Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and specifically relates to an American ginseng and turmeric oral tablet candy (tablet candy) with auxiliary protection function for chemical liver damage and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] 1. The protective function of American ginseng against chemical liver damage is mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1.1. Antioxidant effect The saponin components in American ginseng have significant antioxidant effects. These antioxidants can remove free radicals in the body and reduce oxidative stress damage to the liver, thereby protecting the liver from damage by chemical substances. By improving the liver's antioxidant capacity, American ginseng helps maintain the normal physiological functions of the liver.
[0003] 1.2. Inhibition of lipid peroxidation The active ingredients in American ginseng can inhibit the lipid peroxidation process and reduce the production of peroxidation products in the liver. This effect helps to reduce lipid peroxidation damage to the liver, protect the integrity of the liver cell membrane, and thus maintain the normal structure and function of the liver.
[0004] 1.3. Improve inflammatory response Chemical liver damage is often accompanied by the occurrence of inflammatory response. Certain components in American ginseng can inhibit the release of inflammatory factors and reduce the inflammatory response of the liver, thereby helping to alleviate liver inflammation and damage caused by chemical liver damage.
[0005] 1.4. Promote liver detoxification metabolism American ginseng has the function of promoting liver detoxification metabolism. By enhancing the liver's detoxification ability, American ginseng helps accelerate the metabolism and excretion of toxic substances in the body, thereby reducing the damage of chemical substances to the liver. This effect is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of chemical liver damage.
[0006] 1.5. Experimental research Experimental studies have shown that total saponins of American ginseng can effectively antagonize acute liver damage in mice caused by certain chemicals (such as acetaminophen) by restoring the activity of the body's antioxidant enzymes, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, improving inflammatory responses, and resisting cell apoptosis and necrosis. These experimental results further confirm the protective effect of American ginseng against chemical liver damage.
[0007] 2. Turmeric has a significant protective function against chemical liver damage, which is mainly due to its rich active ingredient curcumin.
[0008] 2.1. Main effects of curcumin 2.1.1. Antioxidant effect: As a powerful natural antioxidant, curcumin can increase the activity and content of antioxidant enzymes (such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase) in the liver.
[0009] By scavenging free radicals and reducing oxidative stress, curcumin can protect liver cells from oxidative damage, thereby maintaining normal liver function.
[0010] 2.1.2. Anti-inflammatory effect: Liver disease is often accompanied by inflammatory responses, and curcumin can intervene and inhibit the key inflammatory signaling pathways in this process. By reducing the inflammatory state of the liver, curcumin helps reduce the risk of liver damage.
[0011] 2.1.3. Anti-fibrosis effect: Liver fibrosis is a response of the liver to chronic damage. Long-term existence will gradually lead to loss of liver function. Curcumin can block this process through various mechanisms, including inhibiting the activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells, promoting their apoptosis, reducing the level of oxidative stress in liver tissue, and reducing collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix deposition.
[0012] 2.2. Experimental and clinical studies on the protection of turmeric against chemical liver damage 2.2.1. Experimental research: Using experimental methods such as liver cancer cell transplantation models and chemical-induced acute or chronic liver injury models, it was found that curcumin can significantly reduce serum transaminase levels, improve liver function, and promote the repair and regeneration of liver cells; pathological examination showed that curcumin can reduce liver tissue inflammation and fibrosis and improve liver structure.
[0013] 2.2.2. Clinical research: Some clinical trials have also verified the protective effects of turmeric and its extracts (such as turmeric capsules) against chemical liver damage. These studies usually adopt a randomized controlled trial design to evaluate the therapeutic effect of turmeric by comparing serum transaminase levels, liver function indicators, and symptom improvement between the turmeric treatment group and the control group.
[0014] 3. Turmeric swallowing and edible gastrointestinal absorption defects Curcumin in turmeric has poor water solubility and low bioavailability in vivo. After oral administration, most of it is rapidly metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract to generate reduced products and then excreted from the body, which to a certain extent limits the clinical application of curcumin. References "Effects of chitosan modification on the stability and antioxidant activity of liposome-encapsulated curcumin" Wang Xiaoyong, Yan Jialei, Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Colloid and Interface Chemistry of the Chinese Chemical Society, Section 5.
