Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to an antiviral Chinese medicinal compound, in particular to an anti-leukoplakia syndrome virus Chinese medicinal compound and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] White spot syndrome (WSD) caused by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is an acute viral disease of aquatic animals, with multiple transmission vectors, rapid onset and high mortality. Its outbreak has caused huge economic losses to the aquaculture industries of Penaeus vannamei, Procambarus clarkii, Chinese mitten crab and mud crab, and is one of the most severe challenges facing the global aquaculture industry. After being infected with WSSV, crustaceans have reddish color with jejunum, slow reaction to the outside world and often lie quietly at the bottom of the water. In the late stage of infection, there are white spots on the shell, and the mortality rate can generally reach 100% within 3 to 14 days after the onset of the disease. Due to the lack of acquired immunity in crustaceans, chemical drugs are currently mainly used to prevent and control WSD at home and abroad. Although the use of most chemical synthetic drugs can effectively block the outbreak of WSSV in the short term, the long-term irrational use of drugs induces a series of negative effects such as drug residues and environmental pollution, which endangers human health. Chinese herbal medicines are natural and safe, with little toxicity and side effects, low residue, and are not prone to drug resistance. They have attracted much attention in the prevention and control of aquatic animal diseases and are considered to be potential targets for replacing chemical synthetic drugs in the future. Studies have shown that the ethanol extracts of Chinese herbal medicines rhubarb (Rheumpalmatum L.) and Sophora japonica (Flossophora eimaturus) and their active ingredients rhubarb and quercetin have significant effects in anti-apoptosis, oxidative stress response, bactericidal, antiviral, improving immunity and enhancing appetite. At present, there is no research on the anti-WSSV activity of the above-mentioned Chinese herbal compound. Exploring the anti-WSSV activity of the above-mentioned Chinese herbal compound has important practical significance for blocking the outbreak of WSSV. Summary of the invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an anti-WSSV Chinese medicinal compound capable of improving the anti-WSSV activity and survival rate of aquatic animals and application thereof.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above technical problems is: an anti-white spot syndrome virus Chinese medicine compound composed of the following components: rhubarb ethanol extract, sophora japonica seed ethanol extract, quercetin and rhein.
[0005] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the rhubarb alcohol extract, the sophora japonica bud alcohol extract, quercetin and rhein is 1:1:0.05:0.02.
[0006] Furthermore, the preparation method of the rhubarb alcohol extract and the sophora japonica flower alcohol extract is as follows: take rhubarb and sophora japonica flower, dry and grind them, sieve them through a 100-mesh sieve, weigh 50g of each, add 300mL of anhydrous ethanol, place them in an ultrasonic cleaner for ultrasonic dissolution for 10 minutes, then place them in a 60°C water bath for heating for 30 minutes, repeat the above steps 3 times, add 150mL of anhydrous ethanol each time, concentrate the anhydrous ethanol extract by rotary evaporation, and finally place them in an oven for drying to obtain the rhubarb alcohol extract and the sophora japonica flower alcohol extract.
[0007] The present invention also provides application of the anti-white spot syndrome virus Chinese medicinal compound in preparing an anti-white spot syndrome virus feed additive for shrimps.
[0008] Furthermore, the amount of the Chinese medicinal compound added to the shrimp breeding water is 200 mg / L breeding water.

[0017] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] To illustrate the essence of the present invention, the anti-WSSV activity of rhubarb, sophora japonica seed ethanol extract and its effective components, emodin and quercetin, in a Chinese medicine compound was analyzed with white shrimp larvae as experimental subjects to verify its role in blocking the outbreak of WSSV. Rhubarb, sophora japonica seed, emodin, quercetin, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and anhydrous ethanol were all provided by Shanghai Aladdin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., and WSSV and white shrimp were taken from Zhejiang Marine Aquaculture Research Institute. 1. Specific embodiments
[0020] 1. Preparation of Chinese herbal compound
[0021] Take rhubarb and sophora japonica seeds, dry and grind them respectively, weigh 50g of each, add 300mL of anhydrous ethanol, place in an ultrasonic cleaner for ultrasonic dissolution for 10min, then heat in a water bath at 60℃ for 30min, repeat the above steps 3 times, and add 150mL of anhydrous ethanol each time. Take the above anhydrous ethanol extracts and perform rotary evaporation concentration, and finally place in an oven to dry to obtain rhubarb ethanol extract and sophora japonica seeds ethanol extract. Weigh the Chinese medicine compound A (rhubarb ethanol extract: rhubarb ethanol extract: sophora japonica seeds ethanol extract: quercetin = 1: 0.05: 1: 0.02) and the Chinese medicine compound B (rhubarb ethanol extract: rhubarb ethanol extract: sophora japonica seeds ethanol extract: quercetin = 1: 0.02: 1: 0.05) according to the mass ratio, mix well, use DMSO to fully dissolve, and prepare a mother solution with a final concentration of 50000mg / L, and store at 4℃ for use.
