Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drug extraction, and particularly relates to a water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan and an extraction method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Phoebe zhennan is a plant of the genus Phoebe in the Lauraceae family. Its application in traditional Chinese medicine has been documented. Ancient books such as Zhenglei Bencao and Taiping Shenghui Fang mention its use in infectious diseases, internal medicine, and dermatological diseases. Modern research mainly focuses on the extraction and separation of its volatile oil components and its antibacterial and antitumor biological activities. For example, volatile oil analysis has revealed that it contains terpenes, phenols and other compounds, and has verified its inhibitory effects on some bacteria and tumor cells. However, there are few studies on the water-soluble components of Phoebe zhennan, especially its application in the antiviral field has not been publicly reported, and there is no relevant literature on its treatment of respiratory diseases such as acute rhinitis.
[0003] In clinical practice, acute upper respiratory tract infections (such as viral rhinitis and asthma exacerbations) are mainly caused by influenza A virus (H1N1) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Such viral infections can cause transient allergies in the nasal mucosa, triggering symptoms such as sneezing and runny nose. Currently, there is a lack of targeted antiviral treatment drugs in clinical practice, and symptomatic supportive treatment is mostly used, with limited effect. Although some plant extracts (such as Scutellaria baicalensis and Honeysuckle) have been reported to have antiviral effects, their inhibitory efficiency against H1N1 and RSV is insufficient (the killing logarithm is generally <3.0), and high concentrations are prone to cytotoxicity. Based on the existing technology's neglect of the antiviral activity of the water-soluble components of Phoebe zhennan, and the clinical demand for specific drugs against respiratory viruses, it is urgent to develop a high-efficiency, low-toxic antiviral component derived from Phoebe zhennan and a preparation method thereof. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to provide a water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan and an extraction method and application thereof. The water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan has high-efficiency and broad-spectrum antiviral activity and can effectively inhibit the activity of respiratory viruses.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows:
[0006] A method for extracting a water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan, comprising the following steps:
[0007] S1. Crush the Phoebe zhennan raw material, add 6 times the amount of water to extract twice, each time for 1 hour, and combine the filtrates;
[0008] S2. The filtrate obtained in S1 was concentrated under reduced pressure to a volume ratio of 1:1, allowed to stand at low temperature, and the supernatant was collected;
[0009] S3. Centrifuge the supernatant obtained in S2, discard the precipitate, concentrate under reduced pressure, and dry at low temperature to obtain the water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan.

[0018] The present invention also provides an anti-respiratory virus preparation comprising the water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan as an active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:
[0020] The present invention discloses a water-soluble extract of Phoebe chinensis, an extraction method, and applications thereof. The water-soluble extract prepared using the present invention exhibits a logarithmic killing effect greater than 4.50 against influenza A virus (H1N1, VR-1469) and greater than 4.47 against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV, VR-1803) at a concentration of 2%, both meeting the significant inhibition standards specified in the Technical Specifications for Disinfection. The extract can be directly used to prepare anti-respiratory viral drugs for the targeted treatment of viral acute rhinitis, upper respiratory tract infections, and exacerbated viral asthma, providing an effective means for addressing the clinical challenge of synergistic pathogenicity between viral infection and respiratory hypersensitivity reactions.

[0024] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, other test materials and instruments and equipment are conventional test materials in this field and can be purchased through commercial channels.
[0025] The virus strains were: influenza A virus (H1N1) (VR-1469), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) (VR-1803).
[0026] The cell lines are: MDCK and HEP-2.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] A method for extracting a water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan, comprising the following steps:
[0029] S1. Grind 100 g of Phoebe zhennan raw material, add 6 times the amount of water and extract twice, each time for 1 hour, and combine the filtrates;
[0030] S2. The filtrate obtained in S1 was concentrated under reduced pressure to a volume ratio of 1:1, and allowed to stand at 4°C for 10 h. The supernatant was collected.
[0031] S3. Centrifuge the supernatant obtained in S2 at 10,000 rpm / min for 20 min, discard the precipitate, concentrate under reduced pressure, and dry at 60° C. to obtain a water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan, with an extract yield of 15%.
[0032] Take 2 g of the above-mentioned water-soluble extract of Phoebe zhennan and prepare it into a 4% solution with PBS. Filter it with a 0.22 μm microporous filter membrane, store it in a 1 mL EP tube as the original solution for the experiment, and store it in a -40°C refrigerator for use.
[0033] The effect was verified through the following tests:
[0034] The experimental methods are as follows:
[0035] Testing basis: "Disinfection Technical Specifications" 2002 Edition 2.1.1.10 Virus Inactivation Test
[0036] Action conditions: Disinfectant concentrations (12.5%, 25%, 50%, 100%) were applied for 2 minutes respectively; the original solution (4%) used in the experiment was used as 100% of the disinfectant concentration.
[0037] Methods for terminating the effect of residual disinfectants:
[0038] Physical disinfection method (preferential dilution method): The disinfectant (25%) is diluted in a gradient manner. After 10-fold dilution, 2.5% disinfectant has no effect on cells. Under this dilution condition, there is no obvious inhibitory effect on virus-infected cells, thereby obtaining the conditions for effectively terminating disinfection at different concentrations of disinfectant. Taking 25% disinfectant as an example, the following operations are performed:
[0039] Group 1: Pipette 0.9 mL of disinfectant into a test tube, place it in a 20℃±1℃ water bath for 5 minutes, then add 0.1 mL of virus suspension, mix well, and let it sit for 2 minutes, then measure the virus titer.
[0040] Group 2: Pipette 0.9 mL of disinfectant into a test tube, place it in a 20℃±1℃ water bath for 5 minutes, then add 0.1 mL of virus suspension, mix well, and let it sit for 2 minutes. Immediately dilute it 5-fold, mix well, and then measure the virus titer.
[0041] Group 3: Pipette 0.1 mL of virus suspension and add 0.9 mL of cell culture medium, dilute 5-fold, mix well, and then measure the virus titer.
[0042] Group 4: Pipette 0.1 mL of virus suspension and add 0.9 mL of cell maintenance medium. No disinfectant or other disinfection treatment is performed. Pipette the virus suspension according to the test requirements and perform the subsequent virus titer determination.
[0043] Group 5: Complete cell culture medium was added to the cell tube not inoculated with virus and cultured.
[0044] Inactivation test: Take 25% disinfectant as an example and perform the following operations:
[0045] (1) Pipette 0.1 mL of interfering substance (3% BSA) and add it to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube.
[0046] (2) Add 0.1 mL of virus suspension to the centrifuge tube and mix. Then add 0.8 mL of product test solution and start timing after mixing.
[0047] (3) After the specified exposure time, immediately perform a 5-fold dilution. Then, prepare a 10-fold dilution series of mixed solutions (test mixture and cell maintenance solution) within 30 minutes. Calculate the virus kill rate based on the change in virus titer before and after the test.
[0048] The experiment was commissioned by Zhongke Testing Technology Service (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., and antiviral testing was performed on a water-soluble extract of Phoebe chinensis, according to the Virus Inactivation Test Method, Section 2.1.1.10, of the "Technical Specifications for Disinfection," 2002 edition. The results of the water-soluble extract of Phoebe chinensis against influenza virus are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
