Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine research, and specifically relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating Alzheimer's disease, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] It is known that Alzheimer's disease is one of the most common diseases among the elderly in the world (Ni R. Biomarkers for synaptic dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 683-684.), and its clinical treatment is very difficult. This is related to the accumulation of abnormal proteins in brain tissue and abnormal neurofibrillary structure (Sun Y, Pang X, Huang X, et al. Potential mechanisms of non-coding RNA regulation in Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 265-280.). High expression of β-amyloid protein in the hippocampus of brain tissue causes abnormal blood-brain barrier structure and degeneration and necrosis of brain neurons, which actively promotes the occurrence and development of Alzheimer's disease (Almeida VN, Higa GSV. Somatostatin interneurons and the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21(3): 1128-1129.).
[0003] Brain β-amyloid protein is not only a promoting factor of Alzheimer's disease (Bell SM, Mortiboys H. Astrocyte glycolysis in Alzheimer's disease When the stars burn out [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (3): 1130-1131.), but also interferes with brain tissue metabolism by reducing the level of brain neuronal metabolism, which promotes sterile inflammatory response in brain tissue (Solomon B, Voronov-Goldman M. Amyloid-beta is NOT only the most promising target for Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 681-682.), and this sterile inflammatory response can aggravate the deposition of brain β-amyloid protein, forming a positive feedback loop system (Riffo-Lepe N, González-Sanmiguel J, Armijo-Weingart L, et al. Synaptic and Synchronic impairments in subcortical brain regions associated with early non-cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21(1): 248-264.), which is very unfavorable for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
[0004] Data show that Alzheimer's disease usually presents with a decline in self-learning ability (Komai M, Takasugi N. Potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease astrocyte pathology based on nuclear lipid regulation [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 322-323.), an inability to learn deeply, and a subsequent decline in self-memory, inability to remember recent events. Alzheimer's disease has a significant decline in learning and memory ability (Chen XQ. A novel generation of potent gamma-secretase modulators Combat Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome-associated Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 316-317.), which is related to the persistent damage to the hippocampus of the brain tissue caused by the deposition of β-amyloid protein in the brain tissue.
[0005] The age of onset of Alzheimer's disease is usually older (Guo HH, Ou HN, Yu JS, et al. Adiponectin as a potential mediator of the pro-cognitive effects of physical exercise on Alzheimer's disease[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 96-106.). In recent years, data have shown that Alzheimer's disease can also occur in middle-aged people. This is related to the deposition of β-amyloid protein in brain tissue, which induces the activation of free radicals in the body's brain tissue and promotes the development of Alzheimer's disease (Yue Q, Li S, Lei CL, et al. Insights into the transcriptomic heterogeneity of brain endothelial cells in normal aging and Alzheimer's disease[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 569-576.), brain tissue free radical activation, usually accompanied by abnormalities in the footplate structure of brain tissue astrocytes, which in turn causes changes in the permeability of the brain tissue blood-brain barrier and induces an imbalance in the brain tissue choline metabolism system (Acosta D, Wang C, Ma Q, et al. Utilizing Single-cell and Spatial RNA-seq databas E for Alzheimer's Disease ssREAD in hypothesis-driven queries[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 677-678.), abnormal expression of acetylcholine metabolic enzymes, increased accumulation of brain tissue free radicals, and further induction of aseptic inflammatory response in the brain tissue.
[0006] Data show that Alzheimer's disease brain tissue often has abnormal levels of interleukin-1β, an inflammatory mediator (Jahan I, Harun Ur Rashid M, Islam MA, et al. Neuronal plasticity and its role in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 107-125.), which is also related to abnormal microglial cells in brain tissue. Abnormal microglia in the brain tissue of patients with Alzheimer's disease produce a large amount of inflammatory mediator interleukin-1β (Sha S, Ren L, Xing X, et al. Recent advances in immunotherapy targeting amyloid-beta and tauopathies in Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 577-587.), and the inflammatory mediator interleukin-1β promotes further accumulation of β-amyloid protein in brain tissue, prompting the abnormal accumulation of Alzheimer's disease characteristic structure, namely senile plaques, in the brain tissue, and promoting the development of Alzheimer's disease (Fu H, Li J, Zhang C, et al. Pathological axonalenlargement in connection with amyloidosis lysosome destabilization, and bleeding is a major defect in Alzheimer's disease [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 790-799.), aggravating the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, accompanied by an imbalance in the choline metabolism system in the brain tissue (Rytter ME, Svane CAB, Størling J, et al. Dysregulated insulin signaling and inflammation contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease From animal models to human cells[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (3): 1126-1127.), so effective treatment of Alzheimer's disease requires improving the level of interleukin-1β, a inflammatory mediator in brain tissue, and the level of choline metabolism in brain tissue.
