Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine extraction and preparation and its applications, and particularly relates to a method for the overall extraction of active ingredients from the fruit residue of seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt (golden Rosa roxburghii tratt) and its applications. Background Art
[0002] The seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt is the fruit of Rosa sterilis S.D.Shi, a plant of the genus Rosa in the family Rosaceae, also known as golden Rosa roxburghii tratt. It is a unique species in Guizhou, China, and is distributed in places such as Anshun, Guizhou. It mostly grows at an altitude of 1500 meters, can grow in areas such as rocky desertification areas, has relatively strong adaptability, is relatively light-loving, and the root growth is facilitated when the ground temperature is relatively high. In recent years, the area of artificial cultivation has been expanding year by year. However, the current research on the development and utilization of seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt is not yet mature.
[0003] With the continuous development of the seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt industry, its quality problems have gradually attracted attention. However, the quality evaluation system for this specific variety is not yet perfect. At present, the relevant research mainly focuses on water-soluble components such as vitamin C, polysaccharides, polyphenols, and flavonoids, and the research on the fat-soluble components in seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt is relatively scarce. Moreover, there is no systematic quality evaluation research based on multiple water-soluble and fat-soluble components and their source parts.
[0004] In industrial production, the utilization of seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt is mainly to obtain seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt juice through physical pressing for use in the production of food and health products. However, the seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt residue, which accounts for 60% - 70% of the dry fruit weight obtained during pressing, may retain a large number of active ingredients in seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt but has not been well utilized, resulting in waste of resources and environmental pollution. It is reported that the extraction of active ingredients from seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt residue mainly uses methods such as hot water extraction, ultrasonic-assisted extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction, and mostly focuses on the extraction of a single component such as total polyphenols or total flavonoids. There is still a lack of in-depth and systematic research on the comprehensive utilization of the overall extract and the synergistic effect between multiple components. At present, the extraction of polyphenol and flavonoid components from the fruit residue often uses methanol or ethanol as solvents, but the use of organic solvents may bring residue problems and affect safety; according to the literature and preliminary experiments, the seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt residue contains various unstable active ingredients such as total flavonoids, total polyphenols, and total proanthocyanidins, which are easily degraded under the influence of factors such as air, light, pH, and metal ions. Traditional high-temperature extraction methods are prone to cause changes in components and a decrease in content.
[0005] Alcoholic Liver Injury (ALI) is a relatively common liver disease, and its main inducing factor is frequent excessive drinking. If not controlled, alcoholic liver disease may gradually progress to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even further develop into liver cancer. The pathogenesis of alcoholic liver injury is complex, involving multiple aspects such as the body's alcohol metabolism, hepatic steatosis, oxidative stress, inflammatory response, immune abnormalities, and gut microbiota dysbiosis. Therefore, it is of innovative pharmacological value to carry out systematic research on the potential protective effect of seedless Rosa roxburghii tratt on liver injury. Summary of the Invention

In addition, the mobile phases (methanol - isopropanol - methanol, methyl tert-butyl ether - methanol) were investigated, and the result showed that the methyl tert-butyl ether - methanol system was better. The separation effect of the chromatographic peaks in the experimental samples was relatively ideal, and the peak shapes were good.

Using the mass concentration of each component as the abscissa (X) and the peak area as the ordinate (Y), draw a standard curve, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0074] Example 2: Extraction, determination and analysis of active components in Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi
[0075] 1. Accurately weigh 500.0 g of fresh Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi fruits, press, centrifuge and filter them with a juicer to obtain Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi fruit juice and the remaining fruit residues. The Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi fruit juice and residues are freeze-dried under vacuum to obtain 24.05 g of freeze-dried Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi juice powder and 52.20 g of freeze-dried Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi residue powder. The relevant calculation formulas are as follows:
[0076] Taking total polyphenols as an example for the calculation formula, other components (including fat-soluble components) are calculated according to this:
[0077] Mass of total polyphenols in juice (residue) g = Mass of juice (residue) g × Total polyphenol content (mg / g) / 1000
[0078] Mass of total polyphenols in dried fruit g = Mass of total polyphenols in juice g + Mass of total polyphenols in residue g
[0079] Percentage of total polyphenols in juice (residue) in total polyphenols in dried fruit % = Mass of total polyphenols in juice (residue) g / Mass of total polyphenols in dried fruit g * 100%
[0080] Based on the method constructed in Example 1, determine the contents of water-soluble components in Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi fruits, juice and residues: total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, total polysaccharides, and VC.