[0022] 2. Determination of WSSV infection concentration
[0023] Healthy, vigorous, and uniform shrimps were placed in a 6-well plate, with 6 mL of water per well and 10 shrimps. The concentration of WSSV was set to: 1.6 × 10 4 , 1.6×10 5 , 1.6×10 6 , 1.6×10 7 and 1.6×10 8 The experiment was repeated three times, and the survival rate of shrimp larvae was counted every 24 hours. The virus concentration of 1.6×10 6 copies / μL for subsequent infection experiments.
[0024] 3. Acute toxicity test of rhubarb alcohol extract, sophora japonica extract, quercetin, rhein and their compound
[0025] Healthy, vigorous and uniform shrimps were placed in a 6-well plate, with 6 mL of water per well and 10 shrimps. Different concentrations of rhubarb alcohol extract, sophora japonica alcohol extract, quercetin, rhein and their compound (0-300 mg / L) were set to incubate the shrimps for 72 hours. The experiment was repeated 3 times, and the survival rate of the shrimps was counted every 24 hours. The safe concentration of the above-mentioned Chinese medicine extracts and their compound was determined based on the survival rate of the shrimps.
[0026] The cumulative survival rate of shrimp larvae was Figure 1 As shown. When the alcohol extract of rhubarb in aquaculture water ( Figure 1 A) Rhein Figure 1 B) Quercetin ( Figure 1 C), Sophora japonica bud ethanol extract ( Figure 1 D) Compound A( Figure 1 E) and compound B( Figure 1F) When the concentrations were 100 mg / L, 2 mg / L, 40 mg / L, 200 mg / L, 200 mg / L and below 200 mg / L, the cumulative survival rate of shrimp larvae was not significantly different from that of the control group and no precipitation was observed. Therefore, it is believed that the ethanol extract of rhubarb (100 mg / L), the ethanol extract of sophora japonica (200 mg / L), quercetin (40 mg / L), rhein (2 mg / L), compound A (200 mg / L) and compound B (200 mg / L) are safe for shrimp larvae and can be used in subsequent experiments.

[0032] (1) Evaluation of the anti-WSSV activity of rhubarb ethanol extract, sophora japonica bud ethanol extract, quercetin, rhein and their combination
[0033] Rheum officinale ethanol extract (100 mg / L), Sophora japonica bud ethanol extract (200 mg / L), quercetin (40 mg / L), rhein (2 mg / L), compound A (200 mg / L), compound B (200 mg / L) and WSSV (1.6×10 6 After mixing, the shrimps were incubated in a 6-well plate for 72 h. DMSO (V DMSO / V 水=0.4‰) and WSSV were incubated for 72 hours as a control. The mortality of the shrimp was counted every 24 hours during the experiment, and the shrimp were collected at 72 hours to detect the number of virus copies.
[0034] The results are as follows Figure 2 As shown in the results, the above Chinese herbal extracts and their compound formulas can effectively inhibit the virus replication in the diseased shrimp and improve the survival rate of the diseased shrimp. Among them, all the shrimps in the virus group died at 72 hours. Rhubarb ethanol extract, Sophora japonica ethanol extract, quercetin, emodin, compound A, and compound B can increase the cumulative survival rate of the diseased shrimp within 72 hours to 36%, 26%, 25%, 35%, 58%, and 46%, respectively. Figure 2 AG). The data also showed that the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound formulas had an inhibitory effect on the replication of the WSSV genome in shrimp larvae, and the inhibition rates at 72 hours were 63% (rhubarb ethanol extract), 50% (sophora japonica bud ethanol extract), 87% (quercetin), 90% (rhubarb), 91% (Chinese herbal compound formula A), and 84% (Chinese herbal compound formula B). In summary, the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound formulas all had good anti-WSSV activity, among which compound Chinese herbal formula A had the best antiviral activity and had the greatest potential to be used to prevent and control WSSV outbreaks.
[0035] (2) Experiment on pre-incubation of shrimp larvae with alcohol extract of rhubarb, alcohol extract of sophora japonica, quercetin, rhein and their combination
[0036] To further evaluate the anti-WSSV activity of rhubarb ethanol extract, sophora japonica extract, quercetin, rhein and their compound, a pre-incubation experiment was conducted. Rhubarb ethanol extract (100 mg / L), sophora japonica extract (200 mg / L), quercetin (40 mg / L), rhein (2 mg / L), compound A (200 mg / L) and compound B (200 mg / L) were pre-incubated with shrimp in 6-well plates for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively. The original culture water was then discarded and washed three times with new culture water and replaced with WSSV-containing culture water (1.6 × 10 6 The shrimp were incubated with water containing 100 copies / μL for 72 hours. The experiment was repeated three times, and the survival of the shrimp was recorded every 24 hours. The shrimp were collected at 72 hours to detect the number of virus copies.
