Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and in particular relates to the use of thymol in the preparation of drugs for the prevention and / or treatment of immunosuppressive diseases. Background Technology
[0002] The immune system is a vital system in the body that executes immune responses and functions. It consists of immune organs, immune cells, and immune molecules. The immune system recognizes and eliminates antigenic foreign substances and coordinates with other systems in the body to maintain homeostasis and physiological balance. Decreased immunity can lead to various defects in the immune system, resulting in changes in the number of monocytes and macrophages, affecting their phagocytic capacity and chemotactic responses, making the body more susceptible to pathogens and causing a range of clinical symptoms.
[0003] Many traditional Chinese medicines, their extracts, and compounds can regulate the body's immune function. For example, the aqueous extract of Achyranthes bidentata has an improving effect on the immune function of mice with cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression. The polysaccharide from Kuding tea and Ilex chinensis can enhance the immune activity of splenic lymphocytes in mice by promoting lymphocyte proliferation, enhancing cellular antioxidant capacity, and inducing the secretion of inflammatory cytokines, thus exerting its immunomodulatory effect. Other polysaccharides such as Atractylodes macrocephala, Platycodon grandiflorus extract, Cordyceps sinensis, Antrodia camphorata, and cinnamon can also improve the immune function of mice.
[0004] Medistigmine is a flavonoid compound with a pterostilbene nucleus structure, primarily derived from medicinal herbs such as *Spatholobus suberectus*, *Astragalus membranaceus*, and *Panax ginseng*. *Spatholobus suberectus* is a blood-activating and stasis-removing herb with blood-nourishing effects; *Astragalus membranaceus* is a qi-tonifying herb with qi-tonifying, yang-raising, fluid-generating, and blood-nourishing effects; and *Panax ginseng* has blood-activating and pain-relieving effects. However, there are no reports on the application of medissangine in the prevention and / or treatment of immunosuppressive diseases.

From the 5th to the 7th day of administration, except for the normal group and the control group, the other groups were injected intraperitoneally once a day with 80 mg / kg cyclophosphamide (i.e., the volume of 8 mg / mL cyclophosphamide solution administered was 0.1 mL / 10 g). The mice in the normal group and the control group were injected intraperitoneally with an equal volume of physiological saline.
[0058] 2.2 Sample Collection
[0059] Tail blood was collected 24 hours after the last administration for routine blood tests.
[0060] 2.3 Complete blood count (CBC)
[0061] A five-part differential hematology analyzer was used to perform routine blood tests, and the number of white blood cells, platelets, neutrophils, monocytes, and other blood cells in the tail blood of mice was recorded.
[0062] III. Experimental Results
[0063] 3.1 Medicin can increase the number of leukocytes in the peripheral blood of mice with immunosuppressive diseases.
[0064] The number of white blood cells in peripheral blood is an effective indicator for evaluating improvement in leukopenia. Complete blood count results show ( Figure 1A After 15 days of intervention with 5 mg / kg / d of thymol, the number of white blood cells in the peripheral blood of mice with chemotherapy-induced immunosuppressive diseases was significantly increased, demonstrating a significant white blood cell-boosting effect.
[0065] 3.2 Medicin can increase the number of platelets in the peripheral blood of mice with immunosuppressive diseases.
[0066] The number of platelets in peripheral blood is an effective indicator for evaluating improvement in thrombocytopenia. For example... Figure 1B The results showed that the number of platelets in the peripheral blood of mice with immunosuppressive diseases was significantly reduced; compared with the model group, the number of platelets was significantly increased after intervention with medroxypyridine.
[0067] 3.3 Medisin can increase the number of basophils in the peripheral blood of mice with immunosuppressive diseases.

[0077] 1.3 Experimental Animals and Grouping
[0078] SPF-grade male C57BL / 6 mice, 5 weeks old and weighing 20±2g, were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups of 5 mice each. The mice were given the specified gavage treatments: normal control group (Con), model group (Mod, 0.9% saline), and Med treatment group (Med, 5mg / kg / d). The administration volume was 0.15mL / 10g, once a day for 15 consecutive days.
