Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preventing and treating ventricular remodeling after ACS, and particularly relates to the application of linoleoylcarnitine in screening drugs having a regulating effect on the extension of the proinflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients, as well as a screening method and drugs. Background Art
[0002] Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a group of clinical syndromes caused by acute myocardial ischemia. Ventricular remodeling after ACS is one of the main causes of heart failure (HF). The regulation of adaptive remodeling and adverse remodeling is the key to prevent and treat ventricular remodeling after ACS. The balance between adaptive remodeling and adverse remodeling is currently a new therapeutic target for preventing and treating ventricular remodeling after ACS.
[0003] The innate immune response is an important regulator between adaptive and maladaptive remodeling and consists of three key phases: pro-inflammatory, anti-inflammatory, reparative, and maturation.
[0004] Monocytes (Mo) play an important role in both the pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory repair phases of ventricular remodeling. Studies have shown that high levels of pro-inflammatory Mo in the peripheral blood of ACS patients are associated with prolonged pro-inflammatory phases and impaired left ventricular function recovery. Therefore, it is very important to find substances that reflect the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients and find methods to inhibit the high levels of pro-inflammatory Mo to inhibit the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after ACS and prevent and treat ventricular remodeling after ACS. At present, research on balancing the pro-inflammatory phase and anti-inflammatory repair phase in the innate immune response after ACS has not been translated into effective clinical treatment for myocardial ischemic injury. Finding drugs that can balance the pro-inflammatory phase and anti-inflammatory repair phase in the innate immune response after ACS and regulate the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients will provide new targets for inhibiting the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after ACS and preventing and treating ventricular remodeling after ACS. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides the use of linoleoylcarnitine in screening drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients, as well as a screening method and a drug. The present invention proposes for the first time to use linoleoylcarnitine to screen drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients. The drugs screened out by the screening method provided by the present invention can be used to regulate the polarization of Mo, inhibit the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase, thereby reducing the adverse remodeling of the heart after ACS and promoting the effective recovery of cardiac function.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] The first aspect of the present invention provides the use of linoleoylcarnitine in screening drugs having a regulatory effect on the prolongation of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.
[0008] The present invention first discovered through research that linoleylcarnitine in plasma of ACS patients after PCI is related to the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase and fatty acid metabolism disorder in energy metabolism disorder, and its content can reflect the degree of myocardial ischemic injury and aggravate the inhibition of hypoxia / reoxygenation on the activity of myocardial cells. Therefore, linoleylcarnitine can be used to screen drugs that have a regulating effect on the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase of ACS patients after PCI.
[0009] The second aspect of the present invention is a method for screening a drug having a regulatory effect on the prolongation of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients, which specifically comprises the following steps:
[0010] S1. Co-culture the cardiomyocytes with the drug to be screened for 8 to 12 hours;
[0011] S2, replacing the culture medium with serum-free and sugar-free DMEM medium containing linoleylcarnitine and the drug to be screened for hypoxic culture for at least 12 hours;
[0012] S3. Replace the culture medium with complete DMEM medium containing linoleoylcarnitine and the drug to be screened. After 4-6 hours of reoxygenation culture, detect the cell activity and screen out the drugs that significantly improve the activity of myocardial cells based on the cell activity, that is, the drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolonged pro-inflammatory period after PCI in ACS patients.
[0013] Based on the complex balance between the pro-inflammatory phase and the anti-inflammatory repair phase, the present invention provides the above-mentioned method for reverse screening of cells for drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolongation of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients. The screened drugs can be used to regulate the polarization of Mo, inhibit the prolongation of the pro-inflammatory phase, thereby alleviating the adverse remodeling of the heart after ACS and promoting the effective recovery of cardiac function.
[0014] Here, "significant improvement" means that the value of cell activity produces a significant difference (such as P<0.05).
[0015] Preferably, the content of linoleylcarnitine in the serum-free and sugar-free DMEM medium is 20 μmol / L.
[0016] Preferably, the cardiomyocytes are H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
[0017] Preferably, the hypoxic culture time is 12 hours.
[0018] Preferably, the reoxygenation culture time is 4 hours.