[0081] Based on the method constructed in Example 1, determine the contents of fat-soluble components in Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi fruits, juice, residues and residues: lutein, zeaxanthin, β-carotene, DL-α-tocopherol, β-sitosterol, and squalene. Specifically as follows:
[0082] The results are shown in Table 2 and Table 3. As can be seen from the table, the contents of total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, total polysaccharides, and VC in the water-soluble components of the dried fruits of Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi are 100.35 mg / g, 111.31 mg / g, 85.32 mg / g, 466.01 mg / g, and 43.76 mg / g, respectively; the contents of the fat-soluble components β-carotene, DL-α-tocopherol, β-sitosterol, and squalene in the dried fruits are 13.62 mg / 100 g, 18.71 mg / 100 g, 69.02 mg / 100 g, and 1.80 mg / 100 g, respectively. Lutein and zeaxanthin were not detected. The contents of total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, total polysaccharides, and VC in the water-soluble components of the dry powder of the pressed juice of Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi are 165.32 mg / g, 117.01 mg / g, 76.70 mg / g, 655.35 mg / g, and 67.20 mg / g, respectively; lutein, zeaxanthin, and squalene in the fat-soluble components of the pressed juice dry powder were not detected, and only a small amount of β-carotene, DL-α-tocopherol, and β-sitosterol were detected, and the contents of the latter three were 0.06 mg / 100 g, 0.71 mg / 100 g, and 4.65 mg / 100 g, respectively; the contents of total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, and total polysaccharides in the water-soluble components of the fruit residue powder of Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi are 80.37 mg / g, 145.00 mg / g, 87.50 mg / g, and 277.16 mg / g, respectively, but VC was not detected; the contents of the fat-soluble components lutein, zeaxanthin, β-carotene, DL-α-tocopherol, β-sitosterol, and squalene in the fruit residue powder are 1.02 mg / 100 g, 0.15 mg / 100 g, 13.98 mg / 100 g, 35.70 mg / 100 g, 150.22 mg / 100 g, and 7.17 mg / 100 g, respectively.
[0083] From the above direct content data, it can be seen that in addition to rich water-soluble active components, the fruits of Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi also contain a variety of fat-soluble active components; the pressed fruit juice and fruit residue contain most of the water-soluble components. Among them, the contents of total polyphenols and total polysaccharides in the fruit juice are higher than those in the fruit residue, while the contents of total flavonoids and total proanthocyanidins in the fruit residue are higher than those in the fruit juice, and VC was not detected in the residue; the fat-soluble components mainly exist in the fruit residue and are less in the fruit juice. Among them, lutein, zeaxanthin, and squalene were only detected in the fruit residue, while the contents of β-carotene, DL-α-tocopherol, and β-sitosterol are all higher in the fruit residue than in the fruit juice.

