Screening of the active Ingredients in Huanglian Jiedu decoction through amide bond-Immobilized magnetic nanoparticle-assisted cell membrane chromatography. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:1087404. [PMID: 36642988 PMCID: PMC9837740 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1087404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The Huanglian Jiedu decoction (HLJDD) is a Chinese herbal formula that exerts neuroprotective effects by alleviating oxidative stress injuries and may potentially be prescribed for treating Alzheimer's disease; however, its active ingredients have not yet been identified. Cell membrane chromatography is a high-throughput method for screening active ingredients, but traditional cell membrane chromatography requires multiple centrifugation steps, which affects its separation efficiency. Magnetic nanoparticles are unparalleled in solid-liquid separation and can overcome the shortcomings of traditional cell membrane chromatography. Methods: In this study, the neuroprotective effects of the components of HLJDD were screened through a novel magnetic nanoparticle-assisted cell membrane chromatography method. Magnetic nanoparticles and cell membranes were stably immobilized by amide bonds. Magnetic bead (MB)-immobilized cell membranes of HT-22 cells were incubated with the HLJDD extract to isolate specific binding components. The specific binding components were then identified by ultraperformance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-Orbitrap Fusion Tribrid MS after solid-phase extraction. The bioactivity of these components was analyzed in an HT-22 cellular model of glutamate-induced injury. Results and Discussion: The preparation method of the composite of cell membrane and MBs has the advantages of simple preparation and no introduction of toxic organic reagents. MBs not only provide support for cell membranes, but also greatly improve the separation efficiency compared with traditional cell membrane chromatography. Fifteen of these components were found to specifically bind to the cell membranes, and seven of them were confirmed to reduce varying degrees of glutamate-induced toxicity in HT-22 cells. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the amide bond-based immobilization of magnetic nanoparticles on cell membranes, along with solid-phase extraction and UPLC, is an effective method for isolating and discovering the bioactive components of traditional Chinese medicines.

Abstract
Natural products (NPs) are an important source of bioactive compounds. Considering their complex matrix effects, the development of suitable methodologies for the fast identification and analysis of active substances from NPs played a significant role in controlling their quality and discovering new drugs. In recent years, the technology of immobilized biomembrane has attracted increasing attention, due to its peculiarities such as multi-target efficiency, accuracy and/or time-saving compared with traditional activity-guided separation and ligand fishing methods. This article first provides a systematic review of the latest advances in screening technologies based on biomembrane in the field of NPs. It includes detailed discussions of these technologies, including cell membrane chromatography, artificial membrane chromatography, cell membrane fishing, living cell fishing methods, and their applications in screening various active molecules from NPs. Their limitations and future development prospects were further discussed.

J Pharm Biomed Anal 2021; 206:114384. [PMID: 34607203 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2021.114384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
The genus Uncaria belongs to the family of Rubiaceae, which contains approximately 34 species. It has been widely used as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in China to treat hypertension, fevers, headaches, gastrointestinal illness, epilepsy, wounds, and ulcers. Uncaria rhynchophylla. (Miq.) Miq. ex Hvail.(URM) and Uncaria hirsuta Havil.(UHH) are mainly used as remedies for hypertension, which both belong to the resource of "Gou-teng" in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. However, the authentic antihypertensive components of Uncaria still have not been fully elucidated until now. In this work, we firstly explored and compared the vasorelaxation effect of URM and UHH on the isolated rat mesenteric artery ring. Then, the variations of metabolite profiles between URM and UHH samples were investigated by UHPLC/Q-Orbitrap-MS, and 16 different metabolites have been found through multivariate statistical analysis. Further, the potential vasodilative compounds which include corynoxeine, isocorynoxeine, isorhynchophylline, rhynchophylline, hirsuteine and hirsutine were screened through the correlation analysis between metabolites and anti-hypertension activities. And the relaxation effects of the six compounds on the mesenteric artery have verified. The results indicated that metabolomics combined with correlation analysis could be effective strategies to rapid explore the active compounds from TCM.

Immobilization of cell membrane onto a glucose-Zn-based porous coordination polymer and its application to rapid screening of potentially active compounds from Vaccinium corymbosum L. leaves. Mikrochim Acta 2020; 187:630. [PMID: 33125573 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-020-04612-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
A novel glucose-Zn-based porous coordination polymer (PCP) was selected as a carrier of cell membranes (CMs) to fabricate CM-coated PCP (CMPCP) for rapid screening of potentially active compounds from natural products. The cell disruption and the amount of maximum CMs adsorbed on PCP were optimized according to the amount of immobilized protein. This new kind of matrix exhibited good reproducibility and stability, and was applied for fishing potentially active compounds from the extracts of Vaccinium corymbosum L. leaves (VCL). Using LC-MS/MS, chlorogenic acid and quercetin were identified as the potentially active compounds through comparison of normal and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-modeled CMPCP. Our results suggested that the proposed approach based on CMPCP was environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and convenient in terms of green porous material, stable protein loading capacity, and accessible operation process. The developed method could provide a promising platform for efficient drug discovery from natural product resources.Graphical abstract.