[0019] Preferably, the method for detecting cell activity in S3 can adopt CCK-8 method. Exemplarily, the cell activity detection can be performed according to the following operation: after the reoxygenation culture in S3 is completed, the original drug-containing serum is aspirated and discarded, and a complete culture medium containing 10% CCK-8 reagent is added again, and the culture medium is incubated at 37°C in the dark for 1 to 2 hours, and the OD value is detected. The drug that improves the activity of cardiomyocytes is screened according to the OD value.
[0020] The third aspect of the present invention provides the use of the above method in screening active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine that have an improving effect on the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.
[0021] By using the above method and the model of linoleoylcarnitine aggravating myocardial cell damage caused by hypoxia / reoxygenation, it is possible to screen out active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine that can inhibit linoleoylcarnitine from aggravating myocardial cell damage caused by hypoxia / reoxygenation and significantly improve myocardial cell damage caused by hypoxia / reoxygenation.
[0022] The fourth aspect of the present invention provides a drug that has a regulating effect on the prolongation of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients, wherein the drug contains at least one of salvianolic acid B, cryptotanshinone, tanshinone ⅡA, salvianolic acid C, salvianolic acid F, and asiatic acid. The above 6 active ingredients have the effect of significantly improving the effect of linoleylcarnitine exacerbating hypoxia / reoxygenation myocardial cell injury (P<0.05).
[0023] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides the use of a Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) extract in the preparation of a medicament for improving the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.
[0024] Preferably, the preparation method of the Danshen extract is: extracting Danshen slices with 50% to 70% v / v ethanol aqueous solution by refluxing, and drying the obtained extract. Further preferably, the concentration of the ethanol aqueous solution is 60% v / v.
[0025] The salvia miltiorrhiza extract prepared by the preparation method contains 5 of the above 6 active ingredients, which can significantly improve the inhibitory activity of linoleylcarnitine on hypoxia / reoxygenation cardiomyocytes, increase the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduce the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), improve the lipid peroxidation damage of linoleylcarnitine to hypoxia / reoxygenation cardiomyocytes, and have therapeutic potential for the damage of hypoxia / reoxygenation to cardiomyocytes aggravated by linoleylcarnitine. After studying the MI / RI mouse model, it was found that the salvia miltiorrhiza extract can significantly increase the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular short axis shortening rate (LVFS) of mice, significantly reduce the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVID,d) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVID,s), and improve the cardiac function of MI / RI mice in a dose-dependent manner. 4g / kg and 2g / kg of salvia miltiorrhiza extract can significantly reduce the inflammatory infiltration of myocardial tissue in MI / RI mice and improve myocardial fibrosis. Through the analysis of metabolic differentials and pathway enrichment, it was found that Danshen extract can regulate the metabolic disorders of MI / RI mice by improving linoleylcarnitine accumulation, promoting fatty acid oxidation, inhibiting glycolysis, etc.; it can increase the SOD activity of MI / RI mice, reduce the MDA content, and improve lipid peroxidation damage. In addition, Danshen extract can also inhibit the expression of proinflammatory factors such as IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ and proinflammatory Mo-related chemokines such as GM-CSF, MCP-1 / CCL2, MCP-3 / CCL7 in the myocardium of MI / RI mice, thereby inhibiting the polarization of Mo to the proinflammatory type, inhibiting the extension of the proinflammatory phase after ACS, and regulating the balance between the proinflammatory phase and the anti-inflammatory repair phase in the innate immune response.
[0026] More preferably, the preparation method of the salvia miltiorrhiza extract is as follows: extracting the salvia miltiorrhiza slices twice with 60% v / v ethanol aqueous solution under reflux, combining the obtained extracts, and drying.