[0015] Chemical structure, release rate, and low solubility in gastrointestinal fluid are key factors limiting the bioaccessibility of curcumin. Since the early 1980s, scholars have conducted extensive research on the bioavailability of curcumin in rat models. According to research reports, after oral administration of 400 mg of curcumin to rats, only trace amounts (less than 5 μg / mL) of curcumin remained in the portal vein blood within 15 min to 24 h. In addition, it was found that after oral administration of 3.6 g of curcumin, the maximum content of curcumin in plasma was 11.1 nmol / L 1 h after administration. No curcumin was found in the plasma of patients who received lower doses of curcumin.

Summary of the invention
[0016] In order to overcome the defect of gastrointestinal absorption disorder when turmeric is swallowed and eaten, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a ginseng and turmeric oral compressed tablet candy (lozenge) with auxiliary protection function against chemical liver damage. The volatile oil of ginseng is mixed with turmeric by a specific process, which increases the fat solubility and the absorption and utilization of curcumin in turmeric, and is quickly absorbed into the blood through the oral mucosal blood vessels and sublingual capillaries, thereby avoiding the first-pass effect of the gastrointestinal tract, thereby exerting the health care effect of the product.

Magnesium stearate Should comply with the requirements of the National Food Safety Standard Food Additive Magnesium Stearate (GB 1886.91) The preparation method of the American ginseng and turmeric oral tablet candy (tablet) comprises the following steps: 1. American ginseng extract 1.1. Cleaning, drying and crushing Take the formulated amount of American ginseng and wash it three times with running drinking water to remove impurities. Dry the washed American ginseng in a thermal circulation oven at 60°C to 65°C. After natural cooling, crush the American ginseng into 10-mesh coarse powder for later use.
[0019] 1.2. Volatile oil extraction Take the crude powder of American ginseng, put it into a multi-functional extraction tank, and steam distill it for about 2-2.5 hours. Collect the distillate and separate the upper volatile oil for later use.
[0020] 1.3. Percolation extraction and concentration The distilled ginseng powder was stirred and moistened with 2 times the weight of 70wt% edible ethanol solution, and then sealed for 24 hours. Then, 13 times the weight of 70wt% edible ethanol solution was added to start percolation, and the percolation liquid flow rate was controlled at 230-270ml / min.
[0021] The percolate is concentrated into a thick paste with a relative density of 1.25-1.30 (measured at 60°C-65°C) using a single-effect vacuum decompression concentrator and then stored in a freezer (0-4°C) for later use, wherein the steam pressure is 0.06-0.1Mpa and the vacuum pressure is -0.04--0.08Mpa.
[0022] 2. Granulation 2.1. Pretreatment of turmeric powder and American ginseng volatile oil Slowly add American ginseng volatile oil to the turmeric powder while stirring, stir for 5 to 10 minutes, scrape the powder through a 20-mesh sieve of a swing granulator, and set aside.

[0028] 2.7. Packaging The qualified tablets are packaged with PVC sheets / aluminum foil and medicinal composite films, with 12 tablets per plate.
[0029] Advantages of the Invention ① The oral mucosal epithelium is composed of multiple layers of flat epithelial cells. Only the tongue surface and lips are keratinized. There are many blood vessels distributed in the oral mucosa, forming a large vascular network in the inner layer of the mucosa, which provides a rich vascular pathway for the absorption of curcumin in turmeric. ② The abundant capillaries under the tongue allow curcumin in turmeric to enter the blood circulation faster.
[0030] ③ The oral mucosal epithelial cell membrane is composed of liposomes, so fat-soluble active substances such as curcumin can easily penetrate.
[0031] ④ Oral absorption avoids the first-pass effect of the gastrointestinal tract, and prevents most of the drug from being rapidly metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract to produce reduced products and then excreted from the body after oral administration, thereby improving bioavailability by holding the drug in the mouth.
[0032] ⑤ Synergistic effect of ginseng and turmeric: 1. Enhance Antioxidant Capacity Both American ginseng and turmeric have antioxidant effects. Using them together can further enhance the antioxidant capacity, better eliminate free radicals, and reduce the damage of oxidative stress to the liver.
[0033] 2. Synergistic anti-inflammatory effect Both have anti-inflammatory effects, and their combined use can more effectively inhibit the liver's inflammatory response and reduce the liver's inflammatory state.
