Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medicine, and in particular to pharmaceutical compositions and their use in the prevention and / or treatment of diseases such as ischemic disease and / or ischemia-reperfusion injury. [Background technology]

[0002] Blood vessels supply blood to tissues and organs throughout the body. Insufficient blood supply can lead to disease in tissues and organs, particularly those with a high demand for oxygenated blood, such as the heart and brain. Furthermore, with the establishment, widespread adoption, and application of techniques such as microcirculatory resuscitation during shock, relief of coronary artery spasm, arterial bypass surgery, thrombolytic therapy, percutaneous coronary intervention, cardiac surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass, cardiopulmonary and cerebral resuscitation, amputated limb reattachment, and organ transplantation, many tissues and organs can be reperfused after ischemia. However, reperfusion after ischemia may not restore tissue or organ function, and may even worsen tissue or organ dysfunction and structural damage. This phenomenon, in which tissue damage worsens after blood flow is restored following ischemia, ultimately resulting in irreversible damage, is called ischemia-reperfusion injury.

[0003] A Chinese application with application number CN2011102229806 discloses a pharmaceutical composition containing the compounds salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1, which has a therapeutic effect on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, research into the combined use of the two compounds is still insufficient, and further research into formulation combinations is needed to provide a pharmaceutical composition that has a therapeutic effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury in various tissues and organs.

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an enzyme necessary for the conversion of sugars into cellular energy and is present in many organs and tissues throughout the body, such as the liver, heart, pancreas, kidneys, skeletal muscle, lymphatic tissue, and blood cells. Lactate dehydrogenase is involved in the final step of glycolysis, in which pyruvate is converted to lactate. In normal tissues, glycolysis is usually only used when oxygen supply is insufficient, but cancer tissues rely heavily on aerobic glycolysis and are not affected by oxygen supply levels. Therefore, LDH inhibitors can be used to treat pathologies in which the metabolic transition from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis occurs, such as, but not limited to, the treatment of patients with cancer, fibrosis, or other diseases in which the metabolic transition from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis occurs. At the same time, lactate dehydrogenase is an enzyme that converts glyoxylate to oxalate in the glycine metabolic pathway of mitochondria / peroxisomes in the liver and pancreas, and inhibition of LDH can be used to treat chronic kidney diseases, such as hyperoxaluria. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can reduce the LDH concentration in blood and / or inhibit LDH activity, and is therefore useful as an LDH inhibitor.

Opacifying agents may be included, and in such compositions, the release of the active ingredient may be delayed in a certain part of the digestive tract. Examples of encapsulating materials that can be used include polymeric materials and wax-based materials. If necessary, the active ingredient may also be formed into a microencapsulated form with one or more of the above-mentioned excipients.

[0085] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, or tinctures. In addition to the active ingredient, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, compatibilizers and emulsifiers, such as ethanol, isopropanol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butanediol, dimethylformamide, and oils, particularly cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil, or mixtures of these substances.

[0086] Besides these inert diluents, the composition may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying agents, suspending agents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, and perfumes.

[0087] In addition to the active ingredient, suspensions may contain a suspending agent such as, for example, ethoxylated isooctadecanol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol or sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum methoxy or agar, or mixtures of these substances.

[0088] Compositions for parenteral injection include physiologically acceptable sterile aqueous or anhydrous solutions, dispersions, suspensions and emulsions, and sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions.

[0089] Dosage forms of the active ingredient of the present invention for topical administration include ointments, powders, patches, sprays and inhalants. The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a physiologically acceptable carrier and any preservatives, buffers, or propellants, as required.

[0090] In the pharmaceutical composition, active ingredient combination, or pharmaceutical kit of the present invention, the therapeutically effective amount of the active ingredient, calculated as the total amount of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1, typically ranges from about 1-2000 mg / day, about 10-about 1000 mg / day, about 10-about 500 mg / day, about 10-250 mg / day, about 10-about 100 mg / day, or about 10-about 80 mg / day. A therapeutically effective amount is administered in one or more doses. However, the specific dose of the active ingredient of the present invention for any particular patient will, of course, depend on many factors, such as the patient's age, sex, weight, general health, diet, individual response, administration time, severity of the disease being treated, dosage form, dosage form, and concomitant medications. The therapeutically effective amount for a given situation can be determined by routine experimentation and is within the skill and judgment of a clinical physician or doctor. In any case, the active ingredient is administered in multiple doses to deliver a therapeutically effective amount based on the patient's individual condition.

[0091] The main advantages of the present invention are as follows: 1. Compared with existing technologies, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention has a better active ingredient ratio and has better therapeutic effects in the treatment of ischemic diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., excellent effects on reducing infarct size and improving tissue and organ functions). 2. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention has therapeutic effects on reperfusion injury not only in the heart but also in various other organs, including the brain, liver, lungs, and kidneys, and can be widely applied to the treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury in many tissues and organs. 3. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention further has the effect of inhibiting lactate dehydrogenase, and can rapidly reduce the content and / or activity of lactate dehydrogenase in the blood. As a lactate dehydrogenase inhibitor, it can be used to treat diseases associated with lactate dehydrogenase.

