Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine, and particularly relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and / or treating ectopic calcification and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ectopic calcification is a disease in which calcium deposits occur in soft tissues outside physiological calcified tissues (usually referring to tissues such as teeth, bones, growth plates, articular cartilage, etc.). The process of physiological aging and some common diseases can promote its occurrence, thereby affecting health and even causing death. Such ectopic calcifications include senile cerebral calcification, calcification of bone joints and ligaments, gallstones, kidney stones, conjunctival calculi, calcification of periarthritis of shoulder, bladder calcification, prostatic calcification, cardiovascular calcification, placental calcification, etc.
[0003] In addition, ectopic calcification is also common in some genetic diseases, including idiopathic basal ganglia calcification, tumoral calcinosis, pseudoxanthoma elasticum, generalized arterial calcification of infancy, pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis, Keutel syndrome, arterial calcification due to CD73, etc.
[0004] The pathogenic mechanisms of these ectopic calcification diseases are mainly caused by abnormal metabolic calcification, dystrophic calcification, heterotopic ossification, etc. The specific underlying mechanisms have not been fully studied yet. And for different ectopic calcifications, there is currently no unified specific medicine clinically. Among the existing treatment methods for individual ectopic calcification diseases, the expected effects have not been achieved, and there are obvious drug toxic and side effects, or serious recurrence phenomena, or accompanied by great surgical pain, etc.
[0005] Intracranial calcification is a type of neurological disease with calcification in the brain as the main pathological feature. In 1850, Delacour first reported intracranial calcification. Subsequently, Bamberger et al. also reported intracranial calcification in a female patient with mental retardation and epileptic seizures, which pathologically confirmed the existence of intracranial calcification. In 1935, Fritzschie et al. described intracranial calcification radiologically. Intracranial calcification is very common clinically. According to statistics, the incidence rate of intracranial calcification is about 1%-20%, and the incidence rate increases with age.
[0006] Idiopathic basal ganglia calcification (IBGC) is an intracranial calcification caused by genetic factors, mainly characterized by symmetrical calcification in the basal ganglia and other parts of the brain, commonly known as Fahr disease. Most patients develop the disease between the ages of 30 and 60. Due to the calcification, symptoms such as Parkinson-like symptoms, ataxia, dystonia, dementia, memory decline, mental confusion, emotional disorders, epilepsy, and migraine often occur.
[0007] To date, in the research progress of the treatment of intracranial calcification, no effective treatment method has been found at home and abroad. In some individual literature reports, it is mentioned that etidronate disodium may have a relieving effect on the secondary symptoms of patients with intracranial calcification, but no reduction in calcium deposition in the patients' intracranial was found from CT images.
[0008] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field to develop a drug composition for effectively treating ectopic calcification and intracranial calcification diseases and to study its preparation method. Summary of the Invention

[0079] The term
[0080] Ectopic calcification disease
[0081] Ectopic calcification is a disease in which calcium deposits appear in soft tissues outside physiological calcified tissues (usually referring to tissues such as teeth, bones, growth plates, articular cartilage, etc.). The process of physiological aging and some common diseases can promote its occurrence, which in turn affects health and even causes death. Such ectopic calcifications include intracranial calcification, calcification of bone joint ligaments, gallstones, kidney stones, eye stones, calcification of periarthritis of shoulder, bladder calcification, prostate calcification, cardiovascular calcification, placental calcification, etc.
[0082] Intracranial calcification disease
[0083] Intracranial calcification is a type of neurological disease with calcium deposition in the brain as the main pathological feature, which can be divided into two types: physiological calcification and pathological calcification. If the calcification is only limited to the globus pallidus, does not involve other parts of the brain, and the patient does not show neurological symptoms after the age of 40 and has no calcium metabolism disorder diseases, it can be regarded as intracranial physiological calcification; while pathological calcification can be caused by many factors, such as genetic factors, TORCH syndrome, viral infection, trauma, toxins, physiological injury, aging, hypoparathyroidism, etc. In addition, many congenital syndromes can also be accompanied by brain calcification, such as Aicardi-Goutières syndrome, Cockayne syndrome, type I Kenny-Caffey syndrome, Krabbe disease, etc.
