High-temperature carbonisation is used to prepare many traditional Chinese medicine charcoal drugs, but the bioactive haemostatic substances of these medicines and their mechanisms are still unknown. This study developed and evaluated nanoparticles (NPs) derived from (STC) for the first time. The haemostatic effect of STC-NPs prepared at 300, 350, and 400 °C were investigated in mouse tail amputation and liver scratch experiments. STC-NPs obtained at 400 °C had the strongest haemostatic effect, and were accordingly characterised by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. STC-NPs averaged 1.4-2.8 nm and exhibited a quantum yield of 6.06% at a maximum excitation wavelength of 332 nm and emission at 432 nm. STC-NPs displayed low toxicity against mouse monocyte macrophage RAW 264.7 cells by CCK-8 assay, and STC-NP treatment significantly shortened bleeding time in rat and mouse models. Coagulation assays showed that the haemostatic effects of STC-NPs were related to improving the fibrinogen and platelet contents, as well as decreasing the prothrombin time that resulted from stimulating extrinsic blood coagulation and activating the fibrinogen system. The STC-NPs had remarkable haemostatic effects in the tail amputation and liver scratch models; these effects may be associated with the exogenous coagulation pathway and activation of the brinogen system, according to the evaluation of the mouse coagulation parameters. This novel evaluation supports the material basis of STC use in traditional Chinese medicine, and this article is worthy of study by authors of clinical pharmacy.
高温炭化用于制备许多中药炭药,但这些药物的生物活性止血物质及其机制尚不清楚。本研究首次开发并评估了来源于(STC)的纳米粒子(NPs)。在小鼠尾切断和肝划痕实验中研究了在 300、350 和 400°C 下制备的 STC-NPs 的止血作用。在 400°C 下获得的 STC-NPs 具有最强的止血作用,并用紫外可见光谱、荧光光谱、傅里叶变换红外光谱、透射电子显微镜、高分辨率透射电子显微镜、X 射线衍射和 X 射线光电子能谱对其进行了表征。STC-NPs 的平均粒径为 1.4-2.8nm,在最大激发波长为 332nm 且发射波长为 432nm 时,量子产率为 6.06%。CCK-8 测定法显示,STC-NPs 对小鼠单核巨噬细胞 RAW264.7 细胞的毒性较低,STC-NP 处理可显著缩短大鼠和小鼠模型的出血时间。凝血测定表明,STC-NPs 的止血作用与改善纤维蛋白原和血小板含量以及缩短凝血酶原时间有关,这是通过刺激外源性凝血和激活纤维蛋白原系统引起的。STC-NPs 在尾切断和肝划痕模型中具有显著的止血作用;根据小鼠凝血参数的评估,这些作用可能与外源性凝血途径和纤维蛋白原系统的激活有关。这种新的评估支持了 STC 在中药中的应用的物质基础,这篇文章值得临床药学作者研究。
