and thus the MCF-10A cell proliferation model was established. The cells were then treated with Xihuang Wan-medicated serum. The cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） was used to measure the cell proliferation， and flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis. The mRNA and protein levels of key factors in MCF-10A cells were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot， respectively. ResultsThe results of network pharmacology showed that 90 active ingredients and 316 common targets were obtained， from which 20 core targets and 38 corresponding active ingredients were screened out. The results of GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed that Xihuang Wan exerted effect against hyperplasia of mammary glands by regulating a variety of biological processes， which may be related to protein kinase B （Akt）-related molecular functions， estrogen signaling pathway， prolactin signaling pathway and other biological processes. The results of molecular docking showed that estrogen receptor 1 （ESR1）， serine/threonine kinase 1 （Akt1）， non-receptor tyrosine kinase （SRC）， and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） all had strong binding activity with the nine active ingredients， suggesting that Xihuang Wan exert the effect through the ESR1/SRC/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/Akt signaling pathway and the Janus kinase （JAK）/STAT3 signaling pathway. The results of cell experiments showed that E₂+P intervention in MCF-10A cells promoted the proliferation of MCF-10A cells （P<0.05）， while the Xihuang Wan-medicated serum inhibited the proliferation of MCF-10A cells exposed to E₂+P （P<0.05）. Flow cytometry showed that the Xihuang Wan-medicated serum promoted the apoptosis of MCF-10A cells exposed to E₂+P （P<0.01）. The results of Real-time PCR showed that the Xihuang Wan-medicated serum down-regulated the mRNA levels of PI3K， Akt， JAK2， and STAT3 in MCF-10A cells treated with E₂+P （P<0.01）. The results of Western blot showed that the Xihuang Wan-medicated serum inhibited the expression of p-PI3K/PI3K， p-Akt/Akt， p-JAK2/JAK2， and p-STAT3/STAT3 in MCF-10A cells treated with E₂+P （P<0.05）. ConclusionXihuang Wan may exert the effect against hyperplasia of mammary glands by inhibiting the proliferation and promoting the apoptosis of MCF-10A cells， which may related to the inhibition of the activation of PI3K/Akt and JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathways.

In order to establish a competitive chemiluminescent enzyme-linked immunoassay for rapid and quantitative detection of Senecavirus A antibodies,the polystyrene plate was coated with inactivated Senecavirus A antigen,and the monoclonal antibodies against Senecavirus A VP2 and VP3 proteins labeled by horseradish peroxidase(HRP)were used as the competitive enzymic anti-bodies of the antibodies in the serum samples.The standard curve of the calibrator prepared by di-lution of positive serum was drawn to achieve quantitative detection.The successfully established SVA competitive CLEIA reported the result within 45 minutes.The maximum dilution of 1∶2 048 for calibrator serum was still detectable with no cross-reaction with the standard positive serum of other five kinds of virus antigens such as foot-and-mouth disease.The coefficient of variation within batches was less than 10％,and the coefficient of variation between batches was less than 15％,which showed good repeatability and stability.The positive and negative coincidence rates were 95.30％and 97.57％,respectively,and the total coincidence rate was 96.88％,showing high consistency.The SVA competitive CLEIA assay established in this study can be used for the rapid quantitative detection of Senecavirus A antibodies,filling the gap in the domestic rapid quantitative detection of SVA antibodies.

Xihuang pills are a classic Chinese patent medicine following the theoretical principle of combining eliminating pathogen with reinforcing healthy qi in both local areas and the whole body， with the effects of clearing heat， detoxifying， alleviating edema， and dissipating mass. This medicine is traditionally used for treating carbuncle， furuncle， multiple abscess， carcinoma of breast， phlegm nodule， scrofula， lung abscess， and intestine abscess caused by fire depression， phlegm stasis， and heat toxin stagnation. It is used for treating malignant tumors， breast hyperplasia， herpes zoster， lymphadenitis， pelvic inflammatory disease， mastitis， vocal cord leukoplakia， and acne in modern medicine. Xihuang pills are now included in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The use of high-quality medicinal materials and modern technology enables full retaining of the active components in the medicinal materials. The chemical components in this medicine mainly include amino acids， terpenoids， fatty acids， fatty acid esters， phenols， bile acids， bile pigments， and volatile oils. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that a variety of active components such as bilirubin， bile acid， boswellic acid， and volatile oil in Xihuang pills interact with each other to exert anti-tumor， anti-breast hyperplasia， immunomodulatory， anti-inflammatory， and neuroendocrine-regulating effect. This paper reviews the research progress in the active components and pharmacological effects of Xihuang pills and predicts the quality markers （Q-markers） of this medicine according to the transmission， traceability， specificity， efficacy， measurability， and compound compatibility in the concept of Q-marker. It is suggested that bilirubin， bile acid， taurine， muskone， 11-carbonyl-β-boswellic acid， β-boswellic acid， 3-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid， octyl acetate， β-elemene， and myrrhone can be used as Q-markers of Xihuang pills， which can provide a basis for research on the material basis and the quality control of Xihuang pills.

