ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of the Qufengxuanfei Decoction (QFXFD) in improving airway neurogenic inflammation in chronic cough through network pharmacology and animal experiments.MethodsThe active components and potential targets of QFXFD were identified using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP). Disease-related targets associated with chronic cough were retrieved from the GeneCards, OMIM, and TTD. The intersection of drug targets and disease targets was determined, and a “TCM–bioactive compounds–intersection targets” network was constructed using Cytoscape software. Protein–protein interaction (PPI) analysis of the intersecting targets was performed via the STRING database to identify core genes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were subsequently conducted. Molecular docking was performed using AutoDock and related tools to validate the interactions between key active compounds and core targets. A guinea pig model of heightened cough sensitivity was established, followed by intervention with QFXFD. Cough frequency, differential cell counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and histopathological changes in lung tissue were evaluated. In addition, the expression levels of PLC-β, PKC, TRPA1, TRPV1, and SP/NK-1R in lung tissues were assessed.ResultsThe key bioactive constituents of QFXFD responsible for alleviating airway neurogenic inflammation in chronic cough were identified as quercetin, β-sitosterol, luteolin, kaempferol, stigmasterol, and tanshinone IIA. A total of 207 intersecting targets between QFXFD and chronic cough were identified, with core targets including TP53, AKT1, IL6, MAPK1, MAPK3, TNF, BCL2, CASP3, ESR1, CCND1, HSP90AA1, and MYC. These shared targets were significantly enriched in 838 biological processe (BP), 188 molecular function (MF), 104 cellular component (CC), and 179 KEGG pathways. Molecular docking analyses demonstrated favorable binding affinities between tanshinone IIA and TP53, luteolin and TP53, kaempferol and TNF, as well as quercetin and TNF. Animal experiments showed that the QFXFD could significantly improve the peripheral cough hypersensitivity state of guinea pigs with increased cough sensitivity, reduce the frequency of cough, decrease the proportion of neutrophils and eosinophils in BALF, improve the pathological damage of lung tissue, and also reduce the expression levels of PLC-β, PKC, TRPA1, TRPV1, and SP/NK-1R.ConclusionQFXFD exerts its therapeutic effects through a multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway mechanism. Its diverse active constituents modulate a variety of signaling pathways and regulate key biological processes related to inflammation and immune responses, thereby contributing to the improvement of airway neurogenic inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness. These findings provide a valuable theoretical and experimental basis for the clinical application and further development of QFXFD as a potential therapeutic strategy for chronic cough.
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of Qufeng Xuanfei Formula in guinea pigs with cough hypersensitivity induced by neurogenic inflammation. Methods According to the random number table method, 30 guinea pigs were randomly divided into the blank group, model group, Qufeng Xuanfei Formula group, pregabalin group, and voltage-gated sodium channel (Nav) 1.7 inhibitor group, with 6 animals per group. Except the blank group, the guinea pigs of the other groups were immunocompromised by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (3u00D710-2 g/kg); 2 days later, they were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL normal saline containing 2 mg ovalbumin and 100 mg aluminum hydroxide; 3 weeks later, they received booster sensitization by intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL normal saline containing 0.01 mg ovalbumin and 100 mg aluminum hydroxide. The blank group was injected intraperitoneally with the same volume of normal saline. Three weeks after booster sensitization, 1% ovalbumin solution was administered by aerosol inhalation for challenge. Successful modeling was defined as cough frequency u226510 times within 3 minutes after challenge and was accompanied by typical coughing behaviors. After successful modeling, the Qufeng Xuanfei Formula group was given Qufeng Xuanfei Formula (5 g/kg) by gavage; the blank group and model group were given an equal volume of normal saline by gavage; the pregabalin group was given pregabalin solution (3u00D710-2 g/kg) by gavage; the Nav1.7 inhibitor group received aerosol inhalation of Nav1.7 inhibitor PF-05089771 solution (100 u03BCmol/L) for 20 minutes each time; all interventions were administered once daily for 7 days. The general condition of guinea pigs was observed. Cough frequency was measured by capsaicin aerosol stimulation. Serum levels of interleukin (IL)-4, IL-6, IL-1u03B2, and tumor necrosis factor-u03B1 (TNF-u03B1) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The mRNA expressions of Nav1.7, substance P (SP), and nuclear factor-u03BAB (NF-u03BAB) p65 in the dorsal root ganglia were detected by real-time PCR. The protein expressions of Nav1.7, SP, NF-u03BAB p65, and phosphorylated NF-u03BAB p65 (p-NF-u03BAB p65) in the dorsal root ganglia were detected by western blotting. Results Compared with the blank group, guinea pigs in the model group exhibited typical behavioral characteristics including increased respiratory rate, frequent coughing, obvious abdominal muscle contraction, forelimb extension, neck extension, and open-mouth breathing. Their general condition was poor, manifested as reduced food and water intake, decreased activity, preference for curling up, listless mental state, and fluffy coat. After capsaicin stimulation, cough frequency increased, serum levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-1u03B2, and TNF-u03B1 increased, and the mRNA expressions of Nav1.7, SP, and NF-u03BAB p65 in dorsal root ganglia, as well as the protein expressions of Nav1.7, SP, p-NF-u03BAB p65, and p-NF-u03BAB p65/NF-u03BAB p65 were all elevated (Pu0026lt;0.05). Compared with the model group, guinea pigs in each treatment group showed decreased spontaneous cough frequency over time, gradual recovery of food and water intake, increased activity, improved mental state, and gradually lustrous coat. Cough frequency induced by capsaicin decreased, serum levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-1u03B2, and TNF-u03B1 decreased, and in the Qufeng Xuanfei Formula group and Nav1.7 inhibitor group, the mRNA expressions of Nav1.7, SP, and NF-u03BAB p65 in the dorsal root ganglia, as well as the protein expressions of Nav1.7, SP, p-NF-u03BAB p65, and p-NF-u03BAB p65/NF-u03BAB p65 were all decreased (Pu0026lt;0.05). Conclusion Qufeng Xuanfei Formula can effectively alleviate cough symptoms in guinea pigs with cough hypersensitivity. Its mechanism may involve inhibiting the activity of the NF-u03BAB signaling pathway in the dorsal root ganglia, thereby down-regulating Nav1.7 expression and alleviating neurogenic inflammation.