[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention first discovered that linoleylcarnitine in the plasma of ACS patients after PCI is related to fatty acid metabolism disorders in the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase and energy metabolism disorders, and its content can reflect the degree of myocardial ischemic damage, and will aggravate the inhibition of hypoxia / reoxygenation on the activity of myocardial cells, so it can be used to screen drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients. The theoretical basis of the method for screening drugs that have an improving effect on the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients provided by the present invention is the correlation between linoleylcarnitine and fatty acid metabolism disorders in the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase and energy metabolism disorders found by the present invention through research, as well as the complex balance between the pro-inflammatory phase and the anti-inflammatory repair phase. The drugs screened out by this method can be used to regulate the polarization of Mo, inhibit the prolonged pro-inflammatory phase, and then reduce the adverse remodeling of the heart after ACS, and promote the effective recovery of cardiac function. The salvia miltiorrhiza extract contains a variety of active monomers of traditional Chinese medicine screened out by this method. The study found that Salvia miltiorrhiza extract can improve the accumulation of long-chain acylcarnitines such as linoleoylcarnitine in the heart by promoting fatty acid oxidation and inhibiting glycolysis in MI / RI mice, and can also affect the polarization of Mo toward the pro-inflammatory type and regulate the balance between the pro-inflammatory phase and the anti-inflammatory repair phase in the innate immune response after ACS. The results of this study confirmed the feasibility of the above screening method and provided a new therapeutic idea for the clinical prevention and treatment of ventricular remodeling after ACS by combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0054] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0055] The present invention has found through research that the content of linoleylcarnitine in the plasma of ACS patients is related to the extension of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients, which can reflect the degree of myocardial ischemic injury after ACS, and reproduced and verified in the model of ischemia-reperfusion in C57BL / 6J mice that linoleylcarnitine does exist and accumulates in the heart tissue, and the accumulation of linoleylcarnitine in the heart tissue is related to myocardial injury. Based on the H9c2 myocardial cell hypoxia / reoxygenation model, the present invention has found that linoleylcarnitine has a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the activity of hypoxic / reoxygenated H9c2 myocardial cells. The present invention has also found through research that linoleylcarnitine has a significant inhibitory effect on the SOD activity of hypoxic / reoxygenated H9c2 myocardial cells, and can increase the MDA content of hypoxic / reoxygenated H9c2 myocardial cells. MDA is a lipid peroxide produced after the biological membrane is attacked by ROS, and its level indirectly reflects the degree of lipid peroxidation damage in the cell; SOD is a key antioxidant enzyme in the cell and an important indicator for evaluating the antioxidant capacity of the cell. Therefore, linoleylcarnitine can aggravate lipid peroxidation injury in H9c2 cardiomyocytes after hypoxia / reoxygenation.
[0056] With its diversified ingredients, multi-pathway regulation and multi-target effects, traditional Chinese medicines that replenish qi and promote blood circulation have significant advantages and broad application prospects in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Not only are the drugs flexible to use, but they also have fewer side effects. They have the advantages of multi-target, multi-angle and multi-mechanism improvements in inhibiting Mo-related inflammatory reactions and preventing and treating ventricular remodeling after ACS. This part of the study starts from the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicines that replenish qi and promote blood circulation, and focuses on the effects of potential biomarkers on cardiomyocytes, and reversely searches for traditional Chinese medicines that have protective effects on cardiomyocytes.
[0057] The present invention experimentally studies the H9c2 cardiomyocyte model of hypoxia / reoxygenation based on linoleylcarnitine intervention, and screens 39 active ingredients of qi-invigorating and blood-activating Chinese medicines from qi-invigorating and blood-activating Chinese medicines. The results show that 8 active ingredients, including salvianolic acid B, cryptotanshinone, and ginsenoside Rg3, can significantly improve the activity of H9c2 cardiomyocytes hypoxia / reoxygenation intervened by linoleylcarnitine. The above 8 active ingredients are given on the basis of H9c2 cardiomyocytes hypoxia / reoxygenation intervened by linoleylcarnitine, and it is found that 6 active ingredients, including salvianolic acid B, cryptotanshinone, and tanshinone ⅡA salvia miltiorrhiza, have a protective effect on the activity of H9c2 cardiomyocytes hypoxia / reoxygenation after linoleylcarnitine intervention, and 5 of them are effective active ingredients of salvia miltiorrhiza.
[0058] The present invention found through experimental research that the salvia miltiorrhiza extract can improve the activity inhibition and lipid peroxidation damage of linoleoylcarnitine on hypoxia / reoxygenation H9c2 cardiomyocytes, and may have a certain therapeutic potential for fatty acid metabolism disorders and inflammation such as linoleoylcarnitine accumulation.
[0059] Based on the above research, the embodiments of the present invention provide the use of linoleoylcarnitine in screening drugs that have a regulatory effect on the extension of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.

After 4-6 hours of reoxygenation culture, detect the cell activity and screen out the drugs that significantly improve the activity of myocardial cells based on the cell activity, that is, the drugs that have a regulatory effect on the prolonged pro-inflammatory period after PCI in ACS patients.