[0092] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific examples. It is understood that these examples are only used to explain the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. In the following examples, experimental methods for which specific conditions are not described were generally carried out under conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. Unless otherwise specified, percentages and parts are by weight.

[0093] 1. Reagents and Materials 1.1 Animals A total of 134 clean-grade male Wistar rats weighing 220±10 g were used, of which 56 were used to study the protective effects of different drug combination ratios on rat hearts affected by myocardial infarction, 16 to study the protective effects of drug combinations on hearts affected by ischemia-reperfusion, 32 to study the protective effects of drug combinations on kidneys affected by ischemia-reperfusion, and 30 to evaluate the preventive and therapeutic effects of drug combinations on pulmonary embolism and its complications.

[0094] Ninety-six clean-grade male SD rats weighing 220±10 g were used, of which 30 were used to study the protective effect of the drug combination on ischemic cerebral infarction, 50 were used to study the protective effect of the drug combination on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, and 16 were used to study the protective effect of the drug combination on the liver from ischemia-reperfusion.

[0095] Wistar and SD rats were provided by the Shanghai Experimental Animal Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and were housed in an SPF-grade animal room at the Experimental Animal Center, Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Sciences, at a constant temperature of 22 ± 2°C with 12 h light and standard diet and water available ad libitum. Administration route: Unless otherwise specified, the administration route in the examples is tail vein injection. [Table 1] [Table 2]

[0096] 1.4 Common Experimental Methods Blood Separation and Processing The rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium (40 mg / kg) and fixed supine on a board. The abdomen was incised along the midline with scissors, the contents of the abdominal cavity were removed, and the intraperitoneal fluid was wiped with a dry cotton ball. The abdominal aorta was then spun with a 5 mL syringe and blood was collected into a 2 mL Eppendorf tube. After allowing the blood to stand on ice for 0.5 hours, it was centrifuged at 4°C and 8000 r / min for 10 minutes. The supernatant was removed, and the serum was divided into 0.5 mL Eppendorf tubes and stored in a -80°C refrigerator for further use.

[0097] TTC staining Dissolve 0.5 g of TTC powder in 100 ml of PBS, store away from light, and prepare immediately before use. Fresh tissue was cut into multiple cross-sections, placed in a box with a lid, and the TTC solution was added. Protected from light, the box was placed in a liquid container and incubated in a 37°C incubator for 20 min, turning the tissue over several times to ensure uniform contact with the staining solution. After 20 min, the tissue was removed and photographed.

[0098] Sample fixation, dehydration, paraffin embedding, and sectioning A 10% paraformaldehyde fixative was prepared by dissolving 100 ml of formaldehyde, 4 g of sodium dihydrogen phosphate, and 6.5 g of disodium hydrogen phosphate in 900 ml of distilled water. After 72 h of fixation in paraformaldehyde, the tissue was washed with tap water for 2 h and then placed in a dehydrator using the automated program. The tissue was then dehydrated in 75% ethanol for 1.5 h, 95% ethanol for 1.5 h, 100% ethanol for 1.5 h, xylene for 1.5 h, and paraffin for 1.5 h. The paraffin embedding device was turned on 2 h before the fixation and the temperature was controlled at 60°C. After the paraffin had melted, the dehydrated tissue was embedded in paraffin and poured into an embedding box. Using heated tweezers, the tissue block was placed in an embedding frame and carefully transferred to a cold table. Once the paraffin solidified, the block was removed and sections were prepared. Before sectioning, the paraffin block was frozen in a refrigerator. After cooling, it was serially cut into 5 μm-thick paraffin sections using a sectioning device. The sections were then stretched in 38°C warm water using a stretching device, mounted on polylysine-coated slides, and air-dried for subsequent histopathological staining.

[0099] HE staining The tissue sections were dried in a 65°C oven for 60 minutes, then quickly transferred to xylene for 15 minutes to remove the paraffin. They were then immersed in 100%, 95%, and 75% ethanol for 5 minutes, washed in running water for 5 minutes, then placed in hematoxylin staining solution for 15 minutes, washed in water for 5 minutes, and then placed in 1% hydrochloric acid ethanol differentiation solution (prepared by adding 3 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid to 300 mL of 75% ethanol and stirring evenly) for 3 seconds. Then, they were rinsed in running water for 5 minutes to turn blue. They were then placed in 1% eosin solution for 10 minutes. After the excess eosin solution was quickly drained, the sections were transferred to 75% ethanol for 4 minutes, then 95% ethanol for 4 minutes, 100% ethanol for 5 minutes, and cleared in xylene for 15 minutes. Finally, the sections were sealed in xylene neutral balsam. After the balsam was air-dried, an overall view was taken with a stereomicroscope and local magnifications were taken with a BX51 microscope.

