Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of medicine, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating vaginal inflammation, and a preparation method and use thereof. Background Art
[0002] Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa and submucosal connective tissue. It is a common gynecological disease with high incidence, low cure rate and high recurrence rate. Currently, the treatment of VVC mainly focuses on systemic or local administration of antibiotics. However, antibiotic treatment is prone to drug resistance and may cause dysbiosis, resulting in prolonged vaginitis. It may also cause adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal discomfort and rash.
[0003] The vaginal microecological environment is a dynamic equilibrium system that is mutually restrained and coordinated. Under normal circumstances, it is dominated by dominant bacteria such as lactobacilli. When vaginitis occurs, in addition to infection with harmful bacteria, the detection rate of vaginal lactobacilli in patients is much lower than that of normal people, and the vaginal microecological environment is in an unbalanced state. After conventional treatment, especially after treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics, although the symptoms of vaginitis disappear, the microecological environment has not recovered, thus causing repeated attacks of vaginitis. Repeated use of antibiotics will cause increased drug resistance, reduce the cure rate, and increase the recurrence rate. Therefore, how to inhibit harmful bacteria, protect beneficial bacteria, and regulate and repair the vaginal microecology is the key to curing vaginitis and avoiding recurrence.
[0004] Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of treating vaginal infections. It was first recorded in the "Golden Chamber Synopsis: Miscellaneous Diseases in Women, Pulse and Symptoms, and Treatments" in the Eastern Han Dynasty, using a single herb, Cnidium monnieri, as a medicine, and using a suppository (vaginal administration) to treat symptoms of cold and damp leucorrhea. Vaginal infections belong to the category of "leucorrhea" and "vulvar itching" in traditional Chinese medicine. The main pathogenesis is that dampness damages the Ren and Dai meridians, making the Ren meridian unstable and the Dai meridian out of order. Dampness is the main cause of this disease. "Fu Qingzhu's Gynecology" mentioned that "leucorrhea is all dampness syndrome." Dampness can be divided into internal dampness and external dampness. Dysfunction of the spleen, kidney, and liver is the cause of internal dampness; external dampness is mostly caused by living in wetlands for a long time, or unclean sexual intercourse, etc. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine treatment of vaginal infections focuses on dehumidification, and removes dampness through the method of clearing heat and removing dampness to achieve the purpose of regulating the balance of the flora and reducing inflammation.
[0005] In summary, based on the above theory, in order to avoid the problem that antibiotics only kill bacteria but cannot regulate the vaginal microecological environment and are prone to drug resistance, the role of traditional Chinese medicine in regulating the balance of flora and reducing inflammation is brought into play, and a traditional Chinese medicine composition for the treatment of vaginitis is developed. This has practical significance for solving the problem of vaginitis being difficult to cure and recurring. Summary of the invention

[0104] Take 19 g of nutrient broth powder and dissolve it in 1 L of ultrapure water and sterilize it under high pressure at 121°C for 15 min to obtain broth liquid culture medium.
[0105] 2.3 Bacterial strain recovery
[0106] Use an inoculating loop to pick Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans from the culture dish, and make continuous streaks in new culture dishes. According to growth requirements, use nutrient agar culture dishes for the first two, and inoculate Candida albicans into Sabouraud agar medium. Write the numbers and place them upside down in a 37°C constant temperature incubator. Culture Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus for 18-24 hours, and culture Candida albicans for 48 hours.
[0107] 2.4 Subculture of bacterial strains
[0108] After the recovery, the strains were passed down by line drawing in the same way until the logarithmic growth phase.
[0109] 2.5 Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determination by microbroth method
[0110] Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans that grew well were picked from the agar medium, dissolved in physiological saline, blown and mixed, and the absorbance of the bacterial suspension was measured using an enzyme marker and adjusted to OD 625nm The range of 0.08-0.1 is 0.5 McFarland point, and the bacterial density is about 1.5×10 8 CFU / mL.
[0111] The positive wash solution, the six composition sample test solutions and the solvent group were measured by the microbroth dilution method, and the concentration gradient was set to Take a 96-well microplate, add 160μL of broth liquid culture medium to the second column well, add 100μL of broth liquid culture medium to the 3rd-10th column wells, and add 200μL of broth liquid culture medium to the 11th column well, leaving it as a normal growth control without adding drug solution and bacterial solution. Take 40μL of drug solution and add it to the second column well, blow it evenly, then transfer 100μL from the second column well to the third column well and blow it evenly, and so on, dilute it in turn, blow it evenly to the 9th column well and discard 100μL, the 10th column well is used as a negative blank control, and finally take 100μL of bacterial suspension and add it to the 2nd-9th column wells and the 11th column wells in turn. Since the test samples are all colored, a control well with only drug solution and saline is set for each concentration. After adding the plates, place the plates in a 37°C constant temperature incubator with a shaker at 65 r / min for 18-24 hours and observe the growth. If the culture medium is clear or has no precipitation, it is considered sterile growth. The test drug concentration in the sterile growth test well is the MIC.

