Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of medical technology, and in particular to an HPLC method for distinguishing leeches and their closely related counterfeit products and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The traditional Chinese medicine leech comes from the dried body of Whitmaniapigra Whitman, Hirudonipponica Whitman or Whitmania acranulata Whitman, which are animals of the Hirudinidae family. It has the effects of breaking blood, promoting menstruation, removing blood stasis and eliminating symptoms. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that leeches have multiple effects such as anticoagulation, antithrombosis, anti-atherosclerosis, antiplatelet aggregation, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, improving blood rheology, and protecting against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Although hirudin is widely considered to be the anticoagulant component of leeches, leeches also include chemical components such as protein peptides, pteridines, glycolipids, carboxylates, and free amino acids. In recent years, the antiplatelet properties of organosulfur compounds have attracted more and more attention. The pteridine compounds isolated and identified from leeches have similar sulfur structures to antiplatelet drugs including ticlopidine, clopidogrel and ticagrelor, and it is speculated that this type of compound is a potential active substance.

[0003] There are more than 680 species of leeches distributed all over the world, and more than 100 species in China. There are only three legal origins of Chinese medicinal leeches, namely leeches, leeches, and willow leaf leeches. In recent years, the market demand for Chinese medicinal leeches has increased, and its price has increased year by year and is in short supply, so counterfeit products are common. The main adulterated leeches include Philippine cattle leeches (Poecilobdella manillensis Lesson), smooth golden leeches (Whitmania laevis Baird), rod-patterned cattle leeches (Poecilobdellajavanica Wahlberg) and Japanese leeches (Mimobdellajaponica Blanchard), etc., resulting in uneven quality of commercially available leech medicinal materials, decoction pieces and preparations, which seriously affects clinical efficacy.

[0004] Although the original animals of leeches, leeches, willow-leaf leeches, and closely related counterfeit products such as Philippine cattle leeches, smooth golden line leeches, rod-patterned cattle leeches, and Japanese leeches can be distinguished morphologically, leeches in traditional Chinese medicine have a variety of medicinal forms, and the decoction pieces are dried leech segments, and leech preparations are mostly powders, which make it difficult to observe morphological characteristics and determine the origin. The thin-layer identification method included in the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" (2020 edition) cannot effectively distinguish leeches and leeches and their closely related counterfeit products. In addition, some reports use molecular identification, but this method uses micro-sampling, samples are easily contaminated, and errors are prone to operation, which may result in false positive or false negative results.

[0005] The characteristic spectrum of traditional Chinese medicine is a method to characterize the chemical components of traditional Chinese medicine through modern analytical techniques (such as chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, etc.). It can reflect the various characteristic chemical components in traditional Chinese medicine and provide comprehensive and rich information. Therefore, it is often used in the quality control research of traditional Chinese medicine. This method can be used to identify the authenticity of traditional Chinese medicines and traditional Chinese medicine preparations, and ensure the stability, safety and effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine. In the early stage, there have been patents and literature reports on the use of characteristic spectra / fingerprints to control the quality of leech or leech medicinal materials, but the methods are complex, with high requirements for detection instruments and chromatographic columns, and the sample preparation steps are cumbersome, which is not conducive to the rapid and easy popularization of the detection method; in addition, some reports use non-specific indicator components such as xanthine, hypoxanthine, free amino acids, amber acid or sodium succinate as quality control indicators for leech medicinal materials. The methods lack specificity and are difficult to accurately and comprehensively reflect the quality of medicinal materials; in recent years, important indicator components of leech medicinal materials, hirudinamines and nucleosides, have received increasing attention. Although there are reports on the determination of related component contents and characteristic spectra, the lack of comparative studies on common closely related counterfeit products on the market has limited the identification effect of the method, and the established method has high requirements for instruments and equipment and lacks universality.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field to develop an HPLC detection method that can accurately distinguish the original species of leeches and leeches and their closely related mixed and counterfeit products, and is easy to operate, stable and reproducible, so as to strengthen the quality control of leech medicinal materials, prevent the large-scale circulation of mixed and counterfeit products, and ensure clinical efficacy.

[0205] Sample preparation method 3: Take about 0.5 g of leech medicinal material sample powder (passed through No. 3 sieve), accurately weigh, place in a 50 mL stoppered conical flask, add 10 mL of 50% methanol, stopper, weigh, ultrasonically treat (power 250 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 min, cool, weigh again, make up the lost weight with 50% methanol, shake well, centrifuge, and take the supernatant.

[0206] 2.2 Preparation of reference solution

[0207] Reference solution 1: Accurately weigh appropriate amounts of hirudinamine A, hirudinamine B, and hirudinamine C, dilute with 50% methanol to make a mixed reference solution containing 31.8 μg of hirudinamine A, 31.2 μg of hirudinamine B, and 30.6 μg of hirudinamine C per 1 mL, respectively, and place at 4°C for use in optimizing chromatographic conditions.