[0079] II. Experimental Methods
[0080] 2.1 Dosing regimen and sample collection
[0081] Twenty-four hours after the last administration, the patient was euthanized by cervical dislocation, and serum was collected for cytokine content determination. The thymus and spleen were harvested for calculating the thymus index and spleen index. The femur was harvested for bone marrow nucleated cell counting, colony formation assay, bone marrow cytokine determination, and detection of the proportion and absolute number of bone marrow HSPCs.
[0082] 2.2 Bone marrow nucleated cell count
[0083] After euthanizing mice by cervical dislocation, the femur was immersed in 75% alcohol for 2 minutes. Under aseptic conditions, the femur was removed, and the muscles and connective tissue on the femur were removed with sterile gauze. 1 mL of DMEM culture medium was drawn using a syringe, and the bone marrow was flushed from the medullary cavity into a 1.5 mL sterile EP tube, repeated 3-5 times to ensure complete flushing. The cells were then mixed thoroughly with a pipette to prepare a single-cell suspension. 20 μL of the cell suspension was diluted to 1 mL with DMEM culture medium, and 10 μL of the diluted solution was dropped into the sample wells of an automated cell counting chamber and inserted into an automated cell counter for counting.
[0084] 2.3 Colony Formation Experiment
[0085] The cell suspension from step 2.2 was filtered through a 70 μm microporous membrane. The collected cell suspension was slowly added along the wall of a centrifuge tube to the top of an equal volume of Ficoll lymphocyte separation medium, and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 20 min. After centrifugation, the liquid separated into layers; the milky white, cloudy layer in the middle was the bone marrow mononuclear cells. The bone marrow mononuclear cells were aspirated, washed twice with 5 times their volume of culture medium, resuspended, and counted using an automated cell counter. The cell density was adjusted to 3 × 10⁻⁶ cells / mL. 5 / mL. Add 500μL of cell suspension to 5mL of M3434 methylcellulose medium and vortex vigorously to achieve a cell density of approximately 3×10⁹ / mL. 4 / mL. Spread 1 mL of cell suspension evenly into each well of a 24-well plate and incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2, and saturated humidity. After 8–10 days of incubation, observe under a microscope and count the number of colonies. A cell cluster with more than 50 cells is considered one colony for counting and statistical analysis.
[0086] 2.4 Organ Index Measurement
[0087] Carefully remove the thymus and spleen with tweezers, keeping the organs intact. After absorbing the liquid on the surface of the organs with absorbent paper, weigh them. The ratio of their weight to body weight is the thymus index and spleen index, with the unit being mg / 10g.
[0088] 2.5 Cytokine Level Measurement
[0089] Mouse serum and bone marrow supernatant were collected and processed using LEGENDplex. TM The MU Hematopoietic Stem Cell Panel kit measures cytokine levels.
[0090] 2.6 Detection of the absolute number and proportion of HSPCs in bone marrow of model animals
[0091] Mouse bone marrow cells were collected, dispersed in PBS, passed through a membrane, washed, counted, labeled with antibodies (lineage, Sca-1, CD117, CD34, CD135, etc.), incubated at 4°C for 30 min, resuspended in PBS, and prepared into a cell suspension for flow cytometry analysis.
[0092] III. Experimental Results
[0093] 3.1 Medicin can increase the activity of bone marrow cells in mice with immunosuppressive diseases.
[0094] Colony formation assays are an effective way to evaluate the effects of drugs on cell viability. Results showed that medroxypyr significantly increased the number of colonies on bone marrow mononuclear cells in immunosuppressive mice. Figure 2A It has a significant promoting effect on the activity of bone marrow cells.
[0095] 3.2 Medicin had no significant effect on organ indices in mice with immunosuppressive diseases.
