[0040] 1.2.3.2 Methods and results

[0041] 1.2.3.2.1 Chromatographic conditions

[0042] Using octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel as the filler and Shim-pack GIST (4.6×250mm, 5μm) as the chromatographic column; using acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid solution (17:83) as the mobile phase; the detection wavelength is 360nm.

[0043] 1.2.3.2.2 Preparation of reference substance solution

[0044] Weigh an appropriate amount of hyperoside reference substance accurately, dissolve it in 80% ethanol to prepare a solution containing 102.28μg of hyperoside per mL, and that's it.

[0045] 1.2.3.2.3 Preparation of test sample solution

[0046] Take a dose of the cut crude drugs of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction provided by the present invention, decoct it twice with water. Each time, add 6 times the mass (800mL) of water of a dose of the cut crude drugs of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, soak for 30min, decoct for 30min, and filter; for the second time, add 6 times the mass (530mL) of water of a dose of the cut crude drugs of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, decoct for 25min, filter and combine the filtrates, concentrate to less than 400mL, let it cool, and add water to 400mL. Accurately measure 5mL of the above solution, place it in a 10mL volumetric flask, dilute it to the mark with 80% ethanol, shake well, and filter through a 0.45μm filter membrane to obtain the test sample solution.

[0047] 1.2.3.2.4 Preparation of negative sample solution

[0051] 1.2.3.2.6 Linear relationship investigation

[0052] Accurately weigh an appropriate amount of hyperin reference substance (with a content of 94.7%), place it in a 100 mL volumetric flask, add 80% ethanol to dissolve and dilute to the mark to prepare reference substance solutions with hyperin concentrations of 3.20 μg / mL, 6.39 μg / mL, 12.78 μg / mL, 25.57 μg / mL, 51.14 μg / mL, and 102.28 μg / mL respectively. According to the above chromatographic conditions, accurately pipette 10 μL of the reference substance solution and inject it into the liquid chromatograph. Using the injection volume of hyperin as the abscissa and the peak area as the ordinate, plot the standard curve, and obtain the regression equation as follows:

[0053] y = 2003.42549x - 1.50249, R 2 = 0.99996

[0054] It shows that there is a good linear relationship between the injection volume of hyperin within the range of 0.032 - 1.0228 μg and the peak area.

[0066] 1.2.5 Study the transfer rate and extract yield of hyperoside by the traditional clinical decoction method

[0067] The modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction provided by the present invention is based on the traditional decoction used clinically. To enable the preparation to carry the safety and effectiveness of the traditional decoction, it is necessary to bridge with the traditional decoction method and study the extraction process. The components of traditional Chinese medicine are complex. Except for the index components, the transfer of components is affected by the extract yield, which is an important index for evaluating the extraction process. The transfer rate and extract yield of hyperoside were investigated by the traditional clinical decoction method, and the extraction process was further studied based on this.

[0068] 1.2.5.1 Study on the transfer rate and extract yield of hyperoside by the traditional decoction method

[0069] According to the clinical use characteristics of this formula and the "Administrative Specification for Traditional Chinese Medicine Decoction Rooms in Medical Institutions", the decoction method for this traditional decoction is as follows: Decoct the six kinds of cut crude drugs in proportion according to the prescription twice. For the first time, add 930 mL (7 times) of water, soak for 30 min, decoct for 1 h, and filter; for the second time, add 660 mL (5 times) of water, decoct for 45 min, and filter. Combine the filtrates of the two times, cool, measure the volume of the decoction, and conduct 9 parallel tests.

[0070] Transfer rate of hyperoside = W / M × 100%;

[0071] where W represents the mass of hyperoside in the traditional decoction, and M represents the mass of hyperoside in the cut crude drugs. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0072] Extract yield = W 干浸膏质量 / M 饮片质量 × 100%, and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0074]

[0075]

[0076] Table 3: Results of extract yield by traditional decocting method (%)

[0077]

[0078] 1.2.6 Study on water decocting process

[0079] Fix the soaking time at 30 min, the number of decocting times at 2 times, the first decocting time at 1 h, and the second decocting time at 45 min. Taking the multiple of water addition as a single factor, set 3 levels: 6 times, 7 times, and 8 times for the first time; 4 times, 5 times, and 6 times for the second time. Prepare two parallel samples and examine the results of hyperoside transfer rate (%) as shown in Table 4 and extract yield (%) as shown in Table 5.

[0080] Table 4: Results of berberine hydrochloride transfer rate with different multiples of water addition (%)

[0081]

[0082]

[0083] Table 5: Results of extract yield with different multiples of water addition (%)

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] According to the test results, decoct with water twice. For the first time, add water with a mass 6 times that of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, soak for 30 min, decoct for 1 h, and filter; for the second time, add water with a mass 4 times that of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, decoct for 45 min, and filter; combine the filtrates of the two times. The hyperoside transfer rate and extract yield of this process are closest to those of the traditional decocting method.

[0087] 1.2.8 Conclusion

[0088] Through the study on the hyperoside transfer rate (%) and extract yield (%) of the traditional decocting method, and based on this, study the corresponding water decocting process. Finally, the extraction process of this preparation is determined as: decoct with water twice. For the first time, add water with a mass 6 times that of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, soak for 30 min, decoct for 1 h, and filter; for the second time, add water with a mass 4 times that of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction, decoct for 45 min, and filter; combine the filtrates of the two times.