[0208] Reference solution 2: Accurately weigh appropriate amounts of SZ-1, hirudinamine A, hirudinamine B, hirudinamine C, and inosine, make up to volume with 50% methanol and dilute to make a mixed reference solution containing 31.0 μg of SZ-1, 31.2 μg of hirudinamine A, 30.6 μg of hirudinamine B, 30.0 μg of hirudinamine C, and 33.6 μg of inosine per 1 mL, respectively. Keep at 4°C for use in the detection of multiple batches of samples.

[0209] The structural formulas of hirudinamine A, hirudinamine B, hirudinamine C, SZ-1, inosine, mylodellasulfide B, and Poecilobdellasulfide B are as follows:

[0210]

[0211] SZ-1 is a green solid. HR-ESI-MS gives a quasi-molecular ion peak of m / z 357.0328 [M+H]+, with a calculated value of 357.0327. The inferred molecular formula is C 12 H 12 N4O5S2, degree of unsaturation is 9.

[0212] exist 1 In the H-NMR (DMSO-d6, 600MHz) spectrum, two active hydrogen signal peaks are shown [δ H 6.27 (1H, brs), δ H 5.11 (1H, brs)], a hydrogen signal of an oxygen-containing methine [δ H 5.68 (1H, t, J = 5.8 Hz, 13-OH], a hydrogen signal of an oxygen-containing methylene group [δ H 3.65 (1H, d, J = 5.7 Hz, 14-OH)], and two methyl characteristic signal peaks [δ H 3.26(3H,s,H-10), 3.15(3H,s,H-12)].

[0213] exist 13 There are 12 carbon signals in the C-NMR (DMSO-d6, 150 MHz) spectrum. Combined with HSQC spectrum analysis, [δ C 161.9(C-2),δ C 153.7 (C-4)] are two keto carbonyl signal peaks, [125.3 (C-4a), 137.5 (C-5a), 128.8 (C-6), 153.2 (C-7), 141.6 (C-8a), δ C 157.7 (C-9a)] are 6 unsaturated carbon signals. The signals of 2 hydroxyl-substituted methine carbons and methylene carbons are [δ C 67.1(C-13), δ C 66.9 (C-14)]. The remaining two carbon signals are attributed to two methyl groups [δ C 27.8 (C-10), 40.2 (C-12)], these hydrogen and carbon signals are assigned in Table 1. The above information is similar to the compound (R)-hirudonucleodisulfide B in the literature, which is speculated to be a pteridine derivative. The main difference between them is that the nitrogen atom at the 3rd position of this compound is substituted by a methyl group, and the sulfur atom at the 11th position is a sulfinyl group. The chemical shifts of the two methyl groups substituted at the 3rd and 11th positions [δ H 3.26 (3H, s, H-10), 3.15 (3H, s, H-12)] also indirectly confirmed this.

[0214] 2D-NMR spectroscopy also provided some evidence for the structure of the compound. 1 H- 1 The crossover signals H-13 / H2-14 in the H COSY spectrum showed the presence of C13-C14 (vicinal diol) structure fragments. The related signals of H-10 / C-2 / C-4, H-12 / C-6, H-13 / C-6, and H-14 / C-7 in the HMBC spectrum verified the methyl substitution of N-3, the sulfinyl substitution of C-6, and the vicinal diol substitution of C-7, respectively.

[0215] In addition, the characteristic signal peaks in the IR spectrum such as amino (3239cm -1 ), methyl (2921cm -1 ), carbonyl (1728cm -1 ), carbon-nitrogen double bond (1668cm -1 ), sulfinyl (1594cm -1 ), double bond (1545cm -1 ) was similar to Whitmanine B and (R)-hirudonucleodisulfide B. Therefore, the structure of the compound was determined and named SZ-1.

[0233]

[0234] Investigation of different acid water as mobile phase:

[0235] The reference solution 1 and the test solution prepared by method 3 were used to investigate different acid waters in the mobile phase by method 20, mainly 0.05% formic acid water, 0.05% acetic acid water and 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid water.

[0236] 3. Results of investigation on HPLC chromatographic conditions

[0237] The test sample was prepared according to Preparation Method 1 and eluted isocratically according to HPLC chromatographic conditions Method 1. It was found that there was no chromatographic peak of hirudinamine A within the analysis time, and the response value of the chromatographic peak was low. Figure 1 Therefore, the sample preparation method 2 was used and the analysis time was extended (method 2) for detection. Hirudinamine A, B, and C all showed peaks, but the retention time of hirudinamine C was too early (5min) and was easily affected by the solvent peak. The detection results of different varieties of leeches are shown in Figure 2 Therefore, the gradient elution was adjusted and the analysis was performed using method 3. The response values ​​of hirudinamine A, B, and C were relatively low, which was presumed to be due to the inappropriate detection wavelength. The detection results of different leech species are shown in Figure 2. Figure 3 shown.

