Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo find out the metabolite profile of rats' myocardial tissue of cardiac blood stasis syndrome (CBSS), and to analyze the metabolic pathway of CBSS rats' myocardial tissue by observing the changes of phenotypes intervened by Yangxin Tongmai Recipe (YTR).
METHODSAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) rat model of CBSS was prepared by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. Meanwhile, the model was interfered with YTR. The metabolites of rats' myocardial tissue were detected in the model group, the YTR group, the sham-operation group, and the blank control group using GC-MS (8 rats in each group). Changes of metabolite contents were analyzed among different groups using principal component analysis (PCA) and least-square analysis.
RESULTSAs for PCA: The results of PCA showed that principal component integral (PCI) of the four groups was mainly distributed in the three regions of oval scatterplot. The factor loading gram showed that contents of glycine, fumaric acid, malic acid, glutamic acid, glucose, phosphoric acid, galactopyranose, lysine were changed in the model group. Analysis of partial least square method: PLS regression model showed that obvious linear correlation existed between the model group and the YTR group, which proved the model was reasonably established. The drug intervention was highly positively correlated with glycine, malic acid, glutamic acid, glucose, highly correlated with urea and butanedioic acid, but negatively correlated with lysine. According to VIP value, each variable was closely correlated with the drug intervention in sequence as malic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, glucose, fumaric acid, urea, galactose, tyrosine, lactic acid, and alanine. Results of variability analysis: Obvious changed variability analysis of metabolite difference showed that 10 metabolites such as glycine, etc. obviously decreased in the model group, showing significant difference when compared with the normal group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, contents of glycine, fumaric acid, malic acid, glutamic acid, glucose, tyrosine,urea, lactic acid, and alanine, etc. obviously increased after drug intervention (P<0.01). Of them, the increment of malic acid, glumatic acid, tyrosine, and urea was less, showing significant difference when compared with that of the normal group. The mean of lysine was slightly lowered after drug intervention, but with insignificant difference when compared with that of the model group. AMI rats of CBSS was closely correlated with myocardial metabolites such as malic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, glucose, fumaric acid, urea, galactopyranose, lactic acid, alanine, and tyrosine, etc.
CONCLUSIONSThe metabolite profile of rats' myocardial tissue showed AMI rat model of CBSS was closely correlated with post-hypoxia glucose metabolism disorder. YTR could effectively intervene this process.
