Detailed Description
The present example was carried out using the following method:
data acquisition
In this example, diabetic nephropathy patients were used as subjects, and were randomly divided into test groups and control groups of 30 persons.
Wherein the test groups: the GANDI Capsule is taken by diabetic nephropathy patients 3 times daily, 3 capsules each time, and is continuously administered for 6 months.
Control group: the medicine residue capsule is taken 3 times a day, 3 capsules each time, and is continuously used for 6 months by patients with diabetic nephropathy.
Patients were sampled 24h urine and blood every 2 months. Blood and urine samples were subjected to sample pretreatment and then chromatographed using an Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1mm × 100mm,1.7 μm, Waters,) chromatography column. The composition of the mobile phase was: b: 0.1% formic acid acetonitrile, gradient elution setup as follows: 3 percent of B in 0-2min, 3-15 percent of B in 2-11min, 15-30 percent of B in 11-16min, 30-95 percent of B in 16-18min, 95 percent of B in 18-19.5min, and 95-3 percent of B in 19.5-20 min; then balancing for 4 min; the flow rate is 400 mu L/min, and the sample injection amount is 4 mu L; . Data acquisition was performed using an Agilent 6530Accurate-Mass Q-TOFMS tandem quadrupole-time-of-flight Mass spectrometer with ESI source and parameters set to positive ion mode. Capillary voltage: 3500V; flow rate of drying gas: 11L/min; spraying air pressure: 45 psig; temperature of the drying gas: 350 ℃; fragmentation voltage: 120V; the mass range is as follows: m/z is 50-1000. The collision energy for MS/MS secondary mass spectrometry is set to 10-30 eV.
(II) data acquisition and processing
The data with LC-MS was converted to NetCDF and mzData format by MassHunter software. In MATLAB7.0 software, a peak filtering technology inside a subject group is used, namely only the ion fragment with the strongest abundance in the same retention time is retained, and other fragments are deleted. Next, the data is further processed with XCMS software. The XCMS software mainly functions to perform non-linear correction and normalization on data. The parameters are set as Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM) 10, bandwidth (bw) 10 and signal to noise ratio (snthresh) 5, and the other parameters are default values. Using the metabonomically accepted 80% rule, those variables with RSD less than 30% in QC samples were retained and these data were imported into MATLAB7.0 software and normalized for total peak area. And finally, integrating the processed data to obtain a new data set, and performing multivariate statistical analysis.
Serum and urine samples from selected blanks and patients 6 months after administration of the gandi capsules were subjected to metabolic profiling using the method described above. The serum UPLC-Q-TOF/MS profiles of the typical blank group and the 6-month administered group are shown in fig. 1, and the urine UPLC-Q-TOF/MS profile is shown in fig. 2. The screened data set has a higher peak capacity, wherein the serum data set contains 579 peaks, and the urine data set contains 998 peaks.
(III) Metabonomics data analysis
Partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) is a supervised multivariate statistical method, and analysis is performed by adopting the 13.0 version of SIMCA-P software, and data is subjected to log transformation in order to reduce unit errors. And (3) screening potential metabolic markers with the strongest distinguishing capability between the two groups by analyzing a Loading graph and a score graph of the OPLS-DA model and combining the conditions that the VIP value of the importance parameter is more than 1.0 and the P value is less than 0.05.
The following three parameters (R) are mainly adopted for evaluating the quality of the model2X,R2Y and Q2Y), calculated by the default leave-one-out procedure. R2X and R2Y is for evaluating goodness of fit, Q2Y is used to evaluate model predictability.
In order to obtain characteristic ions which can distinguish two groups, the method is adopted by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS in the embodiment, and an OPLS-DA model is constructed according to collected data. As shown in FIG. 3, the multivariate statistical Performance parameter is R2X=0.599,R2Y=0.921,Q20.745, indicating that both models have highly efficient prediction capabilities. The classification specificity of an OPLS-DA model constructed by a blank group and a data set of 6 months after administration of the gandi capsules also reaches 100 percent, and the sensitivity reaches 100 percent.
According to the S-plot load of the OPLS-DA model (shown in figures 3 and 4) and the VIP score, a metabolic marker capable of distinguishing a blank group from a sweet land capsule administration group is screened. Respectively finding 18 and 20 metabolic biomarkers in UPLC-Q-TOF/MS serum and urine data, wherein potential metabolic biomarkers in the serum mainly comprise lipid metabolites such as long-chain fatty acid and the like, purine and creatinine, and potential metabolic biomarkers in the urine mainly comprise amino acid, organic acid, purine, sphingosine and the like.
(IV) statistical analysis
Using SPSS software, Student's T-test statistical analysis was used to compare whether the different metabolites between the different treatment groups were statistically significant. When the P value is less than 0.05, the difference is considered significant.
