< em > Pseudomonas hefeiensis < /em > sp. nov., isolated from the rhizosphere of multiple cash crops in China
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol. 2024 Mar;74(3). doi: 10.1099/ijsem.0.006303.ABSTRACTThree bacterial strains, FP250T, FP821, and FP53, were isolated from the rhizosphere soil of oilseed rape, licorice, and habanero pepper in Anhui Province, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and Jiangsu Province, PR China, respectively. All strains were shown to grow at 4-37 °C and pH 6.0-9.0, and in the presence of 0-4.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences or housekeeping genes (16S rRNA, gyrB, rpoB, and rpoD) and phylogenomic analysis showed that strains FP250T, FP821, and FP53 belong to the genus Pseudomonas, ...

Anti-rheumatoid arthritis potential of Halodule pinifolia: development, characterization and in vivo evaluation of H. pinifolia-based oral suspension and lipid nano-emulsion
In this study, the anti-rheumatoid arthritis effect of an unexplored marine grassHalodule pinifolia (HP), and a combination of it withGlycyrrhiza glabra (liquorice; LQ), prepared as a conventional suspension (C1) and a lipid nano-emulsion (C1-N) was evaluated in Freund ’s complete adjuvant (FCA)- and collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) models. Formulations C1 and C1-N contained standardized extract HP (100 mg/kg) as major active ingredient and liquorice LQ (50 mg/kg) as both active ingredient (anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcer) and sweetening agent. Oral administr ation of HP and C1 to FCA-induced Sprague–Dawley rats sig...

Network pharmacology and gut microbiota insights: unraveling Shenling Baizhu powder's role in psoriasis treatment
Conclusion: This research has pinpointed lipid metabolism as a key pathway in the treatment of psoriasis with SLBZP. It explores how SLBZP's modulation of gut microbiota and lipid metabolism can alleviate psoriasis, suggesting that balancing gut microbiota may reduce inflammation mediators and offer therapeutic benefits. This underscores lipid metabolism modulation as a potential new strategy in psoriasis treatment.PMID:38425649 | PMC:PMC10904012 | DOI:10.3389/fphar.2024.1362161 (Source: Atherosclerosis)
