ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Danqi Tongmai tablet (DQTM), a combination of salvianolic acids (SA) and panax notoginsenosides (PNS), is now in phase II clinical trial developed for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanisms of its protective effects through regulating endogenous metabolites remain unclear.PURPOSE:
The purpose of this study was to explore the protective effects of DQTM on acute myocardial ischemia rats by comprehensive metabolomics profiling. STUDYDESIGN:
The rats were divided into three groups sham-operating, acute myocardial ischemia (AMI) and DQTM groups. The plasma and heart were collected and profiled by LC-MS based metabolomics and lipidomics. Based on the identified differential metabolites, the pathway analysis results were obtained and further validated using the network pharmacology approach.METHODS:
The AMI model was induced by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. The metabolomics and lipidomics profiling were based on two established LC-QTOF/MS analysis methods. The raw data were processed using XCMS Online, then the differential metabolites with nonparametric t-test p value less than 0.05 were selected and identified using HMDB and METLIN. The pathway analysis was conducted using MetaboAnalyst and validated with the predicted network results obtained by BATMAN-TCM.RESULTS:
The metabolomics and lipidomics profiles of plasma and heart in response to AMI and DQTM were significantly different. The AMI operation had a serious influence on metabolites in heart ischemia region, while DQTM had a greater impact on lipids in heart non-ischemia region. A total of 151 differential metabolites were identified, including mainly amino acids and fatty acids. Multiple metabolic pathways were disturbed after AMI and could be restored by DQTM, of which arachidonic acid metabolism was further validated with the predicted results of network pharmacology.CONCLUSION:
The protective effects of DQTM on acute myocardial ischemia rats could be achieved through the regulation of multiple metabolic pathways.Palavras-chave