[0084] Kidney stone
[0085] Kidney stones are a type of ectopic calcification (mainly calcium oxalate or calcium phosphate) that abnormally accumulates in the kidneys and is a common cause of abdominal and groin pain and hematuria. One in every 11 people will experience this condition at some point in their lives, and the number of male patients is twice that of female patients. The occurrence of kidney stones is related to a decrease in urine volume or an increase in the excretion of stone components (such as calcium, phosphorus, oxalic acid, uric acid, cystine, xanthine, and phosphate). Low citrate content or high acidity in urine may also cause kidney stones. Kidney stones present as unbearable pain, and most patients who come to the emergency department are in great pain. Single kidney stones do not cause renal failure, but recurrent kidney stones can damage the renal tubular epithelial cells, leading to the loss of renal parenchymal function. Currently, the main methods for treating kidney stones include drinking a large amount of water, taking lithotriptic drugs, appropriate exercise, and surgical operations. A traditional Chinese medicine composition discovered in the present invention can effectively remove kidney stones in the kidneys and relieve pain after being taken by patients with kidney stones, with remarkable curative effects.
[0086] Ocular calculi
[0087] Ocular calculi are a type of multiple hard masses that occur on the palpebral conjunctiva and are related to the accumulation of epithelial cells and the compression of mucus to produce degenerated products. When the ocular calculi protrude, it will cause a foreign body sensation in the patient's eyes and even corneal abrasion and erosion, which are more common in middle-aged and elderly people and patients with other ophthalmic diseases. A traditional Chinese medicine composition discovered in the present invention can expel the calculi growing in the eyelids after being taken by patients with ocular calculi, with remarkable curative effects.
[0088] Calcification of periarthritis of shoulder
[0089] Calcification of periarthritis of shoulder refers to the inflammation of the shoulder soft tissues caused by periarthritis of shoulder. Long-term inflammatory stimulation further induces ectopic calcification such as tendon calcification and osteoproliferation of the shoulder joint, presenting symptoms such as shoulder joint pain and limited movement. A traditional Chinese medicine composition discovered in the present invention can relieve the pain of the shoulder joint and restore movement after being taken by patients with calcification of periarthritis of shoulder.
[0090] Bladder calcification
[0091] Bladder calcification refers to the deposition of calcium in the bladder mucosa or its muscular layer. If not treated in time, it will promote the occurrence and development of diseases such as kidney stones and urinary tract stones.
[0092] Prostatic calcification
[0093] Prostatic calcification refers to the deposition of calcium in the prostatic ducts and prostatic acini, and then the formation of true stones, which is one of the common prostatic lesions in men.
[0094] Imperata cylindrica
[0095] As used herein, the term "Imperata cylindrica" refers to the Chinese medicinal herb Imperata cylindrica or its active extract. Imperata cylindrica (L.) Beauv. is the rhizome of the plant Imperata cylindrica Beauv. of the Gramineae family. Aliases: Imperata cylindrica root, orchid root, and root of Imperata cylindrica. Preferably, it is the dried root of Imperata cylindrica (L.) Beauv. var. major (Nees) C.E. Hubb. The Chinese medicinal herb Imperata cylindrica has functions such as clearing heat and promoting fluid production. In the present invention, Imperata cylindrica is also referred to as the first active ingredient A.
[0096] As used herein, the term "Coix lacryma-jobi" refers to the Chinese medicinal herb Coix lacryma-jobi or its active extract. Coix lacryma-jobi L. is the root, seed kernel, or a combination thereof of the plant Coix lacryma-jobi L. of the Gramineae family. Semen Coicis is the seed kernel of Coix lacryma-jobi. Aliases: Semen Coicis, Job's tears, coix seed, ditch seed, coix seed, etc. The functions of Coix lacryma-jobi root are basically the same as those of Semen Coicis. The Chinese medicinal herb Coix lacryma-jobi has functions such as strengthening the spleen and promoting diuresis, removing dampness obstruction, relieving diarrhea, and clearing heat. In the present invention, Coix lacryma-jobi is also referred to as the second active ingredient B.
