4. Infrared fingerprint analysis of Syngnathus's ethanol extracts coupled with cluster analysis, principal component analysis and discriminant analysis
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2013;48(18):1540-1545
OBJECTIVE: To establish a validated infrared spectrum method coupled with cluster analysis, principal component a-nalysis and discriminant analysis for identifying different kinds of Syngnathus. METHODS: Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer was performed on the ethanol extracts from 33 samples of Syngnathus collected from different geographical locations. Similarity analysis and cluster analysis were used to establish the reference fingerprint spectra, and principal component analysis and discriminant analysis were used for identifying different kinds of Syngnathus. RESULTS: The experimental results indicated that the samples of same species had the similar characteristic peaks of infrared spectra and could be clustered together. Based on the result of principal component analysis, the absorption peaks(3010.4-3006.5 cm-1, 1745.3-1741.4 cm-1, 1467.6-1463.7 cm-1, 1417.4-1413.6 cm-1, 1168.7-1164.8 cm-1, 723.2-719.3 cm-1, 2925.5-2919.7 cm-1, 2854.2-2850.3 cm-1) were the main characteristic peaks and were used to develop the discrimination function for distinguishing different species of Syngnathus. The accuracy of the discrimination function could reach 98.75%. The established method in the experiment had a good stability, precision and reproducibility, and was a very reliable and useful method for distinguishing different species and assessment of the quality of Syngnathus. CONCLUSION: The established IR fingerprints of Syngnathus's ethanol extracts coupled with mathematical statistics theory could be applied to identify different kinds of Syngnathus. But more importantly, the research job provides a new thought for traditional Chinese medicine identification by using mathematical model.

Objective]To assess the effects and mechanism of triptolide(TPL)on cardiac remodeling in chronic heart failure (CHF)rats.[Methods]Thirty-two Wistar rats were divided into four groups of eight:Control group,isoprenaline(Iso)group,TPL group(Iso+TPL)and captopril group(Iso+Cap). CHF rat model was induced by Iso. In TPL and Cap group,TPL(20μg/kg·d)and Cap(15 mg/kg·d)were administrated to CHF rats for six weeks. Left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole(LVIDd)and left ventricular internal diameter at end-systole (LVIDs)were detected. Histopathological changes of myocardial tissues of rats were evaluated byMasson staining and immunohistochemical staining of type Ⅰcollagen. Ventricular weight/body weight ratio(VW/BW), collagen volume fraction(CVF),perivascular collagen volume area(PVCA)of myocardial tissues were calculated. With real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot,the protein and mRNA levels of phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten(PTEN)were detected.[Results]Compared to the Iso group,the levels of LVIDs,LVIDd,VW/BW,CVF and PVCA reduced in TPL and Cap group. TPL and Cap can alleviate the myocardial fibrosis in CHF rats. The expression of PTEN protein and mRNA increased markedly in the TPL or Cap treated group.[Conclusion]TPL can attenuate cardiac remodeling in Iso-induced CHF rats. The potential mechanism may be highly associated with the up-regulating of PTEN signaling pathway.