Objective To explore pattern distribution characteristics of chronic cough.Methods A total of 771 chronic cough patients were included. A clinical questionnaire for TCM syndromes of chronic cough designed by us was used to collect four TCM diagnostic information, including TCM symptoms, signs, tongue and pulse. SPSS 22.0 was used for frequency statistical analysis. Pathological factors, positional factors and syndrome distribution characteristics of chronic cough patients were discussed based on the exploratory factor analysis.Results Thirty six variables with frequency>8% were selected from 76 information variables of four diagnostic information, then factor analysis was conducted as observation indexes of four diagnostic information.The KMO value was 0.620(>0.5) and Bartlett ball type test result was F =630, P <0.001, indicating it was suitable for factor analysis. A total of 12 common factors with initial eigenvalue > 1 were extracted. The cumulative contribution rate was 59.368%. The common factor scores of 771 cases were calculated by the regression method. Pathological factors of 771 chronic cough patients were wind(77.43%), dampness-heat(62.13%), phlegm dampness(35.15%), Yang deficiency(29.31%), cold rheum(26.98%) and Yin deficiency(11.41%). Positional factors were the lung(88.98%), spleen(79.77%), stomach(39.43%) and kidney(30.35%). Syndrome distribution characteristics of 771 chronic cough patients were wind hidden in the lung pattern(71.85%), dampness heat retained in the lung pattern(47.86%), phlegm dampness blocking the lung pattern(25.42%), cold fluid hidden in the lung pattern(21.14%), the lung and spleen Yang deficiency pattern(10.89%) and lung Yin deficiency pattern(0.91%).Conclusion The most common traditional Chinese medicine pattern type of chronic cough is wind hidden in the lung pattern, followed by dampness heat blocking the lung pattern, phlegm dampness blocking the lung pattern, cold rheum hidden in the lung pattern, the lung and spleen Yang deficiency pattern and the lung Yin deficiency pattern. Each pattern can exist alone, but also often coexist with each other. The characteristics of the chronic cough pattern reflect the complicated etiology and pathogenesis of chronic cough. The common pathogenesis of chronic cough is wind hidden in the lung. Pathogenesis characteristics of chronic cough include combination of internal and external pathogenic factors, viscera and bowels interrelated, mixed deficiency and excess. The chronic cough is characterized by a long course of disease, relapsed attacks, protracted and difficult to cure.
什么是痰证 "痰证"是中医原创的概念."痰"大家都很熟悉,但在中医里,"痰"的概念更为广泛,它是津、液因气化功能失常在人体内逐渐积聚形成的产物,而"痰证"是体内水液输布、运化失常,停积于某些部位的一类病证.
This work aimed to clarify the potential regulating effects of Qufeng Xuanfei formula (QFXF) on airway neurogenic inflammation and its underlying target signal pathway. Guinea pig model of airway hyperergy (AHR) was used. The relative susceptibility of major proteins to airway neurogenic inflammation was assessed using Western blot immunoassay followed by being separated by SDS-PAGE. Compared to the model group, QFXF of all concentrations effectively depressed the capsaicin enhanced cough in guinea pigs and the peak values of airway resistance significantly decreased. The results illustrated that QFXF alleviated cough symptom in guinea pigs and reduced airway neurogenic inflammation when compared to AHR model group. Airway inflammation and damage, as well as the levels of NGF, SP and c-Fos in QFXF decreased the most in the high-dose group. The mechanism of antitussive activity may be associated with reducing airway inflammation. QFXF displayed effect on chronic cough through reducing the levels of neuropeptides, attenuating airway inflammation and promoting recovery from disease to decrease the airway neuro sensitivity, suggesting that the potential mechanism may be related to Ras/ERK/c-Fos pathway.

