Dual Role of α-MSH in Colitis Progression: Mediating Neutrophil Differentiation via Bone Marrow by Liao X, Liu H, Li Y, Zhang W, Dai Q, Wei H, Zhou J, Xie X, Zhou H

“…Additionally, we used flow cytometry, adeno-associated virus-mediated gene silence, parabiosis and single-cell RNA sequencing to uncover the specific roles and mechanisms of the HPA in colitis.Results: Our results indicate that colitis activates HPA secretion and increases α-MSH. α-MSH acts on the MC5R present on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow, altering the bone marrow microenvironment and promoting HSCs proliferation and differentiation into neutrophils. …”

Mechanism of <italic>Coptis chinensis</italic> in Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Based on Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking by LIU Huiling, TAN Dingying, HUANG Min, CHEN Pingping, ZHANG Wang

“…In terms of cell components (CC), it involved the composition of enzyme regulated complex, cystic cavity, membrane microregion and membrane region. ③ Components-target-pathway network analysis showed that, the main potential active ingredients of <italic>Coptis chinensis</italic> in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus were quercetin, berberine, etc. It can act on mitogen-activated proteinase 1 (MAPK1), serine/threonine protein kinase (AKT1), tumor protein p53 (TP53), transcription factor AP-1 (JUN), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), which can regulate MAPK, AGEs-RAGE, PI3K-Akt, Toll-like receptors, HIF-1, TNF signaling pathways, etc. ④ The molecular docking results showed that, the molecular docking affinity between the active ingredients of <italic>Coptis chinensis</italic> and the above core targets was less than -7.0 kcal/mol (1 kca/mol=4.186 kJ/mol), and the binding activity was better.Conclusion<italic>Coptis chinensis</italic> may play an important role in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its complications by regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammatory response, cell proliferation and apoptosis and promoting oxidative stress, etc.…”
