Synthesis and secretion of bile acids (BA) is a key physiological function of the liver. In pathological conditions like portosystemic shunt, hepatic insufficiency, hepatitis, or cirrhosis BA metabolism and secretion are disturbed. Quantification of total serum BA is an established diagnostic method to assess the general liver function and allows early detection of abnormalities, liver disease progression and guidance of treatment decisions. To date, data on comparative BA profiles in dogs are limited. However, BA profiles might be even better diagnostic parameters than total BA concentrations. On this background, the present study analyzed and compared individual BA profiles in serum, plasma, urine, and feces of 10 healthy pups and 40 adult healthy dogs using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Sample preparation was performed by solid-phase extraction for serum, plasma, and urine samples or by protein precipitation with methanol for the feces samples. For each dog, 22 different BA, including unconjugated BA and their glycine and taurine conjugates, were analyzed. In general, there was a great interindividual variation for the concentrations of single BA, mostly exemplified by the fact that cholic acid (CA) was by far the most prominent BA in blood and urine samples of some of the dogs (adults and pups), while in others, CA was under the detection limit. There were no significant age-related differences in the BA profiles, but pups showed generally lower absolute BA concentrations in serum, plasma, and urine. Taurine-conjugated BA were predominant in the serum and plasma of both pups (68%) and adults (74-75%), while unconjugated BA were predominant in the urine and feces of pups (64 and 95%, respectively) and adults (68 and 99%, respectively). The primary BA chenodeoxycholic acid and taurocholic acid and the secondary BA deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid were the most robust analytes for potential diagnostic purpose. In conclusion, this study reports simultaneous BA profiling in dog serum, plasma, urine, and feces and provides valuable diagnostic data for subsequent clinical studies in dogs with different kinds of liver diseases.

BACKGROUND
Diabetes mellitus is associated with carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism abnormalities. Uncontrolled hyperglycaemia can result in dysfunction of various organs such as eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart and blood vessels leading to long-term complications like nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, stroke and ischaemia. The main objective of the study was to identify critical factors in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (Type 2 DM) with metabolic syndrome (mets) compared with Type 2 DM without mets and their association in the development of Type 2 DM to Type 2 DM with mets and cardiovascular complications. This can aid in improving the clinical management and the consequences of the disease.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The present study was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry, a tertiary care centre in Northern India. All patients who were aged between 35 and 65 years of age were enrolled. Enrolled subjects were divided into three groups, Group I: 50 healthy people; Group II: 50 Type 2 DM without mets; and Group III: 50 Type 2 DM with mets. These patients were subjected to Anthropometric and biochemical parameter assessment.
RESULTS
On comparing Group III with control and Group II significant difference was observed in these parameters, that is, elevated TGs ( = 0.001), reduced high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level ( = 0.001), elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) (0.011), high serum insulin fasting ( = 0.010), weight ( = 0.021), waist circumference ( = 0.001) and BMI ( = 0.001). In the control group, head circumference was significantly lower compared to Group II ( = 0.001) and Group III ( = 0.001).
CONCLUSION
On the basis of observed observation, it has been suggested that low enzymatic activity with poor glycaemic control may further progress Type 2 DM into Type 2 DM with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular complications. High hs-CRP concentration and high fasting insulin can be independent predictor of cardiovascular complications.

