Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanisms of total alkaloids of Bulbus Fritillaria Pallidiflora (TA-BFP) on pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis mice. Methods i) Bulbus Fritillaria Pallidiflora (BFP) powder was collected by heating and refluxing twice with 70.00% ethanol, and the dried concentrated sample was purified using cation-exchange and macroporous adsorbent resins to obtain TA-BFP. The total alkaloids level was detected using ultraviolet spectrophotometry and the characteristic peaks in TA-BFP were identified using the high-performance liquid chromatography-evaporative light scattering detector (HPLC-ELSD). ii) Specific pathogen-free male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the control group, model group and intervention group, with 15 mice in each group. Mice in the model group and the intervention group were treated with 80 μL silica suspension with a mass concentration of 62.5 g/L, while the control group was treated with an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution using non-exposed tracheal instillation method. On the 28th day after modeling, mice in the intervention group were given TA-BFP at a dose of 60 mg/kg body mass, and the model group and control group were given 2.00% Tween-80 solution at the same volume by gastric gavage, once per day, for 28 days. The mouse lung tissue pathology was observed, lung organ coefficient was calculated, and inflammation and fibrosis scores were assessed after the intervention period. Serum levels of mouse interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results i) The total alkaloid level of TA-BFP in the BFP powder was 50.36% after elution and purification. A total of nine alkaloid components in TA-BFP were identified by HPLC-ELSD. ii) The results of lung histopathology showed that no obvious changes of inflammation and fibrosis were identified in the lungs of mice in the control group, obvious changes of inflammation and fibrosis were identified in the lungs of mice in the model group, and the intervention group showed reduced inflammation and fibrosis in the lungs of mice compared with that of the model group. The lung organ coefficient, pulmonary inflammation score, pulmonary fibrosis score, and levels of serum IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were significantly higher in the model group than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The lung organ coefficient, pulmonary inflammation score, pulmonary fibrosis score, and levels of serum IL-1β, and TNF-α were significantly higher in the intervention group than those in the control group (all P<0.05), while the pulmonary inflammation score, pulmonary fibrosis score, and levels of serum IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were significantly lower in the intervention group than those in the model group (all P<0.05). Conclusion TA-BFP alleviates pulmonary inflammation in silicosis mice, thereby delaying the progression of pulmonary fibrosis. The mechanism may involve in inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α.