[0090] 2. Proportion analysis of water-soluble and fat-soluble components in seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruits, juices and residues
[0091] After the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruits are pressed, calculated according to the freeze-dried powder, the weight proportion analysis of the dry weights of its fruit juice and residue in the dried seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruits is as follows: the dry powder of fruit juice accounts for 32% and the dry powder of fruit residue accounts for 68%. According to the proportion of the dry products of fruit juice and fruit residue and the aforementioned content results, the mass distribution of each water-soluble component in the fruit juice and fruit residue of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt is shown in Table 4, and the distribution of each water-soluble component in the fruit juice and fruit residue in the dried seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruits can be further calculated. The results are as Figure 1 shown
[0092] The results show that after pressing and processing, VC mainly exists in the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt juice; 72.90% of the total flavonoids, 71.23% of the total proanthocyanidins, 51.34% of the total polyphenols, and 47.86% of the total polysaccharides still remain in the fruit residue

[0096] Similarly, the mass distribution results of each fat-soluble component in the fruit juice and fruit residue of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt are shown in Table 5, and the distribution results of each fat-soluble component in the fruit juice and fruit residue are further calculated as Figure 2 shown
[0097] The results show that more than 97% of the fat-soluble active components in the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruits exist in the fruit residue of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt, while the proportion of fat-soluble active components in its fruit juice is very small

[0099]
[0100] Note: All the samples to be tested are dried products
[0101] According to the research results, the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace contains almost all the fat-soluble components and most of the water-soluble components in the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt. These components have good pharmacological activities and health-care functions, and directly discarding them is a huge waste of resources. Therefore, it is of great significance to efficiently and greenly extract and analyze the content of a large number of bioactive components remaining in the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace for developing health products for preventing related diseases from waste and realizing the high-value comprehensive utilization of the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt.

[0114] 3. Extraction of water-soluble components from the residue of supercritical extraction of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace
[0115] Low-temperature high-pressure crushing water extraction: Accurately weigh the residue powder obtained by supercritical extraction and place it in a 250 mL stoppered glass conical flask. Add secondary water according to the solid-liquid ratio of 1:20 (g:mL), stir evenly, use a low-temperature high-pressure crushing extraction device to reduce the water circulation temperature of the device to 4 °C, pour 5 mL of solvent into the feed inlet for drainage, and then pour the evenly mixed seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace solution into the feed inlet in small amounts and multiple times. Extract at a pressure of 100 mPa for 20 min, centrifuge to remove the precipitate, and take the supernatant. The extract freeze-dried powder is obtained by vacuum freeze-drying method. Store it in a -20 °C refrigerator for later use.
[0116] Water stirring extraction (traditional method): Accurately weigh the residue powder obtained by supercritical extraction and place it in a 50 mL stoppered glass conical flask. Add secondary water according to the solid-liquid ratio of 1:20 (g:mL) and mix well. Add a magnetic stir bar to the conical flask and stir with a magnetic stirrer at 300 rpm and 25 °C for 60 min. Filter, take the filtrate, and then obtain the extract freeze-dried powder by vacuum freeze-drying method. Store it in a -20 °C refrigerator for later use.
[0117] Ultrasonic water-assisted extraction (traditional method): Accurately weigh the residue powder obtained by supercritical extraction and place it in a 50 mL stoppered glass conical flask.

[0118] The contents of water-soluble components in three different extracts, namely the ethanol reflux extract, ultrasonic ethanol-assisted extract, and supercritical CO2 extract of the residue obtained from the supercritical extraction of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace, were determined, and the results are shown in Table 7.
[0119] The results showed that the three extraction methods could all extract the total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, and total polysaccharides, which are water-soluble components. There were significant differences in the contents of total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, and total polysaccharides in the extracts obtained by different extractions. Among them, the contents of total polyphenols, total flavonoids, total proanthocyanidins, and total polysaccharides in the low-temperature high-pressure crushing water extract were all higher than those in the water stirring extract and ultrasonic water-assisted extract, reaching 68.5 mg / g, 77.25 mg / g, 47.74 mg / g, and 285.61 mg / g. It can be seen that the extraction, development, and utilization of the water-soluble components of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace are suitable for using the low-temperature high-pressure crushing extraction technology.

[0122] Note: Different lowercase letters indicate significant differences among the extracts (P < 0.05).
[0123] In summary, the supercritical CO2 extraction technology can be selected to extract the fat-soluble components from seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace, and the low-temperature high-pressure crushing extraction technology can be selected to extract the water-soluble components from seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace. By combining the two extraction technologies, the comprehensive utilization of the two components in seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace can be realized.