[0100] PAS staining Dry the tissue sections in a 65°C oven for 60 minutes, then quickly place them in xylene for 15 minutes to remove the paraffin. Then, soak them in 95%, 70%, and 30% ethanol for 5 minutes, followed by distilled water for 2 minutes. Apply the prepared reagent-1 application staining solution to the slide sample, covering the entire sample. Carefully place the slide flat on a staining holder and incubate at room temperature, away from light, for 8-15 minutes. Remove the stained slide and gently rinse it under running tap water for 3-5 minutes. Before the slide is completely dry, apply a drop of reagent-2 application solution to the slide sample and blow the staining solution evenly with a blower to cover the entire sample. Incubate at room temperature for another 8-15 minutes. After incubation, remove the stained slide and gently rinse it under running tap water for 30-60 seconds, then air dry. After staining with Reagent 3 secondary staining solution for 20-30 seconds, rinse with running water, dry, and then seal with sealant. Once the sealant has air-dried, take a general view with a stereomicroscope and a local enlarged view with a BX51 microscope.

[0101] Detection of biochemical indicators LDH was detected in rat serum using a fully automated biochemical analyzer (JCA-BM6010 / C, Sysmex Medical Electronics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.) according to the lactate dehydrogenase assay kit (lactate substrate method, Sysmex Biotechnology (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., lot number: R8004).

[0102] Hemodynamic detection After anesthetizing the rats with an intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg / kg of pentobarbital sodium anesthetic, a Millar catheter was inserted into the right common carotid artery, and hemodynamic indices such as carotid artery pressure, left ventricular peak systolic velocity, left ventricular peak diastolic velocity, and left ventricular peripheral diastolic pressure were recorded using a Powerlab8 / 30 physiological recording device (ML870, ADINSTRUMENTS).

[0103] Calculation of left and right lung index After weighing the rats, anesthetize them with 30 mg / kg of zoletil intraperitoneally, and then separate the left and right lungs and weigh them. The left and right lung indices were calculated from the ratio of the left lung to the right lung and the right lung to the body weight, respectively.

[0104] Quantification of lung interstitial area Quantitative analysis was performed on hematoxylin-eosin stained lung tissue. The lung parenchyma, including trachea, bronchi, and alveoli, was removed from each sample. The remaining purple area represents the lung interstitium. Each tissue sample was photographed at the same magnification and the lung interstitial area was quantified.

[0105] Immunohistochemical study of neutrophil infiltration Paraffin-embedded tissues were dried at 65°C for 45-50 min, then washed in xylene for 15 min, absolute ethanol for 5 min, 95% ethanol for 5 min, 75% ethanol for 3 min, and running water for 1 min to remove paraffin to the aqueous phase. Microwave-fixed sections were then incubated in citric acid fixative for 30 min in 10% goat serum at 37°C, incubated overnight with CD44 antibody at 4°C, incubated with secondary antibody at 37°C for 1 hour, treated with DAB solution for 40 s, stained with hematoxylin for 15 min, differentiated with 1% HCl ethanol for 5 s, cleared with xylene, and sealed with neutral balsam. The area of ​​positive cells and optical density of each sample were quantified using Image Pro Plus software, and the average optical density was calculated from the ratio of optical density to the area of ​​positive cells.

[0106] Behavioral detection of animals Two days before surgery and one day after surgery, Longa scoring, NSS scoring and EBST detection are performed on all experimental animals. a. Longa scoring method: 0 points: normal, no nerve function damage; 1 point: the left front leg cannot be fully extended, mild nerve function damage; 2 points: the rat turns to the left (hemiplegic side) when running, moderate nerve function damage; 3 points: the rat's body leans to the left (hemiplegic side) when running, severe nerve function damage; 4 points: the rat cannot run spontaneously, loss of consciousness. b.NSS scoring system: 0 points: normal neurological function; 1 point: mild neurological impairment (left forelimb flexed when tail is lifted); 2 points: moderate neurological impairment (turns to the left when running); 3 points: moderate neurological impairment (leans to the left); 4 points: no running, loss of consciousness; 5 points: death related to ischemia. c. Elevated Body Swing Test: When measuring, first lift the base of the rat's tail with your hand so that it is about 5 cm vertically from the plane of the rat's head. At this time, the rat's head will rotate to the left or right, and the counting standard will be when the angle of unilateral rotation exceeds 100. The direction and angle of rotation will be recorded. After each test, the rat will be allowed to rest for 1 minute, and the next test will be conducted. This will be repeated 20 times, and the total direction and number of times will be recorded.