[0034] 3. Promote liver cell regeneration and repair: American ginseng can promote the regeneration of liver cells, while turmeric can protect liver cells from damage. The combination of the two can better promote the repair and regeneration of liver tissue. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0113] 1.4.1. Specific experimental methods The experimental animals were randomly divided into solvent and CCl 4The animals in the control group and the low, medium and high dose groups were given the test substance by oral gavage every day. The solvent control group and CCl 4 The control group was given distilled water (20 ml / kg·BW by intragastric administration). The animals were weighed twice a week to adjust the dose of the test substance and were allowed to eat and drink freely for 30 days.
[0114] One day before the end of the experiment, the animals in each group were fasted for 16 h overnight and CCl 4 The animals in the group and each dose group were intragastrically administered with CCl at a rate of 0.01 mL / g·BW each time. 4 The solvent control group was given soybean oil, and the test groups were treated with CCl 4 After 4 hours of exposure, the test substance was continued to be administered. CCl 4 After 24 hours, the eyeballs were removed and blood was collected to separate the serum for determination of ALT and AST. At the same time, the animals were killed and the livers were removed for histopathological examination.
[0115] 1.5. Scoring Criteria Among all types of lesions, 0 points were assigned if the liver cells were roughly normal, 1 point was assigned if the diseased cells occupied 1 / 4 of the entire visual field, 2 points were assigned if they occupied 1 / 2 of the entire visual field, 3 points were assigned if they occupied 3 / 4 of the entire visual field, and 4 points were assigned if they occupied the entire visual field. The total score was the sum of the scores for watery degeneration, ballooning degeneration, fatty degeneration, and cytoplasmic condensation, plus twice the score for liver cell necrosis.

[0119] 1.7.2. Liver histopathological examination 1.7.2.1. Visual observation Solvent control group: The liver surface was smooth, bright red in color, and soft in texture.
[0120] CCl 4 Control group: The liver surface was granular, the color became lighter to earthy yellow, and the texture was slightly hard.
[0121] Each dose group: The liver surface had uniform fine particles, with a slightly yellow, dark brown or khaki color, and was soft or slightly hard.
[0122] 1.7.2.2. Microscopic examination The microscopic examination results of each group are as follows Figure 1-5 As shown: Solvent control group: The hepatic sinusoids were very clear and obvious, and the hepatic cords were neatly arranged and extended from the central vein. The hepatocytes had normal morphology and structure, with very clear cell boundaries and elasticity. The cytoplasm was thick, the cytoplasm was uniform, there were no vacuoles, and there was no obvious cell necrosis and tissue deformation.
[0123] CCl 4 Control group: The liver cells adhered together, the cells were in disorder, some of the cell nuclei dissolved, the hepatic cords and hepatic sinusoids disappeared, the cells were swollen and necrotic, the cytoplasm was sparse, and the pathological damage was very serious.
[0124] Each dosage group: ① From the low-dose group, it can be seen that the liver cells are still very chaotic, with sparse and swollen cytoplasm, compact cells, and large-area necrosis. No obvious hepatic cords were seen, but hepatic sinusoids gradually appeared from the central vein, and the cytopathic changes were alleviated.
[0125] ② In the medium-dose sections, the hepatic sinusoids are obvious, the hepatic cords gradually become clear, and they branch out from the central vein. The cells tend to be normal, and there are no obvious vacuoles in the cells. However, there are still chaotic and necrotic cells.
[0126] ③ From the high-dose group, it can be seen that the hepatic sinusoids are very obvious, the hepatic cords are fresh, the cells are basically normal, the cytoplasm is thick, and there are no lesions.
[0127] ④ Compared with the low-dose group, the recovery of liver cells in the high-dose group was particularly obvious. The liver cells returned to normal from the swollen and vacuolated state, the cells became regular, and clear boundaries appeared between the cells.
[0128] CCl 4 The liver cell necrosis and total score in the control group were higher than those in the solvent control group (F values were 17.5 and 9.0, respectively, P < 0.05). The liver cell necrosis and total score in the medium and high dose groups were higher than those in the CCl 4 The control group was lower (F values were 9.9 and 14.7, P < 0.05). The results are shown in Table 4.
