Loss of ALDH2 aggravates mitochondrial biogenesis disorder in cardiac myocytes induced by TAC

Guang Xia et al.

Summary: Heart failure is a fatal disease and mitochondrial biogenesis plays a crucial role in its progression. The role of ALDH2 in mitochondrial biogenesis of cardiomyocytes is unclear. The study found that the loss of ALDH2 worsens mitochondrial biogenesis disorder in cardiac myocytes, while Alda-1 promotes mitochondrial biogenesis in stretched cardiomyocytes through the Sirt1/PGC-1a pathway.

Metabolomic profiling and alleviation of oxidative stress of Huangjing Zanyu capsule treating oligoasthenospermia

Boyi Li et al.

Summary: The Huangjing Zanyu capsule exerts comprehensive effects on the treatment of oligoasthenospermia by modulating various metabolic pathways, including regulating the activity of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, attenuating lipid oxidation, and influencing multiple amino acid metabolisms. Non-targeted metabolomics is an effective method for studying the complex mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions.

Combined 1H NMR fecal metabolomics and 16S rRNA gene sequencing to reveal the protective effects of Gushudan on kidney-yang-deficiency-syndrome rats via gut-kidney axis

Lin Tong et al.

Summary: This study investigated the gut microbiota and metabolic changes in kidney-yang-deficiency-syndrome (KYDS) rats and explored the protective mechanism of Gushudan (GSD) through the gut-kidney axis. The results showed that GSD could regulate the levels of metabolites and the abundance of microbial biomarkers related to KYDS. The study provided new insights into the pathogenesis of KYDS and also supported the efficacy evaluation of GSD.