[0097] As used herein, the term "Glochidion puberum" refers to the Chinese medicinal herb Glochidion puberum or its active extract. Glochidion puberum (L.) Hutch. is the root, leaf, fruit, or a combination thereof of the plant Glochidion of the Euphorbiaceae family. Representative plants of the genus Glochidion include (but are not limited to): Glochidion puberum (L.) Hutch., Glochidion wilsonii Hutch., etc. Aliases of Glochidion puberum include: Li Jizi, wild pumpkin, persimmon pepper, abacus beads, etc. The Chinese medicinal herb Glochidion puberum has functions such as clearing heat and promoting diuresis, expelling wind and activating collaterals. In the present invention, Glochidion puberum is also referred to as the third active ingredient C.

[0139] Embodiment Materials and Preparation
[0140] Before the implementation of the examples, we constructed a model mouse for intracranial calcification disease (slc20a2-p.S602W ki mouse). The base CC at positions 1805-1806 of the cDNA of mouse slc20a2 gene [Ensembl Gene ID: (ENSMUSG00000037656)] (Transcript: slc20a2-201 (ENSMUST00000067786)) was mutated to GG, so that the codon TCC at position 602 was mutated to TGG, and the encoded serine was changed to tryptophan (p.S602W). Wild-type (WT), heterozygous (slc20a2 + / S602W ) and homozygous (slc20a2 S602W / S602W ) mice were obtained respectively. Through phenotypic analysis, we determined that the homozygous mice had extremely similar phenotypes to human intracranial calcification disease. Calcification phenotypes and other symptoms that progressively developed with age appeared in the brains of homozygous mice, such as abnormal motor balance ability, anxiety behavior, learning and memory, and depressive behavior. Therefore, we used the above-mentioned homozygous mice as intracranial calcification model mice (see Chinese Patent Application No.: 201810552675.5).
[0141] Example 1 Effects of the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention on intracranial calcification in mice
[0142] 1.1 Establishment of different levels of intracranial calcification in intracranial calcification model mice
[0143] It is known that the degree of intracranial calcification in intracranial calcification model mice worsens with age. For the convenience of statistics, the degree of cerebral calcification in mice was graded. First, the area of the sagittal plane along the midline of the brain of 90-day-old mice was taken as a unit; then, the calcified area in the serial sections of the sagittal plane of the brains of the mice to be evaluated was counted, and the ratio of the calcified area to the unit area was used as the evaluation criterion for the calcification level of the mice:
[0144] Calcification level index = calcified area ÷ unit area
[0145] At the same time, we selected the maximum value among the calcification levels of the serial sections of the brain of the same mouse as the total calcification level of this mouse. We divided the calcification level into six levels from 0 to 5, and the corresponding relationship between the calcification level index is as follows:
[0146] Level 0 = 0, 0 < Level 1 ≤ 0.00005, 0.00005 < Level 2 ≤ 0.00015, 0.00015 < Level 3
[0147] ≤ 0.0003, 0.0003 < Level 4 ≤ 0.0005, Level 5 > 0.0005( Figure 1 , a-h). The specific method is as follows:
[0148] (1) Preparation of paraffin sections
[0149] Tissue collection: The mice were anesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate, fixed on the dissection board, the chest cavity was opened, the perfusion needle was inserted into the left ventricle, and a small incision was made in the right auricle. First, perfusion was performed with normal saline, and after the blood completely flowed out, it was replaced with 4% paraformaldehyde for perfusion (15 minutes). Then, the target tissue (brain) was removed and placed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution for overnight fixation.
