The complete chloroplast genome of Orthosiphon aristatus (Blume) Miq. (Lamiaceae).

ABSTRACT: Orthosiphon aristatus (Blume) Miq. 1858 is a Lamiaceae plant. It is mainly found in southern China. It is an excellent medicinal plant. The complete chloroplast genome of O. aristatus is 152,155 bp in length, with an average depth of 287×, and the GC content was 37.86%, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 83,098 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,665 bp, and an inverted repeats (IRs) region of 25,696 bp make up the genome's typical tetragonal shape. In addition, the genome consisted of 128 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 35 transfer RNA (tRNA), and eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. A monophyletic group was established by O. aristatus and 13 plants from five genera of Lamiaceae, according to the phylogenetic tree. In contrast, an isolated monophyletic group was formed by the alien plant Cinnamomum aromaticum. The ML tree bootstrap value was relatively high, and O. aristatus was most closely related to Ocimum tenuiflorum and Ocimum basilicum. This study can help with species identification and phylogenetic analysis within O. aristatus and Lamiaceae species.

Project description:IntroductionThe kidney damage caused by the deposition of uric acid in the kidneys is of urgent need for new treatment drugs due to its complex pathogenesis. Orthosiphon aristatus (Blume) Miq. Also known as C. spicatus, which has a significant therapeutic effect on hyperuricemia nephropathy (HN), however, the specific mechanism of its action is still unknown.MethodsThe HN mice model was constructed using adenine (AD) and potassium oxonate (PO), and serum biochemical indexes, kidney pathological changes, xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity in the liver, and renal protein expressions of phosphoribose pyrophosphate synthetase (PRPS) and uric acid transporter were detected. The effects of C. spicatus on uric acid lowering, anti-inflammation, and renal protection of HN mice were verified. The effect of C. spicatus on gut microbiota was assessed by 16 S rRNA sequencing. Establish pseudo-sterile mice through the combined treatment of ampicillin, neomycin, and vancomycin to verify the role of gut microbiota in improving HN in C. spicatus.ResultsIn HN mice, C. spicatus could significantly reduce serum uric acid levels and improve renal function. In addition, C. spicatus modulated gut microbiota and decreased the relative abundance of Bacteroides, Prevotellaceae_UCG-001 and Alistipes, and increased the abundance of Alloprevotella and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group.C.spicatus altered the expression of the renal urate transporter and key enzymes in hepatic urate synthesis, leading to a decrease in serum uric acid levels. C. spicatus alleviated kidney inflammation by inhibiting the activation of the NLRP3 and TLR4/MYD88 inflammatory pathways, and reduced the level of kidney inflammatory factors. It also improved kidney damage by inhibiting the process of renal epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and improved kidney fibrosis. In pseudo-sterile HN mice, without the effect of gut microbiota, the uric acid lowering, anti-inflammatory, and renal fibrosis improving effects of C. spicatus were significantly reduced.ConclusionOur results demonstrated that C. spicatus could reduce uric acid levels, anti-inflammatory effects, and improve HN by regulating the gut microbiota. This provides a novel scientific basis for the clinical application of C. spicatus.
