Positive benefit-risk ratio of Psoraleae Fructus: Comprehensive safety assessment and osteogenic effects in rats. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 326:117967. [PMID: 38431111 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.117967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Psoraleae Fructus (PF), the dried fruit of Psoralea corylifolia L., is a commonly used traditional medicine that has contributed to the treatment of orthopedic diseases for thousands of years in China. However, recent PF-related liver injury reports have drawn widespread attention regarding its potential hepatotoxicity risks. AIM OF THE STUDY This study was aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy and chronic toxicity of PF using a 26-week administration experiment on rats in order to simulate the clinical usage situation. MATERIALS AND METHODS The PF aqueous extract was consecutively administrated to rats daily at dosages of 0.7, 2.0, and 5.6 g/kg (equivalent to 1-8 times the clinical doses for humans) for as long as 26 weeks. Samples were collected after 13, 26, and 32 weeks (withdrawal for 6 weeks) since the first administration. The chronic toxicity of PF was evaluated by conventional toxicological methods, and the efficacy of PF was evaluated by osteogenic effects in the natural growth process. RESULTS In our experiments, only the H group (5.6 g/kg) for 26-week PF treatment demonstrated liver or kidney injury, which the injuries were reversible after 6 weeks of withdrawal. Notably, the PF treatment beyond 13 weeks showed significant benefits for bone growth and development in rats, with a higher benefit-risk ratio in female rats. CONCLUSIONS PF displayed a promising benefit-risk ratio in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis, a disease that lacks effective medicine so far. This is the first study to elucidate the benefit-risk balance associated with clinical dosage and long-term use of PF, thereby providing valuable insights for rational clinical use and risk control of PF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the characteristics of the occurrence of antineoplastic drug adverse reactions (ADRs) in breast cancer and to utilize a computerized tool to identify early warning indicators of potentially serious ADRs. METHODS We conducted descriptive statistical analyses of the demographic features, medication use characteristics, and clinical manifestations of suspected ADRs in ADR-exposed patients using data from the Shaanxi Provincial Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center, China, from 2017 to 2021. Using disproportionality methods (reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, and comprehensive standard method), the relationship between drugs and ADRs was measured. Finally, a web-based clinical prediction model for serious ADRs based on binary logistic regression was developed to estimate individual event probabilities numerically. RESULTS We developed a new computer-mineable breast cancer-ADR system. In total, 1119 ADR reports were received between 2017 and 2021, with an increasing trend in the number. Antineoplastic medications of natural sources made up the greatest portion of the drug category (530, 38.10%) while targeted drugs' part increased with time. The medicine with the greatest number of ADR cases was docetaxel. Bone marrow failure was the most reported ADR. The disproportionality methods produced 19 signals of disproportionate reporting, two signals of disproportionate reporting were unknown ADRs. The occurrence of serious ADRs was shown to be substantially correlated with gender, platinum drugs, and blood and lymphatic system disorders. The clinical prediction model for serious ADRs had above-moderate discriminatory power (C-index was 0.775). CONCLUSIONS The number of ADRs to breast cancer antineoplastic drugs was constantly increasing, with docetaxel ranking first, with the majority of ADRs presenting as bone marrow suppression, nausea, and vomiting. Data mining identified 19 signals of disproportionate reporting.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1293468. [PMID: 38362153 PMCID: PMC10867220 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1293468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Despite the clinical value of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM), restricted comprehension of its toxicity limits the secure and efficacious application. Previous studies primarily focused on exploring specific toxicities within CHM, without providing an overview of CHM's toxicity. The absence of a quantitative assessment of focal points renders the future research trajectory ambiguous. Therefore, this study aimed to reveal research trends and areas of concern for the past decade. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on publications related to CHM and toxicity over the past decade from Web of Science Core Collection database. The characteristics of the publication included publication year, journal, institution, funding, keywords, and citation counts were recorded. Co-occurrence analysis and trend topic analysis based on bibliometric analysis were conducted on keywords and citations. Results: A total of 3,225 publications were analyzed. Number of annal publications increased over the years, with the highest number observed in 2022 (n = 475). The Journal of Ethnopharmacology published the most publications (n = 425). The most frequently used toxicity classifications in keywords were hepatotoxicity (n = 119) or drug-induced liver injury (n = 48), and nephrotoxicity (n = 40). Co-occurrence analysis revealed relatively loose connections between CHM and toxicity, and their derivatives. Keywords emerging from trend topic analysis for the past 3 years (2019-2022) included ferroptosis, NLRP3 inflammasome, machine learning, network pharmacology, traditional uses, and pharmacology. Conclusion: Concerns about the toxicity of CHM have increased in the past decade. However, there remains insufficient studies that directly explore the intersection of CHM and toxicity. Hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, as the most concerned toxicity classifications associated with CHM, warrant more in-depth investigations. Apoptosis was the most concerned toxicological mechanism. As a recent increase in attention, exploring the mechanisms of ferroptosis in nephrotoxicity and NLRP3 inflammasome in hepatotoxicity could provide valuable insights. Machine learning and network pharmacology are potential methods for future studies.

