Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of functional food technology, specifically to a blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying oligopeptide composition of Codonopsis pilosula, its preparation method, and its uses. Background Art
[0002] In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory, Qi deficiency and blood deficiency are two closely related and clinically common syndromes. Qi deficiency is mainly manifested as weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath, reluctance to speak, spontaneous sweating, pale complexion, pale tongue, and weak pulse. Blood deficiency is mainly manifested as sallow or pale complexion, pale lips and nails, dizziness, palpitations, insomnia, numbness in the limbs, pale tongue, and weak pulse. Qi deficiency is often caused by prolonged illness, overwork, insufficient diet, or weak congenital constitution, involving dysfunction of the lungs, spleen, and heart. Blood deficiency is mostly caused by excessive blood loss, weak spleen and stomach leading to insufficient blood production, and prolonged illness depleting Yin and blood. Qi and blood are interdependent and mutually generative; "Qi is the commander of blood, and blood is the mother of Qi." Qi deficiency can lead to insufficient blood production, resulting in secondary blood deficiency, while blood deficiency can also aggravate Qi deficiency, forming a complex state of both Qi and blood deficiency. Qi and blood deficiency not only seriously affects the patient's quality of life, but also often leads to a variety of complications such as low immunity, chronic fatigue syndrome, and anemia.
[0003] Currently, clinical treatment for qi and blood deficiency often uses traditional Chinese medicine (such as ginseng and astragalus) or Western medicine (such as energy supplements and iron supplements), but these methods have the following limitations:
[0004] Traditional Chinese medicine compound prescriptions: The decoction process is complex, which may result in low utilization of active ingredients (such as polysaccharides, saponins, flavonoids, etc.) and a relatively slow onset of action; moreover, the formulation requires precise diagnosis and is relatively inconvenient to use. Western medicine treatment: Long-term use of qi-tonifying energy supplements (such as amino acid injections) may cause gastrointestinal side effects or increase metabolic burden; iron supplements for blood replenishment are prone to causing adverse reactions such as constipation and nausea, and their absorption rate is affected by various factors. Limitations of single components: Whether it is a single component such as saponins or polysaccharides, or iron, it is difficult to comprehensively regulate the complex pathological mechanisms involving multiple targets and systems related to qi and blood deficiency (such as hematopoietic function, immune regulation, and antioxidation).
[0005] Codonopsis lanceolata, a plant used both as food and medicine, is rich in protein (11%-15%), polysaccharides, saponins, and various trace elements. Existing research largely focuses on the anti-tumor effects of its polysaccharides (e.g., patent CN201810473358.4) or cultivation and processing techniques (e.g., patent CN201310334283.9). However, research on the comprehensive efficacy of its rich oligopeptide components in "tonifying both qi and blood," particularly for the application in treating qi and blood deficiency syndromes, is almost nonexistent. Traditional water extraction methods yield low-yield proteins from Codonopsis lanceolata, with a wide molecular weight distribution and limited bioavailability. Recent studies have shown that oligopeptides (molecular weight <3000 Da) have significant advantages: they can be directly and efficiently absorbed by the intestines, rapidly replenishing various amino acids needed for protein and heme synthesis; they not only enhance energy metabolism (tonifying qi) but also promote the absorption and function of hematopoietic raw materials (tonifying blood) and regulate immune function. Meanwhile, various plant active ingredients (such as blueberry anthocyanins, longan polysaccharides, and jujube polysaccharides) have been proven to have antioxidant, mitochondrial function-improving, and immune-enhancing effects.
[0006] However, existing technologies have significant shortcomings: they lack a systematic compound formulation that utilizes Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptides, a potential active substance for replenishing both qi and blood, as the core, and scientifically combines it with other plant active ingredients to achieve multiple synergistic effects such as "replenishing qi, generating blood, anti-fatigue, and immune regulation." Such a compound formulation has significant clinical demand and development value for efficiently and comprehensively improving symptoms of qi and blood deficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to provide at least one oligopeptide composition of Codonopsis pilosula with blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying effects, its preparation method, and its uses.

[0093] One aspect of this application provides a Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide composition with blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying effects, comprising the following components:
[0094] The ingredients include Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptides, blueberry extract, longan pulp extract, jujube extract, wolfberry extract, whey protein powder, soybean peptide powder, hibiscus powder, fish maw oligopeptides, and compound nutritional fortifiers.