[0252] A single colony of Candida albicans with good growth was picked from the agar medium, dissolved in physiological saline, and mixed by pipetting. The absorbance of the bacterial suspension was measured with an ELISA instrument and adjusted to OD 625nm When the value is about 0.2, it is one McBurney point, and the bacterial density is about 3.0×10 8 CFU / mL.
[0253] 2.2.2 Preparation of phenol glue
[0254] In a fume hood, take an appropriate amount of solid phenol in a clean beaker, heat at 65°C to melt into liquid phenol, use a pipette to transfer 10 mL of liquid phenol to another clean beaker, slowly drop 8 mL of glycerol into the beaker, stir clockwise while adding, then add 1 g of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, stir and mix thoroughly, and dilute to 40 mL with purified water. After ultrasonic dissolution for 10 minutes, a transparent and viscous 25% phenol paste is obtained, which is wrapped in tin foil and stored at 4°C away from light.
[0255] 2.2.3 Preparation of cyclophosphamide injection
[0256] Add 10 mL of saline to the cyclophosphamide powder bottle and stir thoroughly until it is completely dissolved. Keep away from light and use it immediately after preparation.
[0257] 2.3 Rat vulvovaginal candidiasis model
[0258] The modeling group rats were subcutaneously injected with 10 mg / kg of estradiol benzoate for four consecutive days, which put the rats in a pseudoestrus state, increased the secretion of epithelial glycogen on the vaginal wall, and slightly expanded the vaginal opening. On the 5th day, 25% phenol glue (0.1 mL / 100 g) was injected into the vagina to destroy the rat vaginal mucosa. To prevent the phenol glue from overflowing, a sterile cotton ball of appropriate size was inserted into the rat vaginal opening. On the 6th to 9th days, the rat vagina was fully rinsed with normal saline to wash away the residual phenol glue. The prepared Candida albicans suspension was injected into the rat vagina at 0.1 mL / 100 g. After injection, a cotton ball soaked with the bacterial suspension was inserted, and the rat breech position was raised for 2-3 minutes to prevent the bacterial liquid from flowing out. Cyclophosphamide (30 mg / kg) was injected intraperitoneally on the 7th and 9th days to cause low immunity in rats. After 4 days of infection with Candida albicans, the vulva of the modeling rats was red, swollen and expanded, and the behavior of licking the vulva increased, accompanied by a large amount of white slag and light yellow purulent secretions. Use sterile PBS to wash the rat vagina and collect secretions. Take 5μL to plate for Gram staining and then examine the vaginal secretions under a microscope. Take 20μL to culture the colonies on Sabouraud agar medium and culture at 37℃ for 24h. The vaginal environment of the rat is destroyed and many fungi grow. At the same time, take 20μL and culture it on French Cogama Candida chromogenic medium for 48h. Candida albicans colonies of varying sizes (appearing green) can be seen, indicating that the model is successful.
[0259] 2.4 Animal grouping and drug administration
[0260] The rats with successful modeling were randomly divided into model group, bifenthrin group, Baofukang group, CFCG gel low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups, 10 rats in each group, according to the number of bacterial colony growth and the degree of vaginal swelling.
[0261] The dosages were metronidazole gel group (30 mg / kg, this is the metronidazole content in the gel), Baofukang gel (360 mg / kg, the commercially available Baofukang gel does not indicate the drug content, this is the overall weight of the gel), low dose (25 mg / kg), medium dose (50 mg / kg), and high dose (100 mg / kg).
[0262] After stimulating rats to urinate with a sterile gun tip at a fixed time every day, the blank group and the model control group were given an equal amount of normal saline, and the other drug groups used a rat sterile gavage needle and syringe to inject the drugs into the rat vagina according to their respective corresponding doses, once a day. After administration, a sterile cotton ball was inserted to prevent exposure, and the vagina was left for about 2-3 minutes. The drug was administered for a total of 7 days.
[0263] 2.5 Indicator Observation
[0264] 2.5.1 General status observation
[0265] On the second day after the administration, the rats in each group were weighed, and their hair condition, mental state, activity level, etc. were observed to compare their general conditions.
