Objective To explore the endogenesis metabolizer character of kidney-yang insufficiency syndrome model rats caused by hydrocortisoni natrii succinas with metabolomics technology. Methods Twenty four Sprague-Dawley(SD)male rats were divided randomly into a normal group, a kidney-yang insufficiency model group, and a oral administration group, eight rats in each group. After producing kidney-yang insufficiency model by injecting hydrocortisoni natrii succinas intramuscularly, oral administration group rats were administered orally with white prepared lateral root of aconite every day for two weeks. After twenty-four hour the last oral administration, the blood plasm were prepared and used for testing endogenesis metabolism with the liquid phase color spectrum-mass spectra (LC/MS) metabolomics technology. Results Apices shape change of lysophosphatidyl choline (LPC) and lysophosphatidyl ethanolamine(LPE) and 468.4m/z unbeknown chemical compound of normal rats were distinct from those of model rats. Above-mentioned chemical compound as chief material symbols of kidney-yang insufficiency syndrome might be farther studied. Conclusion Finding out differential symbol from endogenesis metabolizer with metabolomics technology was redounded to deep exploring the biology essence of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome.