[0095] In some embodiments, the Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide composition with blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying effects comprises the following components in parts by weight:
[0096] The ingredients include 2 to 5 parts of Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide, 2 to 4 parts of blueberry extract, 2 to 3 parts of longan pulp extract, 2 to 3 parts of jujube extract, 2 to 3 parts of whey protein powder, 2 to 3 parts of soybean peptide powder, 2 to 3 parts of wolfberry extract, 1 to 2 parts of hibiscus powder, 0.2 to 0.5 parts of fish maw oligopeptide, and 0.5 to 1 part of compound nutritional fortifier.
[0097] I do not wish to be limited by any theory, but I believe that in this combination:
[0098] The core component is Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide, which has the effects of replenishing qi and blood, regulating the body's qi and blood balance, and enhancing physical fitness.
[0099] The blood-nourishing and qi-tonifying components include blueberry extract, which is rich in antioxidants such as anthocyanins, improves mitochondrial function, enhances the body's metabolic capacity, and helps to replenish qi and blood.
[0100] The ingredients that help replenish blood and qi include longan pulp extract, jujube extract, and wolfberry extract, which have the effects of replenishing blood and qi, strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach, and can help improve the symptoms of deficiency of both qi and blood.
[0101] The nutritional fortification components include whey protein, soy peptide powder, and fish maw oligopeptides. These ingredients are rich in high-quality protein and amino acids, which can provide the body with abundant nutritional support and promote the production of qi and blood.
[0102] The functional auxiliary components include hibiscus powder and compound nutritional fortifiers. Hibiscus powder has a certain blood-tonifying effect, while compound nutritional fortifiers can further enhance the overall nutritional balance and efficacy of the formula.
[0103] After creative exploration, the inventors discovered that Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptides and blueberry extract have a certain synergistic effect in replenishing blood and qi. They explored the content of each ingredient separately and applied them to a combination, which significantly increased the exhaustive swimming time of mice with qi deficiency, increased the spleen index, and improved the anti-fatigue ability of mice with qi deficiency. It has the effects of replenishing qi and strengthening the spleen, benefiting the lungs and nourishing the heart, and can effectively relieve the symptoms of qi deficiency and improve the quality of life of patients. It also significantly increased the number of blood cells in the blood of mice with anemia induced by the combination of acetylphenylhydrazine and cyclophosphamide, increased the secretion of hematopoietic factors to promote hematopoietic function, and improved the body's immunity.
[0104] Furthermore, while not wishing to be limited by any theoretical framework, it is believed that the efficacy of the Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide composition with blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying effects may decrease when the amount of Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide is less than 2 parts, and may decrease when the amount is greater than 5 parts. Similarly, the efficacy may decrease when the amount of blueberry extract is less than 2 parts and greater than 4 parts.
[0105] For example, in the Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide composition with blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying effects, the amount of Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide is 2 parts, 3 parts, 4 parts, or 5 parts, or any value or range between two values; the amount of blueberry extract is 2 parts, 3 parts, or 4 parts, or any value or range between two values; the amount of longan pulp extract is 2 parts, 3 parts, or any value or range between two values; the amount of jujube extract is 2 parts, 3 parts, or any value or range between two values; and the amount of whey protein powder is 2 parts, 3 parts, or any value or range between two values. Range: The dosage of soybean peptide powder is 2 parts, 3 parts, or any value or range between two values; the dosage of wolfberry extract is 2 parts, 3 parts, or any value or range between two values; the dosage of hibiscus powder is 1 part, 2 parts, or any value or range between two values; the dosage of fish maw oligopeptides is 0.2 parts, 0.3 parts, 0.4 parts, 0.5 parts, or any value or range between two values; the dosage of compound nutritional fortifier is 0.5 parts, 0.6 parts, 0.7 parts, 0.8 parts, 0.9 parts, 1 part, or any value or range between two values.
[0106] In some embodiments, the Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptide comprises a peptide segment with a sequence such as Arg-Lys-Trp-Ser-Trp-Arg.
[0107] In some embodiments, the fish maw oligopeptide comprises a peptide segment with a sequence such as Gly-Pro-Ala-Lys-Hyp.
[0108] In some embodiments, the compound nutritional fortifier comprises vitamins, zinc gluconate, and selenomethionine.
[0109] In some embodiments, the relative amounts of vitamins, zinc gluconate, and selenomethionine in the compound nutritional fortifier are in a weight ratio of 3:2:1.
[0110] For example, the vitamins include vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and vitamin B6; the relative amounts of the three are, for example, in a weight ratio of 1:1:1.