[0064] The embodiment of the present invention also provides the use of the above method in screening active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine that have an improving effect on the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase caused by the prolongation of the proinflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.
[0065] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a drug that has a regulating effect on the extension of the pro-inflammatory phase after PCI in ACS patients.

All the above animals were raised in the SPF-grade animal room of the Experimental Animal Center of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, with a room temperature of 20-25℃ and a relative humidity of 40-60%. The feed was provided by the animal center and was sterilized granular feed. Drinking bottles filled with clean tap water were placed for mice to drink freely. The drinking bottles were changed daily, and the light and dark environments were alternated for 12 hours each. Before the experiment, all mice were adaptively fed, had free drinking water, had no adverse reactions, and were included in the experiment with normal eating, drinking and activities.
[0134] 1.1 Preparation of mouse ischemia-reperfusion model
[0135] The specific steps are as follows:
[0136] (1) The day before modeling, the mice were skinned and depilated from the neck and chest. After intraperitoneal injection of tribromoethanol for anesthesia, the mice were fixed on a heated operating table, intubated and assisted with breathing by a ventilator, with a respiratory rate of 120 times / min and a tidal volume of 0.2 mL.
[0137] (2) Thoracotomy: After the mouse breathes evenly, make a transverse incision on the chest and use curved forceps to bluntly separate the cortex, muscle and other tissues to expose the ribs and intercostal spaces. Clamp the lower edge of the fourth rib with bone forceps, and use curved forceps to enter the chest cavity at an angle of 20 degrees. Expand the curved forceps, place a chest expander, and adjust the field of view.
[0138] (3) Ligation: Before ligation, place a reperfusion thread above the LAD, use a 7-0 suture needle to tie a loose knot 2-3 mm below the lower edge of the left atrial appendage to ligate the LAD. The whitening of the myocardium in the left ventricular area indicates that the ligation is successful. Time for 45 minutes, close the chest and ventilate. Use a 5-0 suture needle to suture the skin, disinfect with iodine, and try to stop the ventilator. After the mouse breathes evenly, remove the ventilator and place the mouse on an electric blanket.
[0139] (4) Reperfusion: 45 minutes after successful ligation, the mouse's cardiac function was tested by ultrasound, and then the slipknot was opened for reperfusion. After reperfusion, the mouse was placed on an electric blanket and waited for awakening.

[0141] According to body weight, mice were randomly divided into sham group (Sham), model group (Model), positive drug group (Asipirin), SM extract low-dose group, SM extract medium-dose group, and SM extract high-dose group, with a total of 6 groups, 15 in each group. Each group of mice was given oral administration, starting from 5 days before modeling, once a day, and continuously until the third day after modeling. According to the clinical drug dose (2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia dose: 10-15g / 70kg / d) and the conversion relationship between the mouse dose and the human dose, the raw drug doses of SM extract in the high, medium and low groups were 4g / kg, 2g / kg and 1g / kg, respectively. Among them, 2g / kg is approximately the clinical equivalent dose. The mice in the positive control group were gavaged with 0.2% CMC-Na before modeling and 13mg / kg of aspirin after modeling. The intervention was performed by gavage of 0.1mL per 10g body weight, and the sham group and the model group were given the same volume of 0.2% CMC-Na. The mice were weighed once a day, and the dosing volume was adjusted in time according to the changes in body weight (Table 4).

[0182] The principal component analysis results are as follows Fig.11 As shown, the QC samples clustered together, indicating that the instrument had good precision during the run.
[0183] Compared with principal component analysis, OPLS-DA can more clearly show the differences between pairs. Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown in the figure, there is significant separation between each two groups, whether in plasma or heart samples, indicating that the metabolite abundance between each two groups measured by UHPLC / Q-Orbitrap-MS is significantly different. The permutation test analysis results show that the R 2 The intercept is greater than zero, Q 2 The intercept is less than zero, indicating that the model is not overfitted and is reliable, with good predictive ability. The identified metabolites with VIP>1 and P<0.05 are marked in red in the S-Plot, and these are considered to be potential differential metabolites.
[0184] In OPLS-DA analysis, R 2 X represents the explanatory power of the model on the X variable, R 2 Y represents the explanatory power of the model for the Y variable, Q 2 The predictability of the model and the differences between groups are shown in Table 1. 2 In terms of metabolites, compared with the Model group, SM (4 g / kg) > SM (2 g / kg) > SM (1 g / kg), indicating that the metabolite abundance between the high-dose group of SM extract and the Model group was the highest.
