Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacological basis of Schisandra chinensis in the treatment of allergic asthma. METHODS The common components of 10 batches of S. chinensis from different habitats were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Furthermore, the allergic asthma model was established by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin (OVA) and aluminum hydroxide for stimulation combined with atomization exitation; general behavioral observation and the contents of interferon γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and immunoglobulin E (IgE) in serum were taken as criteria for evaluating the therapeutic effect of S. chinensis from different habitats in the treatment of allergic asthma. Correlation coefficients between common peak area and efficacy evaluation index of each batch of medicinal material were analyzed through grey correlation degree and Pearson correlation analysis. RESULTS A total of 21 common components were identified in 10 batches of S. chinensis from different habitats. After administration of S. chinensis, symptoms such as shortness of breath, sneezing and curling of rats were alleviated. In addition, the content of IFN-γ was significantly increased while the contents of IL-4 and IgE in serum were distinctly decreased (P<0.01). Grey correlation analysis showed that 11 common components had high correlation coefficients with IFN-γ, IL-4 and IgE (rˉ>0.8). Pearson correlation analysis showed that 8 components were significantly positively correlated with the content of IFN-γ (P< 0.05), and 9, 8 components were significantly negatively correlated with the content of IL-4 and IgE (P<0.05). Based on the results of grey correlation degree and Pearson correlation analysis, 7 components such as peak 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 19 and 20, were highly related to S. chinensis in the treatment of allergic asthma. CONCLUSIONS Schisandrol A, schisandrin B, schisandrin C, gomisin M2, gomisin J, pregomisin and angeloylgomisin H are the potential pharmacodynamic substance basis of S. chinensis in the treatment of allergic asthma.