[0007] Studies have shown that beta-amyloid protein deposition in the cortical region and hippocampal region of Alzheimer's disease brain tissue is one of the common important factors (Zeng L, Zhao K, Liu J, et al. Long noncoding RNA GAS5 acts as a competitive endogenous RNA to regulate GSK 3beta and PTEN expression bysponging miR-23b-3p in Alzheimer's disease[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (1): 392-405.), especially the hippocampus 1 and hippocampus 3 of the brain tissue are key areas for learning and memory. The deposition of β-amyloid protein in hippocampal areas 1 and 3 of brain tissue accelerates the progression of Alzheimer's disease (Lin AL, Aware C. Rapamycin as a preventive intervention for Alzheimer's disease in APOE4 carriers Targeting brain metabolic and vascular restoration [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 685-686.). For this reason, many researchers have used the injection of β-amyloid protein into hippocampal areas 1 and 3 of brain tissue to establish an animal model of Alzheimer's disease. When the β-amyloid protein content in hippocampal areas 1 and 3 of the brain tissue increases (Ayyappan K, Unger L, Kitchen P, et al. Measuring glymphatic function Assessing the toolkit [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 534-541.), it will induce abnormal protein accumulation in brain tissue and abnormal neurofibrillary structure, leading to the formation of abnormal accumulation of senile plaques in brain tissue and imbalance of the choline metabolism system in brain tissue (Chen H, Li N, Cai Y, et al. Exosomes in neurodegenerative diseases Therapeutic potential and modification methods [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (2): 478-490.). Therefore, this method is reliable for preparing an animal model of Alzheimer's disease.
[0008] There are many types of clinical drugs known to treat Alzheimer's disease, such as estrogen (Wang X, Feng S, Deng Q, et al. The role of estrogen in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis and therapeutic potential in women [J]. Mol Cell Biochem, 2025, 480 (4): 1983-1998.), anti-β-amyloid drugs, memantine, vitamin B6 (Pranindya Sari A, Reviono, Susanto AD, et al. Can pyridoxine function as an anti-pyroptosis agent A narrative review [J]. Inflammopharmacology, 2025, 33 (5): 2341-2349.), antioxidants, donepezil hydrochloride (Bhattacharya RS, Singh R, Panghal A, et al. Multi-Targeting Phytochemicals for Alzheimer's Disease [J]. Phytother Res, 2025, 39 (3): 1453-1483.), sertraline, oxiracetam (Barker-Haliski M. Seizing the opportunity to therapeutically address neuronalhyperexcitability in Alzheimer's disease [J]. J Alzheimers Dis, 2025, 103 (3): 662-665.), nimodipine, risperidone (Zhou J, Wei Z, Huang W, et al. al.Multiple Adverse ReactionsAssociated With the Use of Second-Generation Antipsychotics in People WithAlzheimer's Disease A Pharmacovigilance Analysis Based on the FDA AdverseEvent Reporting System[J]. Ann Pharmacother, 2025, 59(3): 213-222.), and ginkgo biloba preparations can all treat Alzheimer's disease. However, these medications, including memantine, estrogen, anti-β-amyloid drugs, vitamin B6, antioxidants, donepezil hydrochloride, sertraline, oxiracetam, nimodipine, risperidone, and ginkgo biloba preparations, all have varying degrees of side effects, which can cause irreversible damage to Alzheimer's brain tissue. Consequently, many researchers have shifted treatment strategies in recent years, selecting newly developed traditional Chinese medicine combinations based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory to treat Alzheimer's disease, characterized by holistic effects, coordinated drug intervention, and minimal side effects. