Description

A traditional Chinese medicine composition, its preparation method and application Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine composition technology, specifically relating to a traditional Chinese medicine composition, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic metabolic skeletal disease characterized by decreased bone mass and destruction of bone microstructure, resulting in increased bone fragility and a higher risk of fractures. It primarily affects postmenopausal women and elderly men. Current treatments for osteoporosis mainly focus on long-term oral calcium supplements, vitamin D supplementation, or bisphosphonates, calcitonin injections or related hormones, traditional Chinese medicine, and exercise. Osteoporosis is a chronic disease with a long treatment period, and long-term medication or injections can place a significant burden on the patient's body.

[0003] Chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP / CPPS) refers to chronic inflammation of the prostate tissue caused by various etiologies, and is the most common type of prostatitis. The main clinical manifestations include dysuria, urinary frequency, lower back pain, and premature ejaculation, with some patients also experiencing depression and anxiety. The pathogenesis of CP / CPPS is not yet fully understood. Some researchers believe that the disease is caused by multiple factors, such as infection, neuropsychological factors, immune disorders, oxidative stress, intraprostatic duct reflux, and pelvic floor muscle abnormalities. It is prone to recurrence, severely impacting patients' quality of life and making clinical treatment challenging.

[0004] Currently, modern medicine aims to control symptoms, not cure, chronic prostatitis (CP / CPPS) in its treatment. Clinically, antibiotics, alpha-adrenergic receptor blockers, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and some herbal preparations are commonly used. Antibiotics are currently the first-line treatment for chronic prostatitis, showing good efficacy against bacterial factors and certain microbial infections. However, due to the prostate's unique anatomical structure, drugs sometimes have difficulty penetrating the gland to exert their therapeutic effect, and long-term use of antibiotics can easily lead to drug resistance and intestinal flora imbalance. Alpha-adrenergic receptor blockers can reduce the hyperresponsiveness of adrenergic nerves, showing some effect in relieving pelvic pain and lower urinary tract obstruction. However, their adverse reactions and high price limit their use, and their efficacy remains controversial. NSAIDs and some herbal preparations have some effect in relieving symptoms such as pain and discomfort.

[0005] Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in the treatment of chronic prostatitis. Traditional Chinese medicine classifies chronic prostatitis into the categories of "jingzhuo", "baiyin", "linzheng", etc. according to its main clinical manifestations. The pathogenesis is deficiency in origin and excess in superficiality. Kidney deficiency, spleen deficiency, damp-heat, qi stagnation, and blood stasis are considered the main pathogenic factors. The treatment mostly starts from both deficiency and excess, with the main principle of strengthening the healthy qi and eliminating pathogenic factors.

[0006] Cui Hongliang disclosed a traditional Chinese medicine composition in the clinical study on the urodynamic effects of Baojing Tablets on patients with chronic prostatitis (Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 2006, dissertation). The prescription composition of this traditional Chinese medicine composition is 10 traditional Chinese medicines, namely indigo naturalis, dodder seed, oyster, licorice root, schisandra fruit, dioscorea septemlobata, verbena officinalis, poria cocos, acorus tatarinowii, and zedoary turmeric. It was initially proved to be effective for chronic prostatitis. Although this technology only analyzed the single traditional Chinese medicines of Baojing Tablets, it did not give the specific dosages of each medicine, nor the compatibility relationship of monarch, minister, assistant, and guide, nor the treatment guidance related to osteoporosis.

[0081] 3. Model establishment and animal grouping

[0082] Thirty-five rats were randomly selected, and references were consulted. 1 This report describes the establishment of a rat model of prostatitis. Under aseptic conditions, 100 μL of 1 wt% carrageenan saline solution was injected into the prostate of anesthetized rats, 100 μL each into the left and right ventral lobes. The remaining 5 rats served as a blank control group. One week after modeling, the rats were randomly divided into 5 groups to begin drug administration: the model group, the positive control group (Prostyrax tablets group, 126.6 mg / kg). -1 ) and the sample group of Example 7 (equivalent to 2.58 g·kg of raw medicinal materials) -1 Eight sample groups (equivalent to 2.58 g / kg of raw medicinal materials) were implemented. -1 Example 9 - Comparative Sample Group (equivalent to 2.58 g / kg of raw medicinal material) -1 Five animals were placed in each group, and 63 ml of purified water was used to prepare the solution. The blank control group and the model group were given the same amount of solvent by gavage once a day for one week.

[0084] 4. Sample collection

[0085] After administration, rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 10% chloral hydrate solution (0.4 mL / 100 g), and blood was collected from the abdominal aorta. The prostate tissue was dissected, washed with physiological saline, and the tissue of the left ventral lobe of the prostate was photographed and recorded before being stored in 10% formalin; the tissue of the right ventral lobe of the prostate was flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C.

[0086] 4.1 Detection of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels in prostate tissue using ELISA.

[0087] Frozen specimens were taken in liquid nitrogen, weighed, and then added to a quantitative PBS (pH 7.4) buffer. After tissue homogenization, the samples were centrifuged at 4°C and 3000 rpm for 20 minutes. The supernatant was collected, and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the prostate tissue of rats in each group were detected.

