Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to application of a petroleum ether extract of Eleutherococcus scabra in preparing an osteoclast differentiation inhibitor. Background Art

[0002] Bone metabolism mainly includes two processes: bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. When osteoclasts are overactivated, that is, bone resorption is greater than bone formation, the original bone metabolism balance is broken, and symptoms such as decreased bone density and bone mass will occur. Overactivation of osteoclasts is the main pathogenic mechanism of diseases such as periprosthetic bone dissolution, osteoporosis, and tumor bone metastasis.

[0003] Artificial joint replacement is an important method for the treatment of osteoarthritis in clinical practice. It can effectively relieve joint pain and has the effect of rebuilding joint function. However, periprosthetic bone dissolution leads to aseptic loosening of the prosthesis, which is the main complication after artificial joint replacement and the main reason for artificial joint revision. It is currently a hot topic and difficulty in orthopedics.

[0004] In osteoporosis, due to the high activity of osteoclast bone resorption in bone metabolism, osteoblast bone formation slows down, resulting in decreased bone mass and degradation of bone tissue microstructure (cancellous bone trabeculae become thinner, broken, and reduced in number; cortical bone becomes porous and thinner), resulting in increased bone fragility and increased risk of fracture. Therefore, inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption is an effective way to treat osteoporosis. However, bone resorption inhibitors currently used in clinical practice, such as bisphosphonates, have an increased risk of causing atypical femoral fractures. Therefore, it is of great significance and value to study new drugs that inhibit bone resorption from traditional Chinese medicine.

[0005] Elephantopus tomentosus L. is the dried whole herb of Elephantopus tomentosus L., a plant of the genus Elephantopus in the Asteraceae family. It is also known as ox tongue grass and is mainly distributed in tropical areas such as South China and Southwest China, such as Fujian and Guangdong. The whole herb of Elephantopus tomentosus is used as medicine. It is cool in nature, pungent and bitter in taste, and has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, cooling blood, promoting dampness and reducing swelling. It is mainly used clinically to treat diseases such as tonsillitis, colds, hepatitis, and carbuncle. However, there is little research on this plant at present. Therefore, searching for the active ingredients from the traditional Chinese medicine Elephantopus tomentosus has broad application prospects and important application value for the development of drugs for the prevention and treatment of bone-related diseases such as prosthetic loosening and osteolysis, osteoporosis, and tumor bone metastasis. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a new pharmaceutical use of an extract of Eleutherodactylum scabra, namely, the use of an extract of Eleutherodactylum scabra petroleum ether in the preparation of an osteoclast differentiation inhibitor. The use of the extract of Eleutherodactylum scabra petroleum ether in the preparation of an osteoclast differentiation inhibitor is first discovered and has the advantages of significant effect and the like.

[0008] Furthermore, the ethanol solution is an ethanol aqueous solution with a volume fraction of 70-95%. Preferably, the ethanol solution is an ethanol aqueous solution with a volume fraction of 95%.

[0009] Furthermore, the ratio of the amount of Elaeagnus alba to the ethanol solution is 1 g: 8-20 mL. Preferably, the ratio of the amount of Elaeagnus alba to the ethanol solution is 1 g: 15 mL.

[0010] Furthermore, the extraction in step (1) refers to extraction by cold soaking method, and the extraction time is 3 to 10 days. Preferably, the extraction time is 5 days.

[0011] Furthermore, in step (2), the ratio of the total extract of Elaeagnus alba to water is 1 g: 15-30 mL. Preferably, in step (2), the ratio of the total extract of Elaeagnus alba to water is 1 g: 20 mL.

[0013] Furthermore, the osteoclast differentiation inhibitor is used to prepare one or more drugs for preventing and / or treating osteoporosis, osteolysis, periprosthetic bone dissolution, tumor bone metastasis, inflammatory bone loss, and periodontitis inflammatory bone resorption diseases.

[0049] Primary mononuclear cells were extracted from the bone marrow of 4-6 week-old C57BL / 6J mice and incubated at 37°C with 5% CO 2 After culturing overnight in the incubator, the supernatant was collected, centrifuged, and the cells were resuspended. 6 The cells were seeded at a density of 100 / mL in a 96-well plate. After culturing for 1 day in α-MEM complete medium containing 20 ng / mL M-CSF, the medium was replaced with α-MEM complete medium containing osteoclast induction factor M-CSF (20 ng / mL), RANKL (15 ng / mL) and different concentrations of white flower dandelion extract (1μg / mL, 10μg / mL, 100μg / mL, 1000μg / mL). Three replicate wells were set up in each group, and new medium and drugs were replaced every 2 days. After 5 days of administration, the medium containing the compound was removed, rinsed with cold PBS, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde solution, and TRAP staining was performed with the TRAP detection kit. The nuclei of mature multinucleated osteoclasts induced can be dyed wine red by the staining solution. Finally, the cells with more than 3 nuclei produced by fusion were counted and the area was quantified under a visible light inverted microscope.

