Exploring the Hepatoprotective Effect of Agaricus bisporus Based on Network Pharmacology by WANG Jie, WANG Jinmei, LIU Hui, LIU Xuguang, GUO Wenjing, HE Hongping

“…The antioxidant capacity in mice was significantly enhanced, as evidenced by a significant increase in superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities (P < 0.001) and a significant decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) content (P < 0.01). Detection of the mRNA and protein expression levels of relevant genes was performed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blot techniques, showing that compared with the model group, the expression of the Bcl-2 in the high-dose group significantly increased (P < 0.001), while the expression of MYC, NF-κB1, RELA and MMP9 significantly decreased (P < 0.01). …”

Effect of ultrasonic modification on the protective activity of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide to prevent ethanol-induced injury on GES-1 cells by Jinrong Xiao, Xin Chen, Jingsi Zhang, Yifan Wang, Lei Zhong, Qiping Zhan, Qiuhui Hu, Liyan Zhao

“…With increasing ultrasound intensity, the protective effect of FVPs on GES-1 cells was significantly enhanced by more effective prevention of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and more promotion of expression of triglyceride factor 2 (TFF2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) mRNA. The ultrasonic modification might be an effective way to develop novel F. velutipes polysaccharides that could effectively resist the gastric injury caused by excessive alcohol consumption.…”

Cholecystokinin (CCK) Is a Mediator Between Nutritional Intake and Gonadal Development in Teleosts by Hangyu Li, Hongwei Liang, Xiaowen Gao, Xiangtong Zeng, Shuo Zheng, Linlin Wang, Faming Yuan, Shaohua Xu, Zhan Yin, Guangfu Hu

“…Additionally, with primary cultured ovary cells as a model, the in vitro experiment demonstrated that CCK directly induces the expression of <i>lhr</i>, <i>fshr</i>, and <i>cyp19a1a</i> mRNA. This indicates that hypothalamic CCK may act as a nutrient sensor involved in regulating gonadal development in teleosts.…”