[0185] 4.5.2 Identification of differential metabolites
[0186] According to the screening criteria of the OPLS-DA model, compounds with VIP>1 and P<0.05 were selected as differential metabolites, and the differential metabolites were identified by comparing the standard, the internal database of the Compound Discoverer software (mzCloud, Chemspider, etc.), the online database HMDB, Pubchem and Metlin databases, etc. The differential metabolites in the plasma and heart tissue of the mice in the SM (4g / kg) group and the Model group were deeply analyzed. The results showed that 19 metabolites were significantly different in the plasma of the two groups of mice (Table 5): compared with the Model group, 9 differential metabolites such as linoleoylcarnitine, palmitoylcarnitine, and N-acetyl-L-methionine were significantly increased in the SM (4g / kg) group, and 10 differential metabolites such as L-acetylcarnitine, propionylcarnitine, and 2-methylbutyrylcarnitine were significantly reduced in the SM (4g / kg) group. There were significant differences in the cardiac tissues of 18 metabolites between the two groups of mice (Table 6): compared with the Model group, 15 differential metabolites such as linoleoylcarnitine, eicosenoylcarnitine, and 6-phosphoglucose were significantly decreased in the SM (4 g / kg) group, while hydroxyeicosatrienoic acid, N-palmitoyl-L-methionine, and N-oleoylleucine were significantly increased in the SM (4 g / kg) group.

[0193] 4.5.3 Metabolic pathway enrichment analysis
[0194] MetaboAnalyst 5.6 software was used to enrich the differential metabolites in plasma and heart tissue of the SM (4 g / kg) group and the Model group at 3 days after PCI to explore the effect of SM extract on the metabolic pathways of MI / RI mice at 3 days after PCI. The enrichment analysis results are shown in Fig.14 and Fig.15. The results showed that the metabolic pathways in plasma related to the improvement of MI / RI by SM extract mainly included the oxidation of short-chain fatty acids, metabolism of phenylacetate, β-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, urea cycle, degradation of lysine, and metabolism of glutamate. Further summarizing the metabolic pathways with significant changes, it was found that the metabolic pathways affected by SM extract in plasma were mainly fatty acid oxidation and amino acid metabolism, glycine and serine metabolism, etc. In cardiac tissue, the main metabolic pathways related to the improvement of MI / RI by SM extract were arginine and spermine biosynthesis, glycolysis, β-oxidation of mitochondria, urea cycle, pentose phosphate pathway, amino sugar metabolism, gluconeogenesis, and glutamate metabolism. Further summarizing the metabolic pathways with significant changes, it was found that the metabolic pathways affected by SM extract in cardiac tissue were mainly mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, glycolysis, and amino acid metabolism.
[0195] 4.6 Effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza extract on lipid peroxidation in MI / RI mice
[0196] like Fig.16 As shown in the figure, compared with the Sham group, the SOD activity of the Model group was significantly reduced (P<0.01), and the MDA content was significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the Model group, all doses of SM extract treatment groups could increase SOD activity and reduce MDA content. The 4g / kg SM extract had the best effect of increasing SOD activity and reducing MDA content (P<0.01, P<0.05), indicating that SM extract can improve lipid peroxidation damage in MI / RI mice, further confirming the metabolomics results that SM extract improves energy metabolism disorders such as insufficient fatty acid metabolism in MI / RI mice.
[0197] 4.7 Effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza extract on the levels of inflammatory factors and chemokines in cardiac tissue of MI / RI mice
[0198] 4.7.1 Effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza extract on pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory factors in cardiac tissue
[0199] The results are as follows Fig.17 As shown, at 3d Post-PCI, compared with the Sham group, the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFNγ in the heart tissue of the Model group mice were significantly upregulated (P<0.05), while the levels of IL-4 (P<0.05) and IL-10 were downregulated. Compared with the Model group, 4g / kg SM extract treatment significantly reduced the expression of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFNγ in the myocardial tissue of mice (P<0.05), and promoted the expression of IL-10 (P<0.05), while Aspirin significantly inhibited the expression of IL-6 in the myocardial tissue of mice (P<0.05) and promoted the expression of IL-10 (P<0.05).
