Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of compound drug technology, specifically to the application of aloin in the prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome. Background Technology

[0002] Allergic rhinitis and asthma are chronic inflammations of the upper and lower respiratory tracts in allergic individuals. They share significant similarities in etiology, immunity, and pathogenesis. Allergic rhinitis often coexists with asthma, influencing each other's disease progression and severity. Therefore, based on the concept of "one airway, one disease," the new medical diagnostic term "allergic rhinitis-asthma syndrome" has been proposed in recent years, referring to the simultaneous occurrence of clinical or subclinical upper respiratory tract allergies (allergic rhinitis) and lower respiratory tract allergic symptoms (asthma). It is characterized by a type 2 immune response with eosinophil infiltration and the production of cytokines such as IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13. For example, IL-5 plays a crucial role in airway eosinophilia, while IL-4 and IL-13 are essential for IgE production. IL-13 promotes hyperresponsiveness, mucus production, and airway fibrosis through tissue remodeling. These cytokines are responsible for the production of allergy-specific IgE, eosinophilia, mast cell activation, and the release of histamine, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes, promoting bronchoconstriction, increased vascular permeability, edema, vasodilation, and airway hyperresponsiveness. The resulting clinical symptoms severely impact patients' quality of life and impose a heavy economic and social burden.

[0003] Currently, treatment primarily employs non-specific therapies such as allergen avoidance and immune modulation. Commonly used medications include antihistamines, topical corticosteroids, mast cell stabilizers, and leukotriene receptor antagonists. However, clinical efficacy remains unsatisfactory, with frequent relapses, poor long-term outcomes, and even serious adverse consequences. Therefore, finding effective treatment measures is of paramount importance. Summary of the Invention

The corresponding protein IDs were found based on the UniProt database identifiers, and the gene names corresponding to these targets were also obtained. The Similarity ensemble approach database search identified the target genes of aloin, and screening was performed with MaxTC > 0.4 as the criterion. The results were merged, deduplicated, and imported into a Venn diagram. The results were recorded as potential targets of aloin.

[0018] Furthermore, the target analysis for allergic rhinitis and asthma used Allergic rhinitis and Asthma as keywords, respectively, to search and screen for disease-related genes in Gene Cards, OMIM, TTD, Drug Bank, and Pharm Gkb databases, and obtained the disease targets of AR and asthma, respectively; further, the intersection of these targets with the potential targets of aloe-emodin was obtained to obtain the intersection targets of aloe-emodin for the treatment of AR and asthma.

[0019] Furthermore, the aloe vera glycoside is mixed in a drug for preventing and treating allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome, which also contains antibacterial and / or anti-inflammatory active ingredients.

[0020] Furthermore, the aloe-emodin was tested using aloe-emodin with a purity greater than 98%, ovalbumin, aluminum hydroxide, budesonide, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit, and an ELISA reader.

[0077] Animal experiment

[0078] Female BALB / c mice aged 6-8 weeks, SPF grade, with a body weight of 20±2.5 g, were used in the experiment. The mice were purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd. (license number SCXK (Jing) 2021-0006) and raised in the animal room of Qingdao University (license number SYXK (Lu) 20200018). Throughout the experiment, the mice were housed in an environment with a temperature of 23-25°C and a 12 h light-dark cycle, with free access to water and food. The mice used in this study were housed in accordance with the protocol approved by the Animal Committee of Qingdao University. Main reagents and instruments;

[0079] Animal grouping and treatment

[0080] Experimental animals were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=9): normal group, CARAS group (OVA sensitization and challenge), low-dose aloin group (10 mg / kg), medium-dose aloin group (20 mg / kg), high-dose aloin group (40 mg / kg), and budesonide group (0.9 mg / kg, BUD group). The CARAS experimental model was established as follows: On days 0 and 7, mice were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of 50 μg / ml ovalbumin and 0.2 ml of 10 mg / ml Al(OH)3 suspension. From day 21 to day 37, for three consecutive weeks, all drugs were instilled into the nasal cavity of mice bilaterally at a dose of 20 μl (5 mg / ml, 20 μl / animal) via nasal drops, and the mice were kept in a supine position for several minutes. On day 38, mice were nebulized with OVA (5%) for 30 minutes for five consecutive days. One hour before each OVA challenge, mice were treated with aloin or budesonide, and the normal group mice were treated with PBS in the same way. Mice were sacrificed on day 43 and biological material was collected for analysis.

[0081] Symptoms of scratching the nose and sneezing

[0082] Within 10 minutes of the last OVA stimulation (day 42), observe each animal for symptoms such as scratching its nose and sneezing.