[0111] In some embodiments, the Codonopsis pilosula oligopeptides are prepared by a method comprising the following steps:
[0112] S100. Crushing and sieving: Take dried Codonopsis pilosula, crush it, and sieve it through a sieve with a mesh size of 30-50 to obtain Codonopsis pilosula powder;
[0113] S200. Cellulose hydrolysis: After pre-soaking the Codonopsis pilosula powder in distilled water, add 0.5 wt%~1 wt% cellulase for enzymatic hydrolysis. The cellulase activity is 15,000 U / g~30,000 U / g. The enzyme is inactivated after hydrolysis.

[0204] Blueberries, with their high anthocyanin content (≥25%), can reduce mitochondrial damage caused by oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals, thus improving chronic fatigue in patients with qi deficiency. Longan pulp and jujubes can enhance hemoglobin synthesis and improve blood and qi deficiency. Goji berry polysaccharides regulate T lymphocyte activity and boost immunity.
[0205] Fish maw oligopeptides are rich in glycine and proline, which promote connective tissue repair and improve joint weakness and weakened immunity caused by blood and qi deficiency. Whey protein is rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), and soybean peptides provide small molecule plant peptides (molecular weight <1000 Da). The two work synergistically to promote protein synthesis and alleviate qi deficiency-related physical exhaustion. Roselle contains vitamin C (≥200 mg / 100g), which, along with selenium and zinc in the compound, enhances superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and reduces lipid peroxidation levels.
[0206] Vitamins B1, B2, and B6 improve energy metabolism disorders in patients with blood and qi deficiency by promoting the activity of glucose and lipid metabolism enzymes.

[0223] Effect Example
[0224] 1.1 Construction of a Qi-deficient mouse model
[0225] Female ICR mice, weighing 26±2g, were acclimatized for one week prior to the experiment under a room temperature of 22±2℃, relative humidity of 40%~60%, and a 12-hour light-dark cycle. All mice had free access to water and standard feed. Before the experiment, mice underwent acclimatization swimming training for 4 days, 5 minutes / day in 50cm water at 25±1℃. One day before the experiment, mice were forced to swim to exhaustion with a 10% weight on their tails in 50cm room temperature water. Exhaustion was defined as being unable to return to the surface 10 seconds after sinking. The first exhaustion swimming time was recorded, and mice with significantly different exhaustion times were excluded. Mice were fasted for 24 hours. One day before the experiment, mice were weighed, and those with significantly different weights were excluded. Mice meeting the experimental requirements were randomly divided into 6 groups: blank control group, model control group, positive control group, comparative example group 1, comparative example group 2, and example 1 group.
[0226] 1.2 Drug administration to Qi-deficient mice
[0227] The blank control group was fed routinely without any intervention.
[0228] Other groups were fed a restricted diet of 120g / (kg / d). Every morning at 9:00 AM, mice were placed in a 50cm diameter container with several small platforms inside. Water was added to the container, submerging the platforms by 1cm. Mice were allowed to swim or stand on the platforms. Mice exhibited aversion to water and were unable to sleep normally, requiring partial sleep deprivation. Mice were removed and fed again at 9:00 PM. This process was repeated for 9 days. All groups received medication via gavage starting on day 1 of the experiment. Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Example 1 groups received the corresponding composition at 9.6g / kg. The positive control group received ginsenosides at 0.1g / kg. The blank group and model group received an equal volume of distilled water. Administration was once daily for 9 consecutive days. The herbal powder of *Codonopsis pilosula* was a brown powder; a certain mass was weighed before use and dissolved in distilled water to the required concentration, prepared fresh for each use. Ginsenosides were a yellow powder; a certain mass was weighed before use and dissolved in distilled water to the required concentration, prepared fresh for each use. The mice were administered the drug via gavage using a 1mL syringe, with a dosage of 0.3mL per mouse.
[0229] 1.3 Weight measurement of Qi-deficient mice
[0230] Six groups of mice were divided and weighed after administration. The mice were administered the drug for nine days, and were weighed at a fixed time each day.
[0231] 1.4 Determination of swimming time in exhausted mice with qi deficiency
[0232] At the start of the experiment and on day 9 of modeling, the mice's exhaustive swimming time was measured. The first and last exhaustive swimming times of the mice were recorded, and the ratio of the first to last exhaustive swimming times was calculated to determine whether the mice were in a state of fatigue.
[0233] 1.5 Determination of spleen index in Qi-deficient mice
[0234] Nine days after administration, the mice were fasted for 12 hours, then anesthetized and euthanized. The spleens were removed and weighed, and the organ ratios were calculated.
