Core Tip

Core Tip: Currently, there are still many limitations in the therapeutic drugs for hyperuricemia (HUA), and the side effects of drugs significantly restrict their clinical application. The total leech total protein (LTP) extracted from the Poecilobdella manillensis lyophilized powder from traditional Chinese medicine can reduce blood uric acid through multiple targets and channels. This paper demonstrates that whole LTP will be an important addition to the treatment of HUA in the future, and is expected to further promote the study of the role of LTP on the regulation of the gut microbiota and the serum metabolome, and provide new insights into the therapeutic strategy of HUA.
