Description
Three-fruit Shang Kangyan component high-screening method based on intestinal flora metabolic model Technical Field The invention relates to the field of intestinal flora metabolic models, in particular to a three-fruit Shang Kangyan component high-screening method based on an intestinal flora metabolic model. Background The Sanguo decoction is a classical heat-clearing, detoxifying and anti-inflammatory prescription in Tibetan medicine, is composed of three core medicinal materials of myrobalan, fructus terminaliae bellae and phyllanthus emblica, is widely applied to the treatment of various inflammation related diseases such as lung heat, laryngalgia, pestilence and the like in clinic, and has long-term clinical practice verification of anti-inflammatory efficacy. Modern pharmaceutical researches show that the anti-inflammatory activity of the three-fruit soup mainly comes from natural chemical components such as polyphenols, tannins and the like contained in the three-fruit soup, such as gallic acid, corilagin, ellagic acid, myrobalan acid and the like, but the components are only part of complex chemical components of the three-fruit soup, and how to accurately screen out high-activity components which have strong anti-inflammatory activity, definite in-vivo efficacy and development value from a plurality of components is a core problem of modern researches of the three-fruit soup. At present, the existing screening method of the three-fruit Shang Kangyan component mainly adopts a traditional screening system of combining an in-vitro cell model (such as RAW264.7 macrophage model) with an in-vivo animal model, and the core thought is to separate prototype components in three-fruit soup, and screen out high-activity prototype components by detecting the inhibition of components on indexes such as inflammatory factors (TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1 beta, NO and the like). However, the screening method has obvious limitations and cannot be fit with the actual pharmacokinetic process of a human body, wherein the core anti-inflammatory component in the three-fruit soup is polyphenol and tannin compounds, the components have larger molecular weight and limited water solubility/fat solubility, only a small amount of the components can be directly absorbed by small intestine after being orally taken, more than about 70% of the components can enter colon, and the components are converted into small molecule metabolites through the metabolic actions of hydrolysis, decarboxylation, reduction and the like of intestinal flora of the human body, and the metabolites are often the main forms of the anti-inflammatory action in the human body. The existing screening method does not consider metabolic conversion links of intestinal flora, and has two key defects that firstly, the original components with no activity and high activity of metabolic products are easy to miss, so that the screening result is incomplete, secondly, the original components with high activity in vitro and degradation and inactivation in vivo by the intestinal flora are mistakenly used as core development targets, the waste of research and development resources is caused, and the in-vivo efficacy and in-vitro activity of the screened components are disjointed, so that the clinical application requirements are difficult to meet. In addition, the existing screening method only focuses on the direct anti-inflammatory activity of the components, does not consider the effect characteristics of the three-fruit soup compound for realizing indirect anti-inflammatory by adjusting the balance of intestinal flora and repairing intestinal barriers, cannot capture the synergistic activity of the components 'direct anti-inflammatory and indirect anti-inflammatory', and is not matched with the anti-inflammatory characteristics of the three-fruit soup 'multi-component, multi-target and multi-way'. Meanwhile, in the prior art, although a small amount of researches pay attention to the relevance of intestinal flora and traditional Chinese medicine anti-inflammatory (such as the research of regulating the intestinal flora by part of traditional Chinese medicine compositions), a set of special screening technical system aiming at three fruit soups is not formed, the accurate adaptation of an intestinal flora metabolism model and anti-inflammatory activity screening is not realized, a closed loop screening flow of metabolic conversion, layering activity screening, mechanism verification and in vivo confirmation is not established, and the core pain point of 'in vitro activity and in vivo efficacy disjointing and incomplete screening result' in three fruit Shang Kangyan component screening cannot be solved. Therefore, a high screening method of three-fruit Shang Kangyan components is needed, which can simulate the metabolic process of human intestinal canal, give consideration to direct and indirect anti-inflammatory activity and accurately fit the screening result to the clini
