Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular to the application of banana fruit extract in the preparation of anticoagulant or antithrombotic drugs. Background Technology

[0002] Garlic, ginkgo leaves, and natto are among the most studied natural anticoagulant components. Garlic contains allicin and other sulfides that reduce clotting factors (such as fibrinogen) in the blood and inhibit platelet aggregation, thus reducing thrombus formation and preventing atherosclerosis and hypertension. Ginkgo leaves contain flavonoids and terpene lactones that can inhibit thrombin activity, promote fibrinolysis, and improve microcirculation; their anticoagulant effect is considered comparable to some modern drugs (such as warfarin). Natto (fermented soybeans) contains nattokinase, which directly breaks down fibrin, reduces clotting factor levels (such as prothrombin and fibrinogen), and significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease; Japanese research suggests it may replace traditional anticoagulant drugs.

[0003] The advantage of natural ingredients is multi-target synergy, low risk of bleeding, and fewer side effects, making them suitable for long-term prevention (such as cardiovascular health). Banana (Musapientum) fruit extract can significantly inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and can be used for anti-inflammatory purposes, but there are currently no reports on the anticoagulant activity of banana fruit extract. Summary of the Invention

[0022] In one embodiment, the banana fruit extract contains flavonoids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, enolone, hydroxyanthraquinone, triterpenoids, diterpenoids, steroids, potassium, sodium, lupinone, selenium, anthraquinones, palmitic acid, β-sitosterol, amino acids, coumarins, and saponins.

[0023] In one implementation, the anticoagulant product inhibits platelet production or promotes platelet metabolism.

[0024] In one embodiment, the anticoagulant product inhibits platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid and collagen.

[0025] In one implementation, the anticoagulant product inhibits the formation of thromboxane A2 but has no effect on the formation of cAMP and cGMP.

[0026] In one implementation, the product includes a drug.

[0027] This invention provides the application of banana fruit extract in the preparation of antithrombotic drugs.

[0028] In one embodiment, the antithrombotic drug inhibits the formation of thromboxane A2.

[0029] In one implementation, the antithrombotic drug inhibits platelet production or promotes platelet metabolism.

[0030] This invention provides an anticoagulant drug, the active ingredient of which includes banana fruit extract; the unit dose of the banana fruit extract in the drug is a dilution of 1 / 1000-1 / 2000 times.

[0031] This invention involves diluting banana fruit extract to 1 / 1000, 1 / 1200, 1 / 1500, and 1 / 2000 times, and orally administering it to Wistar rats at a dose of 1 ml / kg daily for 14 consecutive days. Its anticoagulant activity was assessed by measuring prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), platelet count (PLT), and platelet aggregation reaction. Simultaneously, the levels of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) were measured to determine its mechanism of action. Results showed that banana fruit extract significantly prolonged PT and APTT at higher concentrations (p<0.01) and inhibited platelet aggregation. Its mechanism of action is primarily through inhibiting the production of thromboxane A2 (TXB2) (p<0.01), rather than through the cAMP or cGMP pathway. This invention has discovered that banana fruit extract has significant anticoagulant activity, and its mechanism of action is closely related to the inhibition of thromboxane A2 production, providing a new research direction for the development of natural anticoagulant drugs.

[0032] The banana fruit extract provided by this invention contains flavonoids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, hydroxyanthraquinones, triterpenoids, and other components.

[0055] 2.2 Anticoagulation test

[0056] Male Wistar rats were orally administered banana fruit extracts at doses of 1 / 1000, 1 / 1200, 1 / 1500, and 1 / 2000 of their original concentration at a dose of 1 ml / kg body weight daily. Male Wistar rats administered aspirin (10 mg / kg body weight) in the same manner served as the positive control group. The rats grew well during the experiment, and there were no significant differences in body weight, food intake, and water consumption between the experimental and control groups (see Table 2).

[0057] Table 2. Changes in body weight, food intake, and water consumption in Wistar rats after 14 days of continuous oral administration of banana fruit extract.

[0058]

[0059]

[0060] Note: The solvent treatment group received 1 ml / kg of purified water orally; 1 / 1000, 1 / 1200, 1 / 1500 and 1 / 2000 are the dilution factors of banana fruit extract, and the same applies to the table below; the data for each group are the results obtained from 10 experimental Wistar rats, and are expressed as mean ± SD.

[0061] As shown in Table 2, there was no statistically significant difference in the data obtained at the same time point between the banana fruit extract treatment group and the solvent treatment group.

[0062] After 14 days of feeding, the blood of the banana fruit extract treatment group was examined. The results showed that the values ​​of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), and mean corpuscular volume (MCV) were all within the normal range of the control group. However, the platelet count (PLT) decreased significantly with increasing concentration, indicating that the extract can inhibit platelet production or promote platelet metabolism (see Table 3).

[0064]

[0065] Note: The solvent treatment group received 1 ml / kg of purified water orally; data for each group were obtained from 10 experimental Wistar rats and are expressed as mean ± SD; compared with the data obtained from the solvent treatment group... a p<0.05, b p<0.01.

[0066] The prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were significantly prolonged with increasing extract concentration, indicating that it has anticoagulant activity (see Table 4).

[0068]

[0069] Note: The solvent treatment group received 1 ml / kg of purified water orally; data for each group were obtained from 10 experimental Wistar rats and are expressed as mean ± SD; compared with the data obtained from the solvent treatment group... a p<0.05, b p<0.01.

[0070] The banana fruit extract significantly inhibited arachidonic acid and collagen-induced platelet aggregation and had a significant inhibitory effect on TXB2 production, but had no significant effect on cAMP and cGMP production (see Tables 5 and 6). This indicates that its anticoagulant mechanism is mainly through the inhibition of thromboxane production, rather than through the cAMP or cGMP pathway.
