ABSTRACT
Objective:To obtain the information of alkaloids in Evodia rutaecarpa by HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Method:Inter Sustain-C18 column (4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm) was used with 0.2% formic acid water-acetonitrile as the mobile phase for gradient elution. The column temperature was 25℃,the volume flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1,and the sample volume is 5 μL. The detection wavelength was 245 nm,and the chromatographic effluent was detected and analyzed by using both positive and negative ions. Result:According to molecular ion peaks and secondary mass spectrometry characteristic fragment ions,as well as the mass spectrometry information of reference substances and relevant literature reports,more than 40 major peaks were analyzed,and 21 alkaloids were identified from the methanol extract of E. rutaecarpa, including 10 kinds of indole alkaloids,10 kinds of quinolone alkaloids,and 1 kind of ephedrine. Main types of alkaloids in E. rutaecarpa were basically clarified. And the research found that the alkaloids have a good response mainly in the positive mode. Conclusion:Based on HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS technology, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation,mass spectrometry determination of molecular mass,pyrolysis data,literature analysis and retrieval were performed to quickly,accurately and comprehensively identify alkaloids in E. rutaecarpa, so as to provide a scientific basis for the further extraction and separation of the chemical constituents of E. rutaecarpa.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the protective effect of hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA) on anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) injury of neonatal primary cardiomyocytes, and its relationship with phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein ki-nase B/glycogen synthase kinase 3β(PI3K/Akt/GSK3β) signaling pathway. Methods Primary cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats were isolated from the rats and incubated for 48 hours. The cells were adhered to each other and then divided into five groups:control group (Con group), anoxia/reoxygenation group (A/R group),HSYA treatment group(A/R+H group),PI3K inhibitor (LY294002)treatment group(A/R+L group)and HSYA+LY294002 treat-ment group (A/R+H+L group),then to collect the supernatant fluid of each group to measure LDH.The flow cy-tometry was used to measure the apoptotic cells. The protein levels of Bcl-2,Bax,Akt,p-Akt (Ser473),GSK3β, p-GSK3β (Ser9) were evalated by Western blot. Results A/R increased LDH release,the apoptosis rate (P<0.001),and the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax (P <0.001) with the decrease of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2,p-Akt(Ser473), p-GSK3β(Ser9)(P<0.001) as compared with the control group. HSYA treatment de-creased LDH release,the apoptosis rate (P<0.001),and the expression of Bax (P<0.001) and increase the ex-pression of Bcl-2,p-Akt(Ser473),p-GSK3β(Ser9)(P<0.001). Compared with the A/R+H group,the expres-sion of Bax was increased (P<0.001),while the expression of Bcl-2, p-Akt(Ser473), p-GSK3β(Ser9)was de-creased (P<0.001) in the A/R+H+L group. Conclusions HSYA protects rats'cardiomyocytes from anoxia/reoxy-genation injury by regulating PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway.