Drug-induced interstitial lung disease: a real-world pharmacovigilance study of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System from 2004 to 2021. Ther Adv Drug Saf 2024; 15:20420986231224227. [PMID: 38293566 PMCID: PMC10823853 DOI: 10.1177/20420986231224227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) is an increasingly common cause of morbidity and mortality. However, due to the lack of specificity, DILD detection remains an unsolved public health challenge. Objectives For the first time, we aimed to examine DILD reports submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to identify demographic characteristics and top drugs associated with DILD at a group level (including age, sex, drug class, and country stratification) and individual drug level. Design A retrospective analysis of the FAERS database was examined by disproportionality analysis. Methods We reviewed the FAERS database from 2004 to 2021, using search terms 'interstitial lung disease' and sorting cases by generic drug name. The reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network were calculated as the measure of strength of association. Results There were 32,821 DILD reports in the FAERS. After excluding reports without age, sex, or country data according to the specific measurement, the median age of patients was 68 (interquartile range: 59), 54.77% were male, and 46.00% of reports came from Japan. The top drug classes related to DILD in the FAERS were antineoplastic, followed by cardiovascular and antirheumatic agents, in varying order in different sexes. Fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki, ramucirumab, and eribulin were the top three drugs with the highest strength of association. We also found some drugs without DILD in the labels, such as amiodarone, temsirolimus, and ursodiol. There are significant differences in DILD reports in various countries. For example, the United States and France reported more cardiovascular agents, whereas Canada reported more antirheumatic agents. Conclusion We found the top drugs and drug classes that were associated with DILD in the FAERS, which provides a real-world window for different ages, sexes, and countries to formulate precise pharmacovigilance policies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has become one of those public issues in society, which has added a huge burden to both the individuals and the society. In the current clinical stage, there are numerous drugs developed to treat this disease, and different drug treatment measures have been proven to achieve certain clinical efficacy in the corresponding randomized controlled trials. However, there are still many therapeutic drugs that have not been directly compared and studied. Therefore, it is difficult to directly compare the effectiveness and safety of various strategies for the treatment of DILI. In this regard, the present study collected the therapeutic efficacy of diverse treatments in DILI in recent years through network meta-analysis, evaluated and screened the existing optimal clinical therapeutic plan, and helped physicians formulate clinical therapeutic plans. METHODS Databases, including the Chinese Journal Full-text Database, Wanfang Data Journal Paper Resources (Wangfang), VIP Chinese Science and Technology Journal Full-text Database, The Cochrane Library, PubMed, and EMBASE, were searched using keywords from inception to January 2023. Eligible randomized controlled trials were selected in line with eligibility criteria, and mesh meta-analysis of binary variables was carried out using Stata 16 software. CONCLUSION In combination with alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and total bilirubin, MI may be the intervention measure for minimizing alanine aminotransferase levels in patients after treatment. Besides, compound glycyrrhizin may be the intervention for minimizing aspartate aminotransferase levels in patients after treatment, and polyene phosphatidylcholine may be the intervention for minimizing total bilirubin levels in patients after treatment. Placebo is the potential intervention that has the least adverse reactions post-treatment, and RT has the second least adverse reactions. Moreover, hepatocyte growth-promoting factors may be the most effective intervention after treatment. RESULTS To sum up, the present work compared the clinical effects of 13 liver protective drugs through meta-analysis and provided a systematic understanding of commonly used drugs for the treatment of DILI in clinical practice.