[0238] Method 4 and method 5 are both gradient elution, and the detection wavelength is changed to the maximum ultraviolet absorption wavelength of the reference substance, 245nm. The results show that when the organic phase ratio is 5%, the chromatographic peak separation of inosine and hirudinamine C is poor, and the chromatographic peaks are less. The HPLC chromatogram is as follows Figure 4 As shown. Therefore, the mobile phase A was changed to acetonitrile, and the extraction solvent of the test sample was changed, that is, the test sample preparation method 3 and the chromatographic analysis method 6 were used for detection. The chromatographic peak of hirudinamine B was not effectively separated from the adjacent chromatographic peaks. The HPLC results of leech fluid under different methods are shown as follows Figure 5 Adjust the organic phase ratio in the mobile phase, that is, use method 7-9. The chromatographic peak of hirudinamine B is still not separated from the adjacent chromatographic peaks, and the chromatographic peak of inosine is interfered by the solvent peak. The mobile phase A needs to be replaced.

[0239] When the mobile phase A was changed to methanol:acetonitrile (1:1), the chromatographic peak of hirudinamine B was still not effectively separated from the adjacent chromatographic peaks, and the separation of the chromatographic peak of inosine was poor. The HPLC results of leech under different methods are as follows: Figure 6 shown.

[0240] When the mobile phase A was changed to methanol:acetonitrile (2:1), the analytical method 13-14 was used for detection. The separation of the inosine chromatographic peak was poor, and the chromatographic peak of hirudinamine A was not detected. The HPLC results of leech under different methods are as follows: Figure 7 shown.

[0241] When the mobile phase A was changed to methanol:acetonitrile (3:1), the analytical method 15-16 was used for detection. The separation of the inosine chromatographic peaks was poor, and the chromatographic peak of hirudinamine C was not detected. The HPLC results of leeches under different methods are as follows: Figure 8 shown.

[0242] The mobile phase A was changed to methanol:acetonitrile (4:1) and the analytical method 17 was used for detection. The resolution of the inosine chromatographic peak was >1.5, but the resolution of hirudinamine B was poor. The HPLC results of leech under different methods are as follows: Fig. 9 As shown. When using analytical method 18 for detection, the chromatographic peak of hirudinamine A was not detected, and the separation of hirudinamine B was poor. When using analytical method 19 for detection, the separation of inosine, hirudinamine A, B, and C was >1.5, but the time was long (90min). The detection time was adjusted and analytical method 20 was used for detection. The target compounds were all detected and the separation was >1.5. Further attempts were made to increase the column temperature and use analytical method 21 for detection. It was found that the separation of hirudinamine B and C was less than 1.5 (see method 21).

[0243] Investigation of different acid waters in mobile phase: In this study, the reference solution 1 and the test solution prepared by method 3 were analyzed by method 20. The analysis of the reference solution 1 with different acid waters found that when the mobile phase was 0.05% acetic acid water, the chromatographic peaks of hirudinamine C and hirudinamine B were tailing, such as Fig.10 As shown. The analysis of the leech test solution with different acid waters found that when the mobile phase was 0.05% formic acid water, the separation degree between the chromatographic peak of hirudinamine B and the adjacent chromatographic peaks was less than 1.5; when the mobile phase was 0.05% acetic acid water, the chromatographic peaks of hirudinamine C and hirudinamine B were tailing; when the mobile phase was 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid water, the peak shape and separation degree of the main chromatographic peaks were good, as shown in Figure 1. Fig.11 As shown, the acid aqueous phase of the mobile phase was finally determined to be 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid water.

[0244] In summary, the best method for preparing the test sample is: take about 0.5 g of leech medicinal material sample powder (passed through No. 3 sieve), accurately weigh it, put it in a 50 mL stoppered conical flask, add 10 mL of 50% methanol, stopper it, weigh it, ultrasonically treat it (power 250 W, frequency 40 kHz) for 30 minutes, cool it, weigh it again, make up the lost weight with 50% methanol, shake it well, centrifuge it, and take the supernatant.

[0245] The optimal HPLC detection conditions are: Kromasil C 18 (250mm×4.6mm, 5μm) chromatographic column, methanol:acetonitrile (4:1) (A): 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid water (B) as mobile phase, conditions are 0-5min mobile phase A 5%→9%; 5-20min mobile phase A 9%→9%; 20-22min mobile phase A 9%→14%; 22-40min mobile phase A 14%→14%; 40-42min mobile phase A 14%→20%; 42-80min mobile phase A 20%→20%, detection wavelength is 245nm, flow rate is 1.0mL / min, column temperature is 30℃.
