Metabolomic-based investigation of Yinlan alleviating hyperlipidemia by inhibiting blood stasis and phlegm turbidity through the PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1-FXR pathway

Yinlan lipid regulatory capsule (YL) is a composite traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) new drug to alleviate hyperlipidemia, while its therapeutic mechanism in vivo was not clarified with nontargeted metabolomics investigation. An animal model was established in rats fed a high-fat diet, and their body weights, body mass index (BMI) and blood cholesterol levels were measured. Serum, liver and kidney tissue samples were also extracted for PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1-FXR signaling pathway research using PCR and UHPLC–MS. The obtained plasma samples were analyzed by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS metabolomic investigation, which revealed PXR-CYP3A4-related metabolites and changes induced by YL. Finally, the key metabolites were chosen as index components, and their levels in the serum, liver, small intestine and bile were used for simultaneous UHPLC–MS-MS determination. The results indicated that YL was effective in rebalancing blood TG and TC levels (compared to controls). With respect to the PXR-CYP3A4-ABCB1 pathway, as a result of YL’s effect, gene expression or activity of the two targets decreased significantly in both the liver and kidney. The same trend was observed in the serum samples mentioned above. Metabolomics screening and data revealed that 44 metabolites can be regarded as biomarkers related to hyperlipidemia, fatty acids synthesis, and body energy consumption, as well as synthesis, transportation and exertion of cholesterol. YL’s treatment focused on 26 of them, primarily bile acids, indicating that the antihyperlipidemic effect of this drug lies in its inhibitory activity of cholesterol metabolism. Subsequent analysis of those in vivo components revealed that significant increases (compared to the model group) occurred in the blood, liver, small intestine and bile in groups that received medium and high doses of YL (while the low dose was relatively unchanged). Those target components exhibit a close relationship with PXR and/or CYP3A4. The use of YL repressed PXR expression and subsequently decreased CYP3A4 activity. As a result, synthesis of related bile acids increased, while cholesterol levels decreased, consequently leading to the attenuation of hyperlipidemia. This study comprehensively investigated the antihyperlipidemia mechanism of YL based on its repression of PXR-CYP3A4 activity and related metabolite yield, establishing an accurate method for evaluating the therapeutic effect of YL.     

中药材巴戟天及其水煎液微量元素的分布模式

模拟传统煎药方式,制备巴戟天水煎液。用电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)测定了药材及其水煎液中11种微量元素Cr、Mn、Co、Ni、Cu、Zn、As、Se、Cd、Sn、Pb含量,用火焰原子吸收光谱法(FAAS)测定了微量元素Fe含量。根据微量元素含量,得到了药材及水煎液微量元素的分布模式。结果表明,巴戟天药材样品富含人体必需元素Fe、Mn、Zn,含量分别是1086.3、393.8、15.1μg.g-1;巴戟天药材与水煎液微量元素的分布模式图清晰地显示了其微量元素的分布特征,且药材与水煎液微量元素的分布模式以及不同煎制时间下水煎液微量元素的分布模式均存在明显差异,进而表明这种微量元素分布模式对中药微量元素的研究和临床应用具有参考价值。     

微量元素与中医辩证分型

通过对两间小学639名学生进行微量元素检测及体格检查，并进行中医辩证分型，发现广州市部份小学生体内微量元素缺乏较严重，占体检总人数的62．3％，同时也存在营养不良，贫血、佝偻病，急慢性上呼吸道炎等、按中医辩证分型有肝热、脾气虚弱、肝血不足、肾气虚等，本文试从微量元素缺乏与中医辩证中找出两者之间的联系，以便于指导治疗，提高小学生的健康水平，增强体质和智力。