[0124] Example 4: Activity of seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt extract
[0125] Cell culture: LO2 cells were cultured under the conditions of 37 °C and 5% CO2, using DMEM high-glucose medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% double antibody. When the cell density reached 75% - 80%, subculture operations were carried out, and the 4th to 10th generation cells were selected for subsequent experiments.
[0126] Establishment of H2O2-induced LO2 cell injury model: Preparation of H2O2 mother liquor: Take 57 μL of 3% H2O2 solution, add 4943 μL of distilled water, and dilute to 1 mol / L to obtain the H2O2 mother liquor. Filter the solution using a 0.22 μm filter membrane and transfer it to an EP tube for standby. Cell treatment and grouping: In a 96-well plate, LO2 cells were seeded at 5 × 10 3Inoculate at a density of cells per well, and replace the culture medium with fresh medium after 24 hours of culture. The cells are divided into two groups: a control group and an H2O2 treatment group (concentration 200 - 1000 μM). The control group uses 200 μL of serum-free DMEM medium, and the H2O2 treatment group adds 10 mM H2O2 solution at different concentrations. Each group has 6 replicate wells and is incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 1 hour. After incubation, replace the medium and continue to culture for 24 hours. Finally, use a CCK-8 kit to detect the cell viability of each group.
[0127] (1) Activity of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice
[0128] 1) Effect of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice on the proliferation of LO2 cells
[0129] In a 96-well plate, inoculate logarithmic-phase LO2 cells at 5×10 3 cells per well, add complete medium, and culture at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours, then replace with fresh medium. The cells are divided into two groups: a normal group and a treatment group with seedless Rosa roxburghii juice solutions at different concentrations (18.75, 37.5, 75, 150, 300, 600 μg / mL). The working solutions of each concentration treatment group are prepared with complete medium. The normal group adds 100 μL of complete medium as a control, and the treatment groups add the medium containing the extract according to the concentration. Each experimental group has 3 replicate wells and continues to culture for 24 hours. Use the CCK-8 method to detect the cell viability of each group and evaluate the effect of the extract on the proliferation of LO2 cells. Cell viability = OD value of the test well / average OD value of the normal group.
[0130] 2) Effect of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice on the growth of H2O2-induced damaged LO2 cells
[0131] For the extract, in a 96-well plate, inoculate logarithmic-phase LO2 cells at 5×10 3 cells per well, add complete medium to each well, and culture in an incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours, then discard the original medium. The cells are assigned to different groups: a normal group, a model group, a positive control group, and a drug treatment group. The positive drug is N-acetylcysteine (NAC), 2 mM, and the concentrations of the drug treatment group are 75, 150, 300 μg / mL. The normal group adds serum-free DMEM medium, and the model group and the treatment groups add 600 μM H2O2 solution. Each group has 6 replicate wells. After incubating for 1 hour, discard the medium, then the treatment groups are replaced with seedless Rosa roxburghii juice solutions at different concentrations, while the control group keeps the medium unchanged and continues to culture for 24 hours. After incubation, wash the cells twice with PBS buffer, add CCK-8 reagent and continue to incubate for 4 hours, and finally determine the cell viability by measuring the absorbance value. Cell viability = OD value of the test well / average OD value of the normal group.
[0132] 3) Effects of Seedless Rosa roxburghii Juice on Liver Function and Oxidation Indexes of H2O2-Induced Damaged L02 Cells
[0133] In a 6-well plate, 4×10 5 logarithmic phase LO2 cells were inoculated, and complete medium was added to each well. They were cultured for 24 hours in an environment of 37°C and 5% CO2. After the culture ended, the old medium was discarded. The cells were assigned to different groups: normal group, model group, positive control group, and drug treatment group. The positive drug was NAC at 2 mM, and the concentrations of the drug treatment group were 150, 300, and 600 μg / mL respectively. Each group had 3 replicate wells. The normal group was added with an equal amount of serum-free medium. The model group and each treatment group were added with 600 μM H2O2 solution according to the pre-experiment protocol. Each group was incubated for 1 hour at 37°C and 5% CO2, and then the medium was discarded. After that, the treatment group was changed to complete medium containing the extract, and the normal group and the model group were added with the same volume of complete medium and continued to be incubated for 24 hours. After the incubation ended, the cells were washed twice with PBS buffer, and indexes such as ALT, AST, MDA, SOD, and GSH were detected according to the kit instructions.
