摘要

Traditional herbal pair Paeoniae Radix Rubra (roots of Paeonia lactiflora Pall., Chishao in Chinese) and Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata (lateral roots of Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux, Fuzi in Chinese) are widely used for the treatment of liver diseases, demonstrating clinical efficacy against acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). As the core drug pair representing the "clearing method" and "warming method" in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), they align with the TCM syndromic characteristics of ACLF, characterized by a mixture of deficiencies and realities. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-ACLF effects of Chishao - Fuzi herbal pair remain unclear. To reveal the immunoinflammatory status of patients with hepatitis B virus-related ACLF (HBV-ACLF) based on macrophage polarization and to explore the mechanism of action of Chishao - Fuzi herbal pair in regulating macrophage polarization against ACLF. Peripheral blood samples were prospectively obtained from patients with HBV-ACLF, patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in the immunoactive phase and healthy individuals. Flow cytometry, qRT-qPCR, and ELISA were used to reveal the activation status of monocyte-macrophages and the expression differences in related cytokines in the peripheral blood of patients with HBV-ACLF. Then, an ACLF rat model and a macrophage inflammation model in vitro were established. Hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemical staining, transmission electron microscopy, flow cytometry, western blotting, RT-qPCR, and ELISA were used to observe changes in the expression of M1/M2 macrophage markers and related inflammatory factors after Chishao - Fuzi herbal pair intervention, both in vivo and in vitro. Patients with HBV-ACLF exhibited an imbalance in M1/M2 macrophage polarization, showing a tendency to activate M1 macrophages with high expression of CD86 and iNOS. This imbalance led to an increase in relevant pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) and a decrease in anti-inflammatory factors (IL-10, TGF-β, VEGF), exacerbating the uncontrolled immune-inflammatory response. Chishao - Fuzi herbal pair intervention improved liver function, coagulation function, and histopathological injury in ACLF rats. It also partially ameliorated endotoxemia and inflammatory injury in ACLF. The mechanism was to restore the immune-inflammatory imbalance and prevent the exacerbation of inflammatory response to liver failure by promoting macrophage polarization toward M2 anti-inflammatory direction, inhibiting M1 macrophage activation, and increasing the levels of anti-inflammatory factors and decreasing pro-inflammatory factors. Chishao - Fuzi herbal pair can reduce the systemic inflammatory burden of liver failure by modulating macrophage polarization and restoring ACLF immune-inflammatory imbalance. This study provides new perspectives and strategies for studying HBV-ACLF immune reconstitution and inflammatory response control.