[0107] Data statistical methods Data analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 6.0 (GraphPad Software, LA Jolla, CA, USA). All quantitative data were expressed as mean ± standard curves. Equality of variance was confirmed between means by one-way ANOVA. When n values ​​were consistent, comparisons were performed using Tukey's test. When n values ​​were inconsistent, comparisons were performed using the Bonferroni test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0108] two. Animal experiments Example 1 1.1 Construction of myocardial infarction model Pentobarbital sodium (40 mg / kg) was injected intraperitoneally, and the rat was secured to a surgical board. The fur covering the chest was trimmed. A pen-type intravenous catheter was inserted into the trachea and connected to a ventilator. After disinfection with iodine tincture, the skin was incised between the third and fourth ribs on the left side of the chest, and the muscle was bluntly dissected. The gap between the third and fourth ribs was opened and secured to expose the top of the heart. The pericardium was then incised, and the left coronary vein was marked with a 5-0 suture needle using a needle holder. The suture was threaded through the tip of the left atrial appendage, the pulmonary artery cone, and 1 mm from the atrial appendage border. After the coronary artery was ligated, the myocardial tissue immediately turned from a clean red to a deep blue. In sham-operated animals, the remaining surgical procedures were identical except that the left anterior descending coronary artery was not ligated.

[0109] 1.2 Animal grouping and administration mode Fifty-six rats were randomly divided into seven groups of eight rats each: a sham-operated group, an ischemic model group, and a combined salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 group (prepared at 5:4, 5:3, 5:2, 5:1, and 2:5 ratios, respectively). Administration was double-blind; i.e., the surgeon was not involved in administration, and the statistical personnel were blinded to the group assignments. Salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 were mixed at 5:4, 5:3, 5:2, 5:1, and 2:5 ratios, respectively, and after homogenization, the mixtures were randomly numbered, dissolved, and filtered through a micropore filter for use. The sham-operated and myocardial infarction model groups received an equal volume of saline based on body weight. Immediately after surgery, rats received one 15 mg / kg dose via tail vein injection, followed by another 24 hours later. Blood was then collected from the abdominal aorta, and the hearts were harvested for histological examination.

[0110] 1.3 Experimental results and analysis 1.3.1 SalB / Rg1 reduces cardiac infarct size As shown in Figure 1, there was no infarct area in the sham operation group (0%). Compared with the ischemic model group, the infarct area was reduced by 23.4% in the 2:5 group, 15.3% in the 5:4 group, 35.2% in the 5:3 group (P<0.01), 33.2% in the 5:2 group (P<0.01), and 25.1% in the 5:1 group. * indicates that ***P<0.001 compared to the sham operation group. # for the ischemic model group, # P<0.05. The 5:3 and 5:2 groups showed a clear reduction in infarct size compared with the 2:5 group, with the infarct size reduced by 1.50 times (5:3) and 1.42 times (5:2), respectively, compared with the 2:5 group.

[0111] 1.3.2 SalB / Rg1-induced decrease in blood LDH content The results for blood LDH levels are shown in Figure 2. Compared with the ischemic model group, LDH levels were reduced by 19.7% in the 2:5 group, 7.5% in the 5:4 group, 23.0% in the 5:3 group, 37.9% in the 5:2 group, and 13.7% in the 5:1 group. * indicates *P<0.05 compared to the sham-operated group. LDH levels were reduced 1.9-fold in the 5:2 group compared to the 2:5 group.

[0112] 1.3.3 Improvement of cardiac structure by SalB / Rg1 To further evaluate the protective effect of SalB / Rg1 on cardiac tissue structure, we analyzed the cardiac structures of the infarcted (top), peri-infarct (middle), and distal-infarct (bottom) regions (Figure 3). In the ischemic model group, the infarcted region showed severe structural destruction, with massive inflammatory cell infiltration, manifested as cardiomyocyte edema, necrosis, and loss of nuclei, and palisaded myofibers. In the peri-infarct region, inflammatory cell infiltration was evident, and myofibers became elongated and wavy. Compared with the ischemic model group, SalB / Rg1 treatment improved the above damage to varying degrees in both the infarcted and peri-infarct regions. The 5:2 group showed the most significant improvement in myocardial tissue structure, with a significant reduction in inflammatory cell infiltration, reduced cardiomyocyte edema and necrosis, reduced loss of nuclei, and more regular myofiber arrangement in the infarcted region. In the peri-infarct region, inflammatory cell infiltration was reduced and myofiber arrangement became more regular. The cell arrangement in the distal infarct region of each group of animals was sequential, compact, and regular, with no obvious difference.

[0113] The above results showed that compared with the ischemia model group, all combined administrations of SalB / Rg1 had the effect of reducing infarct size, and surprisingly, compared with the optimal SalB / Rg1 combination ratio (2:5) published in existing technology, administration of SalB / Rg1 at 5:3 and 5:2 in the present invention resulted in a smaller infarct size in rat hearts and better therapeutic effects in reducing blood LDH content and improving cardiac structure.

[0114] Example 2 The combination of SalB / Rg1 at 5:2 and the optimal combination of SalB / Rg1 at 2:5, which was published in existing technology, were further compared in a myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model.

