The aim of this study was to assess the activity of extracts from A. DC () in a model of chronic bronchitis in rats. The research was carried out on three water extracts: E1 - from roots of field cultivated ; E2 - from biotransformed roots of ; E3 - from callus of The extracts differed in saponins and inulin levels-the highest was measured in E3 and the lowest in E1. Identification of secondary metabolites was performed using two complementary LC-MS systems. Chronic bronchitis was induced by sodium metabisulfite (a source of SO). Animals were treated with extracts for three weeks (100 mg/kg, intragastrically) and endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factors (TGF-β1, -β2, -β3), and mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) levels were determined in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, whereas C reactive protein (CRP) level was measured in serum. Moreover, mRNA expression were assessed in bronchi and lungs. In SO-exposed rats, an elevation of the CRP, TGF-β1, TGF-β2, VEGF, and mucin was found, but the extracts' administration mostly reversed this phenomenon, leading to control values. The results showed a strong anti-inflammatory effect of the extracts from .
本研究旨在评估 A. DC()提取物在大鼠慢性支气管炎模型中的活性。研究采用三种水提取物进行:E1-来自田间种植的根;E2-来自生物转化的根;E3-来自愈伤组织。提取物在皂苷和菊粉水平上存在差异-E3 中的含量最高,E1 中的含量最低。使用两种互补的 LC-MS 系统进行了次生代谢产物的鉴定。慢性支气管炎由偏亚硫酸钠(SO 的来源)诱导。动物用提取物治疗 3 周(100mg/kg,灌胃),测定支气管肺泡灌洗液中内皮生长因子(VEGF)、转化生长因子(TGF-β1、-β2、-β3)和粘蛋白 5AC(MUC5AC)水平,血清中 C 反应蛋白(CRP)水平。此外,还评估了支气管和肺部的 mRNA 表达。在 SO 暴露的大鼠中,发现 CRP、TGF-β1、TGF-β2、VEGF 和粘蛋白升高,但提取物的给药大多逆转了这种现象,使这些指标恢复到正常水平。研究结果表明,A. DC 的提取物具有很强的抗炎作用。
