Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of topical drug synthesis technology, specifically, it relates to a topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic, progressive autoimmune disease characterized primarily by inflammation of the sacroiliac joints and spinal entheses. Its core pathological mechanism involves a cascade of inflammatory reactions mediated by excessive activation of Th17 cells, coupled with abnormal bone metabolism: the excessive secretion of inflammatory factors such as IL-17 triggers inflammation of the synovial membrane and soft tissue damage. Simultaneously, an imbalance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts leads to heterotopic ossification and spinal ankylosis, ultimately resulting in loss of joint function. Current clinical treatment primarily involves oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), immunosuppressants, and biologics. However, these treatments suffer from drawbacks such as gastrointestinal irritation, significant systemic toxicity, low local drug concentrations in the joints, and poor long-term adherence.
[0003] Topical preparations, due to their direct application to the lesion and avoidance of systemic adverse reactions, have become an important direction for the local treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). However, existing topical Chinese medicine preparations still face three major technical bottlenecks: First, they mostly employ traditional herbal extraction processes, leading to interference between different polar active ingredients, easy degradation of heat-sensitive components, and a lack of precise formulation design tailored to the pathological characteristics of AS, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve synergistic effects of anti-inflammation and osteogenic repair. Second, transdermal penetration enhancement methods are often limited, relying heavily on chemical penetration enhancers that damage the skin barrier, easily causing skin irritation. Furthermore, the drugs have short retention times on the skin surface, uncontrollable release, and cannot maintain long-term therapeutic concentrations. Third, the carrier design is disconnected from the drug characteristics. Conventional single carriers cannot simultaneously meet the loading and release requirements of multi-scale, transpolar active ingredients such as water-soluble polysaccharides, lipid-soluble terpenes, and alkaloids in Chinese medicine compound preparations. Moreover, there is a common contradiction between transdermal efficiency and skin comfort, which can easily lead to adverse reactions such as skin irritation and allergies with long-term use.
[0004] Therefore, developing a topical traditional Chinese medicine preparation that combines multi-target synergistic anti-inflammatory and osteogenic effects, high-efficiency transdermal absorption, comfortable skin feel, and long-lasting sustained release is of great clinical significance for improving the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention discloses a topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis. Using seven medicinal herbs—white peony root, artemisia annua, turmeric, coptis chinensis, astragalus membranaceus, salvia miltiorrhiza, and drynaria fortunei—as the base material, a differentiated extraction process is employed to enrich transpolar active ingredients, forming a bidirectional therapeutic basis that inhibits Th17 differentiation and IL-17 secretion while promoting osteoblast differentiation. By introducing a compound system of calcined oyster shell powder and multiple oils, the alkaline properties of oyster shell powder neutralize acidic metabolites from lesions and optimize transdermal penetration. Its hygroscopic and exothermic properties, combined with oleic acid, jojoba oil, white oil, and oleic acid oleyl alcohol esters, construct transdermal channels and a moisturizing sealing membrane. Furthermore, the fatty acid salts generated by the weak saponification reaction of alkaline inorganic salts and free fatty acids synergistically solidify the membrane layer, enhancing the stability of the skin barrier. Further, calcium hydrogen phosphate is introduced, whose calcium ions form ionic coordination bonds with sodium alginate carboxyl groups and anchor to the polysaccharide gel framework, constituting an inorganic-organic composite drug-carrying matrix. The micropores of calcium hydrogen phosphate and the mesopores of oyster shell powder form a multi-level pore system to achieve differentiated drug loading. The two work together to form a warm but not dry, moist but not stuffy drug delivery microenvironment, promoting stratum corneum hydration and blood circulation, maintaining sweat evaporation and gas exchange, reducing the risk of stuffiness and allergies, and achieving a continuous drug delivery effect of integrated drug efficacy, transdermal enhancement and sustained release regulation.

[0010] The beneficial effects achieved by this invention are as follows: The topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in this application uses seven medicinal herbs with suitable efficacy—white peony root, artemisia annua, turmeric, coptis chinensis, astragalus membranaceus, salvia miltiorrhiza, and drynaria fortunei—as the base material. A differentiated extraction process combining water extraction, alcohol extraction, and compound solvent extraction is employed to directionally separate and enrich active ingredients with different polarity ranges, followed by low-temperature precipitation to form a complex pharmacodynamic component. Among these, paeoniflorin, curcumin, and berberine synergistically inhibit Th17 differentiation and IL-17 secretion, suppressing the cascade amplification of synovial inflammation; drynaria fortunei naringin and tanshinone promote osteoblast differentiation and inhibit osteoclast activation, forming a dual therapeutic basis for inflammation control and bone repair.
