This study was designed to clarify the chemical constituents in Yuanhu Zhitong prescription (YHZT), a rapid high performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-QTOF/MS) method was established. Based on the high resolution MS spectra data, fragmentation ion information, reference standards data and literature reports, 51 peaks including 28 alkaloid compounds and 23 coumarin compounds were identified. The chemical constituents in YHZT were rapidly, accurately, systematically analyzed. The results lay a foundation for the quality control of effective compounds of YHZT.

The chemical constituents of Corydalis Rhizoma were identified in the 60% ethanol extract using high performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-QTOF/MS). The stimulation and inhibition effects of Corydalis Rhizoma and its representative compounds (protopine, palmatine, tetrahydropalmatine) on G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), including 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A receptor (5-HT1A), μ opioid receptor (OPRM1), β2 adrenergic receptor (ADRB2), dopamine receptor (D2), acetylcholine receptor (M2) and thromboxane-prostaglandin receptor (TP) were explored using the fluorescence assay of intracellular calcium ion. As a result, 31 compounds were obtained and 28 alkaloid compounds were identified. The results of GPCR experiments showed that Corydalis Rhizoma could activate 5-HT1A, OPRM1, ADRB2 receptors and block D2 receptor. Protopine showed antagonism on D2 and M2 receptors, tetrahydropalmatine could agitate ADRB2 receptor and antagonize D2 and TP receptors, while palmatine showed no significant biological activity on the 6 GPCRs. In conclusion, Corydalis Rhizoma may exert biological activity by multi-components acting on multi-targets.
