Description

Application of herba Sonchi arvensis polysaccharide extract in preventing and treating ulcerative colitis
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of medical medicines, in particular to application of a endive polysaccharide extract in preventing and treating ulcerative colitis.
Background
Digestive system diseases seriously affect the study, work and life of patients. Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract that is easily recurrent and difficult to treat. UC causes inflammation and digestive system disorders, and typical symptoms of UC are abdominal pain, diarrhea and hematochezia. Many reports indicate that the incidence and prevalence of global UC has increased over the last decades. In addition to developed countries, recent studies have shown that the prevalence of UC has also increased in asia, africa and south america. Epidemiological studies have shown that the severity and duration of UC also increases the risk of colon cancer in patients.
At present, the main pathological mechanism of UC is not clear, and the special etiology of UC is related to various factors such as environment, life style, immune function, genes, intestinal flora and the like. Many reports indicate that dysregulation of intestinal microbiota is associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Thus, dysregulation of intestinal microbiota is considered to be the primary pathological mechanism of UC. There is increasing evidence that the microbiota composition in UC is significantly altered compared to healthy people, with reduced biodiversity and species richness. Furthermore, changes in bacterial composition may lead to changes in metabolites, which may play a role in the etiology of UC. Metabonomic analysis found that there was a correlation between bacterial composition and metabolism.
Many studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine can treat diseases by interfering with the homeostasis of the human intestinal flora. Herba Sonchi arvensis (Sonchus arvensis L.) of Sonchus of Compositae (Compositae) is dried whole herb, and can be used as medicine. The endive is perennial herb and is mainly used in the wild of the barren hillsides, beach and roadside of northwest, north China, northeast and other places in China. The endive has rich nutrition and contains rich calcium, magnesium, manganese, titanium, selenium, zinc and other elements. The endive has bitter and cold nature, has the effects of clearing heat and detoxicating, promoting blood circulation by removing blood stasis, promoting diuresis and expelling pus, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, removing blood stasis and detumescence, and is commonly used for treating acute pharyngitis, acute bacillary dysentery, haematuria, hemorrhoids swelling and pain, and the like, and is also eaten as wild vegetable in people. Polysaccharide is an important component of traditional Chinese medicine, it is known to extract over 300 polysaccharide compounds from traditional Chinese medicine, and many plant-derived drugs have been approved by the FDA in the united states. Therefore, research on the pharmacological activity of polysaccharide in traditional Chinese medicine plants has important significance for development and application of polysaccharide.
Many studies have shown that dietary fibers, polysaccharides, can regulate intestinal flora. Polysaccharides are one of four basic substances constituting life, and are natural biological macromolecules widely existing in microorganisms, plants and animals. It has been reported that many polysaccharides and their derivatives have important bioactive functions such as antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-radiation, antitumor, antithrombotic, hypolipidemic, immunoregulatory, and intestinal microbial composition regulating effects. Polysaccharide has been of interest to many researchers because of its remarkable pharmacological activity, small toxic and side effects, easy absorption, and the like. At present, no report on application of the polysaccharide extract of the endives in preventing and treating ulcerative colitis is found at home and abroad.

Embodiment two: research on action of polysaccharide extract of endive on colon tissue of mice
1. Grouping animals
C57BL/6 mice, male, 8 week old, body weight 20+ -2 g, SPF grade, purchased from Peking Vitolith laboratory animal technologies Co. After 7 days of adaptive feeding, the mice were randomly divided into 4 groups of 5 mice each, which were respectively set as a control group (CL), a model group (ML), a drug treatment group (PS), and a positive control drug group (AN).
2. Dosing regimen
From the first day of the experiment, the drug treatment group irrigates the chicory polysaccharide extract every day, and the control group, the model group and the positive control drug group irrigate the stomach every day with an equal volume of physiological saline for 14 consecutive days; the ulcerative colitis model was established using DSS induction at day 15: the mice of the model group, the drug treatment group and the positive control drug group were perfused with 0.2mL of DSS solution (concentration of 0.6 g/mL) from day 15 for seven consecutive days, while the control group was perfused with an equal volume of physiological saline; the group for drug treatment is added with the polysaccharide extract of the endive herb of the intragastric irrigation every day, the mice of the positive control drug group are added with the aspirin of the intragastric irrigation, and the control group and the model group are added with the physiological saline with the same volume of the intragastric irrigation.
3. Experimental method and data processing
3.1 disease Activity index (Disease activity index, DAI) score
Mice were observed daily and recorded for body weight, diet, stool consistency, and hematochezia. Scoring according to DAI scoring criteria, comprehensively scoring according to the weight reduction percentage of animals (the weight is not reduced by 0, the reduction is less than or equal to 5 percent and is more than 0 and is 1 minute, the reduction is less than or equal to 10 percent and is more than 5 percent and is 2 minutes, the reduction is less than or equal to 15 percent and is more than 10 percent and is 3 minutes, the reduction is more than 15 percent and is 4 minutes), the stool viscosity (normal 0, loose stool is 2 minutes and diarrhea is 4 minutes) and the stool bleeding (normal 0 minutes, occult blood positive is 2 minutes and dominant bleeding is 4 minutes), and dividing the total score of 3 results by 3 to obtain the DAI.