[0134] As Figure 3 shown, (a) in the figure is the effect of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice on the proliferation of normal LO2 cells. As shown in the figure, within the concentration range of 18.75 - 600 μg / mL of Rosa roxburghii juice, there was no obvious cytotoxicity to LO2 cells, indicating that within the experimental concentration range, each group did not show obvious cytotoxicity. Therefore, the subsequent experiments can be carried out within the above concentration range. (b) in the figure is the effect of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice on the proliferation of normal LO2 cells. As shown in the figure, the cell viability of the model group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (P < 0.0001), indicating that the liver injury model was successfully established. Compared with the model group, the cell viabilities of the 150, 300, and 600 μg / mL concentration groups of seedless Rosa roxburghii juice were all significantly increased (P < 0.001), indicating that seedless Rosa roxburghii juice has the effect of reducing the damage of H2O2-induced LO2 cells. (2) Activity of Supercritical CO2 Extracts from Seedless Rosa roxburghii Pomace
[0135] 1) Anti-inflammatory Activity of Supercritical CO2 Extracts from Seedless Rosa roxburghii Pomace
[0136] Experimental method: RAW264.7 cells were cultured in DMEM high-glucose medium containing 10% FBS (containing 1% penicillin and streptomycin) in an incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2. RAW264.7 cells were not passaged using trypsin. After discarding the old medium, 3 mL of fresh complete medium was added, and the cells at the bottom of the culture dish were gently blown into a cell suspension, and then they could be passaged at a ratio of 1:2 - 1:3.
[0137] RAW264.7 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken, counted, and made into a cell suspension. Then, 100 μL of the cell suspension was aspirated and inoculated into a 96-well cell culture plate at a density of 3×10 4 cells per well, and incubated in an incubator for 24 h until the cells adhered to the wall. The old culture medium was discarded, and 100 μL of the drug-containing culture medium was added according to the negative control group, LPS group, and drug group (drug + LPS). Three replicate wells were set in each group, and the cells were intervened with the drug for 24 h. After the intervention, 50 μL of the supernatant of the cells was aspirated into a new 96-well plate, and 50 μL of Griess I reagent and 50 μL of Griess II reagent were added to the test wells in sequence. After reacting in the dark for 5 min, the absorbance of each well at 540 nm was measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader. The NO release was calculated by substituting into the standard curve.
[0138] The measurement results are shown in Figure 4 (a) and (b). Compared with the negative control, the NO release in the LPS group increased significantly (p < 0.001), while the supercritical CO2 extract of the seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace had an inhibitory effect on NO release in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells (p < 0.001 or p < 0.05), and the lowest effective concentration for anti-inflammatory was 37.5 μg / ml.
[0139] (3) Activity of water-soluble components (RSPLTE) in the residue extracted by supercritical CO2 from seedless Rosa roxburghii Tratt pomace
[0140] A. Effect of RSPLTE on H2O2-induced liver injury
[0141] Refer to the method in (1) to analyze the effects of RSPLTE on the proliferation of LO2 cells, the growth of L02 damaged cells induced by H2O2, and the liver function and oxidation indexes of L02 damaged cells induced by H2O2.
[0142] As shown in Figure 5 (a), in the range of 18.75 - 600 μg / mL of RSPLTE concentration, there was no obvious cytotoxicity to LO2 cells and it had a certain effect of promoting proliferation, but there was no significant difference compared with the normal group (P > 0.05). The concentrations of 75, 150, and 300 μg / mL were selected for preliminary screening in the subsequent pharmacodynamic experiments.