难治性慢性咳嗽(chronic refractory cough,CRC)是经过全面检查仍无法明确病因,或经过常规治疗后仍无明显缓解的咳嗽,其发病率在5%~12%,严重影响患者的生活质量.目前对CRC的研究尚在探索阶段,缺少专业、深入、系统的认识.关于发病机制,目前认为咳嗽高敏感性是CRC的关键特征和重要病理生理基础,与气道炎症反应、咳嗽中枢敏化、TRP通路激活有关;关于治疗,目前主要集中在药物治疗和非药物治疗两个方面,药物治疗主要包括中枢神经调节剂、受体拮抗剂以及大环内酯类抗生素、异丙托溴铵等,非药物治疗手段主要由言语病理治疗(speech pathology treatment,SPT)及咳嗽抑制性生理治疗构成.该文对CRC发病机制及治疗的研究进展进行了总结,旨在为CRC的防治和相关研究提供参考.
上气道咳嗽综合征/鼻后滴流综合征是慢性咳嗽常见病因之一,鼻炎、鼻窦炎等是其主要原因.西医治疗本病不良反应较多,且复发率相对较高.中医治疗本病源流悠久,临床效果较好,且副作用相对较少.结合中医古籍文献、古今医家理论及课题组经验,提出以"鼻咳"来命名上气道咳嗽综合征/鼻后滴流综合征,认为本病病位主要在鼻、肺,基本病机为鼻窍壅塞、肺失宣降,病性属虚实夹杂,基本治则为祛邪通窍、宣肺止咳,临床可视具体情况辨证论治.
胃食管反流性咳嗽(GERC)是慢性咳嗽的常见病因之一,近年来发现GERC的比例较高,长期使用抑酸剂会造成一定的不良反应且对难治性GERC的效果较差,反复发作的咳嗽严重影响患者的生活质量.GERC发病机制尚未完全明确,感觉神经贯穿GERC的多个环节.外周与中枢神经敏化之间相互作用,可能放大了炎症效应,触发机体的咳嗽冲动.瞬时受体电位离子通道作为感觉神经纤维的重要通道蛋白,参与、介导神经纤维信号的形成与传导,能够加强外周与中枢神经之间的联系,可能是GERC的重要发病机制.因此,基于外周与中枢神经敏化对GERC发病机制的进一步探究可能为其治疗提供新思路.
This study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis to investigate whether short-term exposure to fine (PM2.5) and coarse (PM10) particulate matter was associated with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) hospitalization, emergency room visit, and outpatient visit at different lag values. PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched for relevant papers published up to March 2021. For studies reporting results per 1-mu g/m(3) increase in PM2.5, the results were recalculated as per 10-mu g/m(3) increase. We manually calculated the RRs for these two studies and transferred the RRs to estimate 10 mu g/m(3) increases in PM2.5. Automation tools were initially used to remove ineligible studies. Two reviewers independently screened the remaining records and retrieved reports. Twenty-six studies (28 datasets; 7,018,419 patients) were included. There was a significant association between PM2.5 and AECOPD events on lag0 (ES = 1.01, 95%CI: 1.01-1.02, p < 0.001; I-2=88.6%, P-heterogeneity<0.001), lag1 (ES = 1.00, 95%CI: 1.00-1.01, p < 0.001; I-2=82.5%, P-heterogeneity<0.001), lag2 (ES = 1.01, 95%CI: 1.01-1.01, p < 0.001; I-2=90.6%, P-heterogeneity<0.001), lag3 (ES = 1.01, 95%CI: 1.00-1.01, p < 0.001; I-2=88.9%, P-heterogeneity<0.001), lag4 (ES = 1.00, 95%CI: 1.00-1.01, p < 0.001; I-2=83.7%, P-heterogeneity<0.001), and lag7 (ES = 1.00, 95%CI: 1.00-1.00, p < 0.001; I-2=0.0%, P-heterogeneity=0.743). The subgroup analyses showed that PM2.5 influenced the rates of hospitalization, emergency room visits, and outpatient visits. Similar trends were observed with PM10. The risk of AECOPD events (hospitalization, emergency room visit, and outpatient visit) was significantly increased with a 10-mu g/m(3) increment in PM2.5 and PM10 from lag0 to lag7.
难治性慢性咳嗽(CRC)是经过全面检查仍无法明确病因,或经过常规治疗后咳嗽仍无明显缓解的咳嗽,越来越成为临床亟待解决的棘手问题.CRC在中医学系统中暂无特定命名,但根据其迁延难治特点可命名为"顽咳".纵观中医历史源流,"顽咳"相关的论治可散见于中医临床理论与实践过程中,但缺乏较为系统的梳理.本文以"多维度"作为切入点,分别从病因、病性、病位、证候不同方面去理解CRC的病机,并对其辨治思路进行总结,认为CRC属于虚实夹杂、寒热错杂的疾病,病位在肺,病机与脏腑密切相关,以"肺脾相关"尤为重要,风邪伏肺是其基本病机,也是贯穿该病发生发展始终的核心病机.在治法用药方面以祛风宣肺为主,重点关注肺脾两脏,结合辨证予清热化湿、健脾温肺化饮、除湿化痰,同时也注意疏肝调木法的运用,随证灵活加减,圆机活法.