[0089] 1.3. Investigate the influence of temperature on concentration and drying processes

[0090] Weigh one dose of the decoction pieces of the modified formula of Bushen Huoxue Decoction provided by the present invention, and decoct it twice with water. For the first time, add water with a mass 6 times that of the modified formula of Bushen Huoxue Decoction, soak for 30 minutes, decoct for 1 hour, and filter; for the second time, add water with a mass 4 times that of the modified formula of Bushen Huoxue Decoction, decoct for 45 minutes, and filter; combine the filtrates of the two times. Parallel 9 portions and combine the filtrates of 9 portions. The sum of the volumes of the 9 filtrates / 9 is the volume of the decoction of each dose of decoction pieces. Take two portions according to the volume of the decoction of each dose of decoction pieces, and concentrate each portion to about 200 mL under normal pressure and wash it out with water to 400 mL; take another two portions according to the volume of the decoction of each dose of decoction pieces, and concentrate each portion to 200 mL under reduced pressure at 80 °C and wash it out with water to 400 mL. Calculate the transfer rate of hyperoside as shown in Table 6.

[0091] Table 6: Transfer rate of hyperoside by different concentration methods (%)

[0092]

[0093] As can be seen from Table 6, the transfer rate of hyperoside after concentration under reduced pressure and drying (80 °C) is higher than that under normal pressure concentration, and it also better meets the requirements of industrial production.

[0105] The concentration and drying process of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction is as follows: concentration under reduced pressure and then drying at 80°C.

[0106] 12-week-old female SD rats were selected and underwent ovariectomy (OVX). One week after surgery, oral administration began, including:

[0107] The sham operation group and the modeling group were gavaged with an equal amount of normal saline;

[0108] The positive drug group was given alendronate sodium (2.5 mg / kg) by gavage;

[0109] The Bushen Huoxue Decoction group was given Bushen Huoxue Decoction (20 g / kg) by gavage; the Bushen Huoxue Decoction, by weight, consisted of 15 parts of Rehmannia glutinosa, 9 parts of Cuscuta australis, 9 parts of Psoralea corylifolia, 3 parts of Lycium barbarum, 3 parts of Eucommia ulmoides, 3 parts of Cornus officinalis, 3 parts of Angelica sinensis, 3 parts of Angelica dahurica, 3 parts of Herba Angelicae Pubescentis, 3 parts of Cistanche deserticola, 3 parts of Myrrha and 1.5 parts of Carthamus tinctorius;

[0110] The modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction group was given the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction (20 g / kg) provided in Example 2 of the present invention by intragastric administration;

[0111] The drugs were administered continuously for 12 weeks. Blood was collected from each group 24 hours after the last administration, and the rats were killed to obtain bone tissue for Micro-CT examination.

[0112] See also Figure 4, Micro-CT examination results showed that compared with the sham operation group, osteoporosis occurred in the femurs of the model rats, and an osteoporosis model induced by estrogen deficiency was successfully established.

[0113] Compared with the model group, the indexes of bone volume / total volume (BV / TV), cancellous bone BMD, trabecular bone thickness (Tb.Th), and trabecular bone number (Tb.N) in the mice of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction group were significantly up-regulated, while the trabecular bone separation degree (Tb.Sp) was significantly decreased, and the values were close to those of the positive drug group.

[0114] These results all suggested that the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction provided by the present invention could improve the bone mass reduction in estrogen deficiency model rats (#p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 compared with the sham operation group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 compared with the model group).

[0115] Please refer to Figure 5 , for the detection of ALP activity in the femur tissues of ovariectomized rats treated with Bushen Huoxue Decoction and the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction respectively, the ALP activity in the femur tissues was higher after the intervention of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction.

[0116] The ALP activity detection results showed that the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction increased the ALP activity in the femur tissues (#p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 compared with the sham operation group. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 compared with the model group).

[0117] Please refer to Figure 6 , for the detection of the expression of osteoblast-specific proteins in the femur tissues of ovariectomized rats treated with Bushen Huoxue Decoction and the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction respectively, the expression of osteoblast-specific proteins in the femur tissues was higher after the intervention of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction.

[0118] Western Blot was used to detect the protein expression level in the femur tissues to evaluate the level of osteoblast-specific proteins. Compared with the sham operation group, the protein expression levels of Runx2 and ALP in the femur tissues of the model group were significantly decreased (P < 0.05); compared with the model group, the protein expression levels of Runx2 and ALP in the femur tissues of the Bushen Huoxue Decoction group and the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction group were significantly increased (P < 0.05) (#p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 compared with the sham operation group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 compared with the model group).

[0119] Please refer to Figure 7 , for the effects of the drug-containing sera of Bushen Huoxue Decoction and the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction on the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3 cells respectively, the drug-containing serum of the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction had a better effect.

[0120] MC3T3 cells were cultured with the serum containing Bushen Huoxue Decoction and the serum containing the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction respectively. After 14 days, the results of alizarin red staining showed that the modified Bushen Huoxue Decoction promoted the differentiation of MC3T3 cells into osteoblasts more effectively than the Bushen Huoxue Decoction.
