Muscle atrophy is one of the major side effects of the large number of DEX-use, and the weight pairs of control, DEX, and Q-14 modified (Q-14+DEX) mice are shown in FIG. 8, and as can be seen in FIG. 8, the weight of the DEX mice is lower than that of the control mice, indicating that DEX causes weight loss and muscle loss; the weight of the mice in the Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) was higher than that of the mice in the DEX group, indicating that Q-14 significantly improved the DEX-induced weight loss and muscle loss problems.
3.2 experiments on the influence of DEX, Q-14 on skeletal muscle strength in mice
The control group, DEX group, and Q-14 modified group (Q-14+DEX) were tested for their mouse grip. Specifically, the holding power of each group of mice is detected by a holding power measurement experiment using an animal holding power instrument. After 30 minutes each time following dosing, mice were tested for grip every 2 days interval and the grip determination experiments were repeated 3 times. The animal holding power instrument is provided by Jiangsu Sago Biotechnology Co., ltd, and the product model is SANS, SA-417.
The comparison of the mouse holding power of the control group, DEX group and Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) is shown in FIG. 9, and can be seen from FIG. 9: the mouse holding power of the DEX group is lower than that of the control group, which indicates that the DEX can cause the muscle weakness of the mice and the obvious reduction of the mouse holding power; the improvement of the Q-14 group (Q-14+DEX) showed that the holding power of the mice was higher than that of the DEX group, indicating that Q-14 significantly improved the problems of reduced skeletal muscle strength, reduced muscle strength and reduced holding power of the mice caused by DEX. Thus, Q-14 has the effect of improving muscle function and muscle strength, and Q-14 can be used to alleviate DEX-induced decline in muscle function and decline in muscle strength.
3.3 experiments on the Effect of DEX, Q-14 on skeletal muscle loss in mice
Mouse gastrocnemius muscle separation and detection: mice in the control group, the DEX group and the Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) were weighed and treated, then muscles at each part of the mice were precisely isolated, the muscles at each part were rinsed clean with pre-chilled physiological saline, residual water was removed by suction, gastrocnemius was taken, precisely weighed and recorded, and then the ratio of gastrocnemius mass to body weight, i.e., gastrocnemius index, was calculated. The gastrocnemius index was calculated as follows:
gastrocnemius index = mouse gastrocnemius weight g/mouse body weight g x 100%.
The results of comparison of skeletal muscle loss in mice of the control group, DEX group, and Q-14 modified group (Q-14+DEX) are shown in Table 1, and can be seen from Table 1: the difference in the gastrocnemius index of the mice in the DEX group and the control group was significant, and the difference in the gastrocnemius index of the mice in the Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) and the gastrocnemius index of the mice in the DEX group was significant. The gastrocnemius index of mice in the DEX group was lower than that of the control group, indicating that DEX caused skeletal muscle loss in mice; the gastrocnemius index of the mice in the Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) is higher than that of the mice in the DEX group, which indicates that Q-14 can obviously improve the problem of skeletal muscle loss caused by DEX and obviously increase the wet weight of the muscle.

4. Effect of DEX, Q-14 on SIRT1 enzyme Activity experiments
Grouping and administration: a control group, a Q-14 group, a DEX group, a Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+DEX) was set, wherein the control group: 6 mice were given the same volume of physiological saline by oral gavage for 10 days. DEX group: 6 mice, each of which was given DEX at a dose of 25 mg/kg, formulated with 0.5% CMC-Na, and given by intraperitoneal injection, 0.1ml/10g, 1 time a day, with the same volume of physiological saline administered orally by gavage; group Q-14: 6 mice, each of which was dosed with Q-14, Q-14 in Q-14 groups at a dose of 50mg/kg, formulated with 0.5% CMC-Na, and dosed orally 2 times a day at 0.1ml/10 g. Q-14 improvement group (Q-14+dex): 6 mice, each of which was dosed with DEX and Q-14, and the dose of DEX in the Q-14 modified group (Q-14+DEX) was the same as the dose of DEX in the DEX group, and the dose of Q-14 in the Q-14 modified group (Q-14+DEX) was 50mg/kg, formulated with 0.5% CMC-Na, and dosed orally 2 times a day at 0.1ml/10 g.
Experimental method
SIRT1 deacetylase activity was quantified using fluorescence, fluorescence intensity was measured using a SpectraMax M5 microplate reader, the excitation wavelength of fluorescence intensity was 355nm, the emission wavelength was 450 and nm, and concentration was calculated from the standard curve by protein content calibration, operating under the instruction of SIRT1 detection kit (Sigma-Aldrich) kit instructions.
Experimental results
A comparison of SIRT1 enzyme activities of the control group, the Q-14 group, the DEX group, and the Q-14 improved group (Q-14+DEX) is shown in FIG. 10, and can be seen in FIG. 10: the SIRT1 enzyme activity of the Q-14 group is obviously higher than that of the control group, which shows that the Q-14 can obviously enhance the SIRT1 enzyme activity. The SIRT1 enzyme activity of the DEX group was lower than that of the control group, indicating that DEX caused a decrease in SIRT1 enzyme activity. The SIRT1 enzyme activity of the Q-14 improved group (Q-14+DEX) was higher than that of the DEX group, indicating that Q-14 can improve the problem of reduced SIRT1 deacetylase activity caused by DEX. SIRT1 enzyme activity is associated with skeletal muscle atrophy, with higher SIRT1 enzyme activity leading to better resistance to skeletal muscle atrophy. Thus, Q-14 can improve skeletal muscle atrophy induced by DEX by increasing the SIRT1 enzyme activity of the body.
