Compound sophorae decoction (CSD) effectively treats ulcerative colitis (UC) by reducing ferroptosis and inflammation. This study reveals CSD activates the Keap1/Nrf2/GPX4 pathway, offering a novel therapeutic mechanism for UC.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Cell Biology

Background:

  • Compound sophorae decoction (CSD) is clinically used for ulcerative colitis (UC).
  • The precise therapeutic mechanisms of CSD for UC remain unclear.
  • This study investigates CSD's efficacy and molecular mechanisms against UC.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the protective effects of CSD against DSS-induced UC in rats.
  • To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying CSD's therapeutic action, focusing on ferroptosis.
  • To identify key active components and signaling pathways involved in CSD treatment.

Main Methods:

  • HPLC-MS/MS and TLC were used to analyze CSD constituents.
  • In vitro studies used H2O2-treated Caco-2 cells to assess CSD's impact on ferroptosis.

  • In vivo studies utilized a DSS-induced UC rat model to evaluate CSD's effects on inflammation, oxidative stress, and ferroptosis markers.
  • Main Results:

    • Ten main active components were identified in CSD.
    • CSD significantly reduced intestinal injury, inflammation, oxidative stress, and lipid peroxidation in DSS-treated rats.
    • CSD suppressed ferroptosis by upregulating GPX4 and SLC7A11 expression via Nrf2 pathway activation.

    Conclusions:

    • CSD ameliorates ferroptosis in DSS-induced UC rats.
    • The protective effects of CSD are mediated by the activation of the Keap1/Nrf2/GPX4 signaling pathway.
    • CSD demonstrates potential as a therapeutic agent for ulcerative colitis.