Network analysis combined with experimental assessment to explore the therapeutic mechanisms of New Shenqi Pills formula targeting mitochondria on senile diabetes mellitus.
BACKGROUND
The escalation of global population aging has accentuated the prominence of senile diabetes mellitus (SDM) as a consequential public health concern. Oxidative stress and chronic inflammatory cascades prevalent in individuals with senile diabetes significantly amplify disease progression and complication rates. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) emerges as a pivotal player in enhancing blood sugar homeostasis and retarding complication onset in the clinical management of senile diabetes. Nonetheless, an evident research gap persists regarding the integration of TCM's renal tonification pharmacological mechanisms with experimental validation within the realm of senile diabetes therapeutics.
AIMS
The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of action of New Shenqi Pills (SQP) in the treatment of SDM and make an experimental assessment.
METHODS
Network analysis is used to evaluate target pathways related to SQP and SDM. Mitochondrial-related genes were obtained from the MitoCarta3.0 database and intersected with the common target genes of the disease and drugs, then constructing a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network making use of the GeneMANIA database. Representative compounds in the SQP were quantitatively measured using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) to ensure quality control and quantitative analysis of the compounds. A type 2 diabetes mice (C57BL/6) model was used to investigate the pharmacodynamics of SQP. The glucose lowering efficacy of SQP was assessed through various metrics including body weight and fasting blood glucose (FBG). To elucidate the modulatory effects of SQP on pancreatic beta cell function, we measured oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), insulin histochemical staining and tunel apoptosis detection, then assessed the insulin-mediated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase A (Akt)/glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) pathway in diabetic mice via Western blotting. Additionally, we observe the structural changes of the nucleus, cytoplasmic granules and mitochondria of pancreatic islet β cells.
RESULTS
In this investigation, we identified a total of 1876 genes associated with senile diabetes, 278 targets of SQP, and 166 overlapping target genes, primarily enriched in pathways pertinent to oxidative stress response, peptide response, and oxygen level modulation. Moreover, an intersection analysis involving 1,136 human mitochondrial genes and comorbidity targets yielded 15 mitochondria-related therapeutic targets. Quality control assessments and quantitative analyses of SQP revealed the predominant presence of five compounds with elevated concentrations: Catalpol, Cinnamon Aldehyde, Rehmanthin D, Trigonelline, and Paeonol Phenol. Vivo experiments demonstrated notable findings. Relative to the control group, mice in the model group exhibited significant increases in body weight and fasting blood glucose levels, alongside decreased insulin secretion and heightened islet cell apoptosis. Moreover, β-cells nuclear condensation and mitochondrial cristae disappearance were observed, accompanied by reduced expression levels of p-GSK-3β protein in islet cells ( < 0.05 or < 0.01). Conversely, treatment groups administered SQP and Rg displayed augmented expressions of the aforementioned protein markers ( < 0.05 or < 0.01), alongside preserved mitochondrial cristae structure in islet β cells.
CONCLUSION
Our findings suggest that SQP can ameliorate diabetes by reducing islet cell apoptosis and resist oxidative stress. These insulin-mediated PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β pathway plays an important regulatory role in this process.

Review
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a key driver of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in metabolic syndrome and diabetes. This dysfunction promotes the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which cause oxidative stress and inflammation. Angiotensin II, the main mediator of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, also contributes to CVD by promoting ROS production. Reduced activity of sirtuins (SIRTs), a family of proteins that regulate cellular metabolism, also worsens oxidative stress. Reduction of energy production by mitochondria is a common feature of all metabolic disorders. High SIRT levels and 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase signaling stimulate hypoxia-inducible factor 1 beta, which promotes ketosis. Ketosis, in turn, increases autophagy and mitophagy, processes that clear cells of debris and protect against damage. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), a class of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes, have a beneficial effect on these mechanisms. Randomized clinical trials have shown that SGLT2i improves cardiac function and reduces the rate of cardiovascular and renal events. SGLT2i also increase mitochondrial efficiency, reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, and strengthen tissues. These findings suggest that SGLT2i hold great potential for the treatment of CVD. Furthermore, they are proposed as anti-aging drugs; however, rigorous research is needed to validate these preliminary findings.

