Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in world. However, current biomarkers that discriminate HCC from liver cirrhosis (LC) are important but limited. More reliable for diagnosis therefore needed. Serum patients, LC patients and healthy volunteers were analyzed using NMR LC/MS-based approach conjunction with random forest (RF) analysis to their serum metabolic profiles. Thirty-two potential have been identified, feasibility these was evaluated, where 100%...

Abstract Identifying the molecular targets for beneficial effects of active small-molecule compounds simultaneously is an important and currently unmet challenge. In this study, we firstly proposed network analysis by integrating data from pharmacology metabolomics to identify components in sini decoction (SND) against heart failure. To begin with, 48 potential SND failure were predicted serum pharmacochemistry, text mining similarity match. Then, employed including docking these components....

Cell membrane chromatography (CMC) is an ideal method for screening potential active components acting on target cell membranes from a complex system, such as herbal medicines. But due to the decay and falling-off of membranes, CMC column suffers short life span low reproducibility. This has greatly limited application this model, especially when materials are hard obtain. To solve problem, novel type (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES)-decorated silica gel was employed. The decorated...

Cell membrane affinity chromatography has been widely applied in protein (MP)-targeted drug screening and interaction analysis. However, current methods, the MP sources are derived from cell lines or recombinant expression, which time-consuming for culture purification, also difficult to ensure purity consistent orientation of MPs chromatographic stationary phase. In this study, a novel situ synthesis (iSMAC) method was developed utilizing cell-free expression (CFE) covalent immobilized...

Background Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most potent antitumor agents available; however, its clinical use limited because risk severe cardiotoxicity. Though numerous studies have ascribed DOX cardiomyopathy to specific cellular pathways, precise mechanism remains obscure. Sini decoction (SND) a well-known formula Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and considered as efficient against DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. However, action mechanisms are not well known due complex components....
