Description

Pharmaceutical composition containing scutellarin, baicalin and/or breviscapine and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and particularly relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing scutellarin and analogues thereof and application thereof.
Background
Skin is the primary barrier between the human body and the environment. It is known to have many protective functions, including preventing body from losing water, preventing bacteria and toxic substances from outside the environment, etc., and therefore, it is very important to maintain the integrity and continuity of the skin.
Skin injuries can stimulate a wound healing response. In the wound healing reaction, the stages of blood clot formation, inflammation, re-epithelialization and the like are coordinated with each other, so that the skin is restored to a normal state as soon as possible. Re-epithelialization is critical at these various stages, with keratinocyte migration serving a central role. Keratinocyte migration is a complex process involving the action of multiple biomolecules.
When the skin is injured, platelets act as a first line defender and immediately secrete various growth factors to promote wound healing, such as Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), etc. These growth factors play an important role in regulating the contraction of transitional keratinocytes in the wound bed.
It would be advantageous to develop an effective skin wound healing agent to promote wound healing.

Examples of the invention
Unless otherwise indicated, the experimental procedures, materials, and conditions used in the examples below were all conducted using conventional experimental procedures, materials, and conditions in the art.
Example 1: cytotoxicity assays
To assess whether scutellarin is cytotoxic in keratinocytes and would stimulate skin cell proliferation, cell viability was analyzed using the MTT assay.
Human HaCaT keratinocytes (purchased from AddexBio corporation, san diego) were cultured in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% fbs, 1% penicillin/streptomycin for 2 days to 80% growth density. The adherent cells at the bottom of the dish were digested with 0.25% trypsin solution to prepare a cell suspension, which was counted and then prepared to a cell concentration of 1X 10 4 The suspensions were inoculated in 96-well plates at a volume of 1000 cells per well, placed in CO 2 Incubator (5% CO) 2 Culturing at 37℃for 24 hours. Then adding scutellarin with different final concentrations shown in figure 2 for treatment, continuously culturing for 24 hours, sucking the culture medium in a 96-well plate, adding an MTT solution with the concentration of 0.5mg/mL, and culturing in an incubator for 4 hours. After the incubation, DMSO solution was added and shaken on a shaker for 15 minutes, absorbance at 570nm was measured to analyze viability of the cells.
As shown in fig. 1, haCaT keratinocytes showed no significant decrease in cell number at concentrations of 0.5-100 μm scutellarin. The results demonstrate that scutellarin does not adversely affect skin cells and that its safety is reliable.
Example 2: keratinocyte scratch test
Inoculation of 5X 10 5 Cells were plated in 12-well plates at 5X 10 cells per well 5 And (3) when the cell fusion monolayer reaches 100%, making scratches with the same width on the cell fusion monolayer in each hole by using a 200 mu L pipette tip to be perpendicular to the hole wall, and taking the time point as the 0 th hour. The cells were washed three times with 1 XPBS, scraped off suspended cell debris was aspirated, serum-free DMEM medium was added, and different drug treatments were then added: cells treated with 10 μm vascular endothelial growth factor VEGF alone served as positive controls, and this concentration of VEGF was able to promote the closure of keratinocyte lesions; to use VEGF (10. Mu.M) and VEGF inhibitor Avastin (2)00 μg/mL) treated cells served as negative control; cells without any drug treatment (with equal volume of DMEM) were used as blank; experiment 1 was performed on cells treated with 3. Mu.M scutellarin alone, and experiment 2 was performed on cells treated with 10. Mu.M VEGF and 3. Mu.M scutellarin. Placing cells into CO 2 Incubator (5% CO) 2 Culturing At 37 ℃) and sampling At0 and 20 hours, photographing, analyzing and quantifying cell coverage by using TScratch software (CSE Lab), and calculating the wound healing rate At20 hours, wherein the calculation method of the wound healing rate is as follows: wound healing rate (%) = (At 0-At 20)/At 20×100%.
As shown in fig. 2A and B, 3 μm scutellarin alone did not promote healing of keratinocyte scratches, whereas scratches of experimental group 2 healed significantly at20 hours and healed significantly faster than other groups, indicating that 3 μm scutellarin enhanced the effect of VEGF on keratinocyte migration.
Since VEGF is highly enriched in the platelet growth factor group (SGC), the scored HaCaT cell monolayer was drug treated in the same manner with the platelet growth factor group: cells treated with SGC alone at a high concentration of 0.5% (v/v) were used as positive controls; cells treated with 0.5% (v/v) SGC and avastin (200. Mu.g/mL) were used as negative controls; cells without any drug treatment (with equal volume of DMEM) were used as blank; experiment 1 was a cell treated with 3. Mu.M scutellarin and a low concentration of 0.1% (v/v) SGC, experiment 2 was a cell treated with 3. Mu.M scutellarin alone, and experiment 3 was a cell treated with a low concentration of 0.1% (v/v) SGC alone.
As shown in fig. 3, the composition of scutellarin and the platelet growth factor group significantly promoted the migration of HaCaT cells in the scratch gap compared to the control group, indicating that scutellarin can promote the effect of the growth factor or the platelet growth factor group on the keratinocyte migration.
The preparation method of the platelet growth factor group comprises the following steps: after taking human whole blood with anticoagulant, the whole blood sample was centrifuged at 3800rpm for 20 minutes at 4 ℃. Whole blood plasma was separated after the first centrifugation. The plasma is then brought to 1250rp at 4℃m centrifugation for 10 min. 2/3 of the supernatant was discarded as platelet poor plasma, and the remaining 1/3 was resuspended, called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). The platelet growth factor group was obtained by adding 10mM EDTA/EGTA protease inhibitor to PRP, removing ferrous ions with a magnetic stent (available from Merck Millipore, berlington, U.S.A.), and stripping the platelets through one freeze-thawing cycle (-80 ℃ for 10 hours and 37 ℃ for 10 minutes). After about 30 minutes of ultraviolet sterilization, the plasma sample was subjected to LabconcoThe cells were lyophilized in a freeze drying system (Labconco, mitsubii) under vacuum for 16 hours and stored at 4℃for use.