Among them, the petroleum ether extract of Example 1 and the n-hexane extract of Comparative Example 2 showed a significant inhibitory effect on the number of multinuclear osteoclasts at a concentration of 1000 ng / mL (**p<0.01, ***p<0.001), among which the petroleum ether extract of Example 1 had a better inhibitory effect on the number of osteoclasts than the n-hexane extract of Comparative Example 2, while other test groups such as the dichloromethane extract of Comparative Example 1 and the cyclohexane extract of Comparative Example 3 had no significant inhibitory effect on the number of osteoclasts. Figure 3 In (B and C), the blank control group was used as the control. The osteoclast area of ​​the control group increased significantly. The petroleum ether extract of Example 1 and the n-hexane extract of Comparative Example 2 showed a significant inhibitory effect on the area of ​​multinuclear osteoclast formation at a concentration of 1000 ng / mL (**p<0.01, ***p<0.001). The inhibitory effect of the petroleum ether extract of Example 1 on the osteoclast area was significantly better than that of the n-hexane extract of Comparative Example 2, while the other groups such as the dichloromethane extract of Comparative Example 1 and the cyclohexane extract of Comparative Example 3 had no significant inhibitory effect on the osteoclast area.

[0051] The healthy male C57BL / 6J mice used in the following experimental examples had an animal license number of SYXK (Guangdong) 2022-0174 and were purchased from Guangdong Weitong Lihua Experimental Animal Technology Co., Ltd.

[0052] Experimental Example 4 Example 1 Experiment on the inhibitory effect of petroleum ether extract of Eleutherococcus scabra on skull osteolysis induced by titanium particles

[0053] We further selected the petroleum ether group that inhibited osteoclast differentiation activity better than other groups in the in vitro cell experiment to carry out the in vivo cranial bone dissolution inhibitory activity evaluation test. 8-week-old male C57BL / 6J mice, weighing 25±2g, were selected and raised in an SPF animal room with free access to food and water. After one week of adaptive feeding, the mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: sham operation group, osteolysis model group, low-dose group of petroleum ether extract in Example 1, and high-dose group of petroleum ether extract in Example 1, with 8 mice in each group, for a total of 32 mice.

[0054] After the mice were anesthetized with isoflurane, the hair on the top of the skull was shaved with a shaver, and the skin on the top of the skull was disinfected with 75% ethanol. Then, a 1.5 cm long incision was made along the midline of the skull with a scalpel. 30 mg of Ti particles (30 μL) were evenly dropped on the surface of the skull, and the surgical incision was sutured to establish a mouse skull osteolysis model. The same volume of sterile PBS was dropped on the surface of the skull in the sham operation group. The drug was intraperitoneally injected on the second day after surgery. The sham operation group and the osteolysis model group were intraperitoneally injected with an equal amount of drug solvent, once a day, for 14 consecutive days. After 14 days, the experimental animals were killed, and the skull specimens were collected. After being fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 48 h, the Ti particles on the surface of the skull were carefully removed. A high-resolution Micro-CT instrument (Skyscan 1176; Bruker, Antwerp, Belgium) was used with a scanning resolution of 10.4 μm, an X-ray voltage of 55 kV, and a current of 145 μA. The circular area centered on the median suture of the skull was used as the region of interest (ROI). Bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume fraction (BV / TV), bone surface area to bone volume ratio (BS / BV) and trabecular thickness (Tb. Th) were calculated using CTAn software; 3D reconstructed images were constructed using CTvox.

[0055] The results are as follows Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown. The results showed that compared with the sham operation group, the osteolysis model group caused a large amount of bone loss in the skull of mice, BMD, BV / TV and Th.Tb were significantly reduced, BS / BV was significantly increased, and the difference was statistically significant (***p<0.001). After the high-dose group of petroleum ether extract in Example 1 was administered, the bone loss of the skull of mice was significantly improved. Compared with the osteolysis model group, BMD, BV / TV and Th.Tb were significantly increased, BS / BV was significantly reduced, and the difference was statistically significant (#p<0.05, ##p<0.01), and no significant improvement was shown in other groups.