OBJECTIVE
Female fertility gradually decreases with the increase in women's age. The underlying reasons include the decline in the quantity and quality of oocytes. Oocyte aging is an important manifestation of the decline in oocyte quality, including oocyte aging before ovulation and oocyte aging after ovulation. Currently, few studies have been done to examine oocyte aging, and the relevant molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Therefore, we used zebrafish as a model to investigate oocyte aging. Three different age ranges of female zebrafish were selected to mate with male zebrafish of the best breeding age. In this way, we studied the effects of maternal age-related oocyte aging on fertility and investigated the potential molecular mechanisms behind maternal age-related fertility decline.
METHODS
Eight female zebrafish aged between 158 and 195 d were randomly selected for the 6-month age group (180±12) d, 8 female zebrafish aged between 330 and 395 d were randomly selected for the 12-month age group (360±22) d, and 8 female zebrafish aged between 502 and 583 d were randomly selected for the 18-month age group (540±26) d. Male zebrafish of (180±29) d were randomly selected from zebrafish aged between 158 and 195 d and mated with female zebrafish in each group. Each mating experiment included 1 female zebrafish and 1 male zebrafish. Zebrafish embryos produced by the mating experiments were collected and counted. The embryos at 4 hours post-fertilization were observed under the microscope, the total number of embryos and the number of unfertilized embryos were counted, and the fertilization rate was calculated accordingly. The numbers of malformed embryos and dead embryos were counted 24 hours after fertilization, and the rates of embryo malformation and mortality were calculated accordingly. The primary outcome measure was the embryo fertilization rate, and the secondary outcome measures were the number of embryos per spawn (the total number of embryos laid within 1.5 hours after the beginning of mating and reproduction of the zebrafish), embryo mortality, and embryo malformation rate. The outcome measures of each group were compared. The blastocyst embryos of female zebrafish from each group born after mating with male zebrafish in their best breeding period were collected for transcriptomics analysis. Fresh oocytes of female zebrafish in each group were collected for transcriptomics analysis to explore the potential molecular mechanisms of maternal age-related fertility decline.
RESULTS
Compared with that of the 6-month group (94.9%±3.6%), the embryo fertilization rate of the 12-month group (92.3%±4.2%) showed no significant difference, but that of the 18-month group (86.8%±5.5%) decreased significantly (<0.01). In addition, the fertilization rate in the 18-month group was significantly lower than that in the 12-month group (<0.05). Compared with that of the 6-month group, the embryo mortality of the female zebrafish in the 12-month group and that in the 18-month group were significantly higher than that in the 6-month group (<0.000 1, <0.001). There was no significant difference in the number of embryos per spawn or in the embryo malformation rate among the three groups. The results of the transcriptomics analysis of blastocyst embryos showed that some genes, including , , , , a, , , , etc, were differentially expressed in the 12-month group or the 18-month group compared with their expression levels in the 6-month group. According to the KEGG enrichment analysis, these differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly enriched in the MAPK signaling pathway, the phosphatidylinositol signaling system, and the fatty acid degradation and histidine metabolism pathway (<0.05). The analysis of the expression trends of the genes expressed differentially among the three groups (the 6-month group, the 12-month group, and the 18-month group in turn) showed that the gene expression trends of , , , and , which were involved in Fanconi anemia pathway, were statistically significant (<0.05). In the results of oocyte transcriptomics analysis, the genes that were differentially expressed in the 12-month group or the 18-month group compared with the 6-month group were mainly enriched in cell adhesion molecules and the protein digestion and absorption pathway (<0.05). The results of the trends of gene expression in the zebrafish oocytes of the three groups (the 6-month group, the 12-month group, and the 18-month group in turn) showed that three kinds of gene expression trends of declining fertility with growing maternal age had significant differences (<0.05). Further analysis of the three significantly differential expression trends showed 51 DEGs related to mitochondria and 5 DEGs related to telomere maintenance and DNA repair, including , , , , etc.
CONCLUSION
With the increase in the maternal age of the zebrafish, the embryo fertilization rate decreased significantly and the embryo mortality increased significantly. In addition, with the increase in the maternal age of the zebrafish, the expression of mitochondria and telomere-related genes, such as , , , and , in female zebrafish oocytes decreased gradually. Maternal age may be a factor contributing to the decrease in oocyte fertilization ability and the increase in early embryo mortality. Maternal age-related oocyte aging affects the fertility and embryo development of the offspring.

