In Vivo Model |
C57BL/6 mice (Male, 6-8 weeks old, 20 g± 2 g) were purchased from Chengdu Yaokang Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Chengdu, China). All animals were housed in the animal room of Shaanxi University ofTraditional Chinese Medicine, at a temperature of 22 ± 2 and a humidity of 40% ± 5%, alternating between light and dark. In the study, the mice were randomly divided into six groups (n = 10 in each group): the blank group, model group,XJZ high dose group, XJZ medium dose group, XJZ low dose group, and positive control (omeprazole) group. The mice in the model group were given Aspirin (300 mg/kg) via gavage for 14 days; the mice in the XJZ high dose group, XJZ medium dose group, and XJZ low dose group were given aspirin (300 mg/kg) by gavage in the morning and three different concentrations (12 g/kg, 6 g/kg, or 3 g/kg) of XJZ decoction by gavage in the afternoon; the mice in the positive control group were given aspirin (300 mg/kg) by gavage in the morning andomeprazole(20 mg/kg) by gavage in the afternoon. After the model was successfully constructed, the mice were anesthetized with isoflurane and gastric tissues were extracted for analysis.

Response regulation | Xiaojianzhong (XJZ) significantly counteracted aspirin-induced gastric mucosal injury and inhibited oxidative stress and ferroptosis in mice. Upon examining SQSTM1/p62(p62)/ Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)/Nuclear Factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2), a well-known signaling pathway involved in the regulation of oxidative stress and ferroptosis, we found that its activation was significantly inhibited by aspirin treatment and that this signaling pathway was activated after XJZ intervention. | ||||