[0083] Histopathological examination

[0084] Tissues fixed in paraformaldehyde were dehydrated with ethanol and embedded in paraffin. Nasal and lung sections were cut into 3–5 μm thin slices using a microtome, then stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and observed under an optical microscope for histopathological examination to assess the degree of damage to the mouse nasal mucosa and lung tissue.

[0085] Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)

[0086] After collecting blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and allowing them to stand for 2 hours, centrifuge at 4°C for 10 minutes, collect the supernatant, and store at -80°C for later use. ELISA kits were used to determine the serum levels of total IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IFN-γ in mice, as well as the contents of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IFN-γ in BALF. All procedures were strictly performed according to the kit's protocol.

[0087] Statistical analysis

[0088] Data were statistically analyzed using GraphPadPrism 9 software. Quantitative data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (x ± s), and one-way ANOVA was used for comparisons among multiple groups. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0089] result

[0090] Aloe-glycoside target prediction

[0091] Data was sequentially retrieved from databases such as Swiss Target Prediction, Pharm Mapper, and Similarity ensemble approach, exported, and deduplicated to ultimately obtain 131 drug targets.

[0092] Predictive results for targets in allergic rhinitis and asthma

[0093] Using the Gene Cards, OMIM, TTD, Pharm GKB, and Drug Bank databases, a search was conducted using "Allergic rhinitis" as the keyword, resulting in 2047 targets for Allergic rhinitis. Drug targets and disease targets were then merged using the keyword "Vene," ultimately identifying 42 potential targets related to aloe-emodin treatment of AR.

[0094] Similarly, 1613 asthma targets were retrieved from public databases using "asthma" as the keyword, and these were combined with drug targets to obtain 58 potential targets that may be related to the treatment of asthma with urolithiasis A.

[0095] Construction and analysis of PPI (protein-protein interaction) networks

[0096] Forty-two intersecting target sites of aloin for treating allergic rhinitis were imported into the String database to obtain a PPI network graph with 41 nodes and 138 edges. The obtained PPI network graph was imported into Cytoscape 3.9.0 software, and network topology analysis was performed using the Cyto NCA plugin. Important target genes were located in the central region of the network. The selection criteria based on the corresponding medians were set as follows: BC>6, CC>0.247, DC>5, EC>0.078, NC>3, LAC>2. Gene targets meeting all median criteria were retained and labeled, and a new PPI network consisting of 13 nodes and 72 edges was subsequently extracted. Subsequently, in the new PPI network, only targets that meet the selection criteria BC>1.202, CC>0.8, DC>9, EC>0.290, NC>8.304, and LAC>7.111 are retained, resulting in a new PPI network consisting of 5 nodes and 10 edges. Ultimately, the core targets of allergic rhinitis are found to be EGFR, SRC, ESR1, ALB, and MAPK8.

[0097] Simultaneously, a PPI network graph was constructed from 58 intersecting targets of aloin in asthma treatment, resulting in 55 nodes and 205 edges. The obtained PPI network graph was imported into Cytoscape 3.9.0 software, and the selection criteria based on the corresponding medians were set as follows: BC>8.833, CC>0.244, DC>5, EC>0.085, NC>3.333, LAC>2.333. Gene targets meeting all median criteria were retained and labeled, and a new PPI network consisting of 17 nodes and 78 edges was subsequently extracted. Subsequently, in the new PPI network, only targets that meet the selection criteria of BC>3.252, CC>0.696, DC>9, EC>0.234, NC>7.592, and LAC>6.182 are retained, resulting in a new PPI network consisting of 6 nodes and 14 edges. The core targets for asthma that were finally obtained are EGFR, SRC, ESR1, ALB, MAPK8, and KDR.

[0098] GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis

[0099] Forty-two overlapping targets of aloin in the treatment of allergic rhinitis were enriched using GO and KEGG analyses. GO results showed that 1049 enriched targets were related to biological processes (BP), 107 to molecular functions (MF), and 25 to cellular composition (CC). Biological processes mainly involved the positive regulation of the MAPK cascade, responses to steroid hormones, and responses to lipopolysaccharides; molecular functions mainly involved serine endopeptidase activity and serine peptidase activity; and cellular composition mainly involved vesicle lumen. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the most enriched metabolic pathways in allergic rhinitis included the MAPK signaling pathway.

