Hyperforin
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Hyperforin is a transient receptor canonical 6 (TRPC6) channels activator. Hyperforin modulates Ca2+ levels by activating Ca2+-conducting non-selective canonical TRPC6 channels and triggers adipose tissue thermogenesis via the Dlat-AMPK signaling axis to suppress obesity. Hyperforin also shows diverse pharmacological activities including anti-depression, anti-tumor, anti-dementia, anti-diabetes. Hyperforin modulates γδ T cells to secret IL-17α, improves Imiquimod (HY-B0180)-induced psoriasis-like mice model.

In Vitro
Hyperforin has a multi-directional mechanism of action. It blocks conductance of ligand-gated (GABA, NMDA, and AMPA receptors) and voltage-gated channels (Ca2+, K+, and Na+)[2].
Hyperforin (0.1, 1, 10 μM; 2 h) reduces the expression and secretion of IL-17A in γδ T cell in vitro cultured murine splenic γδ T cells[3].
Hyperforin (0.1, 1, 10 μM; 2 h) suppresses phosphorylation of MAPK and STAT3 pathways in TNF-α stimulated HaCaT cells[3].
Hyperforin (IC50=3.7 μmol/L) inhibits the microvascular tube formation and proliferation of HDMEC in a dose-dependent manner without toxic effects[4].

Imiquimod-Induced Psoriasiform Dermatitis
Imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasiform dermatitis is a widely used murine model in which topical application of IMQ, a Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist, triggers innate immune activation in the skin and induces a psoriasis-like inflammatory cascade characterized by epidermal hyperplasia, immune cell infiltration, and cytokine production dominated by the IL-23/IL-17 axis. This inflammatory response is mediated through activation of dendritic cells and downstream induction of IL-23, IL-17A, IL-22, and related pro-inflammatory mediators, recapitulating key features of human plaque psoriasis and enabling mechanistic and therapeutic studies. The model is commonly induced using Aldara (5% IMQ cream) applied topically to murine skin, resulting in rapid onset of erythema, scaling, and thickening that can be quantified as disease severity indices and validated histologically.

Large-size fat particle sorting
Large-size fat particle sorting is widely used to isolate cells up to 200 μm in diameter. Single-cell flow sorting will allow greater insight into adipocyte heterogeneity by identifying gene expression, protein composition, and metabolic signatures at the single-cell level.

Ca2+ Staining Technique
Ca2+ staining is an experimental technique that utilizes specific fluorescent probes (such as Fluo-4 AM, Fura-2, etc.) to qualitatively or quantitatively detect dynamic changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations; this is achieved by monitoring the changes in fluorescent signals generated when these probes bind to free intracellular calcium ions. The underlying principle relies primarily on the presence of chelating groups within the probe's molecular structure that possess high affinity for calcium ions.

Research Protocol for Metabolic Diseases
AMP-activated protein kinase, AMPK, is a conserved cellular energy sensor that responds to reduced cellular energy status and coordinates metabolism by increasing ATP-generating catabolic pathways while suppressing ATP-consuming anabolic processes. In metabolic disease research, the AMPK pathway is experimentally relevant because it regulates hepatic lipid synthesis, fatty acid oxidation, glucose production, skeletal-muscle glucose disposal, mTORC1-linked biosynthesis, autophagy, mitochondrial homeostasis, and whole-body energy balance. The central pathway logic is that energy stress, metformin, exercise-like stimulation, or direct AMPK activators increase AMPKα Thr172 phosphorylation and downstream substrate phosphorylation, including ACC and RAPTOR. Phosphorylation of ACC suppresses lipogenesis and supports fatty acid oxidation, whereas phosphorylation of RAPTOR suppresses mTORC1 signaling and links cellular energy status to growth and protein synthesis control. The pathway is linked

Cuproptosis Solutions
Cuproptosis is a copper-dependent regulated cell-death pathway in which intracellular copper binds lipoylated tricarboxylic acid cycle proteins, especially DLAT-containing pyruvate dehydrogenase complex components, causing lipoylated protein aggregation, iron-sulfur cluster protein loss, proteotoxic stress, and cell death. The pathway is functionally linked to mitochondrial respiration because copper-ionophore sensitivity is higher in cells dependent on oxidative phosphorylation, and FDX1 and protein lipoylation machinery are required for copper-ionophore-induced death. Elesclomol-Cu and related copper-loading strategies are widely used experimental tools to induce cuproptosis, whereas copper chelation with tetrathiomolybdate or genetic suppression of FDX1, LIAS, LIPT1, or DLAT can test pathway dependence. The major unresolved questions are how disease context determines cuproptosis sensitivity, how copper transporters such as SLC31A1/CTR1 and ATP7A/ATP7B regulate the pathway, and whic
