Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of biological medicine, and in particular to a composition based on Dendrobium nobile, a preparation method thereof and application of the composition in preparing soft capsules, buccal tablets and oral dissolving film preparations. BACKGROUND

[0002] Dendrobium nobile Lindl., a perennial herb of Orchidaceae Dendrobium, is a traditional and precious Chinese medicinal material recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Its main active ingredients are polysaccharides, alkaloids, flavonoids and phenolic acid compounds. Modern pharmacological studies have confirmed that it has multiple biological activities such as enhancing immunity, antioxidant, moistening lung and generating fluid, and reducing blood sugar.

[0003] In recent years, the development of medicinal and health care value of Dendrobium nobile has made much progress. For example, Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN107569608B discloses a pharmaceutical composition for reducing blood sugar, which realizes the effect of significantly reducing postprandial blood sugar by combining gypenosides with Dendrobium nobile ultrafine powder in a specific ratio. Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN109394977B discloses a traditional Chinese medicine composition with the function of reducing blood lipids, which solves the problem of limited effect of single component in reducing blood lipids by scientifically compounding gypenoside extract and Dendrobium nobile extract. In the field of skin care, Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN115737754B discloses a traditional Chinese medicine composition with the dual effects of anti-allergy and anti-inflammation, which is applied to various skin care products by compounding Dendrobium nobile extract with extract of Privet and Artemisia leaf. Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN114886813B discloses an anti-aging plant extraction composition, which improves the skin aging phenomenon by using the synergistic effect of Dendrobium nobile stem extract and extract of Magnolia liliflora and Gastrodia root.

[0004] However, the existing technology still has the following limitations in the development and application of Dendrobium nobile. Firstly, in the extraction process, most studies use traditional crushing, solvent soaking or simple enzymatic hydrolysis methods. For example, CN107569608B only uses ultrafine powder treatment, and CN109394977B does not optimize the extraction parameters, resulting in low dissolution rate of active ingredients, easy degradation of heat-sensitive components, and restriction of bioavailability. Secondly, the existing combination is mainly for single effect, and there is less exploration of the synergistic effect of Dendrobium nobile and other active ingredients in enhancing immunity and antioxidant.

[0005] Therefore, new solutions are needed to address the technical bottlenecks of existing Dendrobium nobile preparations in terms of extraction efficiency and efficacy synergy. SUMMARY

[0090] Test Example 1

[0091] The purpose of this test example is to observe the effects of different extraction processes on the retention of active ingredients, EGCG stability and bioavailability of D. candidum extract, specifically:

[0092] 1.1 Determination of active ingredient content

[0093] Sample source: D. candidum extract powder of Examples 1-2 (ladder type ultrasonic- hot water combined extraction), Comparative Examples 1-5 (single extraction process).

[0094] Detection index: polysaccharide (phenol-sulfuric acid method), total flavonoids (aluminum salt colorimetric method), and shihua alkali (HPLC method).

[0095] Experimental repetition: 3 parallel experiments for each group, the results are expressed as "mean ± standard deviation", and the experimental results are shown in Table 1:

[0096] Table 1 Comparison of active ingredient content of extracts from different extraction processes (mass percentage, %)

[0097] Group Polysaccharide content Total flavonoid content Shihualine content Example 1 48.7±1.2 18.3±0.8 2.8±0.1 Example 2 45.2±1.1 16.5±0.7 2.5±0.2 Comparative Example 1 35.2±0.9 15.1±0.6 2.1±0.1 Comparative Example 2 42.6±1.0 8.7±0.4 0.9±0.1 Comparative Example 3 36.4±1.1 9.2±0.4 1.3±0.1 Comparative Example 4 25.3±1.2 2.1±0.3 0.5±0.1 Comparative Example 5 39.8±0.8 7.3±0.5 0.7±0.1