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiencies of the existing technology. Combining the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that Alzheimer's disease is mostly caused by the body's deficiency of the root and excess of the superficial symptoms (Liu Jingwen, Zhang Zijia, Wang Kaili, et al. The role of apolipoprotein E4 in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and the idea of early intervention with traditional Chinese medicine [J]. Journal of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, 2025, 42 (02): 512-517.), and is often accompanied by emotional imbalance, marrow deficiency, poor blood circulation, insufficient qi and blood, stagnation of qi, and spleen and stomach imbalance. The specific manifestation of Alzheimer's disease is the body's kidney qi deficiency (Miao Qi, Zhu Renyan, Li Niannian, et al. Progress in Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease [J]. Journal of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine, 2024, 47 (01): 139-142.), and marrow deficiency, which is related to the advanced age, functional decline of physiological functions, and functional failure of pathological organs of many elderly people. In fact, when the body's kidney qi is abundant, it will help avoid the body's marrow sea being empty and the brain tissue marrow sea being sufficient (Zhao Jie, Zhao Ming, Pei Hui, et al. Based on "Lingshu Benshen", explore the understanding and treatment of Alzheimer's disease from the "heart-spleen-kidney" axis [J]. Journal of Yunnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2023, 46 (03): 1-7.), then the kidney yang is sufficient, and the learning ability is strong. The body's organ functions can be normally exerted, which is beneficial to enhance the body's immunity and improve the level of cellular immunity and humoral immunity. This will reduce the accumulation of free radicals in brain tissue, reduce the level of neuronal degeneration, and help slow down the pace of decline in learning and memory ability in the elderly. It can be seen that the treatment of Alzheimer's disease requires the supplementation of kidney yang. The selection of Chinese herbal medicines that nourish the kidney has a theoretical basis for the active treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Data show that the organs of the elderly degenerate to varying degrees (Wang Shuaizhe, Wang Jiawei, Wei Benjun. Exploring the effect of pungent opening and bitter descending method on Alzheimer's disease based on the brain-gut axis [J]. Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2023, 51 (12): 10-14.). The digestive and absorptive functions of the digestive system are reduced, causing the body to experience stomach pain, gastritis, disharmony of the Ying and Wei systems, malnutrition of the spirit, rheumatic pain, and then causing kidney deficiency, promoting the deposition of β-amyloid protein in the brain tissue, accumulation of free radicals in the brain tissue, and neuronal degeneration, which will aggravate the condition of Alzheimer's disease. It can be seen that the treatment of Alzheimer's disease needs to start with stomach strengthening. The selection of stomach-strengthening Chinese herbal medicines has a theoretical basis for the active treatment of Alzheimer's disease.Elderly people often suffer from kidney deficiency, which causes dampness toxin accumulation, eczema, and poor blood circulation (Li Xing, Zhang Hong, Tao Jiming. Modern neurobiological exploration of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease with deficiency and excess in the superficial part [J]. Shizhen Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2023, 34 (02): 398-400.). The skin and internal organs of the body show different degrees of inflammatory changes, which can be manifested as chronic, acute, and subacute dampness toxin accumulation, forming exudative papules, erosive erythema, and lichenification on the skin and internal organs of the body, accompanied by different degrees of itching, promoting the increase of β-amyloid protein expression in the skin and internal organs of the body, especially the increase of β-amyloid protein expression in brain tissue, promoting the increase of free radical activation, and neuronal degeneration (Zhao Shuyang, Zhao Jianhe, Liu Zhihong, et al. Research on the treatment of Alzheimer's disease with traditional Chinese medicine based on data mining, network pharmacology and molecular dynamics simulation). Medication rules and mechanism of action for Alzheimer's disease [J]. World Science and Technology - Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2025, 27 (06): 1766-1779.), accelerate the induction of Alzheimer's disease; in fact, the body will promote the active treatment of Alzheimer's disease by regulating the Qi, adjusting the internal organs, external intervention, smooth Qi flow, and restoring Qi. It can be seen that the treatment of Alzheimer's disease needs to start with removing dampness and regulating Qi (Zhao Ming, Li Hao, Liu Nanyang, et al. A brief analysis of the theory and application of the method of ascending the clear and descending the turbid to prevent and treat senile dementia [J]. Global Chinese Medicine, 2021, 14 (02): 278-281.), and the selection of Chinese herbal medicines that remove dampness and regulate Qi has a theoretical basis for the active treatment of Alzheimer's disease (Sun Yan. Research on relevant TCM medical cases of senile dementia in history [D]. Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, 2020.). Therefore, based on the comprehensive analysis of the above data, effective treatment of Alzheimer's disease requires tonifying the kidneys and stomach, removing dampness and regulating qi. It is feasible to choose tonifying the kidneys and stomach, removing dampness and regulating qi to treat Alzheimer's disease based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

Simultaneously, the cat-scare method was combined to create an Alzheimer's disease animal model. Animal dosing schedule: Every morning, the hippocampus of the brain tissue of Kunming mice in the model comparison group, western medicine control group, experimental lower dose group, experimental intermediate dose group, and experimental higher dose group was injected with β-amyloid protein 1-42 (intervention concentration was 80 pmol / µL), and the Kunming mice in the surgical group were injected with sterile saline. The Kunming mice in the blank experimental group did not receive any intervention. The Kunming mice were intervened with this method for 20 days; every afternoon, the Kunming mice in the model comparison group, western medicine control group, experimental lower dose group, experimental intermediate dose group, and experimental higher dose group were intervened with the cat-scaring mouse method. The Kunming mice in the blank experimental group and surgical group were not intervened with the cat-scaring mouse method. The Kunming mice were intervened with this method for 20 days.
[0041] 2.2 Extraction of the required newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition A Chinese herbal medicine composition consisting of 20g of Chinese herbal medicine Herba Cynanchifoliae, 12g of Chinese herbal medicine Weiyou, 11g of Chinese herbal medicine Perilla frutescens, and 11.5g of Chinese herbal medicine Linglingxiang was prepared into a water decoction. The preparation method of the dry paste and dry powder was the same as that of Examples 2 and 3.
[0042] 2.3 Calculation of dosage and administration to animals This experiment used a 0.0026:1 ratio to calculate the dosage for Kunming strain mice. The newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition includes 20g of the Chinese herbal medicine Herba Anthocereus, 12g of the Chinese herbal medicine Herba Weiyou, 11g of the Chinese herbal medicine Herba Perillae, and 11.5g of the Chinese herbal medicine Herba Lingling. The newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition contains 54.5g of Herba Anthocereus, Herba Weiyou, Herba Perillae, and Herba Lingling. This experiment required the calculation of the medium dose of a newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition composed of the Chinese herbal medicines hongxincao, weiyou, perilla, and linglingxiang as 54.5 g × 0.0026 × 50 = 7.09 g / kg. This experiment required the calculation of the high dose of a newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition composed of the Chinese herbal medicines hongxincao, weiyou, perilla, and linglingxiang as 54.5 g × 0.0026 × 50 × 2 = 14.18 g / kg. This experiment required the calculation of the low dose of a newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition composed of the Chinese herbal medicines hongxincao, weiyou, perilla, and linglingxiang as 54.5 g × 0.0026 × 50 / 2 = 3.54 g / kg. The dose of donepezil administered to Kunming strain mice in the Western medicine control group was 0.001 g / kg. The blank experimental group, the surgically created group, and the model comparison group were treated with an equal volume of normal saline. The Kunming strain mice in each group were treated for 28 days, followed by subsequent experimental analysis.