[0235] 1.6 Results of the Qi-deficient mouse experiment
[0236] (1) Nine days after exhaustive swimming (i.e., nine days after drug administration), the body weight of mice in the model group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.001). Nine days after drug administration, compared with the model group, the Example 1 group and the positive group showed a trend of improving the decrease in body weight of mice with qi deficiency, but the results were not statistically significant. See the results below. Figure 1 .
[0237] (2) Effect on the swimming time of exhausted mice: Compared with the blank group, the model group mice showed lethargy and drooping eyes, and their swimming time was shortened, but this was not statistically significant. After administration, compared with the model group, the swimming time of mice in Example 1 group and the positive group was significantly prolonged (P<0.001). The results are shown in [link to results]. Figure 2 .
[0238] (3) Effect on spleen index in Qi-deficient mice: After administration, compared with the blank group, the spleen of mice in the model group was significantly atrophied and the spleen index was significantly reduced (P<0.001); compared with the model group, the decreasing trend of spleen index in the Example 1 group and the positive group was slowed down, but there was no statistical significance. See the results below. Figure 3 .
[0239] 1.7 Construction of an anemia mouse model
[0240] Female ICR mice, weighing 26±2g; Compound donkey-hide gelatin oral liquid: purchased from Shandong Dong-E-E-Jiao Co., Ltd.; Acetylphenylhydrazine: purchased from Solarbio; Cyclophosphamide: purchased from MCE; EPO kit, G-CSF kit, IL-3 kit, and M-CSF kit were all purchased from Shanghai Enzyme-Linked Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Mice were randomly divided into 6 groups: blank control group, model control group, positive control group, comparative example 1 group, comparative example 2 group, and Example 1 group. Except for the blank group, the other groups were subcutaneously injected with acetylphenylhydrazine 20 mg / kg on day 2 of the experiment, and again subcutaneously injected with acetylphenylhydrazine 40 mg / kg on day 4. Simultaneously, starting from day 4, 2 hours after the subcutaneous injection of acetylphenylhydrazine, the mice were intraperitoneally injected with cyclophosphamide 40 mg / kg once daily for 4 consecutive days. The blank group received the same volume of physiological saline as the other groups during model establishment.
[0241] 1.8 Drug administration in an anemic mouse model
[0242] All groups were administered medication by gavage starting on day 1 of the experiment. The dosage for each group was 9.6 g / kg of the compositions in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Example 1, respectively. The positive control group received 10 mL / kg of Compound Donkey-hide Gelatin Oral Solution, while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of distilled water. Administration was once daily for 15 consecutive days. Thirty minutes after the last administration, blood was collected from the eyeballs. A portion of the blood sample was placed in an anticoagulant tube for detecting blood cell levels; the remaining blood sample was allowed to stand at room temperature for 4 hours, then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes to separate the serum, which was then stored at -20°C for later use in the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting cytokines in the serum.
[0243] 1.9 Blood routine test and cytokine detection in anemic mice
[0244] The blood cell analyzer detects red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cells, and platelets. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is used to detect interleukin-3 (IL-3), erythropoietin (EPO), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) in serum.
[0245] 1.10 Results of the anemia-deficient mouse experiment
[0246] Blood cell counts showed that, compared with the blank control group, the model group mice had decreased levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cells, and platelets, indicating that the combined use of acetylphenylhydrazine and cyclophosphamide could lead to a decrease in blood cell levels in mice. Compared with the model group, the comparative examples 1, 2, and Example 1 groups showed increased levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cells, and platelets, indicating that the combined composition had a certain ameliorative effect on the decrease in blood cell levels induced by the combined use of acetylphenylhydrazine and cyclophosphamide in mice. (See attached results.) Figures 4A to 4E Furthermore, the drug provided in this application embodiment is significantly more effective than the comparative example.
[0247] The levels of IL-3, EPO, G-CSE, and M-CSF in the serum of mice in each group were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that compared with the blank control group, the levels of IL-3, EPO, G-CSE, and M-CSE in the model group were all decreased. This indicates that the combined use of acetylphenylhydrazine and cyclophosphamide can lead to a decrease in the levels of IL-3, EPO, G-CSE, and M-CSF in mouse serum. Compared with the model group, the levels of IL-3, EPO, G-CSE, and M-CSF in the serum of mice in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, Example 1, and the positive control group were significantly increased (*P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01). This indicates that the composition has an ameliorative effect on the decrease in cytokines such as IL-3, EPO, G-CSE, and M-CSF caused by the combined use of acetylphenylhydrazine and cyclophosphamide. (See attached results.) Figures 5A to 5D Furthermore, the drug provided in this application embodiment is significantly more effective than the comparative example.