[0200] 4.7.2 Effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza extract on chemokines in cardiac tissue
[0201] The results are as follows Fig.18 As shown in the results, compared with the Sham group, the levels of GM-CSF, MCP-1 / CCL2, MCP-3 / CCL7, CX3CL1, CXCL10, and CXCL11 in the heart tissue of the Model group mice were significantly upregulated (P<0.05). Compared with the Model group, SM (4g / kg) treatment significantly reduced the expression of GM-CSF, MCP-1 / CCL2, MCP-3 / CCL7, CX3CL1, CXCL10, and CXCL11 (P<0.05), while Aspirin significantly inhibited the expression of MCP-1 / CCL2, MCP-3 / CCL7, and CX3CL10 (P<0.05).
[0202] CCR5 is one of the receptors for CCL3, CCL4, and CCL5, which can inhibit inflammation and alleviate adverse ventricular remodeling after AMI by recruiting the repair Mo subpopulation. CCL17 is a chemokine produced by M2-type Ma, which is conducive to the recruitment of repair Mo. Studies have shown that repair Mo can produce SDF-1α / CXCL12 and TGF-β to enhance the mobilization and activity of regulatory T cells, thereby inhibiting the extension of the pro-inflammatory phase. By analyzing the above chemokines related to repair Mo ( Fig.19 ), and found that compared with the Model group, the expressions of MCP-1α / CCL3, MCP-1β / CCL4, CCL5, TARC / CCL17, and SDF-1α / CXCL12 showed an upward trend after SM (4 g / kg) treatment.
[0203] By summarizing the changes in inflammatory factors and chemokines related to repair-type Mo in myocardial tissue of MI / RI mice after treatment with SM extract, it can be seen that anti-inflammatory-related inflammatory factors and chemokines only showed an upward trend, but were not significantly upregulated. This shows that at 3 days post-PCI, SM extract improves linoleylcarnitine accumulation, promotes fatty acid metabolism, and inhibits glycolysis, while mainly inhibiting the extension of the proinflammatory phase after myocardial injury, balancing the polarization of Mo subpopulations, and thus preventing and treating ventricular remodeling after ACS.

[0236] Table 7 Dosing concentration references for 5 potential biomarkers
[0237]
[0238] The CCK-8 method was used to detect cell activity to determine the concentration range used subsequently. The specific steps are as follows:
[0239] 4.1 Paving
[0240] Same as “1.2.1” in Example 1.
[0241] 4.2 Intervention
[0242] After the cells reached the desired density, serum-free and sugar-free DMEM medium containing 5 biomarkers at the dosage concentrations shown in Table 7 was given. Ten replicate wells were set up in each group. After 12 hours of hypoxic culture, the original drug-containing medium was discarded and replaced with complete DMEM medium containing 5 biomarkers at the initial dosage concentrations, and reoxygenated culture was performed for 4 hours.
[0243] The specific groups are as follows:
[0244] ① Control group (Con): Complete medium was given for synchronization of each stage, and the cells were placed in a constant temperature incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 16 h;
[0245] ② Model group (H12R4): According to the intervention method, the corresponding culture medium (without biomarkers) and culture conditions were given at each stage, with hypoxia culture for 12 hours and reoxygenation culture for 4 hours;
[0246] ③Hypoxia / reoxygenation + propionylcarnitine group (A): on the basis of hypoxia and reoxygenation, the initial concentration of propionylcarnitine was given at the same time, and the hypoxia culture was carried out for 12 hours and the reoxygenation culture was carried out for 4 hours;
[0247] ④Hypoxia / reoxygenation + butyrylcarnitine group (B): On the basis of hypoxia and reoxygenation, butyrylcarnitine at the initial concentration was given at the same time, and the hypoxia culture was carried out for 12 hours and the reoxygenation culture was carried out for 4 hours;

[0251] 4.3 CCK-8 assay to determine cell viability
[0252] After 12 hours of hypoxic culture and 4 hours of reoxygenation culture, the original drug-containing serum was discarded and complete culture medium containing 10% CCK-8 reagent was added again, 100 μL per well, and placed in a 37°C constant temperature incubator for incubation in the dark for about 1.5 hours, and the OD value was detected at 450 nm using an enzyme marker.
