ObjectiveTo employ the effective components and antiarrhythmic mechanism of Wenxin Granules (WXKL) by cell membrane chromatography (CMC) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS), combined with network pharmacology. MethodIn this study, the CMC/UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique was employed to identify the components in WXKL that could specifically bind to myocardial cell membranes. By utilizing databases such as SwissTarget Prediction and GeneCards, the targets of WXKL's effective components and arrhythmia-related targets were mined. Cytoscape software was used to construct a "component-target-disease" network. Gene ontology(GO) function and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were carried out, and molecular docking of key components and targets was performed. Finally, further verification was conducted through in vivo experiment of rats. ResultA total of 39 effective components were identified in WXKL. These included 13 components derived from Panax notoginseng, 15 components from Codonopsis pilosula, seven components from Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, one component from Succinum, one component from Polygonatum odoratum, one component shared by both P. odoratum and C. pilosula, and one component shared by both Panax notoginseng and C. pilosula. Network pharmacology predicted that WXKL had 16 core antiarrhythmic targets and 79 related pathways, mainly involving adrenergic signaling in cardiomyocytes, cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)/protein kinase G (PKG), calcium signal, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), interleukin (IL)-17, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathways. The results of in vivo experiment of rats showed that WXKL significantly improved the expression of β1-adrenergic receptor (β1-AR), cAMP, TNF-α, and calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha 1C (CACNA1C). ConclusionWXKL can exert its antiarrhythmic effects through multiple components, multiple targets, and multiple pathways. This study provides a scientific basis for explaining the potential pharmacodynamic substance foundation and mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine in treating arrhythmia.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics and prognosis of Brucella and other pathogens infections complicated with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG associated disorders (MOGAD). Methods:The clinical data of a patient with brucellosis complicated with MOGAD diagnosed in the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in April 2022 were reported, and related case reports of infection coexisting with MOGAD were reviewed and summarized.Results:This case was a 44-year-old male, with recurrent fever and anorexia, followed by sudden weakness, numbness, pain in both lower limbs and dysuria, and then pain in the right neck. Magnetic resonance imaging showed lesions in the spine and spinal cord. Due to the positive myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid and serum, and the growth of Brucella in blood culture, he was diagnosed as brucellosis complicated with MOGAD. After anti-brucellosis and glucocorticoid therapy, his symptoms improved. The literature on infection coexisting with MOGAD was reviewed and 22 cases were included. The infection sources included COVID-19, Borrelia burgdorferi, etc. No case of Brucella infection complicated with MOGAD had been reported. The main clinical manifestations of the 22 cases included myelitis (63.6%, 14/22), optic neuritis (40.9%, 9/22), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (18.2%, 4/22), multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis (4.5%, 1/22) and meningoencephalitis (4.5%, 1/22). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 20 cases, showing spinal cord lesions in 12 cases (60.0%, 12/20), intracranial lesions in 10 cases (50.0%, 10/20) and optic nerve lesions in 6 cases (30.0%, 6/20). Cerebrospinal fluid examination was performed in 19 patients, of whom 13 (13/19) had increased cerebrospinal fluid cell count and 10 (10/18) had increased cerebrospinal fluid protein. Twenty-two patients received glucocorticoid therapy, of which 95.5% (21/22) responded well and 95.5% (21/22) had a good prognosis. Conclusions:Brucella and other pathogens infection may complicate with MOGAD, with similar clinical manifestations, and glucocorticoid therapy is effective.

Objective To observe the effects of Siweiyuganzi prescription on anti-peroxidation and blood lipid levels in experimental rats with hyperlipidemia. Methods Sixty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into normal control group, hyperlipidemia model group, Xuezhikang group, Siweiyuganzi prescription large, medium and small dose group according to the random number table method, with 10 rats in each group. The hyperlipidemia rat model was established by intragastric feeding with high fat emulsion everyday 10 mL·kg-1·d-1; normal saline 10 mL/kg was given to the normal control group, twice a day by intragastric feeding; 3 dosages of Siweiyuganzi suspended fluid 12.8, 6.4, 4.3 g·kg-1·d-1 intragastric administrations were given to Siweiyuganzi prescription large, medium and small dose groups respectively; Xuezhikang suspended fluid 0.3 g·kg-1·d-1 was given to Xuezhikang group intragastrically;the same volume of normal saline was given to hyperlipidemia model group. After 4 weeks, the level changes of blood lipid, serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), malonaldehyde (MDA), hydroxymethylglutaryl Coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) were observed. Results Compared to those in the normal control group, the levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), MDA, content and positive expression of HMG-CoA, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were all higher in hyperlipidemia model group [TG (mmol/L): 6.59±0.72 vs. 4.32±0.36, TC (mmol/L): 7.10±0.25 vs. 5.98±0.40, LDL-C (mmol/L): 4.18±1.30 vs. 2.33±0.35, MDA (μmol/L): 26.05± 5.99 vs. 10.08±1.98, HMG-CoA content (ng/L): 54.60±2.90 vs. 48.73±3.09, HMG-CoA positive expression in liver tissue:(57.80±12.30)% vs. (22.00±4.92)%, ALT (U/L): 106.83±15.75 vs. 81.97±13.18]; SOD and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly decreased [SOD (kU/L): 295.47±37.51 vs. 345.13±19.76, HDL-C (mmol/L): 2.32±0.49 vs. 4.84±0.45, both P < 0.05]. Compared with the hyperlipidemia model group, the TG, TC, LDL-C, MDA, contents and positive expression of HMG-CoA in each group were significantly reduced, and the SOD and HDL-C were obviously increased, and the changes in the Siweiyuganzi high dose group were more significant than those of the Siweiyuganzi middle-and low-dose groups [TG (mmol/L): 4.70±0.46 vs. 5.40±0.31, 5.70±0.41, TC (mmol/L): 5.80±0.23 vs. 6.14±0.20, 6.56±0.32, LDL-C (mmol/L): 2.56±0.45 vs. 2.93±0.33, 3.28±0.32, HDL-C (mmol/L): 4.58±0.28 vs. 3.89±0.30, 3.59±0.08, SOD (kU/L): 381.45±20.68 vs. 360.60±30.16, 325.49±32.13, MDA (μmol/L): 16.98±5.39 vs. 17.89±5.37, 21.03±6.01, HMG-CoA content (ng/L): 50.58±0.77 vs. 52.16±0.66, 52.90±0.91, HMG-CoA positive expression in liver tissue: (27.90±6.03)% vs. (32.20±7.00)%, (43.00±8.39)%, all P < 0.05]. In the normal control group, there were positive cells scattered in the central vein area and loosely distributed around the portal area in the rat liver; in the hyperlipidemia model group, the positive cells were increased in the central vein area and the cells in relatively great number were seen around the portal area. While the positive cells in Xuezhikang group and in the high, medium and low dose Siweiyuganzi groups were decreased. Conclusion Siweiyuganzi prescription can regulate the levels of blood lipids, prevent and treat the lipid peroxidation caused by hyperlipidemia, and inhibit excessive expression of HMG-CoA in experimental rats with hyperlipidemia.