OBJECTIVE
Based on the secreted frizzled-related protein 2 (SFRP2)-Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, this study explored the effect and mechanism of Cuiru Keli (CRKL) in the treatment of postpartum hypogalactia.
METHODS
A rat model of postpartum hypogalactia was established by gavaging 2 mL of 1.6 mg/mL bromocriptine mesylate to female rats on the third day after delivery. Female rats with a delivery time difference of less than 48 hours were selected and randomly assigned to 7 groups, including a normal group (without any modeling or medication), a model group, a CRKL low-dose group of model group model rats receiving CRKL at the dose of 3 g/kg, a CRKL medium-dose group of model rats receiving CRKL at the dose of 6 g/kg, a CRKL high-dose group of model rats receiving CRKL at the dose of 9 g/kg, a positive drug group of model rats receiving domperidone at the dose of 3 mg/kg, and a negative control (NC) group of model rats receiving normal saline. Each group contained 6 rats. Except for the normal and model groups, the remaining 5 groups were continuously administered with the respective intervention drugs at the specified doses by gavage once a day for 10 days. Changes in the total litter mass of the offspring in the 7 groups within 10 days were measured, and HE staining was performed to identify pathological changes in the mammary tissue (MT). Six groups of rats (excluding the positive control group) were used to observe the pathological changes of eosinophils in pituitary tissue. ELISA was performed to determine the content of prolactin (PRL) in serum, immunohistochemical staining was used to determine the expression of prolactin receptor (PRLR) in MT, and RT-qPCR was used to determine the mRNA expression of genes related to lactation in MT. Network pharmacology and molecular docking were used to study the therapeutic effect and mechanism of CRKL on postpartum hypogalactia, particularly whether it acted through the SFRP2-Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. The mechanism of CRKL treatment was further validated by detecting mRNA (RT-qPCR) and protein expression (Western blot) of related pathway genes. Cell experiments were conducted using primary culture rat mammary epithelial cells (RMEC) from rat MT. RMEC were divided into four groups, including a normal group (primary culture RMEC, untreated), overexpression group (primary cultured RMEC treated with overexpression vector), overexpression+CRKL group (receiving treatment for overexpression group plus 10% drug-containing serum), and negative control group (primary culture RMEC treated with empty vector). The effect of CRKL on the expression of lactation-related genes , , and mRNA after overexpression was detected by RT-qPCR.
RESULTS
In this study, CRKL was administered at a dose of 3 g/kg in the CRKL low-dose group, 6 g/kg in the medium-dose group, and 9 g/kg in the high-dose group (<0.05 or <0.01). Compared with the model group, CRKL at all doses significantly increased the total litter weight gain of the offsprings within 10 days (<0.05 or <0.01), and effectively increased lactation (<0.01), the area of mammary lobules, and the size and filling of acinar cavities. CRKL at all doses also increased the number of eosinophils that secreted PRL in the pituitary gland of the postpartum hypogalactia rat model, and increased the content of PRL in the serum (<0.05 or <0.01). CRKL promoted the secretion and expression of PRL in postpartum hypogalactic model rats. In addition, it significantly promoted the expression of genes related to milk fat, milk protein, and lactose synthesis in MT (<0.05 or <0.01). Network pharmacology predicted that the Wnt signaling pathway might be a key pathway for CRKL in treating postpartum hypogalactia. The molecular docking results showed that related chemical components in CRKL had good binding ability with CCND1 and SFRP2. Compared with the model group, CRKL at all doses inhibited the expression of gene (<0.01) and activated the mRNA and protein expression of CCND1 and c-Myc in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in MT (<0.05 or <0.01). Cell experiments showed that, compared to the normal group, overexpression reduced the mRNA expression of milk synthesis-related genes , , and in RMEC (<0.01). The CCK8 results indicated that 10% of the drug-containing serum was the effective concentration administered to cells (<0.01). After administering drug-containing serum, the expression of the lactation-related genes , , and were up-regulated (compared with the overexpression group, <0.01).
CONCLUSION
CRKL alleviates postpartum hypogalactia through the SFRP2-Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. SFRP2 might be a potential new target for the diagnosis and treatment of postpartum hypogalactia. This reveals a new mechanism of CRKL in treating postpartum hypogalactia and promotes its clinical application.

BACKGROUND AND AIM
Gut microbiota influences energy homeostasis in part through circulating hormones. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein (IGFBP)-2 is a biomarker whose increase in systemic circulation is associated with positive effects on body weight and metabolism. In a recent clinical trial, probiotic HA-114 supplementation showed positive effects on eating behaviors and insulin resistance in overweight participants undergoing a weight-loss intervention. In this context, this ancillary study aimed at assessing the impact of HA-114 supplementation on plasma IGFBP-2 levels in these individuals, and whether this modulation correlated with changes in fat mass, energy metabolism, and eating behaviors.
METHODS
Fasting plasma IGFBP-2 concentrations were quantified in 100 overweight or obese men and women enrolled in a 12-week diet-based weight reduction program (-500 kcal/day), in combination with probiotic or placebo supplementation. Baseline and changes in circulating IGFBP-2 concentrations were correlated with anthropometric parameter, glucose and lipid metabolism, cardiorespiratory function and eating behaviors.
RESULTS
On average, the intervention reduced BMI by 4.6 % and increased IGFBP-2 by 13 %, regardless of supplementation group. Individuals who presented an increase in IGFBP-2 levels had significantly greater reductions in BMI. Changes in IGFBP-2 levels were correlated with loss in fat mass (r = 0.2, p < 0.001) in the probiotic-supplemented group, but not with other metabolic parameters or eating behaviors. Baseline IGFBP-2 levels were not associated with weight loss or improvements in cardiometabolic parameters.
CONCLUSION
Probiotic supplementation with did not modulate plasma IGFBP-2 levels. Changes in IGFBP-2 levels were correlated with greater reductions in BMI, but not with other metabolic parameters or eating behaviors, indicating that the benefits of HA-114 on eating behaviors are likely independent of IGFBP-2. Additional changes in microbiota might be required to modulate IGFBP-2 and observe its associations with eating behaviors and cardiometabolic improvements.