[0011] The topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in this application introduces a synergistic transdermal channel constructed from calcined oyster shell powder and a multi-oil compound system. Calcined oyster shell powder is alkaline, which can neutralize acidic metabolites accumulated in inflammatory lesions, optimizing the dissociation state of drug molecules to enhance transdermal penetration. Its hygroscopic and exothermic properties create a micro-warming effect on the epidermis, promoting subcutaneous blood circulation. Based on this microenvironment, oleic acid reconstructs the lipid bilayer structure of the stratum corneum and activates epidermal cells. Jojoba oil, with its highly homologous structure to human sebum, carries the active ingredients deep into the skin. White oil and oleyl alcohol act as a flexible matrix to prolong the skin's retention time. Oleic acid and oleyl alcohol esterify to form oleic acid-oleyl alcohol ester, forming a moisturizing and sealing film on the skin surface, delaying drug release. In addition, the alkaline inorganic salts dissolved in calcined oyster shell powder can undergo a weak saponification reaction with trace amounts of free fatty acids in the system. The resulting fatty acid salts and oleic acid oleyl alcohol esters work together to form a dense and stable composite film, which enhances the uniformity and durability of the skin barrier, giving oyster shell powder multiple functions such as transdermal absorption, temperature regulation, and film curing.
[0012] The topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in this application introduces dicalcium phosphate as the basic material for epidermal drug loading. The calcium ions in dicalcium phosphate can form ionic coordination bonds with the carboxyl groups of sodium alginate in the gel system, firmly anchoring dicalcium phosphate particles within the polysaccharide gel framework, forming an inorganic and organic composite drug-loaded matrix. The micropores of dicalcium phosphate and the mesopores of calcined oyster shell powder constitute a multi-level pore system, each adapting to drug molecules of different sizes to achieve differentiated loading. Simultaneously, the hygroscopic and exothermic properties of calcined oyster shell powder are efficiently coupled with the breathability of the dicalcium phosphate micropores, creating a warm yet not dry, moist yet not stuffy microenvironment at the drug delivery site. This promotes stratum corneum hydration and blood circulation to facilitate rapid drug efficacy, while maintaining normal sweat evaporation and gas exchange through the pores, reducing skin dampness and the risk of allergies, achieving a continuous drug delivery effect of integrated efficacy, transdermal enhancement, and sustained-release regulation.

[0030] Comparative example: The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 2 is that no compound Chinese medicine powder was added; the rest of the parts are the same as Example 2. The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 2 is that no gel transdermal solution was added; the rest of the parts are the same as Example 2. The difference between Comparative Example 3 and Example 2 is that no traditional Chinese medicine compound powder and transdermal gel were added; the rest of the parts are the same as Example 2.
[0031] The following performance tests were conducted on the prepared topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis: Figure 2 The pH values of the formulations prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are compared. The pH values of the examples were stable in the range of 6.15–6.45, which is within the physiologically tolerable pH range of human skin (4.5–6.5). This indicates that the citrate-triethanolamine buffer system can effectively regulate the pH of the system, maintaining the stability of the formulation while reducing the risk of skin irritation caused by abnormal pH. Figure 3 The results show the relative standard deviation (RSD) of viscosity and content uniformity of the formulations prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3. The viscosity of the Examples is 25000–32000 mPa·s, which is higher than that of the Comparative Examples, thus prolonging the retention time of the drug on the skin surface. At the same time, the content uniformity RSD of the three indicative components, paeoniflorin, curcumin, and berberine hydrochloride, in the Examples is <3%, which is lower than the 5% threshold that is conventionally acceptable for topical semi-solid preparations, indicating that the drugs are uniformly dispersed and of stable quality in the inorganic-organic composite gel matrix. Figure 4The results show the microbial limit comparison between the preparations obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3. In the examples, the total aerobic bacteria count was <500 cfu / g, and the total mold and yeast count was <100 cfu / g, meeting the microbial limit requirements for topical administration preparations in the 2025 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. This indicates that the antibacterial system of the present invention is effective and its microbial safety is qualified. Figure 5 The results show the comparison of the 24-hour cumulative transdermal absorption and steady-state transdermal absorption rate of the formulations prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3. The 24-hour cumulative transdermal absorption and steady-state transdermal absorption rate of Examples 1-3 are higher than those of the comparative examples, indicating that the calcined oyster shell