Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to medical formulations, in particular to a pharmaceutical preparation containing an unidentified structure from traditional Chinese medicine, which is suitable for preventing and treating chemical liver injury. BACKGROUND

[0002] Liver injury is a pathological state shared by various liver diseases, which seriously threatens human health. According to reports, about 3.5% of death cases worldwide are directly related to liver injury. Among them, chemical liver injury is induced by various factors, including drugs, alcohol, chemical toxins, and viruses, etc. Chemical liver injury develops rapidly, can cause significant liver function abnormalities, and can lead to complications such as liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy, and acute kidney injury, etc., which is one of the causes of high mortality (CRISMALE J F, FRIEDMAN SL. Acute liver injury and decompensated cirrhosis [J]. The medical clinics of North America, 2020, 104(4): 647-662). At present, traditional Chinese medicine with the characteristics of multiple pathways, multiple targets, and multiple indications has shown significant efficacy in the treatment of chemical liver injury, providing an important source of raw materials for the development of new liver-protecting drugs. Studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine can exert anti-liver injury effects through anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, inhibition of cell apoptosis, and regulation of intestinal flora, etc. (WANG GQ, LIU SP, DENG SW, et al. Research progress on the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of acute liver injury [J]. Journal of Guangxi Medical University, 2023, 40(11): 1921-1927.). Usually, whether liver injury has been formed is determined by detecting plasma AST, ALT, and other indicators and observing histopathology.

[0003] In clinic, N-acetylcysteine, glucocorticoids, silymarin and bifendate have certain therapeutic effect on liver injury, but the efficacy and safety have certain limitations (HU C. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells and their derivatives effectively promotes liver regeneration to attenuate acetaminophen-induced liver injury[J]. Stem Cell Res Ther, 2020, 11(1): 88.). Artificial liver as a temporary liver support system, due to its complex equipment and large volume, limits its application. Liver transplantation is the only effective means at present, but its application is limited due to organ donor shortage, immune rejection and high medical costs (ZHANG J. Stem cell therapy and tissue engineering strategies using cell aggregates and decellularized scaffolds for the rescue of liver failure[J]. J Tissue Eng, 2021, 12: 2041731420986711.).

[0004] Chemical liver injury is a modern medical term, and there is no direct record of "liver injury" in Chinese medicine. Chemical liver injury can be attributed to the categories of "alcohol injury", "hypochondriac pain", "alcohol addiction", "drug toxicity", "distension" and "jaundice" in traditional Chinese medicine according to its clinical manifestations. Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that chemical toxicants, hepatotoxic drugs or excessive alcohol belong to toxic evils, and toxic evils are the basic factors causing the disease. In terms of treatment, the combination of syndrome differentiation and treatment and disease differentiation and treatment, and the combination of local and whole are the basic principles of Chinese medicine treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the etiology of liver injury can be divided into internal and external factors. The internal factor is deficiency of vital qi, and the external factor is invasion of toxic evils. The disease is not limited to the liver, but also involves the spleen, stomach, gallbladder and kidney. Spleen and stomach transportation failure, abnormal liver and gallbladder, qi stagnation, dampness, heat and blood stasis, so as to appear hypochondriac pain, jaundice, distension and accumulation. Therefore, the treatment can be taken as the treatment principle of tonifying qi and strengthening the body, invigorating the spleen and soothing the liver, removing blood stasis.