[0253] 4.4 Effects of five acylcarnitines on H9c2 cardiomyocytes
[0254] like Fig. 22 , 23 As shown in Figures 24 and 34, the primary mass spectra and secondary fragmentation patterns of propionylcarnitine, butyrylcarnitine, and valerylcarnitine in the samples were consistent with those of the standard, indicating that propionylcarnitine, butyrylcarnitine, and valerylcarnitine are endogenous metabolites of hypoxia / reoxygenation H9c2 cardiomyocytes, that is, the above three acylcarnitines exist in hypoxia / reoxygenation H9c2 cardiomyocytes. After comparison with the standard, hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine and linoleylcarnitine were not qualitatively detected in hypoxia / reoxygenation H9c2 cardiomyocytes, indicating that hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine and linoleylcarnitine are exogenous metabolites of hypoxia / reoxygenation H9c2 cardiomyocytes, and their effects on H9c2 cardiomyocytes are determined by external factors.
[0255] The results of cell viability assay were Fig.25 As shown in Figure A, compared with the Con group, the cardiomyocyte activity of the H12R4 group was significantly decreased (P<0.05); on the basis of hypoxia / reoxygenation intervention, 5 types of acylcarnitine (AE) were given to intervene in the cells. The results showed that compared with the H12R4 group, the cell activity of group E (linoleoylcarnitine) was significantly decreased (P<0.01), indicating that linoleoylcarnitine can aggravate the inhibitory effect of hypoxia / reoxygenation on the activity of H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
[0256] 4.5 Effects of linoleylcarnitine concentration on hypoxia / reoxygenation-induced H9c2 cardiomyocytes
[0257] The cells were plated according to the procedure of "1.2.1" of Example 1. After the cells reached the desired density, serum-free and sugar-free DMEM culture medium containing 5 μmol / L, 10 μmol / L, 20 μmol / L, 40 μmol / L and 80 μmol / L linoleoylcarnitine was given. Ten replicate wells were set up for each group. After 12 hours of anoxic culture, the original drug-containing culture medium was aspirated and discarded, and replaced with complete DMEM culture medium containing the same concentration of linoleoylcarnitine. After 4 hours of reoxygenation culture, the original drug-containing serum was aspirated and discarded, and complete culture medium containing 10% CCK-8 reagent was re-added, 100 μL per well, and the cells were placed in a 37°C constant temperature incubator and incubated in the dark for about 1.5 hours. The OD value was detected at 450 nm using a microplate reader.
[0258] The results are as follows Fig.25 As shown in Figure B, 5μmol / L, 10μmol / L, 20μmol / L, 40μmol / L and 80μmol / L linoleoylcarnitine all had a significant inhibitory effect on the cell activity of H9c2 cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia / reoxygenation (P<0.05), indicating that the accumulation of linoleoylcarnitine has a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the activity of H9c2 cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia / reoxygenation.
[0259] 4.6 Effect of linoleylcarnitine concentration on healthy H9c2 cardiomyocytes
[0260] Different concentrations of linoleylcarnitine were used to intervene in healthy H9c2 cardiomyocytes. The specific method was the same as "1.5.5". Fig.25 As shown in Figure C, there was no significant difference in the activity of cardiomyocytes intervened by 1μmol / L, 5μmol / L, 10μmol / L, 20μmol / L, 40μmol / L and 80μmol / L linoleoylcarnitine and that of the Con group (P>0.05), indicating that the accumulation of linoleoylcarnitine has no damaging effect on healthy H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
[0261] 5. Effects of linoleylcarnitine on lipid peroxidation injury in H9c2 cardiomyocytes after hypoxia / reoxygenation
[0262] The total SOD activity detection and MDA content detection methods are the same as in Example 1.
[0263] The results are as follows Fig.26 As shown. Compared with the Con group, the SOD activity of myocardial cells in the H12R4 group was significantly decreased (P<0.01); compared with the H12R4 group, linoleylcarnitine had a significant inhibitory effect on the SOD activity of H9c2 myocardial cells after hypoxia / reoxygenation (P<0.05). At the same time, the MDA content of myocardial cells in the H12R4 group was significantly increased (P<0.05); compared with the H12R4 group, linoleylcarnitine could further increase the MDA content of H9c2 myocardial cells after hypoxia / reoxygenation (P<0.05), indicating that linoleylcarnitine can aggravate the lipid peroxidation damage of H9c2 myocardial cells after hypoxia / reoxygenation.