[0037] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in the figure, after shrimps were pretreated with Chinese herbal extracts and their compound for different time periods and then infected with WSSV, their cumulative mortality and viral genome copy levels within 72 hours were reduced. Among them, although quercetin pre-incubation of shrimps can reduce the level of viral replication in their bodies (maximum inhibition rate of 18%) and increase their cumulative survival rate (maximum 12%), the difference was not significant compared with the control group ( Figure 3 AB). In addition, the ethanol extract of Sophora japonica seed ( Figure 3 CD), rhein ( Figure 3EF), Rheum officinale ethanol extract ( Figure 3 Pre-incubation of shrimp with herbal compound A (Figure GH) and herbal compound B (Figure KL) for 72 hours can significantly inhibit the virus replication in the shrimp, with inhibition rates of 73%, 48%, 69%, and 61%, respectively. The corresponding cumulative survival rates of diseased shrimp were increased by 34%, 55%, 21%, and 36%, respectively. In addition, we also found that herbal compound A had the strongest anti-WSSV ability when pre-treated shrimp for 72 hours, with the cumulative survival rate of diseased shrimp increased by 44%, and the inhibition rate of viral genome replication in the body was 87% ( Figure 3 IJ). Therefore, the above-mentioned Chinese medicine compound A has the best effect in preventing WSSV outbreak.
[0038] (3) The therapeutic effects of rhubarb ethanol extract, sophora japonica bud ethanol extract, quercetin, rhein and their compound on diseased shrimp
[0039] The experiment was conducted in a 6-well plate, and the sick shrimp were obtained as described above. The sick shrimp were treated in a 6-well plate with aquaculture water containing only rhubarb ethanol extract (100 mg / L), sophora japonica ethanol extract (200 mg / L), quercetin (40 mg / L), rhein (2 mg / L) and its compound A (200 mg / L), and compound B (200 mg / L). The experiment set up a continuous dressing group and a discontinuous dressing group. The continuous dressing group replaced new aquaculture water and added new Chinese medicine compound every 24 hours, and the discontinuous dressing group did not do any treatment during the treatment period. The experiment was designed with 3 parallels, and the survival rate of sick shrimp was recorded every 24 hours, and the surviving sick shrimp were collected to detect the number of virus copies.
[0040] The results are as follows Figure 4 As shown in Figure 2, all shrimp infected with WSSV died on the third day. Figure 4 A), Sophora japonica bud ethanol extract ( Figure 4 B) Quercetin ( Figure 4 C) Rhein Figure 4 D) and its compound A( Figure 4 E), Compound B ( Figure 4 F) The diseased shrimps after treatment were still alive on the 3rd day, and their cumulative survival rates were 43%, 33%, 35%, 14%, 43%, and 48%, respectively, and all died on the 5th day after infection. The therapeutic effect of the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound prescriptions on the diseased shrimps was further enhanced by continuously changing the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound prescriptions, because on the 6th day, the cumulative survival rates of the diseased shrimps treated with rhubarb ethanol extract, sophora japonica bud ethanol extract, compound Chinese herbal medicine A and B were 3%, 5%, 15%, and 9%, respectively. In summary, the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound prescriptions all have good therapeutic effects on diseased shrimps, among which compound Chinese herbal medicine A has the best therapeutic effect.
[0041] (4) Effects of rhubarb extract, sophora japonica extract, quercetin, rhein and their combination on the horizontal transmission of WSSV
[0042] Horizontal transmission is the main cause of large-scale WSSV outbreaks. The following is an evaluation of the effects of Chinese herbal extracts and their compound on the horizontal transmission of WSSV. 6 The donor diseased shrimps were obtained by incubating healthy and uniform shrimp larvae with 100 copies / μL) for 24 hours, and healthy shrimp larvae were used as recipient shrimps. Experimental group: The donor and recipient shrimps were co-cultured in containers containing rhubarb ethanol extract (100 mg / L), sophora japonica ethanol extract (200 mg / L), quercetin (40 mg / L), rhein (2 mg / L) and its compound A (200 mg / L) and compound B (200 mg / L) for 72 hours. During the culture period, the donor and recipient shrimps were separated by gauze to ensure no direct contact. Control group: The donor and recipient shrimps were cultured in a container containing only DMSO (V DMSO / V 养殖水 =0.4‰) in a container and cultured for 72 hours. The culture method was the same as that of the experimental group. After the experiment, the recipient shrimp was taken to detect the number of virus copies.
[0043] The results are as follows Figure 5 As shown in Figure 2, the above-mentioned Chinese herbal extracts and their compound formulas can effectively inhibit the horizontal transmission of WSSV but cannot completely block it ( Figure 5 Among them, rhein ( Figure 5 D), Sophora japonica bud ethanol extract ( Figure 5 B) Chinese medicine compound A( Figure 5 E) and B( Figure 5 F) can significantly reduce the horizontal transmission of WSSV, and their inhibition rates on WSSV replication at 72h are 36%, 80%, 84%, and 59%, respectively. In addition, the maximum inhibition rate of rhubarb ethanol extract on WSSV replication is 49%, which is not significantly different from the control group ( Figure 5 A), quercetin can significantly inhibit the horizontal spread of WSSV in the early stage of WSSV infection, with an inhibition rate of 54% ( Figure 5 C). The above results show that the above-mentioned Chinese medicine compound A can most effectively inhibit the horizontal transmission of WSSV and is more suitable for preventing and controlling the outbreak of WSSV.