[0143] As shown in Figure 5 (b), the cell viability of the model group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (P < 0.001), indicating that the liver injury model was successfully established. Compared with the model group, the cell viability of the positive drug NAC group increased significantly (P < 0.001). Compared with the model group, the cell viabilities of the 75, 150, and 300 μg / mL concentration groups of RSPLTE all increased significantly (P < 0.001), indicating that RSPLTE had the effect of reducing the damage of LO2 cells induced by H2O2.
[0144] As Figure 5 shown in (c) and (d) below, the activities of AST and ALT in the cells of the model group were significantly increased compared with those of the normal group (P < 0.001), indicating that the liver injury cell model was successfully constructed. Compared with the model group, the activities of AST and ALT in the positive drug NAC group were significantly decreased (P < 0.001 or P < 0.01), and the activities of AST and ALT in the cells of each concentration group of RSPLTE decreased to varying degrees, indicating that this extract has a certain liver protection effect; among them, the activity of AST in the liver injury cells of each concentration group of RSPLTE was significantly decreased (P < 0.001), and the activity of ALT in the cells of the 300 μg / mL group was significantly decreased (P < 0.001). The results showed that RSPLTE has a certain repair effect on damaged LO2 human normal liver cells.
[0145] As Figure 5 shown in (e) below, compared with the normal group, the SOD activity of the cells in the model group was significantly decreased (P < 0.001). Compared with the model group, the SOD activities of the NAC positive group and the 75, 150, and 300 μg / mL groups of RSPLTE were significantly increased (P < 0.001). The results showed that RSPLTE can effectively scavenge superoxide anion radicals in cells, thereby improving cell damage.
[0146] As Figure 5 shown in (f) below, compared with the normal group, the MDA content of the cells in the model group was significantly increased (P < 0.001). Compared with the model group, the MDA content in the cells of the NAC positive group and the 150 and 300 μg / mL groups of RSPLTE was significantly decreased (P < 0.001). It shows that RSPLTE can reduce the degree of oxidative damage of H2O2 to LO2 cells and has a protective effect on LO2 cells in the oxidative stress state.
[0147] As Figure 5 shown in (g) below, the GSH content of the cells in the model group was significantly decreased compared with that of the normal group (P < 0.001), indicating that the liver injury model was successfully constructed. Compared with the model group, the GSH contents of the positive NAC group and the 150 and 300 μg / mL groups of RSPLTE were significantly increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and the most significant GSH content was in the 300 μg / mL group, indicating that RSPLTE has a good cell protection effect.
[0148] B. Effects of RSPLTE on mice with alcohol-induced liver injury
[0149] 1) Experimental grouping and drug administration
[0150] Healthy KM mice were randomly divided into a normal control group, a model group (56° white liquor), a positive control group (silymarin 150 mg / kg / d), and low, medium, and high-dose groups of RSPLTE (150, 300, 600 mg / kg / d), with 10 mice in each group. After one week of adaptive feeding, gavage treatment began. In the morning, the low, medium, and high-dose groups of RSPLTE were gavaged with different doses of RSPLTE, and the mice in the control group and the model group were gavaged with an equal volume of distilled water. In the afternoon, the mice in other groups except the control group were given 56° white liquor (10 mL / kg) to establish an acute alcoholic liver injury model. The experiment lasted for 16 days. For the last administration of medicine and liquor, the mice were fasted but allowed to drink water for 16 h. Subsequently, the mice were anesthetized with 50 mg / kg sodium pentobarbital and sacrificed by orbital blood collection. The blood was centrifuged at 3000 r / min for 10 min at 4 °C, and the serum was separated and stored in a -80 °C refrigerator for subsequent determination of biochemical indexes. Tissue processing: The liver tissues of the mice were quickly dissected aseptically, weighed, and recorded. Part of the liver tissue was fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde to ensure that the fixed tissue positions of each mouse were the same. The remaining liver tissue was stored in a -80 °C environment for subsequent determination of indexes.