[0005] The patent application with the publication number CN 117180386A discloses a traditional Chinese medicine composition for preventing and treating drug-induced deafness and presbycusis. The effective component is made of raw medicinal materials in the following weight percentages: 9-13% of ginseng, 31-35% of astragalus, 9-13% of turmeric, 20-24% of kudzu root, 9-13% of platycodon, and 9-13% of licorice. Meanwhile, the patent application also discloses the following contents: ginseng and astragalus are the monarch, the former can tonify the five zang organs, especially tonifying the spleen and lung, and the latter can tonify qi and raise yang, the combination of the two can tonify primordial qi, raise clear qi, and nourish the ears and the auditory canals; turmeric and kudzu root are the ministers, the former can activate blood and promote qi circulation, and the latter can activate collaterals and assist the monarch in raising clear yang and promoting the ears and the auditory canals; platycodon is the assistant, which can open the lung qi, clear the head and eyes, and carry the medicine upward; and licorice is the guide, which can tonify the spleen and lung, clear heat and detoxify, and harmonize the various medicines. The combination of the various medicines can tonify the spleen and lung, raise clear qi, dissipate stasis and collaterals, and open the orifices to restore hearing. However, drug-induced deafness and presbycusis are two different diseases, and their pathogenesis and clinical symptoms are completely different, so the ordinary skilled in the art cannot infer that the traditional Chinese medicine composition described in the above patent application also has the therapeutic use of preventing and treating chemical liver injury. SUMMARY

Figure 1 The liver tissue cells of the blank control group have clear structure, arranged in an orderly and regular manner, and the cells are full and no damage is observed. The liver tissue structure is abnormal, and necrotic foci can be observed in the lobules. The liver tissue damage of the positive control group and each drug administration group is significantly reduced, and the specific performance is that the liver tissue structure is arranged in an orderly manner, and the area of necrotic foci in the lobules is significantly reduced. Compared with the liver tissue pathological damage degree of the experimental group 1 and the experimental groups 2 and 3, the damage degree of the experimental groups 2 and 3 is significantly greater than that of the experimental group 1. The above results show that the experimental groups 1-3 can effectively alleviate the liver damage caused by cisplatin, and the experimental group 1 (the best ratio) has the best effect.

[0059] 3.2 Prevention and treatment effect of the test drug on acute liver injury mice caused by carbon tetrachloride

[0060] The results of the experiment on the influence of liver coefficient are shown in Table 3. Compared with the model group, the liver coefficient of the blank control group was significantly increased (P<0.001).

[0069] The results of the experiment on the influence of liver tissue morphology are shown in Table 5. Compared with the model group, the liver tissue morphology of the blank control group was significantly improved (P<0.001). Compared with the model group, the liver tissue morphology of the positive control group and the experimental groups 1-3 was significantly improved (P<0.001, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the liver tissue morphology between the experimental groups 1-3 and the positive control group (P>0.05). The above results show that the experimental groups 1-3 can alleviate the liver edema or congestion caused by carbon tetrachloride. Figure 2As shown, the normal control group had clear liver tissue cell structure, arranged in order, and the cells were full and no damage was observed. The model group had severely abnormal liver tissue structure, and large necrotic lesions were observed in the lobules. The liver cell outline disappeared, and the nucleus was fragmented or dissolved, and only red uniform staining structure was observed. The liver tissue damage of the positive control group and the experimental groups 1-3 was significantly reduced, which was manifested by the fact that the liver tissue structure was arranged in order, the area of necrotic lesions in the lobules was significantly reduced, and the degree of liver cell necrosis was significantly reduced. The degree of liver tissue pathological damage of the experimental group 1 was lower than that of the experimental groups 2 and 3, and the area of necrotic lesions in the lobules of the experimental groups 2 and 3 was significantly larger than that of the experimental group 1. The above results show that the experimental groups 1-3 can effectively alleviate the liver damage caused by carbon tetrachloride, and the experimental group 1 (optimal ratio) has the best effect.

[0070] 3.3 Prevention and treatment effect of the test drug on alcohol-induced acute liver injury in mice

Compared with the model group, the liver coefficient of the blank control group was significantly increased (P<0.001). Compared with the model group, the liver coefficient of the positive control group and the experimental groups 1-3 was significantly reduced (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the liver coefficient between the experimental groups 1-3 and the positive control group (P>0.05), and the liver coefficient of the experimental group 1 was the lowest. The above results show that a large amount of alcohol can significantly cause acute liver injury, and the control group and the experimental groups 1-3 can alleviate the liver edema or congestion caused by alcohol, and the experimental group 1 (optimal ratio) has the best effect.