By adopting the statistical method, the relative ionic strength of the metabolites is introduced into SPSS software for t-test analysis, and the result shows that the P values of all the different metabolites are less than 0.05, thereby proving the accuracy of identifying the different metabolic biomarkers by using the method.
(V) metabolic pathway enrichment analysis (IPA)
Ipa (intuition Pathway analysis) is an algorithm-based large-scale biological Pathway analysis software. On one hand, related information in the aspects of genes, proteins, medicines and the like can be searched, and an interaction network model of the related information is constructed; on the other hand, the method can also analyze experimental data from genome, micro-RNA, SNP, chip, metabolome, proteome and the like. This example uses IPA analysis to perform enrichment analysis on metabolic biomarkers screened from the previous OPLS-DA model, as shown in FIG. 5. The size and color depth of the circle are main indexes for judging the enrichment rate of the pathway, and the circle mainly comprises the reliability (-LogP) and the influence (Impact) of the pathway, as shown in the following table, the pathway with the highest enrichment efficiency is a purine metabolic pathway, the pathway arranged on the second is a glycerol phospholipid metabolic pathway, and other pathways also comprise various amino acid metabolic pathways. Therefore, purine, glycerophospholipid, phenylalanine, arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, proline and glutamine are metabolized, and the key way for the glycine-rehmannia capsule to play the efficacy of treating diabetic nephropathy and regulate the metabolic level of the organism is provided.

(VI) Metabolic pathway interaction map construction
In the present example, in the study of the metabolic biomarker differences between the gandi capsule administration group and the control group, 38 potential metabolic biomarkers were found. The changes of the markers are closely related to corresponding metabolic pathways, including lipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, purine metabolism, phenylalanine, arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, proline, glutamine metabolism and the like. To mine the relationships between these marker metabolites, a metabolic pathway interaction map was constructed by searching KEGG PATHWAY the database as shown in FIG. 6. The pathway change of the gandi capsule administration group at the metabolic level can be better summarized and summarized through the visualization of the change of the metabolic biomarker.
Action and effect of the present embodiment:
in the embodiment, a metabonomic method for researching the mechanism of the gandi capsule for treating the diabetic nephropathy is constructed by combining UPLC-Q-TOF/MS data with a multivariate statistical analysis method (OPLS-DA). Through the research of the method, 39 metabolic markers of serum and/or urine are discovered, and the change of the markers is closely related to corresponding metabolic pathways, including lipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, purine metabolism, phenylalanine, arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, proline, glutamine metabolism and the like.
Chronic inflammation caused by diabetes can cause kidney injury through various ways, cause obvious oxidative stress of the body, and generate a large amount of ROS (reactive oxygen species), and the ROS can damage blood vessel walls to cause vascular inflammation. In addition, CRP can also directly induce the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (Pal-1) mRNA and Pal-1 protein by endothelial cells, and increase its activity, which aggravates kidney damage. Through synthesizing adhesion molecules and monocyte chemotactic protein-1, the leukocyte synthesis is promoted to release superoxide and proteolytic enzyme, so that kidney tissue damage is caused, and clinically, proteinuria and lipid metabolism disorder are shown.
Phospholipid metabolic disorders are key factors in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy, and phospholipids are the major structural components of biological membranes and contain a variety of fatty acid components, such as Phosphatidylglycerol (PG), Phosphatidylimine (PE), Phosphatidylinositol (PI), Phosphatidylinositol (PS), Phosphatidylcholine (PC), Sphingomyelin (SM), and Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). In addition to this structural role, PC is involved in the process of deposition of emulsified neutral fat and cholesterol in blood vessels, improving intelligence, activating cells. In addition, their metabolism is closely related to many diseases such as alzheimer's disease, obesity, cancer, and the like. Due to these important biological functions, PC has gained increasing attention in many fields. Numerous studies have shown that disorders of lipid metabolism are directly associated with type II diabetes and diabetic nephropathy. In some disease models, PC molecules have become important biomarkers for the regulation or modulation of expression in type II diabetes and diabetic nephropathy.
