Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To optimize the preparation technology of ethanol extracts from Centipeda minima, and investigate the anti-inflammatory activities of different extraction sites. METHODS Single factor test and response surface methodology were adopted to investigate the effects of ethanol volume fraction, extraction time, solid-liquid ratio and extraction times on the heating reflux extraction technology of total triterpenoids ethanol extract using the extraction rate of total triterpenoids of C. minima as indexes, optimize the extraction technology and carry out validation. Using dexamethasone as positive control drug, the effects of different extraction sites of C. minima (petroleum ether part, ethyl acetate part, n-butanol part, water part) on nitric oxide (NO) production in mononuclear macrophage RAW 264.7 cells of mice induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were compared; the half inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated. RESULTS The optimal extraction technology of total triterpenoids ethanol extracts of C. minima was as follows: ethanol volume fraction of 70%, solid-liquid ratio of 1∶40 (g/mL), extraction time of 2.0 h and extraction times of 3 times. The 3 times of validation tests showed that average extraction rate of total triterpenoids of C. minima was 1.134%, relative error of which with the predicted value was 0.02%. The petroleum ether part and ethyl acetate part of C. minima could inhibit the generation of NO in RAW 264.7 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide to different degrees. IC50 values of NO production were 2.44 μg/mL and 2.22 μg/mL, respectively, and both of them were lower than those of positive control drug dexamethasone (7.65 μg/mL). CONCLUSIONS The optimized preparation process of ethanol extracts from C. minima is stability and feasibility. The petroleum ether part and ethyl acetate part have obvious anti-inflammatory effects.
