Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Jieyu Huatan Xiaoyu Formula (JYHTXYF) in patients with gastric precancerous lesions (GPL) of liver-stomach disharmony type and to observe its effects on the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)-Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1(Keap1) signaling pathway. Methods A prospective study enrolled 100 GPL patients with liver-stomach disharmony syndrome treated at the Department of Gastroenterology,Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin Academy of Chinese Medicine from August 2023 to August 2024. Participants were randomized into control group (n=50,treated with Moluodan Pills) and trial group (n=50,treated with JYHTXYF decoction) for 6 months. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, gastroscopic pathological scores,serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels,along with Nrf2-Keap pathway-related gene/protein expressions were assessed before and after treatment. Results (1) Regarding clinical efficacy,after 6 months of treatment,the total effective rate was 94.00% (47/50) in the trial group and 76.00% (38/50) in the control group. Intergroup comparison (by chi-square test) showed that the efficacy of the trial group was significantly superior to that of the control group (P<0.05).(2) In terms of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores,after treatment,the scores for TCM syndromes such as epigastric pain,gastric distension,belching,and poor appetite decreased in both groups compared to those before treatment (P<0.05), and the reduction in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group (P<0.01).(3) Regarding gastroscopic pathological scores,after treatment,the scores for gastric mucosal atrophy,intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia, and chronic inflammation decreased in both groups compared to those before treatment (P<0.05), and the reduction in the trial group was significantly greater than that in the control group (P<0.01).(4) In terms of oxidative stress indicators,after treatment,SOD levels increased in both groups compared to before treatment (P<0.05),while serum MDA levels decreased (P<0.05). The magnitude of increase in serum SOD levels and the magnitude of decrease in serum MDA levels in the trial group were significantly greater than those in the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01).(5) Regarding the expression levels of genes related to the Nrf2-Keap signaling pathway, after treatment, the relative mRNA expression levels of Nrf2, NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1),and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in gastric mucosal tissue increased in both groups compared to those before treatment (P<0.05),and the increase in the trial group was significantly greater than that in the control group (P<0.01).(6) Regarding the expression levels of proteins related to the Nrf2-Keap signaling pathway,after treatment,the relative protein expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD2) in gastric mucosal tissue increased in both groups compared to those before treatment (P<0.05),and the increase in the trial group was significantly greater than that in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion JYHTXYF effectively improves TCM syndromes and gastroscopic pathology in GPL patients of liver-stomach disharmony type, elevates serum antioxidant enzyme levels,and upregulates the expression of genes and proteins associated with the Nrf2-Keap1 signaling pathway, thereby enhancing clinical efficacy. The study will provide novel insights and approaches for the treatment of gastric precancerous lesions.