Review
Members of the multiple antibiotic resistance regulator (MarR) protein family are ubiquitous in bacteria and play critical roles in regulating cellular metabolism and antibiotic resistance. MarR family proteins function as repressors, and their interactions with modulators induce the expression of controlled genes. The previously characterized modulators are insufficient to explain the activities of certain MarR family proteins. However, recently, several MarR family proteins have been reported to sense sulfane sulfur, including zero-valent sulfur, persulfide (R-SSH), and polysulfide (R-SnH, ≥ 2). Sulfane sulfur is a common cellular component in bacteria whose levels vary during bacterial growth. The changing levels of sulfane sulfur affect the expression of many MarR-controlled genes. Sulfane sulfur reacts with the cysteine thiols of MarR family proteins, causing the formation of protein thiol persulfide, disulfide bonds, and other modifications. Several MarR family proteins that respond to reactive oxygen species (ROS) also sense sulfane sulfur, as both sulfane sulfur and ROS induce the formation of disulfide bonds. This review focused on MarR family proteins that sense sulfane sulfur. However, the sensing mechanisms reviewed here may also apply to other proteins that detect sulfane sulfur, which is emerging as a modulator of gene regulation.

Cancer leads to nearly 10 million deaths worldwide per year. The tumour microenvironment (TME) is fundamental for tumour growth and progression. A key component of the TME, the extracellular matrix (ECM) has recently become a focus of interest in cancer research. Dysregulation of ECM synthesis and proteolysis leads to uncontrolled tumour growth and metastasis. Matrix remodelling enzymes, secreted by cancer cells and stromal cells, modify the overall structure and organisation of ECM proteins, therefore influencing biochemical interactions, tissue integrity and tissue turnover. While A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinases (ADAMs)' and matrix metalloproteinases' role in cancer has been deeply investigated, other proteolytic enzymes, like ADAMs with thrombospondin(-like) motifs (ADAMTSs) have been gaining interest due to their roles in modulating cancer cell-ECM interactions and oncogenic signalling pathways. In this review, we will discuss the dysregulation of ADAMTSs in cancer and their roles in regulating cancer development and progression, via ECM remodelling and cell signalling modulation.

Currently, there are occasional reports of health problems caused by sleep deprivation (SD). However, to date, there remains a lack of in-depth research regarding the effects of SD on the growth and development of oocytes in females. The present work aimed to investigate whether SD influences ovarian folliculogenesis in adolescent female mice. Using a dedicated device, SD conditions were established in 3-week old female mice (a critical stage of follicular development) for 6 weeks and gut microbiota and systemic metabolomics were analyzed. Analyses were related to parameters of folliculogenesis and reproductive performance of SD females. We found that the gut microbiota and systemic metabolomics were severely altered in SD females and that these were associated with parameters of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). These included increased granulosa cell apoptosis, reduced numbers of primordial follicles (PmFs), correlation with decreased AMH, E2, and increased LH in blood serum, and a parallel increased number of growing follicles and changes in protein expression compatible with PmF activation. SD also reduced oocyte maturation and reproductive performance. Notably, fecal microbial transplantation from SD females into normal females induced POI parameters in the latter while niacinamide (NAM) supplementation alleviated such symptoms in SD females. Gut microbiota and alterations in systemic metabolomics caused by SD induced POI features in juvenile females that could be counteracted with NAM supplementation.