powder-multi-oil compound system can achieve synergistic transdermal enhancement by improving the permeability of the stratum corneum and increasing drug solubility. Figure 6 The results compare the cumulative release rate and film-forming time of the formulations prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 over 48 hours. The cumulative release rate of Example 2 over 48 hours was 69.4%, with no obvious burst release and the drug release was gradual and lasted for more than 48 hours. At the same time, the film-forming time of Example 2 was 3-4 minutes, which was shorter than that of the comparative examples (6-8 minutes), and the film formation was rapid and uniform, which is beneficial to prolonging the drug action time. Figure 7 The results show a comparison of the in vitro pharmacological activities of the formulations prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3. Example 2 showed a 64.3% inhibition rate of IL-17 secretion, significantly better than the comparative examples; it increased osteoblast ALP activity to 61.2% and inhibited osteoclast differentiation by 70.4%. These results indicate that the formulations of this invention possess both significant anti-inflammatory activity and bidirectional osteogenic-osteoclast regulatory effects in vitro. Figure 8 The results are shown in the infrared thermal imaging test after the preparation obtained in Example 2 was applied to the human epidermis. The skin surface temperature reached 39.6°C 2 hours after application, indicating that the hygroscopic and exothermic properties of calcined oyster shell powder can create a mild warming effect on the local epidermis, which can promote local blood circulation, assist in transdermal drug absorption, and provide a mild and comfortable skin feel.
[0032] To further verify the efficacy of the topical traditional Chinese medicine formulations for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in the examples and comparative examples, the following safety tests were conducted. Table 1 shows the test results using rats as the safety verification subjects:
[0033] Table 1 shows the results of selecting healthy SPF-grade SD rats as experimental subjects. The formulations of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were applied to the shaved areas on the backs of the rats, and acute skin irritation tests, skin sensitization tests, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) measurements, and a long-term skin toxicity test lasting 90 days were conducted. In the acute skin irritation and sensitization tests, erythema, edema, irritation, and sensitization scores were observed and recorded after administration. TEWL was measured at 0 h before administration and 24 h after administration. In the long-term toxicity test, the rats were administered the drug daily, and their general condition was observed for 90 days. Hematological and serum biochemical indicators were measured at the end of the test. The results showed that no erythema or edema appeared on the skin of rats in Examples 1-3 groups, with irritation scores of 1-2 and sensitization scores of 0, indicating good skin barrier function. TEWL values increased from 18.5-18.7 g / (m²) before administration. 2 The concentration of ·h) decreased to 14.9-15.7 g / (m 2 The results (·h) indicate that the formulation can protect and repair the skin barrier. After 90 days of continuous application, the rats' diet, activity, and weight remained normal, and their blood and biochemical indicators were all within the normal range, with no abnormalities. Comparative examples 1-3 showed varying degrees of erythema, edema, sensitization reactions, and skin barrier damage. In summary, the topical Chinese medicine formulation prepared in these examples is non-irritating and non-sensitizing to the skin, can protect the skin barrier, and is safe and gentle for long-term topical use, meeting the safety requirements for clinical topical use.
[0034] Based on the above test results, the following clinical trials were conducted; Table 2 shows the experimental results of the topical Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in Example 2:
[0035] Table 2 shows the clinical observation results of the topical traditional Chinese medicine formula for treating ankylosing spondylitis prepared in Example 2. This study selected 10 patients with ankylosing spondylitis, who applied the topical traditional Chinese medicine formula of Example 2 to the affected area daily and were followed up for 12 months. The results showed that after one month of use, patients experienced significant relief of local pain and a shorter morning stiffness duration; after 2-4 months of use, pain, stiffness, and limited mobility symptoms were significantly improved; and after 8-12 months of use, joint function was basically restored, and the inflammatory state was under long-term control. No redness, swelling, irritation, or allergic reactions occurred at the application site in any patient, indicating good skin tolerance and long-term safety and stability. In summary, the preparation of this invention can significantly improve the pain, stiffness, and limited mobility symptoms of patients with ankylosing spondylitis, improve their quality of life, and has good clinical application value.
[0036] Figure 8The results of the application are for patient 2. It should be noted that this study is a small-sample preliminary observational trial and no control group was set up. Note: Clinical efficacy is mainly evaluated by the improvement of patients' subjective pain, morning stiffness duration, joint range of motion, and inflammation-related symptoms.
