Strictinin, a Major Ingredient in Yunnan Kucha Tea Possessing Inhibitory Activity on the Infection of Mouse Hepatitis Virus to Mouse L Cells

Erh-Chuang Tu et al.

Summary: Theacrine and strictinin from Yunnan Kucha tea were found to be the major ingredients responsible for the anti-influenza activity. Strictinin was able to completely eliminate mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) infection, while theacrine had no such effect. In addition, strictinin and remdesivir showed potential for inhibiting MHV infection through multiple mechanisms.

Altered Gut Microbiota in Children With Hyperuricemia

Xin Yuan et al.

Summary: The composition of gut microbiota in children with hyperuricemia differs from controls, and this difference may be associated with the level of hyperuricemia. The correlation between serum uric acid levels and certain bacteria may account for this difference. In addition, the metabolic pathways in children with hyperuricemia also differ from controls.

3-MCPD and glycidol coexposure induces systemic toxicity and synergistic nephrotoxicity via NLRP3 inflammasome activation, necroptosis, and autophagic cell death

Pei-Wen Liu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the coexposure of 3-MCPD and glycidol for 28 days synergistically induced toxicity in various organs in mice, with the kidney being the most sensitive. The coexposure activated the NLRP3 inflammasome and induced necroptosis and autophagic cell death, leading to inflammation and cytotoxicity. Next-generation sequencing revealed changes in genes associated with nephrotoxicity and inflammation, consistent with the findings from in vitro and in vivo models.

Hyperuricemia and the Risk of Heart Failure: Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Implications

Ke Si et al.

Summary: This review discusses the pathophysiological mechanisms of hyperuricemia with heart failure (HF) and the use of xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors as a promising therapeutic choice in patients with HF. Research suggests that the core pathogenesis of HF with hyperuricemia is the up-regulated XO activity and increased production of free oxygen radicals, leading to a cluster of cardiovascular effects.

Ellagitannins from Rosa roxburghii suppress poly(I:C)-induced IL-8 production in human keratinocytes

Satoru Takayama et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that a 50% aqueous extract of Rosa roxburghii fruit (RRFE) and its ellagitannin compounds exhibit significant anti-inflammatory effects in a cell model of skin inflammation induced by UV radiation, inhibiting interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression and release. These findings suggest that RRFE and its compounds have potential as ingredients in products designed to improve skin disorders caused by UV radiation.

Anti-Hyperuricemic and Nephroprotective Effects of Dihydroberberine in Potassium Oxonate- and Hypoxanthine-Induced Hyperuricemic Mice

Lieqiang Xu et al.

Summary: Phellodendri Chinese Cortex has been traditionally used for treating hyperuricemia and gout. Berberine (BBR), its active component, has been proven effective in reducing gout inflammation. Dihydroberberine (DHB), a derivative of BBR, showed significant hypouricemic and renoprotective effects in hyperuricemic mice, possibly by inhibiting XOD, URAT1, GLUT9, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in the kidney.

Characteristic dysbiosis in gout and the impact of a uric acid-lowering treatment, febuxostat on the gut microbiota

Suxian Lin et al.

Summary: Gut dysbiosis is suggested to have a critical role in the pathogenesis of gout. The gut microbiota in untreated gout patients showed reduced biodiversity, partially restored by febuxostat treatment. The gut microbiome in gout patients was found to have enriched carbohydrate metabolism but lower purine metabolism compared to febuxostat-treated patients.