Dai= (body mass index + stool consistency index + bleeding index)/3.
3.2 colon Length
After the experiment, each group of mice is sacrificed by cervical dislocation, the whole colon tissue is separated, the colon length of each group of mice is measured by a ruler, and statistical analysis is performed.
3.3 pathological histological observation of the colon
Colon tissue of each group of mice was paraffin-embedded, sectioned and HE stained. And then observed by an optical microscope.
3.4 results
During the course of the experiment, mice were monitored daily for weight loss, diarrhea and bloody stool. The ML, PS and AN mice significantly reduced body weight compared to the control CL group, especially the ML and AN groups (fig. 1 b), whereas the PS mice significantly reduced body weight compared to the ML and AN groups (fig. 1 b).
To investigate whether weight loss is related to food or water intake, water intake and food intake were examined: the water intake and food intake were slightly reduced in the PS group compared to the CL group (fig. 1c and 1 d), while those in the ML and AN groups were significantly reduced (fig. 1c and 1 d). These results indicate that the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis significantly improves DSS-induced weight loss in UC mice.
The DAI scores were significantly higher in ML, FE and AN mice than in the control CL, while the DAI scores were significantly lower in PS mice than in ML and AN (fig. 1 e).
The colon changes in ML and AN mice showed a significant reduction, while those in PS mice showed a significant improvement over those in ML and AN (fig. 1f and 1 g).
The severity of colonic inflammation was further assessed by HE analysis and the pathological changes were significantly improved after administration of the chicory polysaccharide extract to DSS-induced UC mice (fig. 1 h).
These results indicate that the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis can significantly alleviate DSS-induced colitis in mice, and the therapeutic effect of the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis is superior to that of aspirin.
Embodiment III:
1. blood routine detection:
at the end of the experiment, blood samples of each group of mice are collected, after anticoagulation treatment, conventional blood detection is carried out by using a full-automatic blood analyzer, and relevant cells and relevant parameters in the blood are recorded.
2. Analysis of results
Blood routine test results are shown in table 1, and the results show that almost all blood parameters of ML group and AN group mice are significantly different compared with CL group, whereas almost all blood parameters of PS group mice are not significantly different compared with CL group. The result analysis shows that the polysaccharide extract of the endives significantly improves the blood routine parameters of the UC mice induced by DSS.
Embodiment four: immune index modulation
1. Immune organ index determination
Each group of mice was weighed at the end of the experiment, thymus and spleen were stripped and weighed separately. The organ index formula is as follows:
immune organ index (mg/g) =immune organ index body weight (mg)/body weight (g)
ELISA test
At the end of the experiment, the mice were bled from their orbit and then allowed to stand at room temperature for 2h. Serum was obtained by centrifugation according to ELISA kit instructions. IgA, igG, igM levels were detected using an ELISA kit.
3. Results
Fig. 2a shows that there is no significant difference in thymus index between the CL and PS mice, but that the thymus index is significantly reduced in the ML and AN mice compared to the CL and PS mice.
Fig. 2b shows that in terms of spleen index, the spleen index of ML group, AN group, PS group mice is significantly increased compared to CL group, wherein the spleen index of ML group and AN group mice is significantly increased.
Immunoglobulins play an important role in neutralizing pathogens and toxins. The effect of the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis on serum immunoglobulin is shown in FIG. 2c, FIG. 2d and FIG. 2e, respectively. Figure 2d shows a significant reduction in IgG production in AN group AN mice following aspirin treatment, suggesting that aspirin inhibits immunoglobulin IgG secretion. FIG. 2e shows that the IgM levels were significantly higher in the ML group than in the CL, AN and PS groups, indicating that DSS enhanced secretion of immunoglobulin IgM. These results indicate that the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis plays an important role in immunomodulation.
Fifth embodiment: intestinal microbiota analysis
1. Fecal sample collection and treatment
After the experiment is finished, the mice are sacrificed, the abdominal cavity is dissected, the anus is taken out to complete colon tissues of the cecum and placed on an ice tray, the faeces in the cecum are taken out and collected in a freezing tube, and the faeces are immediately placed in liquid nitrogen for preservation, so that bacterial DNA in the faeces is extracted.
2. Extraction and sequencing of bacterial DNA in feces
The cecal content was collected and total genomic DNA was extracted from all samples using CTAB method. The 16S rRNA/18SrRNA/ITS genes of the different regions were amplified. The product was then purified and quantified. Sequence analysis was performed using Uparse software. Sequences with a similarity of 97% or more were assigned to the same OTUs. The representative sequence of each OTU was screened for further annotation. OTUs abundance information is normalized using the sequence number standard corresponding to the sample with the least sequence. Subsequent alpha diversity and beta diversity analyses were all analyzed based on the normalized data.
