Preliminary Study on Serum Pharmacochemistry of Gentiana rhodantha / 医药导报

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the bioactive constituents of Gentiana rhodantha for its serum pharmacochemistry research.Methods The blood migrating constituents of Gentiana rhodantha were determined by comparing the HPLC fingerprints of the aqueous extracts,drug contained serum and blank serum.Results Twenty compounds were detected in drug contained serum,four among which were original constituents of Gentiana rhodantha,the rest might be metabolites of the original ingredients.Conclusion These twenty constituents absorbed in blood could be the bioactive components of Gentiana rhodantha.Further studies will be useful to clarify the bioactive constituents and action mechanisms of Gentiana rhodantha.