[0098] The above experimental results show that different extraction processes have significant differences in the retention effect of active ingredients in D. candidum extract. The stepwise ultrasonic- hot water combined extraction process realizes the synergistic retention of active ingredients in D. candidum through stepwise optimization of ethanol phase (50%) and water phase (70°C). The polysaccharide (48.7%), total flavonoids (18.3%) and shihua alkali (2.8%) contents of Example 1 are significantly higher than those of the single extraction process group, and this result is due to the complementary dissolution capacity of the two-phase solvent for different polarity components: the ethanol phase can efficiently dissolve fat-soluble flavonoids and alkaloids, while the 70°C water phase can fully extract water-soluble polysaccharides. Experimental data further reveals the key influence of temperature control on component retention: the flavonoid content of Comparative Example 2 (70°C water extraction) is only 48% of Example 1, the flavonoid loss rate of Comparative Example 3 (80°C water extraction) is more than 50%, and the shihua alkali content of Comparative Example 4 (100°C decoction) is the lowest due to high temperature. In contrast, the stepwise process controls the degradation rate of heat-sensitive components (such as flavonoids and shihua alkali) to within 15% by strictly controlling the ethanol phase temperature ≤55°C and the water phase temperature ≤70°C, while avoiding the polysaccharide deficiency (35.2% vs 48.7%) caused by the lack of hot water dissolution step in single ultrasonic extraction (Comparative Example 1). This process not only solves the component imbalance problem of traditional single solvent extraction, but also further destroys the plant cell wall structure through the pretreatment steps of ultrafine grinding (100 mesh) and composite enzymolysis (cellulase-pectinase mass ratio 1:2), which improves the dissolution efficiency of active ingredients and lays a foundation for the subsequent membrane separation and purification and freeze-drying process of high-quality raw materials.

[0099] 1.2 EGCG stability and antioxidant synergistic effect experiment

[0100] Sample treatment: Mix each extract (including Examples 1-2, Comparative Examples 1-5) with EGCG (commercial product, purity ≥98%) according to a mass ratio of 7:3 to prepare a composite, and at the same time, add:

[0101] Single control group 1 (only D. candidum extract of Example 1, without commercial EGCG);

[0102] Single control group 2 (only commercial EGCG, without D. candidum extract);

[0103] Proportion adjustment group 1 (according to mass fraction, D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 1:9);

[0104] Proportion adjustment group 2 (according to mass fraction, D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 3:7)

[0110]

[0111] The above experimental results show that:

[0112] The experimental data reveals a clear positive correlation between the extract ratio and the stability of EGCG: the 7:3 ratio of extract to EGCG (Example 1) exhibits the optimal balance of "stability-activity", and the core mechanism lies in the multi-dimensional protective network formed by the active ingredients of Dendrobium candidum. The experimental data shows that the EGCG retention rate increases linearly with the increase of the extract ratio (R 2 = 0.97): when the extract ratio increases from 10% (1:9) to 90% (9:1), the retention rate increases from 70.2% to 95.1%, which is due to the phenolic hydroxyl donor function of flavonoids - flavonoids form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with EGCG, shielding the oxidation-sensitive sites of its ortho-diphenol hydroxyl groups, while the steric hindrance effect of polysaccharides reduces the contact probability of EGCG with oxygen molecules. However, the antioxidant activity shows the opposite trend: as the concentration of EGCG decreases, the DPPH scavenging EC 50 value increases from 3.0 μg / mL (1:9 ratio) to 9.0 μg / mL (9:1 ratio), indicating that high concentration of EGCG is the basis for maintaining strong antioxidant activity. It is worth noting that the 7:3 ratio (Example 1) achieves a precise balance between the two: the EGCG retention rate is 91.7% (close to 95.1% of the 9:1 group), and the DPPH scavenging activity (EC 50 = 5.3 μg / mL) is nearly 1 times higher than that of the single extract (10.5 μg / mL). The comparative experiment further confirms that the high-temperature extraction group (such as Comparative Example 3, 80°C water extraction) has a flavonoid content of only 9.2% (50% of Example 1), and its EGCG retention rate (55.0%) and antioxidant activity (EC 50= 20.5 pg / mL) significantly decreased, verifying the necessity of the ladder process for flavone retention. In addition, the retention rate of the single control group 2 (only EGCG) was only 65.0%, directly proving that the D. candidum extract is a key protective factor for EGCG stability, and the 7:3 ratio is the optimal choice that takes into account "protection efficiency" and "activity contribution".

[0113] 1.3 Bioavailability experiment

[0114] Animal model: SD rats (male, 200 ± 20 g), 6 in each group.

[0115] Group setting: including Example 1 (D. candidum extract: EGCG = 7:3 by mass fraction), single control group 2 (only commercial EGCG, without D. candidum extract), and:

[0116] Proportion adjustment group 1 (D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 1:9 by mass fraction);

[0117] Proportion adjustment group 2 (D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 3:7 by mass fraction)

[0118] Proportion adjustment group 3 (D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 5:5 by mass fraction) Proportion adjustment group 4 (D. candidum extract (Example 1): EGCG = 9:1 by mass fraction);

[0119] Sample solution preparation: accurately weigh each composition (containing 100 mg of total EGCG), add 20 mL of 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC-Na) solution, vortex for 5 min to prepare a sample solution with an EGCG content of 5 mg / mL;

[0120] Dosing method: each group of rats was given sample solution by gavage, the dosing volume was 10 mL / kg, the blood sampling time points were 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h, the single blood sampling volume was about 0.3 mL / time, the plasma EGCG concentration (LC-MS / MS method) was determined, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated.