[0115] 2.1 Construction of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model Pentobarbital sodium (40 mg / kg) was injected intraperitoneally, and the rat was secured to a surgical board. The hair covering the chest was trimmed. A pen-type intravenous catheter was inserted into the trachea and connected to a ventilator. After disinfection with iodine tincture, the skin was incised between the third and fourth ribs on the left side of the chest, and the muscle was bluntly dissected. The gap between the third and fourth ribs was opened and secured to expose the top of the heart. The pericardium was then incised. A 5-0 suture needle was inserted with a needle holder to mark the left coronary vein, and a suture was threaded through the tip of the left atrial appendage, the pulmonary artery cone, and 1 mm from the atrial appendage border, and ligated. A 2-0 suture was inserted and tied at the junction of the two sutures. After ligation of the coronary artery, the myocardial tissue immediately changed from a bright red to a deep blue. After 40 minutes of myocardial ischemia, the suture was cut, the 2-0 suture was removed, and myocardial ischemia reperfusion was performed. 1 hour later, each parameter was evaluated. In the sham-operated animals, the remaining surgical procedures were completely the same except that the left anterior descending coronary artery was not ligated.

[0116] 2.2 Animal grouping and administration mode Sixteen rats weighing approximately 220g were randomly divided into two groups of eight rats each, one receiving a combination of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 (prepared in a 5:2 and 2:5 ratio). After 40 minutes of myocardial ischemia, the rats were reperfused, and the drug was administered via tail vein injection at 15 mg / kg simultaneously with reperfusion. One hour after reperfusion, hemodynamics was monitored, and the hearts were harvested for cardiac histology.

[0117] 2.3 Experimental results In a myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model, experimental results are shown in Figure 4. (A) Representative image of TTC staining of infarct area, (B) quantification of infarct area, and (C) Representative image of HE staining. Compared with SalB / Rg1(2:5), SalB / Rg1(5:2) reduced the infarct area of ​​rat hearts by 15.03%. To further evaluate the protective effect of SalB / Rg1 on cardiac tissue structure following ischemia-reperfusion injury, cardiac structures were analyzed in the infarct zone (top), peri-infarct zone (middle), and distal infarct zone (bottom) of the heart (Figure C). Compared with SalB / Rg1(2:5), SalB / Rg1(5:2) significantly suppressed inflammatory cell infiltration, cardiomyocyte necrosis, and cell nucleus loss in the infarct and peri-infarct zones. The cell arrangement in the distal infarct region of each group of animals was sequential, compact, and regular, with no obvious difference.

[0118] Figures 5 and 6 show the hemodynamic results. Compared with SalB / Rg1(2:5), SalB / Rg1(5:2) increased the maximum diastolic velocity by 18.2% (P<0.05) and the maximum systolic velocity by 11.6%, indicating that SalB / Rg1(5:2) is more effective at improving cardiac function than SalB / Rg1(2:5). Figure 6 shows that there were no significant differences in peripheral diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure, indicating that SalB / Rg1(5:2) has no adverse effect on blood pressure regulation compared to SalB / Rg1(2:5).

[0119] Example 3 SalB / Rg1 (5:2) and SalB / Rg1 (2:5) were further compared in a renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model.

[0120] 3.1 Establishment of a renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model Pentobarbital sodium (40 mg / kg) was injected intraperitoneally, and the rat was secured to a surgical board. The hair covering the chest was trimmed and disinfected with iodine tincture. A 2.5 cm incision was made in the middle of the abdomen, the intestines were separated to expose the left kidney, and the perirenal fat was separated. The left renal pedicle (including the renal artery, renal vein, and kidney) was clamped with an arterial clamp to induce renal ischemia for 40 minutes. The same procedure was performed on the right and left kidneys. After 40 minutes, the arterial clamps on both kidneys were removed. 24 hours later, renal ischemia-reperfusion injury occurred, and the muscles and skin were sutured. Sham-operated animals underwent the same surgical procedure, except that the renal pedicles were not clamped.

[0121] 3.2 Animal grouping and administration mode Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into four groups of eight rats each: a sham-operated group, an ischemia-reperfusion model group, and a combined treatment group of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 (prepared at a 5:2 and 2:5 ratio). The sham-operated and renal ischemia-reperfusion model groups were administered saline at an equal volume based on body weight. After 40 minutes of renal ischemia, rats were reperfused. Simultaneously with reperfusion, the rats were administered a single 15 mg / kg dose via tail vein injection, followed by another dose 24 hours later. The kidneys were then harvested for histological examination.

[0122] 3.3 Experimental results To evaluate the protective effect of SalB / Rg1 on renal tissue structure following ischemia-reperfusion injury, we analyzed the structure of the renal cortex (Figure 7). In the ischemia-reperfusion model, the renal cortex was infiltrated with large numbers of inflammatory cells, exuded large amounts of blood cells, and had increased intercellular spaces. Compared with the ischemia-reperfusion model, SalB / Rg1 improved all of these injuries to varying degrees. The 5:2 group showed the most obvious improvement in renal tissue structure, with a significant reduction in renal cortical inflammatory cell infiltration and exudation of blood cells, as well as a reduction in intercellular spaces.