3. Results
The wien diagram of fig. 3a shows that the CL, ML and PS groups share 536 OTUs, 734 OTUs between the CL and ML groups, 568 OTUs between the CL and PS groups, 734 OTUs between the ML and PS groups.
The PCoA and NMDS analyses of FIG. 3b and 3c indicated that the microbiota composition of the CL, ML and PS groups had a distinct cluster, and the results indicated that the Sonchus arvensis polysaccharide extract induced a significant change in the composition of the intestinal microbiota.
Fig. 3g shows that MRPP and Amova results indicate significant differences in gut microbiota composition between the three groups (P < 0.05).
FIG. 3d shows that the top 10 species with the highest abundance of gate levels were analyzed, with the thick-walled and Bacteroides being the most abundant two gates in all groups.
Notably, in the DSS-induced UC mice group, the abundance of Verrucomicrobiota flora increased significantly, while in the PS group of mice this change was reversed significantly (fig. 3 f). Furthermore, the abundance of actionobacter in PS group mice was significantly enhanced (fig. 3 e). FIG. 3g shows that these findings indicate that the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis can alter the abundance of intestinal flora.
As shown in fig. 4, analyzing species abundance information at the genus level for all group samples, the species abundance cluster map showed that CL group and PS group were mainly clustered together at the genus level, clearly separated from ML group, suggesting that the intestinal flora composition of PS group mice was closer to CL group.
Further t-tests were performed at the genus level, and figures 5 a-c indicated that there was a significant difference in the intestinal flora of mice between groups at the genus level, whereas the abundance of the intestinal flora of the ML group was significantly reversed after treatment with the chicory polysaccharide extract (figures 5 d-g).
Further LEfSe analysis, DSS-induced UC mice were altered in biomarkers following treatment with the Sonchus arvensis polysaccharide extract (FIG. 5 h), which was similar to the t-test results.
In general, DSS induction results in dysbacteriosis of the intestinal microbiota of mice, whereas the chicory polysaccharide extract can regulate dysbacteriosis of the intestinal microbiota and restore the intestinal homeostasis environment.
Example six: intestinal metabolite analysis
1. Fecal sample collection and treatment
After the experiment is finished, the mice are sacrificed, the abdominal cavity is dissected, the anus is taken out to complete colon tissues of the cecum and placed on an ice tray, the faeces in the cecum are taken out and collected in a freezing tube, and the faeces are immediately placed in liquid nitrogen for storage for later use.
2. Non-targeted metabolite assay
The cecal content was assayed for non-targeted metabolites by UHPLC system by appropriate treatment. Chromatographic data were analyzed using MSDIAL3.82 software.
3. Results
Analysis of the PCA plot of FIG. 6a and the PLS-DA plot of FIG. 6b indicated that the composition of the non-targeted metabolites was significantly different for the CL, ML and PS groups, with 97 different metabolites between each group (FIG. 6 c).
Further data analysis found that DSS-induced intestinal metabolite abundance in UC mice was significantly reversed following treatment with the chicory polysaccharide extract (fig. 6d and e). These results indicate that the chicory polysaccharide extract can affect intestinal metabolites of UC mice.
As shown in FIG. 7, the analysis of metabolic pathway enrichment pattern of differential metabolites by KEGG database revealed that biosynthesis of main unsaturated fatty acids and linoleic acid metabolic pathway were affected after treatment of Sonchus arvensis polysaccharide extract.
In order to investigate the effect of the polysaccharide extract of Sonchus arvensis on the metabolites, pearson's correlation analysis was performed on the metabolites, indicating the correlation between the metabolites, as shown in FIG. 8, and further, the correlation between the intestinal microbiota and the metabolites was examined using the Spearman's correlation analysis, as shown in FIG. 9, to elucidate the correlation between the metabolite correlation and the intestinal microbiota.

Note that: * P (P)<0.05,**P<0.01,***P<0.001vs CL; # P<0.05, ## P<0.01, ### P<0.001vsML; p<0.05vs AN
The effect of the invention was evaluated by establishing a DSS-induced acute mouse colitis model. The animal model is commonly used for researching pathological mechanism of ulcerative colitis and evaluating curative effect of medicines. Through a DSS-induced colitis mouse model, we analyzed the general weight profile, DAI score, colon length, colon histopathological changes of mice. The experimental results show that: the polysaccharide extract of the endive can effectively treat and relieve the symptoms of ulcerative colitis: including weight loss, diarrhea, and hematochezia; can further protect the mucosal barrier and repair colon lesions; can regulate intestinal flora composition, promote flora recovery, and regulate intestinal health; can regulate metabolite composition of enteritis mice. Therefore, the herba Sonchi arvensis polysaccharide extract can be used as an effective therapeutic drug for ulcerative colitis, and can be prepared into various dosage forms or pharmaceutical compositions for treating ulcerative colitis.