Objective Based on the endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)inositol-requiring enzyme-1α(IRE1α)/apoptosis signal-regulated kinase 1(ASK1)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK)pathway to investigate the intervention effect of Ziziphi Spinosae Semen(ZSS)-Albiziae Flos(AF)on the depression model of rats,which were prepared by solitary rearing combined with chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS).Methods A total of 144 rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,high-,medium-and low-dose groups of ZSS-AF,and Venlafaxine group.In addition to the normal group,the rats in other groups were isolated for 21 days combined with CUMS to prepare the depression model.The behavioral changes of rats were observed by open field test and Morris water maze test.The ultrastructural changes of hippocampal neurons were observed by transmission electron microscope.TUNEL staining was used to observe the apoptosis of nerve cells in hippocampus.The protein expression levels of IRE1α,phosphorylated(P)-IRE1α,ASK1,P-ASK1,JNK,P-JNK,B cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2 associated X protein(Bax)and cysteme aspartate specific protease-3(Caspase-3)in hippocampus were detected by Western Blot.The mRNA expression levels of IRE1α,ASK1,JNK,Bax,Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in hippocampus were detected by Real-Time PCR.Results Compared with the normal group,the scores of horizontal movement and vertical movement in the open field test of rats in the model group were decreased(P＜0.01).In the water maze test,the escape latency was increased and the number of crossing the original platform was decreased(P＜0.01).The number of hippocampal apoptosis was increased(P＜0.01).The protein expression levels of P-IRE1 α/IRE1 α,P-ASK1/ASK1,P-JNK/JNK,Bax,Caspase-3 and mRNA expressions of IRE1α,ASK1,JNK,Bax,Caspase-3 in hippocampus were increased,while the protein and mRNA expression levels of Bcl-2 were decreased(P＜0.01).Compared with model group,the scores of horizontal movement and vertical movement in the open field test of rats in each dose ZSS-AF groups and Venlafaxine group were increased(P＜0.01).In the water maze test,the escape latency was decreased and the times of crossing the original platform was increased(P＜0.01).The number of hippocampal apoptosis was decreased(P＜0.01).The mRNA expression levels of P-IRE1α/IRE1α,P-ASK1/ASK1,P-JNK/JNK,Bax,Caspase-3 protein and IRE1α,ASK1,JNK,Bax,Caspase-3 in hippocampus were decreased,while the protein and mRNA expression levels of Bcl-2 were increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The effect of medium-dose ZSS-AF group was better than that of high-and low-dose groups.Conclusion ZSS-AF may play an antidepressant role by regulating IRE1α/ASK1/JNK pathway of endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Background: and Purpose CGG repeat expansion in the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of the Notch 2 N-terminal-like C gene (NOTCH2NLC) has been associated with neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) and oculopharyngodistal myopathy type 3 (OPDM3). Few OPDM3 patients have been reported. This report describes two OPDM3 patients with novel imaging findings who presented the typical features of NIID, and reviews all OPDM3 cases available in the literature. Methods: The available clinical, imaging, and pathological information was reviewed and investigated. CGG repeat expansion in the 5'UTR of NOTCH2NLC was tested using the repeatprimed polymerase chain reaction (PCR), followed by the fluorescence amplicon-length PCR to determine the number of CGG repeats. Results: Our two OPDM3 patients and most patients reported in the literature developed the typical clinical characteristics of NIID, including leukoencephalopathy, peripheral neuropathy, cognitive deterioration, pigmentary retinopathy, ataxia, tremor, acute encephalitis-like episodes, pigmentary retinopathy, miosis, and sensorineural hearing loss. In addition to typical imaging findings of NIID, our two patients exhibited diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) hyperintensities in the middle cerebellar peduncles, which have not been described previously. Muscle biopsies revealed rimmed vacuoles and p62-positive intranuclear inclusions in the myofibers in both patients. The skin biopsy performed in one patient detected typical eosinophilic intranuclear inclusions. Genetic analysis identified CGG repeat expansion in NOTCH2NLC as the causative mutation in the two patients. Conclusions Our two patients with OPDM3 had clinical characteristics of NIID and exhibited DWI abnormality in the cerebellum. Our results indicate that OPDM3 is within the spectrum of NIID and that DWI hyperintensities in the cerebellum are helpful for diagnosing NIID or OPDM3.