Example 3: scutellarin in combination with VEGF or SGC promotes expression of keratinocyte migration related gene matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP 9)
To further confirm the effect of scutellarin in combination with VEGF or SGC on keratinocyte migration, RT-PCR was used to measure the transcript levels of MMP9 genes. First, haCaT cells were prepared to have a cell concentration of 3X 10 5 The individual/mL suspensions were inoculated onto 12-well plates, each well being inoculated with 3X 10 5 Individual cells. Put into CO 2 Incubator (5% CO) 2 Incubation for 24 hours at 37 ℃) followed by addition of different concentrations of drug: the dosing setup was essentially the same as in example 2, except that this example increased the group of cells treated with 1. Mu.M scutellarin and low concentration of 0.1% (v/v) SGC (experimental group 4), and the group of cells treated with 3. Mu.M scutellarin and medium concentration of 0.3% (v/v) SGC (experimental group 5). Culturing was continued for 24 hours after dosing, mRNA was extracted from HaCaT cells, and RT-PCR was performed using primers for MMP 9. The primer sequences were as follows: MMP 9F-primer 5'-GGAGCGAGATCCCTCCAAAAT-3' (SEQ ID NO. 1) and MMP 9R-primer 5'-GGCTGTTGTCATACTTCTCATGG-3' (SEQ ID NO. 2).
As shown in fig. 4, scutellarin significantly promoted VEGF or SGC induced transcript levels of MMP9 genes, with an enhancement of about 130% of the placebo. These results indicate that scutellarin in combination with VEGF or SGC has a significant effect on promoting wound healing by increasing the expression of MMP 9.
Example 4: scutellarin specifically activates vascular endothelial growth factor specific receptor 2 (VEGFR 2) and signal pathway mediated thereby, and plays a role in promoting wound healing
The effect of scutellarin on VEGF-dependent wound healing in a platelet growth factor group was evaluated using western blot experiments. HaCaT cells were seeded in 12-well plates (1.5X10) 5 Cell/well), placed in CO 2 Incubator (5% CO) 2 Culturing at 37℃for 24 hours. Serum-free DMEM was added for starvation for 3 hours, and 0.5% (v/v) SGC, 0.1% (v/v) SGC, 3. Mu.M scutellarin, and a combination of 0.1% (v/v) SGC and 3. Mu.M scutellarin were added, respectively. Samples were collected at0, 5, 10 min, lysed using low concentration lysates (100 mM Tris-Cl pH6.8,8% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 0.2% bromophenol blue, 20% glycerol, 400mM 2-mercaptoethanol), and cell lysates were collected and loaded on an 8% SDS-PAGE gel. Antibodies used for western blotting were: 1:1000 phosphorylated Phospho-VEGFR2 rabbit anti-monoclonal antibody (CST, 2478S), 1:1000 phosphorylated Phospho-p44/42MAPK (Erk 1/2) (CST, 9101S), 1:1000p44/42MAPK (Erk 1/2) (CST, 8544S).
The results are shown in FIGS. 5A-D. Figures 5A and B show that scutellarin in combination with low concentration SGC induced VEGFR2 phosphorylation, wherein the expression level of phosphorylated VEGFR2 in the placebo group (without drug but with equal volume of DMEM) and in the low concentration SGC treated group did not significantly change after 5 minutes, 10 minutes, the expression level of phosphorylated VEGFR2 in the high concentration SGC treated group was about 3-fold after 10 minutes, and the expression level of phosphorylated VEGFR2 in the 0.1% (v/v) SGC in combination with 3 μm scutellarin was about 2.5-fold compared to the positive control (0.5% (v/v) SGC alone). FIGS. 5C and D show that scutellarin in combination with low concentration SGC exhibited induction of Erk phosphorylation downstream of the receptor, wherein the phosphorylated Erk expression level of 0.1% (v/v) SGC in combination with 3. Mu.M scutellarin increased to about 1.5 fold after 10 minutes, as compared to the effect of 0.5% (v/v) SGC induction in the positive control.
Example 5: molecular fitting experiment
Molecular interactions between scutellarin and its analogs and vascular endothelial growth factor were examined using molecular binding software (Molecular Docking, vina, phyMOL). Molecular docking was simulated using PyMOL molecular image analysis software and SwissDock tool to find scutellarin and its analogues: erigeron breviscapus and baicalin can be combined with VEGF. Binding affinity data were obtained from the molecular docking tool SwissDock, detailed steps as follows:
1. the pdb structure file of the target protein VEGF was imported, and VEGF pdb used in the present invention was numbered 3QTK.
2. Preparing a small molecular structure mol2 file of small molecules (scutellarin, scutellarin and baicalin).
3. And uploading pdb and mol2 files on the SwissDock website respectively, and clicking and submitting to obtain the molecular docking score. The following table shows:
the structural interactions between scutellarin and vascular endothelial growth factor are shown in figure 6A. The binding affinity of scutellarin and VEGF protein is between-5.57 and-8.28, which shows that the binding affinity of scutellarin and VEGF protein is strong. The structural interactions of scutellarin analogues, scutellarin and VEGF are shown in figures 6B and C, and the binding affinities are-5.59 to-8.15 and-6.34 to-8.26 respectively, which shows that the binding affinities of scutellarin and scutellarin are also stronger.