[0100] Similarly, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were performed on 58 overlapping targets of aloin in the treatment of asthma. Of the targets identified in asthma, 753 were related to biological processes (BP), 94 to molecular functions (MF), and 19 to cellular composition (CC). Biological processes mainly involved reactive oxygen species metabolism and peptidyl-serine phosphorylation; molecular functions mainly involved endopeptidase activity and serine endopeptidase activity; and cellular composition mainly involved ficolin-1-rich granules and vesicle lumen. KEGG results showed significant enrichment of the MAPK signaling pathway in asthma.

[0101] Molecular docking verification

[0102] To further validate the predictive power of bioinformatics, molecular docking was used to explore the potential of aloin in treating allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma. After Cyto NCA analysis, molecular docking was performed between aloin and the most important targets of AR (ESR1, EGFR, ALB, SRC, MAPK8). The binding free energies of ESR1, EGFR, ALB, SRC, and MAPK8 with aloin were -7.0, -9.8, -8.6, -8.4, and -7.4, respectively. Simultaneously, molecular docking was performed between aloin and the most important targets of asthma (ESR1, EGFR, ALB, SRC, MAPK8, KDR). The binding free energies of ESR1, EGFR, ALB, SRC, MAPK8, and KDR were -7.0, -9.8, -8.6, -8.4, -7.4, and -7.9, respectively. All the above molecular docking binding free energies were ≤-7, indicating that aloin has a good binding affinity to the core targets of allergic rhinitis and asthma.

[0103] Effects of aloin on symptoms in CARAS mice

[0104] Mice in the normal group moved freely, responded readily to external stimuli, and had normal eating and drinking habits. Mice in the CARAS group exhibited rapid breathing, restlessness, and significant nose rubbing and sneezing. In the low-dose aloe-emodin group, symptoms were not alleviated; in the medium-dose group, symptoms were slightly alleviated; and in the high-dose group, symptoms were significantly reduced, and activity remained largely normal. Mice in the budesonide group had normal eating and drinking habits and were more active. As shown in the figure, compared to the control group, the CARAS group showed a significantly increased frequency of sneezing and nose rubbing every 10 minutes.

[0105] Effects of aloin on the pathology of nasal mucosa and lung tissue in CARAS mice

[0106] like Figure 6 As shown, in the normal group mice, the airway structure of the nasal mucosa and lung tissue pathological sections was regular, with no stenosis of the lumen and only a small number of inflammatory cells occasionally. In the CARAS group mice, a large number of inflammatory cells (especially obvious eosinophil infiltration) were observed in the nasal mucosa and lung tissue. Mucus plugs were visible in the lumen of the nasal mucosal glands, the tissue structure was disordered, and there was obvious vasodilation and alveolar edema in the lung tissue. The airway epithelium was irregular. In the high-dose aloe-emodin group, the inflammatory cell infiltration and alveolar congestion and edema were reduced compared with the CARAS group, and the airway epithelial structure was more intact. In the BUD group, the inflammatory cell infiltration was significantly reduced compared with the CARAS group, and the airway epithelial structure and alveolar structure were intact.

[0107] Effects of aloin on serum and BALF levels in CARAS mice

[0108] Compared with the control group, the CARAS group showed a significant increase in serum total IgE levels, while both treatments (aloe veraside or BUD) reduced the production of this immunoglobulin. Furthermore, the CARAS model mice produced large amounts of type 2 cytokines, such as IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13, while the level of type 1 cytokine IFN-γ was significantly reduced. The low- and medium-dose aloe veraside groups showed no significant decrease in IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and total IgE levels, while the high-dose aloe veraside group and the BUD group showed significantly reduced serum total IgE, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 levels and increased IFN-γ levels in serum and BALF.

[0113] Further such as Figure 6 The images show representative micrographs of H&E-stained nasal tissue, with inflammatory parameters indicating strong cellular infiltration. The images also show representative micrographs of H&E-stained lung tissue, with inflammatory parameters indicating strong cellular infiltration and loss of epithelial integrity. (×400x magnification).

[0114] Further such as Figure 7 As shown, ELISA was used to detect the levels of (A) IL-4, (B) IL-5, (C) IL-13, and (D) IFN-γ in BALF, and (E) ELISA was used to detect the levels of (F) IgE, (G) IL-4, (H) IL-5, and (I) IL-13 in serum. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Compared with other groups, the CARAS group showed ***P < 0.001, **p < 0.01, and *P < 0.05.

[0115] In summary, the application of aloin in the prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis and asthma syndrome provided in the above embodiments can bring positive anti-inflammatory activity, inhibit tumor progression, resist osteoporosis, resist pathogens, regulate metabolism and protect organs during the treatment process.
