Abstract
3,4-Dicaffeoylquinic acid (3,4-DiCQA) is a dicaffeoylquinic acid that possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, anticancer, hypoglycemic, hypotensive, and hepatoprotective activities. This study developed a rapid and reliable method using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography equipped with linear ion trap-Orbitrap MS to identify the metabolites of 3,4-DiCQA in rat plasma, urine, feces, and tissues. The metabolic profile of 3,4-DiCQA was determined after an oral administration of 200 mg/kg to rats. A strategy of full scan-parent ions list acquisition coupled to diagnostic product ion analysis for screening and identification of target metabolites was used. A total of 67 metabolites, combined with accurate mass measurement, diagnostic ions, neutral losses, and reference standards, were observed and characterized for the first time. The results indicated that hydrolysis, methylation, hydrogenation, hydration, dehydroxylation, dehydrogenation, sulfate conjugation, and glucuronide conjugation were the major metabolic reactions of 3,4-DiCQA in vivo.

Li X, Liu R, Zhao Y, Gao N, Jin X, Gao X, Li T, Liu D. The extract from the roots of Rose odorata sweet var. gigantean (Coll. et Hemsl.) Rehd. et Wils attenuates DSS-induced ulcerative colitis by regulating the Nrf2/NF-κB signaling pathways. RSC Adv 2020; 10:9450-9461.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic non-specific inflammatory bowel disease. Many natural medicines or ethnic drugs have been proven to be effective and beneficial in the treatment of UC. Among these, the root of Rose odorata sweet var. gigantean (Coll. et Hemsl.) Rehd. et Wils. (ROS), a kind of Yi nationality medicine called "GU-GONG-GUO," has been shown to be useful as a therapeutic agent for sputum and diarrhea. However, the effects and mechanisms of ROS extract (ROE) on UC remain relatively unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the protective effects and the underlying mechanisms of ROE on UC. First, we established a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced experimental colitis mouse model and then evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of ROE in vivo. Then, RAW264.7 cells were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the presence or absence of ROE to explore its mechanisms in vitro. It was found that ROE attenuated DSS-induced colon length shortening, body weight loss, and colonic pathological damage. Furthermore, ROE inhibited the activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and malondialdehyde (MDA). Also, ROE decreased several LPS-induced inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in RAW264.7. In addition, ROE inhibited the expression of p-NF-κB, p-IKKα/β, and Keap1 proteins and increased the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins. Our study suggested that ROE prevented DSS-induced colitis though the Nrf2/NF-κB pathway. Overall, it can be concluded that ROE may be a promising and effective agent for UC.

Quality transitivity of Danhong Huayu Koufuye: A study on chemical profiles of medicinal herbs, compound preparation and dosed rat plasma using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Biomed Chromatogr 2020; 34:e4813. [PMID: 32080873 DOI: 10.1002/bmc.4813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2019] [Revised: 01/14/2020] [Accepted: 02/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Danhong Huayu Koufuye (DHK), an effective Chinese medicine preparation, is mainly used for the treatment of blurred vision and sudden blindness caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, as well as the absorption period of central retinal vein occlusion. However, the current quality standard is relatively low, only stipulating the content of protocatechualdehyde. Chemical transitivity is the basis for discovering quality markers and is used in quality process control of Chinese medicines. Herein, the chemical profiles of seven medicinal herbs, DHK and dosed rat plasma were comprehensively analyzed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. As a result, 134 chemical constituents were identified in seven medicinal herbs, including salvianolic acids, diterpene quinones, phenolic acids, phthalides, cyanogenic glycosides, flavonoids and triterpenoid saponins. Among them, 55 chemical constituents were transferred to DHK along with extraction and preparation, and 26 were further absorbed into blood and metabolized to produce 11 metabolites after oral administration. The transitivity of DHK from medicinal herbs to compound preparation and into blood was analyzed for the first time. This article will be valuable to ascertain the quality markers for quality process control and further pharmacokinetic studies.
