RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate whether the therapeutic effect of Dahuang Mudan Tang on septic acute intestinal dysfunction in sepsis ratsis related to the regulation of expression of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1). Method:Totally 100 male SD rats were injected intraperitoneally with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at a dose of 4.5 mg·kg-1 to build sepsis model. The sepsis model rats were randomly divided into five groups:model group, glutamine group (3.75 g·kg-1),low,medium, high-dose Dahuang Mudan Tang group(7.5,15,30 g·kg-1),and another 10 normal rats were selected as normal group. Seven days later,2 mL suspension (100 mg lactulose and 50 mg mannitol) was orally administrated by gavage, and 24 h urinewas collected. The ratio of lactulose to mannitol in urine (L/M) was detected by HPLC with pulsed electrochemical detection (HPLC-PED).Serum citrulline concentrationsin blood and ileum were determined by HPLC.Enzyme linked immunesorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentrations of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),intestinal fatty acid binding protein(iFABP) and D-lactic acid.Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of TREM-1,Toll-like receptors2(TLR2),Toll-like receptors 4(TLR4),myeloid cell differentiation protein(MyD88),nuclear transcription factor-κB(NF-κB).Electron microscopy was used to observe the pathological changes of intestinal mucosa injury. Result:Compared with normal group, the serum concentrations of TREM-1,TNF-α,iFABP, D-lactate; the ratio of lactulose to mannitol in urine (L/M)and the expressions of TREM-1,TLR2,TLR4,MyD88,NF-κB mRNA in model group were increased obviously(PPPPPκB mRNA,and the serum concentrations of TREM-1 and TNF-α in all medication administration groups were decreased obviously(PD-lactate, L/M, the Chiu scorein glutamine group, medium-dose Dahuang Mudan Tang group and high-dose Dahuang Mudan Tang group were decreased obviously(PPPConclusion:Dahuang Mudan Tang can effectively treat SAID in rats, and its mechanism may be realized by regulating the expression of TREM-1 and relieving intestinal inflammation of intestinal tract.
RESUMEN
Objective To study and establish the UPLC fingerprints of Lianhua Qingwen Capsules. Methods The samples were separated with a Waters ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) by linear gradient elution. The wavelength for detection was set at 239 nm; mobile phase was set at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min;the column temperature was set at 30 ℃. Results UPLC fingerprints of Lianhua Qingwen Capsules were established with 32 common peaks. 9 of 32 common peaks were identified, including neochlorogenic acid (peak No.4, source from Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Houttuyniae Herba), chlorogenic acid (peak No.6, source from Forsythiae Fructus, Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Houttuyniae Herba), cryptochlorogenic acid (peak No.8, source from Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Houttuyniae Herba), isoforsythiaside A (peak No.15, source from Forsythiae Fructus), forsythoside A (peak No.20, source from Forsythiae Fructus), quercitrin (peak No.23, source from Houttuyniae Herba), isochlorogenic acid C (peak No.24, source from Lonicerae Japonicae Flos), phillyrin (peak No.26, source from Forsythiae Fructus), glycyrrhizic acid (peak No.31, source from Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma). The similarities in 10 batches of Lianhua Qingwen Capsules samples were all above 0.96. Conclusion The method is with good precision, repeatability and stability, which can be used as a new means for the quality control of Lianhua Qingwen Capsules.
