Abstract
The Fufang Xueshuantong capsule (FXT) has significant preventive and therapeutic effects on diabetic retinopathy(DR), but the compatibility of its active components remains to be thoroughly explored. In this study, a zebrafish diabetic retinopathy model was established using high-mixed sugars, and the optimal ratios of notoginseng total saponins, total salvianolic acid, astragaloside, and harpagide were selected through orthogonal experiments. Furthermore, we used UPLC-QqQ/MS to detect the changes in amino acid content of DR zebrafish tissues after administration of FXT and its compatible formula to analyze the effects of FXT and its compatible formula on amino acid metabolites. The results showed that the final compatibility ratios of the components were 8: 5: 1: 6.6 by comprehensive evaluation of the indicators. FXT and its compatibility formula had beneficial effects on retinal vasodilatation, lipid accumulation in the liver, total glucose, and VEGF levels in DR zebrafish, and all of them could call back some amino acid levels in DR zebrafish. In this research, we determined the compatible formulation of the active ingredients in the FXT and investigated their efficacy in DR zebrafish for further clinical applications.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatography B publishes papers on developments in separation science relevant to biology and biomedical research including both fundamental advances and applications. Analytical techniques which may be considered include the various facets of chromatography, electrophoresis and related methods, affinity and immunoaffinity-based methodologies, hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, and microanalytical approaches. The journal also considers articles reporting developments in sample preparation, detection techniques including mass spectrometry, and data handling and analysis.
Developments related to preparative separations for the isolation and purification of components of biological systems may be published, including chromatographic and electrophoretic methods, affinity separations, field flow fractionation and other preparative approaches.
Applications to the analysis of biological systems and samples will be considered when the analytical science contains a significant element of novelty, e.g. a new approach to the separation of a compound, novel combination of analytical techniques, or significantly improved analytical performance.