[0266] 2.5.2 Candida albicans colony count
[0267] The rats were briefly anesthetized by inhalation of isoflurane, and the vaginal opening and nearby fur were disinfected with iodine cotton balls. 100 μL of sterile PBS solution was drawn with a pipette and injected into the rats' vagina for full irrigation. The solution was washed three times in total, and the irrigation fluid was combined in a sterile centrifuge tube.
[0268] Take 20 μL of vaginal lavage fluid in a sterile dish, cool the prepared French Cogama colorimetric medium to about 40°C and pour it into the dish. Shake in a cross direction to mix well and then invert it in a 37°C incubator for 48 hours. Count and compare the number of Candida albicans colonization in the vagina of each group of rats.
[0269] 2.5.3 Gram staining of lavage fluid
[0270] (1) Smear fixation: Take 5 μL of the above rat vaginal lavage fluid and evenly apply it on an area of about 10 mm in diameter on a glass slide. Dry it at room temperature, and fix it by quickly passing the dried glass slide over the outer flame of an alcohol lamp 3-4 times with tweezers. Touch the bottom of the glass slide with the back of your hand from time to time. The appropriate temperature is when it is not hot to the touch.
[0271] (2) Primary dyeing: Add ammonium oxalate crystal violet dye solution to the fixed sample and dye for 1 minute. Then wash away the excess dye with distilled water until no floating color remains. Then gently absorb the water with filter paper.
[0272] (3) Mordanting: Drop iodine solution on the sample (cover the sample) and dye for 1 minute. Gently rinse the excess dye with distilled water until there is no floating color, and gently absorb the water with filter paper.
[0273] (4) Decolorization: Add 3-4 drops of 95% ethanol and shake gently for 20-30 seconds to decolorize. After decolorization, rinse gently with distilled water and gently dry with filter paper.
[0274] (5) Re-staining: Add safranin dye solution for 1 minute, then rinse off the floating color with distilled water and gently dry with filter paper.
[0275] (6) Microscope observation: The stained vaginal secretion smear was naturally dried and observed under a 500X microscope to compare the cleanliness of the rat vaginal secretions and the colonization of Candida albicans in the vagina.
[0276] 2.5.4 Visual observation of vaginal tissue
[0277] The rats were fasted on the first day after the administration. The vaginal tissues were dissected and weighed with an electronic balance on the second day. The excess blood was washed away with saline and then placed on a glass plate for observation. The secretions, swelling, vaginal folds and mucosal damage were scored according to the table below.
[0278]
[0279] 2.5.5 Pathological observation of vaginal tissue
[0280] Take 1 / 3 of the vaginal tissue for pathological fixation, sectioning, and staining observation, and the specific operation is as follows. The other 2 / 3 is stored at -80°C for future use.
[0281] 1) Sampling: Use a blade to trim the fixed tissue neatly in a fume hood, mark it and place it in a dehydration box.
[0282] 2) Dehydration: Use a dehydrator to dehydrate the tissue using different gradients of alcohol.
[0283] 3) Embedding: Place the dehydrated wax-soaked tissue into an embedding machine and cool it in a -20°C freezer. After the wax solidifies, remove the wax block from the embedding frame and trim it.
[0284] 4) Sectioning: Use a paraffin slicer to slice the tissue, with a thickness of 4 μm. After the tissue is sliced, float it on 40°C warm water on a slide machine to flatten the tissue, pick up the tissue with a slide, and bake it at 60°C for 2 hours.
[0285] 5) HE staining:
[0286] (a) Dewaxing to water: Place the sections in xylene I for 15 min → xylene II for 15 min → anhydrous ethanol I for 5 min → anhydrous ethanol II for 5 min → 95% alcohol for 5 min → 90% alcohol for 5 min → 80% alcohol for 5 min → 70% alcohol for 5 min → wash with distilled water.
[0287] (b) Hematoxylin staining of cell nuclei: After the sections are stained in Harris hematoxylin for 5 to 10 minutes, they are washed, differentiated in hydrochloric acid alcohol for a few seconds and cleaned, and then rinsed after the blueing solution turns blue for a few seconds.
[0288] (c) Eosin staining of cytoplasm: Place the sections in eosin staining solution for 1-5 minutes.
[0289] (d) Dehydration and sealing: Dehydrate the slices in 95% alcohol I for 5 min → 95% alcohol II for 5 min → anhydrous ethanol I for 5 min → anhydrous ethanol II for 5 min → xylene I for 5 min → xylene II for 5 min to make them transparent. Take out the slices and air dry them, then seal the slices with neutral gum.