[0150] Dehydration: The tissues were placed in 75% alcohol for 4 hours, 85% alcohol for 2 hours, 90% alcohol for 2 hours, 95% alcohol for 1 hour, absolute ethanol I for 30 minutes, absolute ethanol II for 30 minutes, alcohol-benzene for 5 - 10 minutes, xylene I for 5 - 10 minutes, xylene II for 5 - 10 minutes, wax I for 1 hour, wax II for 1 hour, and wax III for 1 hour.
[0151] Embedding: The tissues impregnated with wax were embedded in an embedding machine. First, the melted wax was put into the embedding frame. Before the wax solidified, the tissues were taken out of the dehydration box, placed in the embedding frame according to the requirements of the embedding surface, and the corresponding labels were attached. After cooling, when the wax solidified, the wax blocks were taken out of the embedding frame and trimmed.
[0152] Sectioning: The trimmed wax blocks were sectioned on a paraffin microtome with a thickness of 5 μm. The sections were floated on warm water at 40°C on a spreading table to flatten the tissues, picked up with glass slides, and baked in an oven at 60°C.
[0153] (2) Von kossa staining
[0154] The dewaxed-to-water sections were incubated in 5% sodium thiosulfate solution for 30 minutes, rinsed with distilled water, stained with 1% silver nitrate solution under ultraviolet light for 30 minutes, rinsed with distilled water to remove the black substances floating on the surface of the sections, further counterstained with 5% sodium thiosulfate for 2 minutes, stained with 1% neutral red for 10 minutes, and finally dehydrated, cleared, and sealed with neutral balsam. Both 5% sodium thiosulfate and 1% silver nitrate solutions were prepared freshly before use.
[0155] (3) HE staining
[0156] HE staining (hematoxylin-eosin staining): After preparing tissue paraffin sections, dewax the paraffin sections to water: sequentially place the sections in xylene I for 20 minutes, xylene II for 20 minutes, absolute ethanol I for 10 minutes, absolute ethanol II for 10 minutes, 95% alcohol for 5 minutes, 90% alcohol for 5 minutes, 80% alcohol for 5 minutes, 70% alcohol for 5 minutes, and distilled water wash for 2 minutes. Stain cell nuclei with hematoxylin: Immerse the sections in hematoxylin for 3 - 8 minutes, rinse with tap water, differentiate with 1% hydrochloric acid alcohol for 8 - 10 seconds, rinse with tap water, blue with 0.6% ammonia water, and rinse with running water. Stain cytoplasm with eosin: Immerse the sections in eosin staining solution for 1 - 3 minutes. Dehydrate and mount the slides: sequentially place the sections in 95% alcohol I for 5 minutes - 95% alcohol II for 5 minutes - absolute ethanol I for 5 minutes - absolute ethanol II for 5 minutes - xylene I for 5 minutes - xylene II for 5 minutes for dehydration and clearing. After taking out the sections from xylene and slightly air-drying them, mount the slides with neutral gum.
[0157] (4) Statistical analysis of calcification area
[0158] Make continuous paraffin sections (5 μm thick) of the embedded mouse brains, and then perform Von kossa staining or HE staining. Select the section with the most severe calcification by microscopic observation, take pictures with an Olympus BX53 microscope, and quantitatively analyze the calcification area in the taken pictures using Image-ProPlus 6.0 Software (the ratio of the statistical unit to the area in the software is 1 pixel = 0.47 square micrometers).
[0159] 1.2 Animal experiments on the traditional Chinese medicine composition with optimized weight ratio

[0161] The drug for preventing and treating ectopic calcification diseases used in this example is: the raw medicinal materials Imperata cylindrica, Coix lacryma-jobi, and Glochidion puberum are the dried roots of the corresponding medicinal materials. Specifically, Glochidion puberum is Glochidion puberum. According to the compatibility ratio of Imperata cylindrica: Coix lacryma-jobi: Glochidion puberum = 16:55:27, take 4 grams of Imperata cylindrica, 13.75 grams of Coix lacryma-jobi, and 6.75 grams of Glochidion puberum. Wash, dry, and pulverize the raw medicinal materials, place them in a container, add water to cover the medicinal materials, decoct twice. Decoct for 60 minutes for the first time and 30 minutes for the second time. Filter the decoction liquid, combine and mix the decoction liquid obtained from each decoction to obtain a combined decoction liquid. Before the experiment, dilute this combined decoction liquid with sterile water to 2900 ml for experimental administration to the drug administration group in the following mouse experiments.