[0088] 4.2 HE staining for observation of prostate tissue pathological morphology

[0089] The overall appearance, size, texture, color, and presence of necrosis of the prostate tissue are observed with the naked eye. The fixed prostate tissue is then removed and subjected to a series of procedures including fixation, dehydration, paraffin embedding, sectioning, dewaxing, and staining. The pathological changes of the prostate tissue are then observed under a microscope.

[0090] 4.3 Western blot analysis of p-AKT, p-JUN, and p-MAPK3 protein expression in prostate tissue

[0091] Total protein was extracted from tissues of each group using RIPA lysis buffer, and protein concentration was measured. Equal amounts of protein samples from each group were subjected to electrophoresis, membrane transfer, and skim milk blocking. Rabbit anti-rat primary antibodies (p-AKT, p-JUN, p-MAPK3) were added and incubated overnight at 4°C. Goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody was then added. The gray values ​​of each protein band were analyzed using IPWIN60 software, with β-actin antibody used as an internal control.

[0092] 5. Statistical Analysis

[0093] Data was processed using GraphPad Prism 9.4.1 software, and the experimental data are presented in the format of... This indicates that one-way ANOVA was used for comparisons among multiple groups. P < 0.05 indicates that the difference is statistically significant.

[0094] 6. Experimental Results

[0095] 6.1 Prostate Index

[0096] Compared with the blank control group, the prostate index of rats in the model group was significantly increased (P<0.01), indicating successful model establishment. Compared with the model group, the prostate index of the positive control group, the sample group of Example 8, and the sample group of Example 7 showed extremely significant differences (P<0.01), and the comparative sample showed significant differences (P<0.05). All showed significant improvement in the prostate index. The prostate index of the sample groups of Example 8 and Example 7 was significantly better than that of the comparative sample.

[0097] Table 3. Changes in prostate index in each group

[0098] Note: Compared with the blank group, ## P<0.01; compared with the model group, * P<0.05, ** P<0.01; compared with the comparative sample, $ P<0.05.

[0099] 6.2 Effects on the morphology of rat prostate tissue

[0100] Macroscopic examination of the prostate tissue revealed edema in the model group compared to the blank control group, with white nodules and tissue adhesions on the surface. Microscopic observation showed that the prostate gland structure in the blank control group was intact, with no obvious inflammatory changes in the interstitium and only a small amount of fibrous tissue visible. The model group showed a large number of interstitial mononuclear cells and inflammatory cell infiltration, papillary projections within the acini, and significant epithelial cell proliferation. Compared to the model group, inflammatory cell infiltration in all treatment groups was reduced, and acinar epithelial hyperplasia and papillary projections were decreased. In terms of improving the pathological effects of prostate tissue, the improvement effects of the comparative sample group, the sample group of Example 8, and the sample group of Example 7 increased sequentially. The improvement effect of the sample group of Example 7 was comparable to that of the positive control group and significantly better than that of the comparative sample group.

[0101] 6.3 Effects on TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β levels in rat prostate tissue

[0102] Compared with the blank control group, the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in the prostate tissue of rats in the model group were increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in the prostate tissue of rats in the positive control group and the sample group of Example 7 were significantly decreased (P<0.01).

[0103] Furthermore, the IL-6 levels of the sample groups in Examples 8 and 7 were significantly different from those in the sample group in Comparative Example 1 (P < 0.05), indicating that the traditional Chinese medicine compositions prepared in Examples 8 and 7 of this invention have better anti-inflammatory effects than those in the sample group in Comparative Example 1.

[0108] Model establishment: Sixty SPF-grade female SD rats, 3 months old and weighing 200–220g, were used. Ten rats were selected for grouping and preparation, and were subjected to experiments after one week of acclimatization. Except for the sham-operated group, all other rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 10% chloral hydrate, and both ovaries were removed to replicate the postmenopausal osteoporosis model; in the sham-operated group, only a portion of the surrounding adipose tissue was removed. Postoperatively, each rat was injected with 80,000 units of veterinary penicillin to prevent infection. Starting one week postoperatively, the appropriate drugs were administered by gavage daily for 12 consecutive weeks.

[0109] Grouping and administration: Animals were randomly divided into four groups: sham surgery group, ovariectomy group, positive control group, drug A group, and drug B group, with 10 animals in each group. The positive control group received estradiol valerate tablets (0.09 mg / kg). Drug A group was prepared according to the method in Example 7 (equivalent to 2.58 g / kg of raw medicinal material). -1 Drug B was prepared according to the method in Example 10 (equivalent to 2.58 g / kg of raw medicinal material). -1 The drug was prepared in 63ml of purified water, and the same amount of solvent was administered by gavage to the sham surgery group and the ovarian removal group.

[0110] After 12 weeks of drug administration, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), calcium (Ca), and osteocalcin (OC), a bone metabolism marker, were measured. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0111] Table 5 Data for Relevant Indicators

[0112] Compared with the sham surgery group, # P<0.05; compared with the oophorectomy group, * P<0.05