[0290] 6) Observe the sections under a microscope, collect and analyze images. Score based on basic indicators such as mucosal lesions, edema, exudation, inflammatory cell infiltration, etc. No symptoms are scored as 0 points, mild symptoms are scored as 1 point, moderate symptoms are scored as 2 points, and severe symptoms are scored as 3 points. The sum of the scores is the total score of the lesion.
[0291] 2.5.6 Data Analysis
[0292] SPSS 26.0 software was used for data processing, and one-way analysis of variance was used to compare multiple groups of data that conformed to normal distribution. P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 was considered statistically significant. GraphPad Prism 9.0 software was used to draw graphs of the analysis results.
[0293] 3 Experimental results
[0294] 3.1 General status observation
[0295] The rats in the blank group had a normal diet, were agile, had smooth and shiny hair, and were generally in good condition. The rats in the model group were sluggish, lacked energy, and had significantly reduced food and water intake, significantly decreased body weight, and had severe hair loss and hair choking on the body surface, and had obvious licking of the vulva. The rats in the bisoprolol gel group, Baofukang gel group, and CFCG low, medium, and high dose groups had significant improvements in spirit, food intake, and hair condition compared with the model group.
[0296] 3.2 Candida albicans colony count
[0297] In this experiment, vaginal lavage fluid was subjected to colorimetric culture of Candida albicans. The results showed that no Candida albicans grew in the lavage fluid of the blank group, and the colony count was 0. Compared with the blank group, the number of Candida albicans colonies cultured in the vaginal lavage fluid of rats in the model group increased significantly (P < 0.01), indicating that Candida albicans was successfully colonized.
[0298] After 3 days of drug administration, the colony counts in the low, medium and high dose CFCG groups decreased significantly, and the difference was statistically significant compared with the model group (P<0.01).
[0299] After 7 days of administration, the colony counts in the low-, medium- and high-dose CFCG groups were significantly decreased compared with the model group (P < 0.01), and all rats in the medium- and high-dose groups turned negative.
[0300] This indicates that each medication group has an effect on resisting vaginal colonization of Candida albicans.

[0304] Note: Compared with the blank group, ## P<0.01; compared with the model group, * P<0.05, **P<0.01.
[0305] 3.3 Gram staining of vaginal lavage fluid
[0306] (1) Candida albicans spores and hyphae
[0307] The results showed that the blank group had normal vaginal epithelial cell morphology, with a large number of lactobacilli attached, and no Candida albicans spores and hyphae were detected; compared with the blank group, the model group had abnormal epithelial cell morphology, with obvious coexistence of Candida albicans spores and hyphae, and hyphae penetrating vaginal epithelial cells to cause damage. A small number of Candida albicans hyphae (black arrows) were found in the secretions of a few rats in the low-dose CFCG group, and no Candida albicans spores and hyphae were detected in the medium- and high-dose groups; no Candida albicans spores and hyphae were detected in the bisoprolol gel group and the Baofukang gel group. See for details. Figure 1 .
[0308] (2) Lactobacillus status
[0309] The colonization and dominance of lactic acid bacteria are the basic characteristics of healthy vaginal flora. Vulvovaginal candidiasis is characterized by a decrease in the normal dominant bacteria in the vagina - lactobacilli - and an increase in pathogenic bacteria such as Candida albicans.
[0310] The experimental results showed that the morphology of vaginal epithelial cells in the blank group was normal, and most lactobacilli were observed attached to epithelial cells in the visual field, with no obvious foreign bacteria. In the model group, multiple Candida albicans spores were detected adhering to epithelial cells in the visual field. Candida albicans replaced the dominant position of lactobacilli and transformed from the spore phase to the hyphae phase. The internal environment was disordered and the vaginal cleanliness was poor. Lactobacilli in the medium and high dose groups of CFCG recovered to varying degrees, and most of them adhered to vaginal epithelial cells, with good vaginal cleanliness. The vaginal lavage fluid smear in the bisoprolol gel group had good cleanliness, but the lack of lactobacilli was clearly observed. See for details. Figure 1 .
[0311] 3.4 Comparison of vaginal opening status
[0312] The vulva of rats in the blank group was not obviously red and swollen, the vagina was white and translucent, there was no abnormal secretion, and the tissue was elastic; the vaginal opening of rats in the model group was congested and swollen, the secretion increased, the vaginal appearance was ulcerated and exuded, the tissue was inelastic, and the rats screamed when touched; after administration of bisoprolol gel, Baofukang gel, and CFCG, the vulva secretion of rats was significantly less, and the redness and swelling were significantly improved. Among them, the improvement effect of bisoprolol gel on vulvar swelling was poorer than that of the medium-dose and high-dose CFCG groups.