[0043] 2.4 Analysis of Animal Learning Ability Decreased learning and memory ability is one of the common manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (Liu Y, Ding X, Jia S, et al. Current understanding and prospects for targeting neurogenesis in the treatment of cognitive impairment[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21(1): 141-155.), and various experimental analyses of the learning ability of experimental animals are common methods for assessing Alzheimer's disease (Fan T, Peng J, Liang H, et al. Potential common pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21(3): 972-988.). This experiment used an animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) to analyze the learning ability of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals. The internal and external reference objects of this apparatus were consistent. The heads of the experimental animals, Kunming mice, were stained with Chinese ink. The training time of quadrants I, II, and III of the animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) was calculated. The training time was 60 seconds each time. On the fifth day, the latency period of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was calculated using the water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) to evaluate the learning ability of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals.
[0044] 2.5 Analysis of interleukin-1β expression levels in brain tissue Abnormal expression of interleukin-1β is one of the common manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (Saiyisan A, Zeng S, Zhang H, et al. Chemical exchange saturation transfer MRI for neurodegenerative diseases An update on clinical and preclinical studies[J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21(2): 553-568.). In this experiment, an animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) was used to test the learning ability of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals. Then, the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were caught separately, and the brain tissues of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were collected under sterile conditions. The hippocampi of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were bluntly dissected out, and the supernatant of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was obtained by homogenization and centrifugation. The absorbance value (OD) of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was analyzed using a microplate reader at a wavelength of 450nm. The expression of interleukin-1β in the brain tissues of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was tested and evaluated to assess the level of inflammatory response in the brain tissues of Alzheimer's disease.
[0045] 2.6 Analysis of brain tissue choline acetylase protein levels Abnormal brain choline acetylase levels are a common manifestation of Alzheimer's disease (Zhang T, Yin Y, Xia X, et al. Regulation of synaptic function and lipid metabolism [J]. Neural Regen Res, 2026, 21 (3): 1037-1057.). In this experiment, the learning ability of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was tested using an animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.). After that, the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were captured, anesthetized, and their limbs were fixed. The Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were perfused with 90 mL of normal saline and about 50 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde at a uniform rate. After routine paraffin section staining, the choline acetylase content in the brain tissue of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was determined according to the basic method of the kit to evaluate the choline metabolism level in the brain tissue of Alzheimer's disease at the protein level.
[0046] 2.7 Analysis of choline acetyltransferase gene levels In this experiment, an animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, produced by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) was used to test the learning ability of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals. Then, the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were captured and their brain tissues were collected under sterile conditions. The hippocampi of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were bluntly dissected out, and choline acetylase mRNA of the Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was extracted and reverse transcribed into cDNA. Primers targeting choline acetylase of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were designed, and reaction parameters for choline acetylase of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals were set, including reaction at 50°C for 2.5 minutes, reaction at 95°C for 12 minutes, reaction at 95°C for 16 seconds, and reaction at 60°C for 1.2 minutes. After 45 basic cycles, the choline acetylase gene expression of Kunming mice in each group of experimental animals was measured using the instrument to evaluate the level of choline metabolism in brain tissue of Alzheimer's disease at the genetic level.
[0047] 2.8 Analysis of organ index and body weight This experiment used an animal water maze apparatus (MWM101, manufactured by Huaibei Zhenghua Co., Ltd.) to test the learning ability of Kunming mice. The mice were then captured and weighed at different time periods, including 0, 14, and 28 days. The mice were then sacrificed by decapitation. Vital organs were collected and their organ indices were calculated using the following formula: liver index, cardiac index, renal index, and lung index. The formula for calculating liver, kidney, heart, and lung index is: organ index (mg / g) = organ mass (mg) / Kunming mouse weight (g). This study evaluated the side effects of a newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition (including 20g of Hongxincao, 12g of Weiyou, 11g of Peilan, and 11.5g of Linglingxiang) on the Kunming mice.
[0048] 2.9 Data Statistical Analysis This experiment was analyzed using SPSS 19.0 software. ±s represents), one-way analysis of variance was used to compare data among multiple groups, and the intervention effects of the newly developed Chinese herbal medicine composition including 20g of Chinese herbal medicine Hongxincao, 12g of Chinese herbal medicine Weiyou, 11g of Chinese herbal medicine Peilan, and 11.5g of Chinese herbal medicine Linglingxiang were statistically analyzed.