In this example, it was found by a metabonomic method that the level of phospholipid metabolites in serum was significantly reduced in the gandi capsule-administered group compared to the control group, and that the phospholipid components, such as LysoPC (18:2(9Z,12Z)), PC (0:0/18:0), and LysoPE (20:0/0:0), were involved in the long-chain saturated or unsaturated phospholipid components. According to the OPLS-DA trend graph and the concentration change of potential biomarkers, abnormal phospholipid metabolism is shown to occur in diabetic nephropathy patients. The possible mechanisms include the three pathways of sorbitol, oxidative stress, Protein Kinase C (PKC) to be activated in the glucose high concentration environment of diabetes. Whereas activation of phospholipids (PLA2) is associated with activation of PKC. Phospholipase is an important enzyme in human body, and can catalyze the decomposition of phospholipid to generate free fatty acid. Thus, activated PLA2 will accelerate the breakdown of phospholipids. The results obtained in our experiments for increased levels of PC and LPC metabolism are consistent with this mechanism. With the development of diabetic nephropathy, PLA2 is activated, so the concentration of PC is reduced. PC loses one fatty acid chain under the catalysis of phosphatase, and the concentration of PC increases when PC is decomposed. Abnormal Phosphoinositide (PI) metabolism is a downward trend, a phenomenon that may be associated with the activation of the Sorbitol Pathway (SP). Under the intervention of the gandi capsules, the relative contents of phospholipid components such as lysoPC (18:2(9Z,12Z)), PC (0:0/18:0), lysoPE (20:0/0:0), PI (22:0/20:4(5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)), PC (18:2(2E,4E)/0:0) and the like are remarkably reduced, which suggests that the gandi capsules can play a role in regulating the development of diabetic nephropathy by interfering in phospholipid metabolism and inhibiting phospholipid decomposition and metabolism. Many studies have shown that altered LysoPC content is associated with physiological changes in apoptosis, including mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. However, the specific mechanism is not clear, and the relationship between the change in the glycerocapsule and LysoPC needs to be further investigated.
In addition, the results of this example show that the level of metabolites such as uric acid, hypoxanthine and purine in the gan di capsule-administered group was significantly reduced compared to the control group. Uric acid is produced by purine metabolism, and therefore our findings suggest that xanthine oxidase activation is closely associated with the formation of microalbuminuria. In diabetic nephropathy patients, purine metabolism is closely associated with proteinuria, indicating that purine metabolism is disturbed during the course of the disease. Uric acid, hippuric acid, and hypoxanthine are all products produced from purine metabolism, and two key purine catabolism (xanthine and hypoxanthine) are produced by Xanthine Oxidase (XO), and the action of active oxygen. The result shows that the urine of the patient treated by the gandi capsule has obviously reduced levels of metabolites such as uric acid, hypoxanthine, purine and the like, which indicates that the activation of xanthine oxidase is obviously inhibited and the purine metabolic disorder tends to be mild.
Amino acid metabolism is also a key metabolic biomarker pointed out by IPA analysis, and metabolic pathways such as phenylalanine, tryptophan, aspartic acid, leucine and proline are involved. Recent studies have shown that Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) including valine, leucine, isoleucine, and aromatic amino acids such as tyrosine and phenylalanine are considered as strong predictors and biomarkers for serum and urine samples from diabetes. Similarly, serum leucine content or urine metabolites BCAA and aromatic amino acids have also changed significantly in diabetic nephropathy patients. Therefore, the change of amino acid metabolites has a significant influence on the destruction of the renal filtration state to a large extent, which is important in connection with the occurrence of diabetic nephropathy renal tissue pathology.
Therefore, the results that the gandi capsules mainly influence the amino acid metabolism, the lipid metabolism and the purine metabolism of diabetic nephropathy patients are obtained, and the gandi capsules can improve the proteinuria in clinical practice and are consistent with the previous research.
In conclusion, in the embodiment, the metabolic profile changes of the serum and urine of patients in the gandi capsule administration group and the control group are researched by using a UPLC-Q-TOF/MS metabonomics method, and the changes of the serum and urine metabolic markers of the patients after 6 months of treatment of the gandi capsule are screened by using a multivariate statistical analysis method of partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The results show that UPLC-MS serum dataThe set contained 579 peaks, and the urine data set contained 998 peaks. The statistical performance parameter of the data is R2X=0.599,R2Y=0.921,Q2These parameters indicate that both models have a high degree of effective predictive power. The potential biomarkers are screened from the data of UPLC-Q-TOF/MS serum and urine, wherein the potential metabolic biomarkers in the serum mainly comprise lipid metabolites such as long-chain fatty acids and the like, and also comprise purine, creatinine and the like, and the potential metabolic biomarkers in the urine mainly comprise amino acids, organic acids, purine, sphingosine and the like. The key metabolic pathways were enriched using IPA analysis. The most efficient pathway for enrichment is the purine metabolic pathway, the second most important pathway is the phospholipid metabolic pathway, and other pathways for amino acid metabolism are also available. Therefore, purine, glycerophospholipid, phenylalanine, arginine, alanine, aspartic acid, proline and glutamine are metabolized, and the key way for the glycine-rehmannia capsule to play the efficacy of treating diabetic nephropathy and regulate the metabolic level of the organism is provided.
In this example, the effect of the change in metabolic markers in hematuria after administration of the gandi capsule on the improvement of purine metabolism, phospholipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism was successfully predicted. This is consistent with the results of the clinical study of Gandi capsules, i.e., 24h reduction in urinary microalbumin. The embodiment also provides a feasible method for predicting the pharmacological mechanism of other Chinese herbal compound preparations.
