OBJECTIVE
To explore the mechanisms of the flavonoids from new "Zhe Eight Flavors" Quzhou Fructus Aurantii(PTFC) against hepatocellular carcinoma based on the prediction of network pharmacology and experimental verification.
METHODS
From TCMSP, TCMID, ETCM, BATMAN-TCM and SwissTargetPrediction databases, the potential target proteins of PTFC, including naringin, narirutin and neohesperidin were collected. Based on the GeneCards, CTD, Disgenet, and OMIM databases, a set of target proteins for hepatocellular carcinoma was constructed. Taking the intersection of potential target proteins of PTFC and target proteins of hepatocellular carcinoma, key target proteins were obtained and a protein-protein interaction network was established. Besides, GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on the core target proteins was performed and a Compounds-Targets-Pathways-Disease network was constructed. Through proliferation, cloning, wound healing, and migration experiments, the effects of PTFC on the viability of HepG2 liver cancer cells were analyzed. Using fluorescence probe staining the impacts of PTFC on the mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis of HepG2 were observed. Finally, the validation of the regulatory effect of PTFC on the key predicted target PRKCA were carried out through RT-qPCR.
RESULTS
Based on network pharmacology, a total of 217 potential target proteins for PTFC were screened, with 59 intersecting target proteins related to diseases, including ALB, ESR1, PRKCA, and others. GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the PTFC target proteins were involved in 193 biological processes and 13 cancer-related signaling pathways. Experimental results demonstrated that PTFC could impact the proliferation, cloning, wound healing, and migration abilities of liver cancer cells, leading to a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential and promoting cell apoptosis. The results of RT-qPCR confirmed a significant downregulation of PRKCA expression by PTFC, validating the predictions made by network pharmacology analysis.
CONCLUSION
This study has revealed the potential molecular mechanism of PTFC treating hepatocellular carcinoma via the PRKCA target, laying the foundation for clinical application of PTFC.

Objective:To observe the therapeutic effect of quercetin (QUE) on triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM-1) activated macrophage inflammation and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice, and explore its possible mechanism.Methods:In vitro cell experiment: The primary peritoneal macrophages of mice were collected by intraperitoneal injection of 3% calcium mercaptan acetate. The collected cells were divided into blank control group, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) vehicle group, TREM-1 agonist group (10 μg/ml), QUE group (10 μmol/L) and TREM-1 agonist + QUE group (cells were pretreated with 10 μmol/L QUE for 30 min before adding agonist). Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6 in the culture supernatant of primary macrophages; To observe the effect of QUE on LPS-induced TREM-1 protein levels, macrophages were divided into: normal control group, LPS group (100 ng/ml) and LPS+ QUE treatment group [macrophages were pretreated with 10 μmol/L QUE for 2 hours, and then incubated with LPS (100 ng/ml) for 16 hours]. Western blot was used to detect the expression of TREM-1 protein. In animal experiments: 80 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (20 in each group): normal control group, ALI model group, QUE group and QUE treatment group (LPS+ QUE). In the ALI model group, the ALI model was established by intratracheal injection of 5 mg/kg LPS; The mouse ALI model was established by intratracheal injection of LPS 5 mg/kg in the QUE treatment group, and then intraperitoneal injection of 15 mg/kg QUE. The control group was given the same amount of normal saline intratracheal followed by intraperitoneal injection of DMSO, and the QUE group was given the same amount of normal saline intratracheal followed by intraperitoneal injection of 15 mg/kg QUE. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissue in each group; Inflammatory cells including IL-1β, TNF- α and IL-6 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BLAF) of mice in each group were counted ; The expression of TREM-1 mRNA and protein in lung tissue of mice in each group was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Results:In vitro cell experiment: the secretion of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in the supernatant of primary macrophages in TREM-1 agonist group was higher than those in DMSO vehicle group, while the secretion of IL-1β, TNF-αand IL-6 in the supernatant of primary macrophages in TREM-1 agonist + QUE group were lower than that of TREM-1 agonist group (all P<0.001). The expression of TREM-1 protein in LPS group was higher than that in control group ( P<0.05), while the expression of TREM-1 protein in LPS + QUE group was lower than that in LPS group ( P<0.05). Animal experiments showed that compared with the control group, the ALI model group had higher lung pathological injury score, more total cells, macrophages and neutrophils in BALF and increased TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β content (all P<0.001). The above indexes in QUE group were lower than those in ALI model group (all P<0.001). The results of qRT-PCR and Western blot showed that compared with the control group, the expression of TREM-1 mRNA and protein in the lung tissue of ALI model group was increased, while the expression of TREM-1 mRNA and protein in the lung tissue of QUE group was lower than that of ALI model group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Quercetin can inhibit TREM-1 activation, reduce macrophage inflammatory response and LPS induced acute lung injury in mice.

Traumatic rib fractures are the most common injury in thoracic trauma. Previously,the patients with traumatic rib fractures were mostly treated non-surgically,of which 50%,especially those combined with flail chest presented chronic pain or chest wall deformities and over 30% had long-term disabilities,being unable to retain a full-time job. In the past two decades,thanks to the development of internal fixation material technology,the surgical treatment of rib fractures has achieved good outcomes. However,there are still some problems in clinical treatment,including inconsistency in surgical treatment and quality control in medical services. The current consensuses on the management of regional traumatic rib fractures published at home and abroad mainly focus on the guidance of the overall treatment decisions and plans,and relevant clinical guidelines abroad lacks progress in surgical treatment of rib fractures in recent years. Therefore,the Chinese Society of Traumatology affiliated to Chinese Medical Association and Chinese College of Trauma Surgeons affiliated to Chinese Medical Doctor Association,in conjunction with national multidisciplinary experts,formulate the Chinese Consensus for Surgical Treatment of Traumatic Rib Fractures(2021)following the principle of evidence-based medicine,scientific nature and practicality. This expert consensus puts forward some clear,applicable,and graded recommendations from aspects of preoperative imaging evaluation,surgical indications,timing of surgery,surgical methods,rib fracture sites for surgical fixation,internal fixation methods and material selections,treatment of combined injuries in rib fractures,in order to provide references for surgical treatment of traumatic rib fractures.