[0162] Separate groups of WT+H2O, Ki+H2O, and Ki+LJY-001 were designed. Six male and six female wild-type mice were selected for the WT+H2O group, and sterile water was used as the drinking water as a control. Six male and six female mice with intracranial calcification models were selected for the Ki+H2O group, and sterile water was used as the drinking water as a control. Six male and six female mice with intracranial calcification models were selected for the Ki+LJY-001 group, and the medicinal liquid decocted from the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention was administered. Each mouse was given 7 milliliters of the medicinal liquid per day. The experiment started at the 4th week after the mice were born (the weaning time of the mice) and lasted for 27 weeks. When the mice in each group reached 30 weeks of age, six male and six female mice were respectively selected. By making continuous paraffin sections of the mouse brains, the intracranial calcification conditions of the mice were observed and counted.
[0163] Results
[0164] Compared with the Ki+H2O group, the degree of intracranial calcification in the intracranial calcification model mice in the Ki+LJY-001 group was significantly reduced ( Figure 2 , a-f), indicating that the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention effectively inhibits the formation and development of intracranial calcification in intracranial calcification model mice.
[0165] 1.3 Animal toxicity experiment of the drug of the present invention

[0167] The tissue sections of the hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, kidneys, and femurs of the mice in the above-mentioned WT+H2O, Ki+H2O, and Ki+LJY-001 groups were stained with HE for observation.
[0168] Results
[0169] It was found that there were no obvious differences in the hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, kidneys, femurs, etc. of the mice in the three groups ( Figure 3 , a-r), indicating that there are no obvious side effects when the intracranial calcification model mice take the traditional Chinese medicine composition with this optimized dosage ratio for a long time.

[0285] Discussion
[0286] Before 2012, its pathogenic mechanism was unknown. We started from the family tree and cloned the first pathogenic gene SLC20A2 of IBGC through genetic analysis for the first time. Functional analysis found that this gene mutation affects the cell's transport of inorganic phosphorus, resulting in the accumulation of inorganic phosphorus (Pi) in the extracellular matrix and causing the disease. Currently, studies have found that about 50% of IBGC patients are caused by mutations in the SLC20A2 gene. We constructed mice with the slc20a2 gene mutation (p.S602W), and after identification, these mice showed obvious intracranial calcification phenotypes; therefore, the slc20a2 gene mutation (p.S602W) mice are good intracranial calcification model mice and can be used for the research and development of drugs for treating intracranial calcification. The drug provided by the present invention has an obvious inhibitory effect on the occurrence and development of intracranial calcification in intracranial calcification model mice, which is of great significance for further developing drugs for treating intracranial calcification diseases.
[0287] In the embodiment of the present invention, by administering the drug compositions of the present invention with different compatibilities to the model mice, the effects of treating intracranial calcification diseases are evaluated. By adjusting the compatibility of the present invention, it is found that when the drug composition of the present invention contains the following components and compatibilities, it can effectively treat intracranial calcification diseases:
[0288] When the active ingredients are A, B, and C, the compatibility ratio of A, B, and C is A:B:C = (1 - 84):(1 - 278):(1 - 140), preferably A:B:C = (1 - 15):(1 - 40):(1 - 20).
[0289] When the active ingredients are A and B, their compatibility ratio is: A:B = (1 - 84):(1 - 278), preferably: A:B = 83:278.
[0290] When the active ingredients are A and C, their compatibility ratio is: A:C = (1 - 84):(1 - 140), preferably: A:C = 83:139.
[0291] When the active ingredients are B and C, their compatibility ratio is: B:C = (1 - 278):(1 - 140), preferably: B:C = 278:139.
