As is clear from FIG. 23 and Table 9, only 4 components of apigenin, glycyrrhizic acid, gallic acid and apigenin-7-O-glucuronide were detected in cerebrospinal fluid, and no glycyrrhizin was detected.
Wherein, the gallic acid Tmax is relatively small, the absorption speed is high, and the peak can be reached rapidly after entering the brain; apigenin and glycyrrhizic acid are absorbed relatively slowly; MRT of the 4 components is more than 6.41h and the highest MRT can reach 13.14h; the gallic acid content is highest at 5 min; the glycyrrhizic acid content is relatively low, the absorption speed is maximum in 2 hours, and the glycyrrhizic acid can be detected within 6 hours, so that the residence time of the glycyrrhizic acid in cerebrospinal fluid is long.
However, glycyrrhizin, a flavonoid component, is not detected in cerebrospinal fluid, probably because it binds to glucuronic acid and sulfate bonds in plasma, affecting its penetration through the blood brain barrier; the reduced levels of components in the cerebrospinal fluid compared to plasma are related to the barrier that exists between the blood and the cerebrospinal fluid. The main function of the blood brain barrier is to prevent unnecessary substances from entering the brain through blood, protect brain tissues from toxic substances and maintain the internal environment relatively stable, but the existence of the blood brain barrier is also a major obstacle affecting the therapeutic effect of drugs for central nervous system diseases. Its presence prevents 95% of the drugs from entering brain tissue from the blood, which is a significant cause of failure in many central nervous system drug therapies. The Ruyi zhenbao pill is mainly used for treating nervous system diseases, so that the research on the content of active ingredients in cerebrospinal fluid is important for revealing the pharmacodynamic substance basis of the Ruyi zhenbao pill for treating nervous system diseases.
