Abstract:
Objective To analyze the chemical components of the ethanol-soluble portion of Liuwei Dihuang Decoction,and to explore its mechanism in kidney-Yin deficiency of mice.Methods Bioactive components were analyzed by HPLC,the method was used at Hypersile C1s column(4.6 mm × 250 mm,5 μm),the mobile phase consisted of methanol-water (27 ∶ 73),the detective wavelength was 236 nm,the flow rate was 1.0 mL · min-1,the column temperature was 25 ℃.The mice were divided randomly into three groups (n =10):blank group,model group,experimental group.The mice were gavaged with oral administration of corresponding medicines (9.75 g · kg-1)for nine weeks.At time 6 d after administration,in addition to that the normal group was given distilled water,the other groups were gavaged with hydrocortisone injection per day according to 50 mg · kg-1 body weight for 4 d to establish the kidney Yin deficiency mice model.The contents of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP),cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) were determined by ELISA and the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH),estradiol (E2),testosterone (T) were determined by radioimmunoassay after administration.Results The linear range of morroniside,sweroside,paeoniflorin and loganin were 0.24-2.40 μg (r=0.999 6),0.14-1.38 μg(r =0.999 1),0.12-1.20 μg(r =0.999 1),0.24-2.40 μg(r =0.999 4) respectively.The recovery and relative standard deviation of them were (100.22 ± 1.80) %,(100.83 ± 1.94) %,(102.40 ± 1.47) %,(101.40 ± 1.50) %,and RSD were 1.80%,1.92%,1.44%,1.50%.The average content of morroniside,sweroside,paeoniflorin and loganin in Liuwei Dihuang Decoction water extract-alcohol soluble parts were calculate in terms of material were 0.20%,0.02%,0.06%,0.13%.The plasma level of cAMP in model group and experimental group were (8.20 ±0.63),(6.90 ±0.15) nmol · L-1 with significant different (P <0.01).The serum contents of FSH,E2,T in model group and experimental group were(0.54 ±0.10),(0.88 ±0.04)mU · mL-1;(13.93 ± 0.29),(15.48 ± 0.43) pg · mL-1;(2.23 ± 0.14),(5.63 ± 0.48) ng · mL-1 with significant different (P < 0.01).Conclusion It is found that ethanol-soluble portion might be one of the bioactive component of Liuwei Dihaung Decoction to improve kidney Yin deficiency,and it mainly contains loganin,morroniside,sweroside and paeoniflorin.Its function mechanism of tonifying kidney may be related to the regulation of cAMP content and the levels of hormones in the HPG axis.