[0151] 2) Determination of mouse body weight and liver coefficient
[0152] During the modeling process, the body weights of the mice in each group were measured every two days to preliminarily evaluate the effect of RSPLTE on the basic body weight of the mice. After the last administration, the mice were fasted for 16 h, allowed to drink water freely, and their livers were removed and processed and weighed during the dissection of the mice. The liver coefficient was calculated based on the liver weight to further observe the effect of the water extract of Rosa sterilis S. D. Shi pomace on the liver coefficient of mice with acute alcohol poisoning. The liver coefficient was calculated using the following formula: Liver index % = liver mass g / mouse body mass g × 100%.
[0153] 3) Detection of liver oxidative stress indexes
[0154] Weigh 0.1 g of mouse liver tissue and store it at -80 °C. Add pre-cooled physiological saline according to a volume ratio of 1:9 to prepare a 10% tissue homogenate. Grind the tissue completely under ice-water bath conditions. After grinding, centrifuge the homogenate at 3000 r / min for 15 min at 4 °C, and aspirate the supernatant. Use a BCA protein concentration assay kit to detect the protein concentration of each group of samples. And according to the method in the kit instructions, determine the activities or contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT).
[0155] 4) Detection of liver tissue inflammatory factors
[0156] According to the instructions and operation requirements of the kit, the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α in the livers of mice were measured.
[0157] 5) Data processing and analysis
[0158] Experimental data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (Mean ± SD). All data analysis and chart drawing were completed using GraphPad Prism 12.0 software. One-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA) was used for comparison among multiple groups, and statistical significance was determined by P < 0.05.
[0159] During the alcohol gavage period, the body weights of mice in each group increased slowly with the prolongation of the gavage time. There were no significant differences in the body weights of mice in each RSPLTE dose group compared with the normal group (P > 0.05). In addition, at the end of the gavage, no deaths occurred in all mice, which preliminarily indicated that gavage with 56° Baijiu and different doses of RSPLTE had no significant effect on the body weights of mice. The liver coefficient of mice in the model group increased by 0.42% compared with the normal group (P < 0.001), indicating liver enlargement due to excessive alcohol consumption. At the same time, compared with the model group, the liver index of mice in the high-dose group decreased by 0.31% (P < 0.01), indicating that RSPLTE could effectively relieve liver enlargement caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
[0160] As Figure 6 shown, the contents of GSH, CAT, and SOD in the liver tissues of mice in the model group were significantly lower than those in the normal group (P < 0.001), while the content of MDA was significantly increased (P < 0.001), indicating that oxidative stress occurred in the mouse liver and hepatocytes were damaged, further demonstrating the successful establishment of the model. Compared with the model group, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the liver tissues of mice in the positive drug group and different RSPLTE dose groups was significantly decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The contents of GSH, CAT, and SOD were significantly increased (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). These results indicated that RSPLTE could effectively reduce the content of harmful substance MDA, and increase the activities or contents of GSH, CAT, and SOD, thereby enhancing the body's ability to scavenge free radicals, reducing the damage caused by oxidative stress, and thus achieving the effect of protecting the liver.
[0161] As Figure 7As shown, in the livers of the mice in the model group, the levels of pro-inflammatory factors were significantly increased compared with the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, both the positive group and the high-dose RSPLTE group could significantly reduce the levels in the livers of mice (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). By increasing the levels of pro-inflammatory factors in the liver, RSPLTE can inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory factors, reduce the ethanol-induced inflammatory response, and play a hepatoprotective role.
[0162] C. Effect of RSPLTE on tyrosinase activity
[0163] Refer to the method recorded in the group standard T / GDCA 006-2021 of Guangdong Cosmetics Society (Test Method for Inhibitory Effect of Cosmetic Raw Materials on Tyrosinase Activity (In Vitro Method)) to determine the effect of RSPLTE on tyrosinase activity.
[0164] The results are as Figure 8 shown, RSPLTE has an obvious inhibitory effect on tyrosinase activity. By inhibiting tyrosinase activity, melanin production can be reduced, thus achieving the effects of whitening and lightening spots.