[0121] The experimental results are shown in Table 3:

[0122] Table 3: Pharmacokinetic parameters of rats orally taking extract-EGCG compound

[0123] Group AUC 0-24 (h-μg / mL) C max (μg / mL) T max (h)]]> Example 1 19.3±1.5 3.2±0.2 1.5 Proportion adjustment group 1 8.2±0.6 1.8±0.1 1.2 Proportion adjustment group 2 12.1±0.9 2.5±0.2 1.3 Proportion adjustment group 3 15.7±1.1 2.9±0.2 1.4 Proportion adjustment group 4 18.5±1.3 3.0±0.2 1.6 Single control group 2 6.5±0.5 1.5±0.1 1.0

[0124] The above experimental results show that the rat pharmacokinetic study reveals the synergistic promotion effect of the ladder extraction process and ratio optimization on the in vivo absorption of EGCG. The AUC of Example 1 group (7:3 ratio)0-24 The value (19.3 h pg / mL) was 3 times that of the single EGCG group (6.5 h pg / mL), and the C max (3.2 pg / mL) and T max (1.5 h) was also significantly better than other ratio groups, and this improvement was due to the synergistic effect of three mechanisms: first, the intestinal metabolic enzyme (UGT1A1) activity was specifically inhibited by the water-phase extracted Dendrobium polysaccharides, which prolonged the retention time of EGCG in the body (T max 0.5 h longer than the single EGCG group); second, the ethanol-phase dissolved Dendrobium alkaloids could open the tight junctions of intestinal epithelial cells, increasing the permeability of the mucosa, which reduced the AUC value of Comparative Example 1 (ultrasonic extraction only, Dendrobium alkaloids 2.1%) by 34% compared with Example 1; finally, the complex formed by flavonoids and EGCG could improve the absorption efficiency through the receptor-mediated transmembrane transport pathway (e.g., the AUC value of the 5:5 ratio of Comparative Adjustment Group 3 was 15.7 h pg / mL, which was significantly higher than the 12.1 h pg / mL of the 3:7 ratio). A key phenomenon was observed in the ratio experiment: when the extract ratio increased to 90% (9:1 group), although the AUC value (18.5 h pg / mL) was close to that of Example 1, the C max significantly decreased (3.0 vs 3.2 pg / mL), indicating that the contribution of high-concentration EGCG to rapid absorption could not be replaced. The bioavailability of the comparative groups was generally low due to the absence or destruction of components: the AUC value of Comparative Example 2 (70°C water extraction, flavonoids 8.7%) was only 33% of that of Example 1, and the AUC value of Comparative Example 4 (100°C decoction) was only 5.1 h pg / mL due to the severe degradation of active ingredients, further verifying the necessity of the process temperature threshold (water phase ≤ 70°C) and the ratio optimization (7:3).

[0125] In summary, the stepwise ultrasonic-thermal water combined extraction process, through the innovative design of "two-phase solvent step-by-step extraction + temperature threshold control", systematically solves the problems of low retention rate of active ingredients and poor functional synergy in traditional extraction methods. In terms of component retention, the step-by-step extraction of ethanol phase (≤ 55°C) and water phase (≤ 70°C) achieves the synergistic dissolution of flavonoids, alkaloids, and polysaccharides, avoiding the selectivity limitations of single solvents and the degradation of heat-sensitive components (e.g., Dendrobium alkaloids were not detected in the 100°C decoction group); in terms of functional synergy, the 7:3 extract-EGCG ratio balances stability (retention rate 91.7%) and antioxidant activity (EC 50= 5.3 pg / mL), the core mechanism is the hydrogen bond protection of flavonoids, the steric hindrance effect of polysaccharides and the promotion of EGCG transmembrane transport; at the level of bioavailability, the extract prepared by the ladder process makes the AUC value of EGCG reach 3 times of the single EGCG group through the triple effect of delaying metabolism, enhancing penetration and optimizing transport, and the rapid dissolution characteristics (2.8 seconds) of the oral dissolving film dosage form meet the clinical needs of oral administration. Based on the experimental results, the core value of this process is reflected in three dimensions: first, the temperature-sensitive threshold (water phase ≤ 70°C) is determined, which provides a key parameter for industrial production; second, the functional ratio of 7:3 is verified, which lays a theoretical foundation for the development of compound preparations; third, the integration optimization of "component retention-function synergy-dosage form adaptation" is achieved, which provides a popular technical paradigm for the efficient use of active ingredients of natural products.