[0123] To evaluate the effect of SalB / Rg1 on glycogen accumulation in renal tissue following ischemia-reperfusion injury, we analyzed glycogen accumulation in the renal cortex (Figure 8). In the ischemia-reperfusion model, glycogen accumulation was concentrated in the mesenchymal membrane, glomerular mesangial cell proliferation, thickened basement membrane, and cell nuclei were lost. Compared with the ischemia-reperfusion model, SalB / Rg1 improved all of these injuries to varying degrees. Compared with the 2:5 group, the 5:2 group significantly reduced glycogen accumulation in rat kidneys, improved glomerular mesangial cell proliferation, and reduced cell nuclei.

[0124] Example 4 Preventive and therapeutic effects of a combination of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 (5:2) on pulmonary embolism and its complications in rats 4.1 Experimental animals and model construction Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups (10 rats each): a normal control group, a model control group, and a salvianolic acid B / Rg1 group (20 mg / kg). The normal control group received saline at a dose of 5 ml / kg on days 0, 7, 14, and 21. The other two groups received polystyrene microspheres at the corresponding time points. The polystyrene microspheres had a concentration of 200,000 particles / ml and a diameter of 45 μm. The Wistar rats were injected with polystyrene microspheres via the tail vein at a dose of 1 million particles / kg (5 ml / kg) on ​​days 0, 7, 14, and 21, respectively.

[0125] The two groups administered polystyrene microspheres were as follows: one group was injected with saline every day from day 7, which served as the model control group, for 28 consecutive days; the other group was injected with salvianolic acid B / Rg1 (5:2 ratio) at a dose of 20 mg / kg every day from day 7, for 28 consecutive days. All animals were harvested on day 35, and histological examination of the heart and lungs was performed.

[0126] 4.2 Experimental results 4.2.1 Amelioration of pulmonary embolism induced by microspheres of salvianolic acid B / Rg1 (5:2) combination The combined use of salvianolic acid B / Rg1 can ameliorate microsphere-induced pulmonary embolism. As shown in Figure 9, compared with the model group, salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly reduced the left lung index (A) and right lung index (B). As shown in the histological staining images, salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly improved lung structure (C) and significantly reduced the pulmonary interstitial area (D), demonstrating the improved effect of salvianolic acid B / Rg1 on pulmonary function. Furthermore, as shown in (E), salvianolic acid B / Rg1 also inhibited neutrophil infiltration into lung tissue, and this inhibitory effect was statistically significant (F), suggesting that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly inhibited the occurrence of pulmonary embolism.

[0127] 4.2.2 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 Combination Treatment Improves Myocardial Hypertrophy Caused by Pulmonary Embolism Myocardial hypertrophy, a major complication of pulmonary embolism, can be assessed by measuring the cross-sectional area of ​​enlarged cardiomyocytes in HE-stained myocardial tissue. As shown in Figure 10, (A) is a representative image of HE staining of the heart, and (B) is an image of quantification of the cross-sectional area of ​​cardiomyocytes. Salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly reduced the incidence of myocardial hypertrophy induced by pulmonary embolism.

[0128] Example 5 Treatment of acute cerebral infarction in rats with salvianolic acid B / Rg1 combination (5:2) 5.1 Experimental animals and model construction Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (10 rats each): a sham-operated group, an acute cerebral infarction model group, and a salvianolic acid B / ginsenoside Rg1 combination group (5:2 ratio, 10 mg / kg dose). The rats were anesthetized and immobilized. The hair covering the chest was removed and disinfected with iodine tincture. The muscles, subcutaneous connective tissue, and anterior neck muscles were separated to expose the common carotid artery (CCA). A small incision was made 4 mm from the CCA bifurcation. An embolic suture was inserted through the incision into the internal carotid artery (ICA). The embolic suture was advanced approximately 20 mm from the bifurcation, occluding the middle cerebral artery (MCA), inducing cerebral infarction. Animals with cerebral infarction were treated with 10 mg / kg salvianolic acid B / ginsenoside Rg1 (salvianolic acid B / Rg1 group). Animals with cerebral infarction were administered saline (model group). The animals in the sham-operated group underwent the same surgical procedures except that no plug was inserted, and were administered saline at the same time points (sham-operated group).

[0129] 5.2 Experimental results 5.2.1 Reduction of cerebral infarction size by salvianolic acid B / Rg1 Cerebral infarct size was assessed by TTC staining, as shown in Figure 11. Panel A shows a representative image of cerebral TTC staining, with the infarcted area stained white and the non-infarcted area stained red. Panel B shows the quantitative results of infarct size (white area / (red area + white area) percentage). Salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly reduced infarct size, with a 39.42% reduction in infarct size compared to the model group. Note: *** indicates p<0.001 vs. sham-operated group, and && indicates p<0.01 vs. model group.

