摘要:
目的 筛选黄芪皂苷Ⅰ(ASⅠ)与毛蕊异黄酮(CY)抗胆汁淤积性肝纤维化最佳配伍剂量并进行验证。 方法 采用3,5-二乙氧基羰基-1,4-二氢-2,4,6-三甲基吡啶(DDC)饮食诱导建立小鼠肝纤维化模型,以黄芪中皂苷成分ASⅠ和黄酮类成分CY为研究对象,运用均匀设计法筛选最佳配比;均匀设计实验选用80只C57/BL6J雄性小鼠,按随机数字表法分为Ctrl组(正常组,n=8)、DDC组(模型组,n=8)、TAS组(n=8)、均匀设计(JY)A~F组(每组n=8)、OCA组(n=8);经多元回归分析,建立最优回归方程,获得潜在最佳剂量配比。进一步比较均匀设计实验中药效最优组及多元回归方程拟合的最佳剂量组药效,完成体内药效验证实验。计量资料多组间比较采用单因素方差分析,方差齐性检验采用Levene检验,若方差齐,采用LSD-t检验进行两两比较;若方差不齐,采用Dunnett T3检验。 结果 在均匀设计方案中,JYB组(3.125 mg/kg ASⅠ与50 mg/kg CY)可显著降低DDC诱导的胆汁淤积性肝纤维化小鼠血清丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)、天冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)、碱性磷酸酶(ALP)、总胆汁酸(TBA)、总胆红素(TBil)和间接胆红素(IBil)水平(P值均<0.05),并可降低肝组织羟脯氨酸(Hyp)含量(P<0.01)、胶原面积半定量值(P<0.001)以及平滑肌肌动蛋白α-2基因(Acta2)、Ⅰ型胶原蛋白α1链(Col1a1)、细胞角蛋白7(Ck7)、细胞角蛋白19(Ck19)、表皮生长因子样激素受体1(Adgre1)、Toll样受体4(TLR4)、肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)、趋化因子配体5(CCL5)的mRNA表达水平(P值均<0.05)。回归方程提示,50 mg/kg ASⅠ与50 mg/kgCY是潜在最佳配伍(即配伍P1组)。验证实验表明,配伍P1组仅对DDC小鼠血清AST、IBil水平及肝组织Hyp含量有显著改善(P值均<0.05),对肝组织胶原沉积、Acta2、Ck7、Ck19、Adgre1、CCL5的mRNA表达水平无显著影响(P值均>0.05);而JYB组对小鼠血清ALP、ALT、AST、TBA、TBil、IBil水平,肝组织胶原沉积及Hyp含量,Acta2、Col1a1、Ck7、Ck19、Adgre1、TLR4、TNF-α、CCL5的mRNA表达水平均有显著改善(P值均<0.05)。 结论 3.125 mg/kgASⅠ与50 mg/kg CY组合可显著改善DDC小鼠肝纤维化,疗效与黄芪总皂苷相当,且在改善血清ALP、TBA水平方面较ASⅠ和CY单独给药有更显著的调控作用。 -

Abstract:Objective To identify and validate the optimal compatibility dosage of astragaloside Ⅰ (ASⅠ) and calycosin (CY) in the treatment of cholestatic liver fibrosis. Methods A 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine (DDC) diet was used to establish a mouse model of liver fibrosis, and the uniform design method was used to identify the optimal combination ratio of the saponin component ASⅠ and the flavonoid component CY in Astragalus membranaceus. In the uniform design experiment, 80 male C57/BL6J mice were divided into normal group, model group, total astragalosides (TAS) group, groups A — F with a uniform design, and obeticholic acid (OCA) group using a random number table, with 8 mice in each group. The multiple regression analysis was used to establish the optimal regression equation and obtain the potential optimal combination ratio. The in vivo efficacy of the empirically optimal combination identified in the uniform design and the optimal dose combination predicted by the regression equation were compared for validation. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups; the Levene test was used to determine the homogeneity of variance, and the least significant difference t-test was used for comparison of data with homogeneity of variance between two groups, while the Dunnett T3 test was used for comparison of data with heterogeneity of variance. Results In the uniform design regimen, the JYB combination (3.125 mg/kg ASI+50 mg/kg CY) significantly reduced the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bile acid (TBA), total bilirubin (TBil), and indirect bilirubin (IBil) in mice with DDC-induced cholestatic liver fibrosis (all P<0.05), and it also reduced hepatic Hyp content (P<0.01), semi-quantified collagen deposition area (P<0.001), and the mRNA expression levels of Acta2, Col1a1, Ck7, Ck19, Adgre1, TLR4, TNF-α, and CCL5 in liver tissue (all P<0.05). The regression equation showed that 50 mg/kg ASⅠ+50 mg/kg CY was the potential optimal combination, which was named as P1 combination. However, subsequent validation experiments showed that P1 combination only significantly improved the serum levels of AST and IBil and hepatic Hyp content in DDC mice (all P<0.05), with no significant impact on hepatic collagen deposition and the mRNA expression levels of Acta2, Ck7, Ck19, Adgre1, and CCL5 (all P>0.05). In contrast, the JYB combination significantly improved the serum levels of ALP, ALT, AST, TBA, TBil, and IBil, hepatic collagen deposition, hepatic Hyp content, and the mRNA expression levels of Acta2, Col1a1, Ck7, Ck19, Adgre1, TLR4, TNF-α, and CCL5 (all P<0.05). Conclusion This study shows that the JYB combination (3.125 mg/kg ASⅠ+50 mg/kg CY) can significantly alleviate DDC-induced liver fibrosis, with comparable efficacy to total saponins from Astragalus membranaceus, and compared with ASⅠ or CY administered alone, the JYB combination has a significantly better regulatory effect on the serum levels of ALP and TBA. -