[0096] Organ index results showed that after 15 days of intervention with thymol, there was no significant effect on the thymus index and spleen index in mice with immunosuppressive diseases. Figure 2B This indicates that medroxypyr does not affect its extramedullary hematopoietic capacity.
[0097] 3.3 Medisin can reverse the levels of hematopoietic cytokines and restore bone marrow hematopoietic homeostasis.
[0098] The proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow cells involve multiple cytokines, and changes in cytokine levels reflect alterations in hematopoietic capacity. Results from cytokine analysis in mouse serum and bone marrow showed that medroxypyr significantly increased serum IL-3 and M-CSF levels and decreased EPO levels. Figure 2C ); at the same time, it increases the levels of IL-34 and IL-15 in the bone marrow ( Figure 2D ).
[0099] 3.4 Medicin can increase the bone marrow hematopoietic capacity of mice with immunosuppressive diseases.
[0100] The proportion and absolute number of HSPCs in the bone marrow reflect changes in hematopoietic function. Flow cytometry results showed that intervention with medroxypyridine increased the proportion and absolute number of HSPCs in the bone marrow, especially LSK. -, HPCs, ST-HSCs, MPP and CLP ( Figure 2E This indicates that medroxypyr has a significant effect on improving bone marrow hematopoietic function.
[0101] in conclusion
[0102] Based on modern pharmacological research methods, this invention systematically investigated the pharmacological effects of medroxypyrin in treating immunosuppressive diseases, and clarified that medroxypyrin can significantly increase the number of white blood cells in the peripheral blood of mice with cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppressive diseases, while improving the number of platelets and basophils in the peripheral blood, and has a significant therapeutic effect on chemotherapy-induced immunosuppressive diseases.
[0103] Bone marrow is the direct source of mature blood cells. The number of bone marrow cell colonies and the proportion and absolute number of bone marrow HSPCs can effectively reflect the hematopoietic function of bone marrow. The spleen, as an extramedullary hematopoietic organ, also plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis. This invention found that santalin significantly improved the activity of bone marrow cells and the proportion of bone marrow HSPCs in mice with immunosuppressive diseases, but did not affect the spleen index, indicating that santalin mainly exerts its effect by regulating bone marrow hematopoiesis. This invention further used flow cytometry to clarify that santalin intervention significantly reversed the decrease in the proportion of ST-HSCs and MPP in mouse bone marrow and increased LSK. - The number of HPCs and CLPs. Among them, LSK... - HPCs, ST-HSCs, and MPPs are hematopoietic stem / progenitor cells with strong differentiation capabilities, indicating that Medicin can effectively improve the hematopoietic function of bone marrow hematopoietic stem / progenitor cells. On the other hand, CLPs are lymphoid progenitor cells that can further differentiate into immune cells such as T cells, B cells, and NK cells, playing a crucial role in the body's immune and inflammatory responses. In conclusion, Medicin has a significant ameliorative effect on immunosuppressive diseases.
[0104] Cytokines are one of the main pathways for intercellular signal transduction. Immunocytokines participate in the regulation of various immune cell biological functions and are key mechanisms for immune function regulation. Among them, IL-3, produced by T lymphocytes, can stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of cells involved in the immune response and enhance their function. M-CSF is a hematopoietic growth factor that regulates the survival, proliferation, differentiation, and function of mononuclear phagocytes. EPO has anti-inflammatory and stress-protective effects. IL-15 can enhance the proliferative activity of NK cells, promote the activation of lymphocytes and myeloid cell subsets, maintain immune cell homeostasis, and promote immune system reconstruction. IL-34 can promote the proliferation of Th17 cells. This invention found that erythritol can significantly increase the levels of IL-3 and M-CSF in the serum of mice with immunosuppressive diseases, decrease the level of EPO, and simultaneously increase the levels of IL-34 and IL-15 in the bone marrow. Therefore, it is indicated that erythritol mainly participates in the regulation of immune and inflammation-related biological processes, can improve immunosuppression and inflammatory responses, and promote the recovery of immunosuppressive diseases.