[0130] 5.2.2 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 Improves Behavioral Scoring in Rats after Cerebral Infarction The neuromotor function of rats was evaluated before and after surgery using Longa scoring, NSS scoring, and EBST. The results are shown in Figure 12. Based on the three scoring methods, no significant behavioral differences were observed among the animals in any of the three groups before surgery. After the cerebral infarction model was established, salvianolic acid B / Rg1 significantly improved neuromotor function based on EBST scoring (p<0.001), Longa scoring (p<0.05), and NSS scoring (p<0.05).

[0131] 5.2.3 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 Protection of Cerebral Cortical Neurons The cerebral cortex is a high-level center that regulates and controls body movements. As shown in Figure 13, A is a representative image of HE staining of the cerebral cortex, B is the quantification of the number of neurons in a single HE staining image, C is a representative image of Nissl staining of the cerebral cortex, and D is the quantification of the number of Nissl bodies in a single HE staining image. The results show that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 exhibits significant neuroprotective effects in both HE staining and Nissl staining. Note: *** indicates p<0.001 vs. sham operation, && indicates p<0.01, and &&& indicates p<0.001 vs. model operation.

[0132] 5.2.4 Protection of hippocampal neurons by salvianolic acid B / Rg1 Anatomically, the hippocampus is generally considered to be one of the medial projections of the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle and consists of four regions: CA1, CA2, CA3, and CA4. Neuronal cell bodies and their neuropil regions are arranged in layers. Figure 14 shows HE staining images of CA1, CA2, and CA3. Compared with the sham-operated group, animals in the model group exhibited vacuolization, shrinkage, loss, and a decrease in the number of neuronal cytoplasm. Compared with the model group, the salvianolic acid B / Rg1 group showed an increased number of surviving neurons, a more regular arrangement of neurons, and a significant increase in the number of neurons.

[0133] Figure 15 shows representative images of Nessl staining in CA1, CA2, and CA3, along with the quantitative results. The cell counts shown in the representative images (A, B, C) of Nessl staining in the CA1, CA2, and CA3 regions correspond to the trends of HE staining. The left hemisphere of this animal model is the injured area, while the right hemisphere shows normal histological structure. The grayscale difference / image field between the left and right hemispheres indicates the extent of neuronal damage in the model animal. The quantitative results in Figures B, D, and F demonstrate that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 protects neuronal integrity. Figures 15-16 show that both HE staining and Nissl staining demonstrate the protective effect of salvianolic acid B / Rg1 on hippocampal CA1, CA2, and CA3.

[0134] Example 6 Treatment of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats with a combination of salvianolic acid B and Rg1 (5:2) 6.1 Experimental animals and model construction Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups of 10 rats each: a sham-operated group, a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model group, an edaravone (purchased from Sinopharm Group Guorui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., lot number: 1909116) group, a butylphthalide (purchased from Sinopharm Group Enpipu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., lot number: 6182002117) group, and a salvianolic acid B and Rg1 combination group (5:2, dose 5 mg / kg).

[0135] The rats were anesthetized and fixed, and the hair covering the chest was removed and disinfected with iodine tincture. The muscles, subcutaneous connective tissue, and anterior cervical muscles were then separated to expose the common carotid artery (CCA). A small incision was made 4 mm from the CCA bifurcation, and an embolic thread was inserted through the incision into the internal carotid artery (ICA). The embolization thread was then pushed approximately 20 mm from the bifurcation, and the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was occluded for 2 hours to induce cerebral infarction. After 2 hours, the embolization thread was removed to create a model of cerebral ischemia (2 hours) followed by 24 hours of reperfusion. The drugs were administered 10 minutes before the cork removal (tail vein injection). In the salvianolic acid B / Rg1 group, 5 mg / kg of salvianolic acid B / ginsenoside Rg1 was administered, in the edaravone group, 5 mg / kg of edaravone calculated as the active ingredient, in the butylphthalide group, 5 mg / kg of butylphthalide calculated as the active ingredient, in the model group, 5 mg / kg of saline was administered, and in the sham operation group, all surgical procedures were exactly the same except that no cork was inserted into the animals, and 5 mg / kg of saline was administered.

[0136] 6.2 Experimental results 6.2.1 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 reduces cerebral infarct size after reperfusion injury As shown in Figure 16, cerebral infarction size was assessed by TTC staining. Representative images of the staining results for each group are shown in Figure A, and quantitative infarction size results are shown in Figure B. It can be seen that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 had a more pronounced effect on reducing infarction size than edaravone or butylphthalide. Note: *** indicates p<0.001, * indicates p<0.1 vs. sham surgery group, and && indicates p<0.01 vs. model group.

[0137] 6.2.2 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 improves behavioral scoring in rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion The neuromotor function of rats was evaluated before and after surgery using Longa scoring, and the results are shown in Figure 17. Based on the Longa scoring method, no significant behavioral differences were observed among the animals in any of the five groups before surgery. After model construction, Longa evaluation showed that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 had a superior effect on improving neuromotor function compared to edaravone and butylphthalide.

