Typical and atypical metabolic characteristics of three iridaceae isoflavone components: in vitro and in silico studies by Jifeng Gu, Jifeng Gu, Huishan Zhang, Mei Wang, Yuyang Zhou, Yuyang Zhou, Zhipeng Deng, Rong Shi

“…Furthermore, molecular simulations showed that tectorigenin and irigenin bind to the orthosteric site of CYP isoforms via hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking, whereas irisflorentin is principally bound to CYP1A2 via π-π stacking and hydrophobic interactions.ConclusionCollectively, these Iridaceae isoflavone aglycones can be metabolized by CYP enzymes with typical or atypical kinetic characteristics. …”

Altered functional network topology properties to detect anxiety and depression caused by Crohn’s disease and disease severity by Jiaxing Yang, Kechen Yue, Jingwen Sun, Changjie Pan, Xintong Wu, Yongjun Cheng, Xiaomeng Wu, Haifeng Shi

“…Objective: Here we investigated changes in topological properties of functional brain networks among individuals with Crohn’s disease (CD) and to determine whether these changes are related to CD severity, as well as CD-associated anxiety and depression, which are regulated by the brain–gut axis mechanism. Methods: In total, 31 individuals with CD, 21 with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and 20 healthy controls underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging. …”

Verbascoside Inhibits the Activation of NLRP3 Inflammasome and Improves BV-2 Cell Inflammatory Damage by Wenjing HUANG, Fang CHENG, Min DU, Jiayi CHEN, Wei XIANG, Ke SHI, Xingliang XIE, Yanmei SHENG

“…The Western blot results indicated that, after treatment with verbascoside, there was a significant decrease in the levels of cell pyroptosis proteins associated with the NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β signaling pathway (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion: VB can ameliorate OGD-induced inflammatory damage in BV-2 cells, which may constitute the primary pharmacodynamic basis for the anti-inflammatory effects of OEE. …”