[0313] 3.5 Comparison of vaginal tissue and mucosa
[0314] The vaginal tissues of rats were observed with naked eyes after dissection. The tissue mucosa of rats in the blank group was intact, with normal folds and no obvious swelling. The tissue mucosa of rats in the model group was obviously swollen, with ulcers and bleeding spots, accompanied by more abnormal secretions, and the inflammation score reached 4.71 points, which was significantly different from that in the blank group (P < 0.01). The inflammation scores of each drug-treated group were reduced after treatment, among which the low-, medium- and high-dose CFCG groups and the bisoprolol gel group were significantly different from the model group (P < 0.01).
[0315] By calculating the vaginal tissue mass index of each group, it was found that the vaginal / body mass index of the model group was significantly higher than that of the blank group (P < 0.01). It was considered that inflammation caused tissue edema and abnormal secretions, which led to the increase in the vaginal / body mass index. After treatment in each medication group, the vaginal / body mass index decreased, indicating a decrease in inflammatory response. Compared with the model group, the bisoprolol gel group (P < 0.05) and the CFCG low, medium, and high dose groups all decreased significantly (P < 0.01), and there was no significant difference between the Baofukang gel group and the model group (P > 0.05). Compared with the bisoprolol gel group, the vaginal / body mass of the CFCG high dose group decreased (P < 0.01). See details. Figure 2 and Table 11.

[0318] Note: Compared with the blank group, ## P<0.01; compared with the model group, * P<0.05, ** P<0.01. Compared with the bisoprolol gel group, && P<0.01.
[0319] 3.6 HE pathological staining results
[0320] (1) Observation under an optical microscope
[0321] HE staining of each group showed that the blank group had intact tissue structures of each layer, clear mucosal epithelial cell stratification, normal thickness, no degeneration and necrosis of the mucosal epithelium, and no obvious congestion, edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the lamina propria. In the model group, the mucosal epithelium was degenerated, eroded, necrotic, and missing, with exudation, neutrophils and necrotic inflammatory cells, and a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated both the lamina propria and the submucosal layer, mainly neutrophils, with mild congestion.
[0322] The vaginal mucosa of rats in the low- and medium-dose CFCG groups was well repaired, the basal cells of the animals were partially irregular, the lamina propria was slightly to moderately infiltrated with polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and the blood vessels were slightly congested. The mucosal epithelium of the high-dose group was completely repaired, the lamina propria was almost free of polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration, and no vascular congestion or edema was observed; the vaginal mucosal epithelium of rats in the bisoprolol gel group was slightly degenerated and eroded locally, with occasional shedding, loss of the keratinized layer, slight to moderate infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes in the lamina propria, and mild congestion; the vaginal mucosal epithelium of rats in the Baofukang gel group was slightly degenerated locally, the lamina propria was slightly to mildly infiltrated with polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes, and mild congestion. See for details. Figure 3 .
[0323] (2) Pathological scoring
[0324] The rat vaginal specimens were scored according to basic indicators such as mucosal lesions, edema, exudation, and inflammatory cell infiltration. The statistical results showed that there was no obvious mucosal lesion, edema, and exudation in the blank group; the mucosal lesions, edema, exudation, polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration, and necrotic inflammatory cells in the model group were significantly increased (P < 0.01). The pathological histological scores of the CFCG low, medium, and high groups and the Baofukang gel group were significantly reduced (P < 0.01), and the total score of the bisoprolol gel group was significantly improved compared with the model group (P < 0.05). Compared with the bisoprolol gel group, the total scores of the CFCG low, medium, and high dose groups were significantly reduced; compared with Baofukang, the total score of the CFCG high dose group was significantly reduced.

[0328] Note: Compared with the blank group, ## P<0.01; compared with the model group, * P<0.05, ** P<0.01; compared with dimethoate, & P<0.05, && P<0.01. Compared with Baofukang, $ P<0.05.
[0329] In summary, the above test results show that composition F (CFCG) has a good therapeutic effect on the rat VVC model caused by Candida albicans, can reduce the colonization of Candida albicans, adjust the vaginal flora, repair the vaginal mucosa, reduce the inflammatory response, etc., and the effect is better than that of mefenamic acid or fenvalerate.