[0138] 6.2.3 Salvianolic Acid B / Rg1 Protection of Cerebral Cortical Neurons As shown in Figure 18, A is HE staining of the cerebral cortex, and B is Nessl staining of the cerebral cortex. Compared to the sham-operated group, the model group showed obvious vacuolization, shrinkage, loss, and a decrease in the number of neuronal cytoplasm. Compared to the model group, the salvianolic acid B / Rg1 group had a higher rate of surviving neurons than the model group, edaravone group, and butylphthalide group. Both HE staining and Nissl staining showed that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 had a protective effect on neurons, and demonstrated a more effective treatment effect than edaravone and butylphthalide.

[0139] 6.2.4 Protection of hippocampal neurons by salvianolic acid B / Rg1 Figure 19 shows representative images of HE staining of CA1, CA2, and CA3, and Figure 20 shows representative images of Nissl staining of CA1, CA2, and CA3. Both HE staining and Nissl staining showed that salvianolic acid B / Rg1 had a protective effect on hippocampal CA1, CA2, and CA3, and demonstrated a superior therapeutic effect to edaravone and butylphthalide.

[0140] Example 7 Protective effect of salvianolic acid B / ginsenoside Rg1 combination (5:2) against hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats 7.1 Experimental animals and model construction Sixteen male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: one was a hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury model group, and the other was a salvianolic acid B / Rg1 (5:2) combination treatment group. The liver ischemia-reperfusion injury model was constructed as follows. Rats were weighed, anesthetized, and the abdominal fur removed and secured to the operating table. After disinfection with iodine tincture, a 5 cm longitudinal incision was made from the center of the abdomen to the xiphoid process. The skin, muscle, and peritoneum were subsequently incised to expose the liver and gastrointestinal tract. The perihepatic ligaments were separated. The middle lobe of the liver was occluded with a microscopic hemostatic clip. The left lobe portal vein, hepatic artery, and bile duct were exposed. The liver lobe gradually turned from red to deep blue, indicating successful hepatic blood flow occlusion. After 1 hour of blood flow occlusion, the hemostatic clip was removed. The liver lobe gradually turned a bright red, indicating successful liver reperfusion. A control group received saline solution simultaneously with reperfusion. In the salvianolic acid B / Rg1 combination group, 10 mg / kg of salvianolic acid B / ginsenoside Rg1 (5:2) was administered simultaneously with reperfusion, and the liver was sampled 6 hours after reperfusion to evaluate its liver protective effect.

[0141] 7.2 Experimental results The liver tissue was subjected to HE staining. As shown in Figure 21 (top image at 200X, bottom image at 400X), after 6 hours of ischemia-reperfusion, the model group showed incomplete hepatic lobule structure, disorganized hepatocytes, hyperemia and swelling, and obvious cell necrosis. Salvianolic acid B / Rg1 could improve hepatocyte structure, but the effect was not as obvious as in the heart and brain.

[0142] Consider In the existing technology, experimental results showed the effect of different drugs in reducing infarct size. Because the ratio of salvianolic acid B < ginsenoside Rg1 << salvianolic acid B:ginsenoside Rg1 = 2:5 in the administration group (see CN2011102229806, Figure 3), ginsenoside Rg1 was more effective than salvianolic acid B in reducing cardiac infarct size, and the higher the ratio of ginsenoside Rg1 when used in combination, the better the effect tends to be. Surprisingly, compared to the optimal combination ratio (Salvianolic acid B / Rg1 = 2:5) disclosed in the existing technology, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention (weight of salvianolic acid B > ginsenoside Rg1) showed superior effects in the treatment of ischemic diseases such as myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, and pulmonary embolism, as well as cardiac and cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., reduction of infarct size, improvement of tissue and organ structure and function). Unexpectedly, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention can further reduce the LDH concentration in blood and / or inhibit the activity of LDH, and is useful as an LDH inhibitor.

[0143] Different tissues and organs (e.g., heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, brain, muscles, nerves, etc.) differ in their tissue structure, function, vascular distribution, and blood demand, making it difficult to predict whether a drug will have a therapeutic effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury in different organs. Surprisingly, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention exhibits excellent organ function-improving effects not only on ischemia-reperfusion injury in the heart but also in organs such as the brain, kidneys, and liver, and can be used to treat ischemia-reperfusion injury in a wide range of tissues and organs.

[0144] Even more unexpectedly, the combination of SalB / Rg1 showed superior therapeutic effects on cardiac and cerebral ischemic diseases and ischemia-reperfusion injury compared to other tissues and organs, and its protective effect on ischemic stroke and reperfusion injury after ischemic stroke was particularly surprising, not only significantly reducing infarct size but also significantly improving animal behavior, suggesting that the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention has potential as an excellent treatment for cardiac and cerebral diseases.
