Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent male sexual disorder, commonly associated with hypertension, though the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Objective This study aims to explore role of Fatty acid synthase (Fasn) in hypertension-induced ED and evaluate therapeutic potential Fasn inhibitor C75. Materials methods function was assessed by determining intracavernous pressure/mean arterial pressure (ICP/MAP) ratio, followed collection cavernous tissue for transcriptomic non-targeted metabolomic analyses. In vitro , concentration 10 -6 M angiotensin II (Ang II) applied rat aortic endothelial cells (RAOECs) establish model hypertension. vivo spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were randomly divided into two groups. The SHR+C75 group received intraperitoneal injections C75 at dose 2 mg/kg once week. After five weeks treatment, erectile assessed, penile tissues harvested further analysis. Molecular protein expression using Western blotting, qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence staining, immunohistochemistry. Results SHR exhibited ED, indicated reduced maximum ICP/MAP ratios. Histologically, corpus cavernosum showed elevated fibrosis dysfunction. Additionally, increased NLRP3 inflammasome, Caspase-1, GSDMD, pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β IL-18 observed. Multi-omics analysis revealed significant enrichment lipid metabolic pathways, identified as hub gene. siFasn enhanced antioxidant markers Nrf2 HO-1, ROS accumulation, suppressed GSDMD levels. treatment restored reversed dysfunction, accompanied decreased oxidative stress pyroptosis cavernosum. Conclusion These findings suggest that inhibition may offer promising strategy alleviating suppressing inflammasome-dependent cell via activation Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Hydroxytyrosol (HT), a principal bioactive phytochemical abundant in Mediterranean dietary sources, has emerged as molecule of significant scientific interest owing to its multifaceted health-promoting properties. Accumulating evidence suggests that HT’s therapeutic potential metabolic disorders extends beyond conventional antioxidant capacity encompass mitochondrial regulatory networks. This review synthesizes contemporary from our systematic investigations and the existing literature delineate comprehensive modulatory effects on homeostasis. We systematically summarized impact HT dynamics (fusion/fission equilibrium), biogenesis energy metabolism, mitophagy, inter-organellar communication with endoplasmic reticulum, microbiota–mitochondria crosstalk. Through this multidimensional analysis, we established homeostasis modulator applications syndrome (MetS) related pathologies including type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity-related dysfunction, dyslipidemia, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, hypertension-related complications. Moreover, further discussed translational challenges research, emphasizing imperative for direct target identification, mitochondrial-targeted delivery system development, combinatorial strategies. Collectively, provides mechanistic framework advancing research accelerating clinical implementation MetS diseases.

The "Anchang" Group Prescription (ACZF), based on the traditional Bai Tou Weng Decoction and Si Jun Zi Decoction, has demonstrated clinical efficacy in alleviating symptoms of radiation enteritis (RE). Nevertheless, precise active components their underlying molecular mechanisms ACZF's effect RE require further elucidation. This investigation seeks to delineate explore by which ACZF mitigates RE, utilizing both network pharmacology experimental approaches provide a solid theoretical base for subsequent research applications. Utilizing pharmacology, this constructed comprehensive "drug-active ingredient-target gene-disease" model leveraging resources such as TCMSP, SwissTargetPrediction, GeneCard, OMIM. Cytoscape 3.8.2 along with STRING database were instrumental developing protein-protein interaction (PPI) identification pivotal targets. Functional enrichment analyses, including Gene Ontology (GO) Kyoto Encyclopedia Genes Genomes (KEGG) pathways, conducted via DAVID database.