Abstract
Introduction Pharmacogenetics is a potential approach that can be applied to decline the burden of rivaroxaban's ADRs. The current systematic review and meta-analysis aim to identify genetic variants correlated with rivaroxaban exposure and evaluate their importance. Methods We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases for all observational and interventional studies. The fixed effect method was used to pool the data when the Q-test's p value was higher than 0.1. We used random models when the p value was less than 0.1. Results Data from ten studies (4721 participants) were analyzed in the current review. Qualitative synthesis from included studies found that two variants of ABCB1 (rs1045642 and rs2032582) and one variant of APOB (rs13306198) are potential contributors to rivaroxaban concentrations. Both wild homozygotes (AA) and heterozygotes (AC) of rs1045642 have significantly lower rivaroxaban concentrations compared to mutated homozygotes (CC) (SMD = 0.516, 95% CI: 0.115 to 0.917; SMD = 0.772, 95% CI: 0.088 to 1.455, respectively). Nevertheless, pooling unadjusted odds ratios did not yield a statistically significant correlation between rivaroxaban ADRs and genetic mutations. Conclusion This study revealed that being an AC or CC for rs1045642 is attributed to a considerably higher rivaroxaban level in participants using rivaroxaban. That is to say, rs1045642 is a remarkable predictor of rivaroxaban metabolism. We concluded that identifying rs1045642 before drug administration might decrease ADRs although further studies adjusted for potential confounders are strongly suggested.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Drug-induced liver injury remains a critical issue to hinder clinical application of Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets (TGTs) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) therapy. Combination of TGTs with Total Glucosides of Peony (TGP) may be the most common therapeutic strategy for enhancing TGTs' efficacy and reducing its toxicity. Herein, we aimed to investigate the efficacy-enhancing and toxicity-reducing properties and mechanisms of TGT-TGP combination. METHODS Both TGT-induced acute and chronic liver injury animal models were established. ELISA, transmission electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry, western blot and quantitative PCR were performed to determine the efficacy, toxicity and regulatory mechanisms of TGT-TGP combination. RESULTS The compatibility of TGP significantly reduced the abnormal serum ALT and AST levels, and improved liver histopathological changes in both acute and chronic DILI animal models induced by TGTs, with the most effective dosage of TGP-M (medium-dose TGP, 450 mg/kg). Additionally, TGP and TGT synergistically alleviated joint swelling and improved the elevation of serum inflammatory factors, in line with the positive changes in joint histopathological features of collagen induced arthritis mice, with the same effective dosage of TGP-M following 5 weeks' drug combination treatment. Mechanically, TGT significantly increased the number of autophagosomes and the expression of LC3II protein while reducing p62 protein expression in the liver tissues, which were significantly reversed by the compatibility with TGP, similar to the findings based on the inflamed joint tissues. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest an enhanced efficacy with reduced toxicity of TGT by the compatibility with TGP for RA therapy, possibly through regulating various autophagy-related proteins.

Abstract
Background: There have been individual case reports of aripiprazole in recent years, both domestically and internationally, but no analysis of the characteristics of the occurrence of adverse reactions/events of drug-induced liver injury with aripiprazole using spontaneous reports has been seen. Methods: Using a retrospective study approach, the 452 adverse reaction/event reports of aripiprazole-induced liver injury collected by the China Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring System from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2016 were analyzed and evaluated, and exploring it's the clinical characteristics and related risk factors for liver injury occurrence. Results: Among 452 cases of aripiprazole-induced liver injury ADR/ADE reports, there were 121 cases classified as serious, accounting for 26.8% of the total. There were 250 male and 202 female patients, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.24:1. The age of patients ranged from 11 to 77 years old, with an average age of (34.56 ± 12.81) years old, and a high proportion of young adults in the total population. Some patients had used the drug off-label or at a higher than recommended dosage. The onset of liver injury was generally within 15-90 days after continuous use, while some patients are also accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and weight gain. 70% of the combined drug instructions listed that may cause liver injury. Conclusion: In clinical practice, healthcare professionals should pay closely attention to the adverse reactions and risk factors of liver injury caused by aripiprazole. If there are potential risk factors for liver injury, early and regular monitoring of liver function should be carried out to reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions.

Han J, Liu J, Yu Z, Huang R, Zhao L, Xu Y, Chen M, He G, Song Q, Li W, Zhang C. Risk factors for irinotecan-induced liver injury: a retrospective multicentre cross-sectional study in China. BMJ Open 2023; 13:e069794. [PMID: 37349101 PMCID: PMC10314582 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-069794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The hepatotoxicity of irinotecan has been widely implicated in the treatment of multiple solid tumours. However, there are few studies on the influencing factors of irinotecan-induced hepatotoxicity. Herein, we investigated the risk factors for irinotecan-induced liver injury among 421 patients receiving irinotecan-based regimens (IBRs). DESIGN Retrospective multi-centre cross-sectional study. SETTING This study surveyed four hospitals in China. PARTICIPANTS After excluding participants with missing variables, we retrospectively collected the demographic, clinical and therapeutic data of 421 patients who received IBRs in four hospitals between January 2020 and December 2021 and divided the patients into two groups: those without liver injury and those with liver injury. RESULTS The 421 enrolled patients were grouped (liver injury group: n=92; control group: n=329) according to their hepatic biochemical monitoring parameters. In our study, the multivariate logistic regression results showed that three to four cycles of chemotherapy (OR (95% CI): 2.179 (1.272 to 3.733); p=0.005) and liver metastasis (OR (95% CI): 1.748 (1.079 to 2.833); p=0.023) were independent risk factors for irinotecan-induced liver injury. The Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that alcohol consumption history (OR (95% CI): 2.032 (1.183 to 3.491); p=0.010) and a cumulative dose of irinotecan ≥1000 mg (OR (95% CI): 0.362 (0.165 to 0.792); p=0.011) were significantly correlated with the onset time of irinotecan-induced liver injury. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that patients with liver metastasis or who received three to four cycles of chemotherapy should undergo rigorous liver function monitoring to prevent or reduce the incidence of irinotecan-induced liver injury. Moreover, patients with a history of alcohol consumption should also be closely monitored.

Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 160:114325. [PMID: 36738501 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114325] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) remains a critical issue and a hindrance to clinical application of Tripterygium Glycosides Tablet (TGT) despite its favorable therapeutic efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis. Herein, we aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying TGT-induced hepatotoxicity. METHODS Chemical profiling of TGT was identified by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS/MS and its putative targets were predicted based on chemical structure similarity calculation. Following "DILI-related gene-TGT putative target" interaction network construction, a list of key network targets was screened according to nodes' topological importance and functional relevance. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments were performed to determine drug hepatotoxicity and the underlying mechanisms. RESULT A total of 49 chemical components and 914 putative targets of TGTs were identified. Network calculation and functional modularization screened RAS-ERK and mTOR signalings-associated autophagy to be one of the candidate targets of TGT-induced hepatotoxicity. Experimentally, TGT significantly activated RAS-ERK axis, elevated the number of autophagosomes and the expression of LC3II protein, but reduced the expression of p62 protein and suppressed mTOR phosphorylation in the liver tissues of TGT-induced acute liver injury mice and chronic liver injury mice in vivo and AML12 cells in vitro. Moreover, TGT and mL-098 (an activator of RAS) co-treatment reduced AML12 cell viability via regulating autophagy and TGT-induced liver injury-related indicators more dramatically than TGT treatment alone, whereas Salirasib (an inhibitor of RAS) had an opposite effect. CONCLUSION RAS-ERK-mTOR cross-talk may play a crucial role in TGT-induced hepatocyte autophagy, offering a promising target for developing novel therapeutics to combat TGT-induced hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
Sepsis is a common but critical illness in patients admitted to the intensive care unit and is associated with high mortality. Although there are many treatments for sepsis, specific and effective therapies are still lacking. For over 2,000 years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has played a vital role in the treatment of infectious diseases in Eastern countries. Both anecdotal and scientific evidence show that diverse TCM preparations alleviate organ dysfunction caused by sepsis by inhibiting the inflammatory response, reducing oxidative stress, boosting immunity, and maintaining cellular homeostasis. This review reports on the efficacy and mechanism of action of various TCM compounds, herbal monomer extracts, and acupuncture, on the treatment of sepsis and related multi-organ injury. We hope that this information would be helpful to better understand the theoretical basis and empirical support for TCM in the treatment of sepsis.

Abstract
Objective Based on the clinical trials registered on the platform for the registry and publicity of clinical drug trials of the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), the registration and approval of clinical trials of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) in mainland China from 2013 to 2021 were reviewed. Methods Clinical trials of new TCMs published in Chinese were retrieved from the platform for the registry and publicity of clinical drug trials. The number of registered trials and approved trials, status of clinical trials, therapeutic area of clinical trials for the treatment of diseases, type of trial design, sample size, sponsors, and leading clinical trial centers were evaluated. Results From 2013 to 2021, a total of 965 clinical trials of new drugs applied in TCM were registered on the aforementioned NMPA platform, comprising 117 phase I trials, 586 phase II trials, 174 phase III trials, 40 phase IV trials, and 48 other clinical trials. The treatment fields included the respiratory system, alimentary tract and metabolism, genetic system and reproductive hormones, and cardiovascular system. Among the 760 phase II and phase III trials, 98.9% were randomized, 95.4% were double-blind, and 98.2% were parallel controlled trials, and the proportion of placebo-controlled trials increased year by year from 2013 to 2021. From 2013 to 2021, 123 new TCMs were approved in mainland China. Conclusion From 2015 to 2021, the number of registered clinical trials of new TCMs remained low. The approval rate was also low, but the clinical trial design was greatly improved.

Abstract
Sepsis is described as a dysregulation of the immune response to infection, which leads to life-threatening organ dysfunction. The interaction between intestinal microbiota and sepsis can’t be ignored. Furthermore, the intestinal microbiota may regulate the progress of sepsis and attenuate organ damage. Thus, maintaining or restoring microbiota may be a new way to treat sepsis. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) assumes a significant part in the treatment of sepsis through multi-component, multi-pathway, and multi-targeting abilities. Moreover, TCM can prevent the progress of sepsis and improve the prognosis of patients with sepsis by improving the imbalance of intestinal microbiota, improving immunity and reducing the damage to the intestinal barrier. This paper expounds the interaction between intestinal microbiota and sepsis, then reviews the current research on the treatment of sepsis with TCM, to provide a theoretical basis for its clinical application.
