Statistical software Excel 2019, Clementine 12.0 and SPSS 21.0 were used to conduct statistical analysis of conforming Chinese patent medicine prescriptions by means of frequency statistics, association rule analysis and cluster analysis. Finally, a total of 185 Chinese patent medicine prescriptions containing Jujubea Fructus were included in this study, involving 402 Chinese medicines and 28 kinds of high frequency Chinese medicines, with Jujubea Fructus, Poria, Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and Codonopsis Radix as the top five. The deficiency-nourishing drugs were in the most common efficacy classification, mainly sweet, bitter and pungent, with most medicine properties of warm and gentle, main meridians of spleen lung and stomach, dosage forms of pills, granules and tablets, and main indications of splenic diseases. Fifteen drug combinations were obtained in association rule analysis. Eleven drug combinations were obtained by association rule analysis of Chinese patent medicine containing Jujubea Fructus in the treatment of splenic diseases, and the drugs were divided into two categories by cluster analysis. According to the above analysis, it is found that the Chinese patent medicine prescriptions containing Jujubea Fructus are mainly composed of deficiency-nourishing drugs, mostly compatible with drugs of sweet, bitter and pungent flavors, warm and gentle properties, and spleen, lung, and stomach meridians in the treatment of splenic diseases, with Sijunzi Decoction as the main drug. This study provides guidance for modern clinical application and development of Jujubea Fructus.

Objective:To determine whether glutathione dehydrogenase (GLDH), purine nucleotide phosphorylase (PNP), α-glutathione-S-transferase (α-GST), and arginase 1 (Arg1) can be used as the early biomarkers of drug-induced liver injury by comparing the changes of traditional biomarkers alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin (TBIL) and potential biomarkers GLDH, PNP, α-GST and Arg1 in acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury model rats. Method:The 48 rats were randomly divided into two groups:blank group and model group. 24 rats in each group, half male and half female. The model group received 1 250 mg·kg-1 APAP solution by intragastric administration to establish the drug-induced liver injury. 6 rats (half male and half female) were randomly selected from each group at 3, 6,12 and 24 h after APAP was given to the model group, to detect the levels of ALT, AST, ALP, TBIL, GLDH, PNP, α-GST, Arg1 in serum and levels of GLDH, PNP, α-GST, Arg1 in liver tissue homogenate at each time point Histopathological changes of liver tissues were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Result:As compared with the blank group, the levels of ALT, AST, ALP, TBIL, GLDH, PNP, α-GST and Arg1 in serum and liver homogenates were significantly increased in model group(PPα-GST and Arg1 levels in serum and liver tissues of rats in the model group were increased earlier and more significantly than ALT and AST levels. Conclusion:GLDH, PNP, α-GST and Arg1 can be used as biomarkers for early detection of drug-induced liver injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To replicate the animal model of liver injury in rats by using carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), investigate the dynamic changes of early biomarkers of liver injury, namely glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH), purine nucleotide phosphorylase(PNP), α-dynamic changes of glutathione-S-transferase (α-GST) and arginase 1(Arg1), and provide experimental evidence for early detection of acute liver injury. Method:Forty-eight Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group and a model group. The model group was intraperitoneally injected with 10 mL·kg-1 10% CCl4 olive oil solution, fasting but except water. Animals were sacrificed at 3, 6, 12, and 24 h. The serum liver function alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), bilirubin (TBIL), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels, α-GST, Arg1, GLDH, PNP levels, and liver homogenate superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were then detected. Result:As compared with blank group, the levels of ALT, AST, TBIL, α-GST, Arg1, GLDH, PNP and MDA were increased significantly 3 h after administration, and SOD was decreased significantly(Pα-GST, ARG-, GLDH, TBIL, ALP and MDA were increased significantly, while GSH and SOD were decreased significantly (PPα-GST, Arg1, TBIL, ALP and MDA were significantly increased, while GSH and SOD were significantly decreased (PConclusion:α-GST, Arg1, GLDH and PNP have better sensitivity than traditional liver function test indicators, and can be used for early detection of liver injury induced by CCl4 in rats.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the dynamic changes of the biomarkers of alcoholic liver injury, including glutamate dehydrogenase(GLDH), α-glutathione-S-transferase(α-GST), purine nucleotide phosphorylase(PNP), and arginine enzyme 1(Arg1), and clarify whether these indexes can be used as early diagnostic biomarkers for alcoholic liver injury. Method:48 Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group and a model group, 24 rats in each group, half male and half female. After fasting but except water for 7 h, 50% ethanol/10 mL·kg-1 was given to the model group by intragastric administration and the same volume of normal saline was administered to the blank group. After 1 h, 50% ethanol was again given for once by intragastric administration according to the previous dosage. In the blank group, the same volume of normal saline was administered. After modeling and administration for 6 d, acute alcoholic liver injury model was established. 3 h after the last intragastric administration of alcohol at day 2, 3, 4, 6, six rats (half male and half female) in each group were randomly selected. All the animals were sacrificed to determine the aspartate aminotransferase(AST), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), bilirubin(TBIL), GLDH, α-GST, PNP, and Arg1 levels. Result:As compared with the blank group, the levels of ALT, AST, ALP, TBIL, GLDH, PNP, α-GST and Arg1 in the model group were significantly different (Pα-GST and Arg1 levels were increased earlier and more significantly than ALT and AST levels. Conclusion:GLDH, PNP, α-GST and Arg1 can be used as biomarkers for early detection of alcoholic liver injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the protective effect of Fuzheng Quxie prescription on liver injury by influencing the expressions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, apoptosis factor (Fas), apoptosis factor ligand (FasL), and macrophages (CD68) in the liver tissues of concanavalin A(ConA) model mice. Method:The sixty mice were randomly divided into normal group, model group,bicyclol group (62.5 mg·kg-1), and low, medium and high-dose Fuzheng Quxie prescription groups(50.3,67.0,83.8 g·kg-1). The normal group and the model group were given the equal volume of pure water for 7 d. They were fasted for 12 hours before the last administration. At 2nd hour after the last administration, phosphate buffer(PBS) was injected into the caudal vein of the normal group, and ConA (20 mg·kg-1) was injected into the caudal vein of the other groups for modeling. The animals were put to death six hours later after the injection, and the expressions of TNF-α, Fas, FasL and CD68 in liver tissues were observed by immunohistochemistry. Result:Compared with normal group, the expressions of TNF-α, Fas, FasL and CD68 in the liver tissues of the model group were significantly increased(Pα, FasL and CD68 in liver tissues of the bicyclol group were significantly decreased compared with the model group(Pα, FasL and CD68 in liver tissues were significantly decreased in medium and high-dose Fuzheng Quxie prescription groups (PPConclusion:Fuzheng Quxie prescription can effectively reduce the apoptosis of liver cells in ConA model mice by inhibiting Kupffer cells and Fas/FasL system activation.
