Fraxin is a bioactive compound derived from Cortex Fraxini. It known for its diverse biological activities and numerous benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, antimicrobial, antiviral, immunomodulatory effects. Despite growing interest in natural compounds cardiovascular diseases Fraxin’s atheroprotective properties molecular targets have not yet been fully elucidated. To address this gap, our research employed an integrated approach combining network pharmacology, docking simulations, vitro validation to systematically unravel therapeutic mechanisms against atherosclerosis (AS). The results showed that 84 potential AS were predicted through public databases, the key target TLR4 was identified by protein–protein interaction analysis. GO enrichment KEGG pathway analysis revealed these significantly enriched PI3K-Akt oxidative stress responses pathways. Subsequently conducted studies validated modulates TLR4/PI3K/Akt signaling suppress reactive oxygen species generation downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines Il1b, Il6, Tnf thereby slowing atherosclerotic disease advancement. This investigation methodically delineates underlying management, establishing scientific foundation translation into clinical practice.

Glucocorticoid (GC) is extensively used in clinical practice, and the osteonecrosis of femoral head caused by them a common issue orthopedic surgery, yet underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Astaxanthin (AST), potent natural antioxidant, has an unexplored impact on GC-induced (GIONFH). This study explores effects AST counteracting dexamethasone (Dex)-induced ferroptosis GIONFH. We developed rat model GIONFH using intraperitoneal Dex injections conducted vitro analysis culturing osteoblasts (OBs) with treatment. assessed Dex-treated OBs C11-BODIPY FerroOrange staining, mitochondrial functionality tests, protein expression analyses through Western blot immunofluorescence. The influence bone microarchitecture was micro-CT, hematoxylin eosin immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry at imaging histological levels. Our findings suggest that exerts inhibitory effect Dex-induced In vitro, treatment increased glutathione decreased malondialdehyde, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial-reactive oxygen species. Additionally, also enhances phosphorylation STAT3, upregulates peroxidase 4 osteogenic-related proteins, stimulates formation. To delve deeper into mechanism, revealed triggered activation JAK2/STAT3 signaling. Moreover, use siRNA-STAT3 blocked beneficial cultivated Dex. brief, combats activating pathway to inhibit ferroptosis.
