Mechanism of Huayu Qutan recipe anti-atherosclerosis mediates lipophagymammalian target of rapamycin complex 1/ transcription factor EB signaling pathway in ApoE-/-mice.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the effects of Huayu Qutan recipe (, HYQT) on the atherosclerosis (AS) model of ApoE-/- mice with a high-fat diet and to illustrate the underlying mechanisms from modern patho-physiological conceptualizations.

Methods

High performance liquid chromatography of quadrupole time of flight-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) analysis was used to identify the active compounds in the recipe. The mice were randomly allocated into 7 groups: control (CTRL) group, normal diet (ND) group, high-fat diet (HFD) group, HYQT groups (low dose, medium dose, and high dose), and simvastatin (SIM) group. Deferent doses of HYQT were gavaged twice a day, and then the protective effect of HYQT on plaque formation in ApoE-/- mice with a high-fat diet was verified v
