RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE：To establish HPLC fingerprints of different polar parts of Zhuang medicine Calonyction muricatum ， and to study its spectrum-effect relationship with analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. METHODS ：The total part ，ethyl acetate part，n-butanol part and water part of C. muricatum were prepared. HPLC fingerprints of different polar parts were established by HPLC method combined with the Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatogramtic Fingerprint （2012A），and the common peaks were identified. Using writhing times and ear swelling degree in mice as analgesic and anti-inflammatory indexes ，analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity of different polar parts of C. muricatum were investigated. The correlation of the common peaks of HPLC fingerprint with analgesic and anti-inflammatory indexes was analyzed by grey correlation analysis ，bivariate correlation analysis and partial least square （PLS） method. RESULTS ： There were 11 common peaks for the different polar parts of C. muricatum ，and 5 components were identified by reference comparison，i.e. neochlorogenic acid （peak 3），chlorogenic acid （peak 5）， cryptochlorogenic acid （peak 6）， isochlorogenic acid A （peak 10），isochlorogenic acid C （peak 11）. The grey correlation analysis showed that the correlation between all common peaks and analgesic and anti- inflammatory effects were greater than 0.6 （except the correlation between peak 6 and analgesic effects ），showing correlation relationship ；the correlation of peaks 3，7 and 10 with analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects were all greater than 0.8，which was highly related. Bivariate correlation analysis showed that the correlation of peak 1，3，4，7，9，10，11 with analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects were all greater than 0.6，showing correlation relationship. PLS method showed that peaks 1，3，4，7，9，10，11 contributed greatly to playing an analgesic and anti-inflammatory role. CONCLUSIONS ：HPLC fingerprints of different polar parts of C. muricatum is established and five common peak components were identified. Neochlorogenic acid ，isochlorogenic acid A ，isochlorogenic acid C and chemical components represented by peaks 1，4，7，9 may be the pharmacodynamic substances of C. muricatum to exert analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.
RESUMEN
Objective@#To explore the effects of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) on autophagy in early hypoxic mouse cardiomyocytes and the mechanism in vitro.@*Methods@#The hearts of 120 C57BL/6 mice aged 1-2 days, no matter male or female, were isolated, and then primary cardiomyocytes were cultured and used for the following experiments, the random number table was used for grouping. (1) The cells were divided into normoxia group and hypoxia 3, 6, and 9 h groups, with one well in each group. The cells in normoxia group were routinely cultured (the same below), the cells in hypoxia 3, 6, and 9 h groups were treated with fetal bovine serum-free and glucose-free Dulbecco′ s modified Eagle medium under low oxygen condition in a volume fraction of 1% oxygen, 5% carbon dioxide, and 94% nitrogen for 3, 6, and 9 h, respectively. The protein expressions of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), Beclin-1, TRPV1 were determined with Western botting. (2) The cells were divided into normoxia group and hypoxia group, with two coverslips in each group. The cells in hypoxia group were treated with hypoxia for 6 h as above. The positive expression of TRPV1 was detected by immunofluorescence assay. (3) The cells were divided into 4 groups, with one well in each group. The cells in simple hypoxia group were treated with hypoxia for 6 h as above, and the cells in hypoxia+ 0.1 μmol/L capsaicin group, hypoxia+ 1.0 μmol/L capsaicin group, and hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group were respectively treated with 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin for 30 min before hypoxia for 6 h. The protein expressions of LC3, Beclin-1, and TRPV1 were detected by Western blotting. (4) The cells were divided into 5 groups, with 5 wells in each group. The cells in hypoxia group were treated with hypoxia for 6 h as above, the cells in hypoxia+ chloroquine group, hypoxia+ capsaicin group, and hypoxia+ capsaicin+ chloroquine group were treated with hypoxia for 6 h after being cultured with 50 μmol/L chloroquine, 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin, and 50 μmol/L chloroquine+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin for 30 min, respectively. Viability of cells was detected by cell counting kit 8 assay. (5) The cells were divided into simple hypoxia group and hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group, with one well in each group. The cells in hypoxia group were treated with hypoxia for 6 h as above, the cells in hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group were treated with 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin for 30 minutes and then with hypoxia for 6 h. The protein expressions of lysosomal associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) and LAMP-2 were detected by Western blotting. Each experiment was repeated for 3 or 5 times. Data were processed with one-way analysis of variance, least significant difference t test, and Bonferroni correction.@*Results@#(1) Compared with those of normoxia group, the protein expressions of LC3, Beclin-1, and TRPV1 were significantly increased in cardiomyocytes of hypoxia 3, 6, and 9 h groups (t3 h=4.891, 5.890, 4.928; t6 h=9.790, 6.750, 10.590; t9 h=6.948, 6.764, 5.049, P<0.05 or P<0.01), which of hypoxia 6 h group were the highest (1.08±0.05, 1.12±0.10, 0.953±0.071, respectively). (2) The density of TRPV1 in cell membrane and inside the cardiomyocytes in hypoxia group was significantly increased with lump-like distribution, and the expression of TRPV1 was higher than that in normoxia group. (3) Compared with those of simple hypoxia group, the protein expression of Beclin-1 in cardiomyocytes of hypoxia+ 0.1 μmol/L capsaicin group was increased (t=10.488, P<0.01), while the protein expressions of LC3 and TRPV1 were increased without statistically significant differences (t=4.372, 3.026, P>0.05); the protein expressions of LC3, TRPV1, and Beclin-1 in cardiomyocytes of hypoxia+ 1.0 μmol/L capsaicin group and hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group were significantly increased (t=15.505, 5.773, 13.430; 20.915, 8.054, 16.384; P<0.05 or P<0.01), which of hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group were the highest (2.33±0.09, 1.34±0.07, 1.246±0.053, respectively). (4) Compared with 0.585±0.045 in normoxia group, the cardiomyocyte viability in hypoxia group was significantly decreased (0.471±0.037, t=4.365, P<0.05). Compared with that in hypoxia group, the cardiomyocyte viability in hypoxia+ chloroquine group was further decreased (0.350±0.023, t=6.216, P<0.01), while 0.564±0.047 in hypoxia+ capsaicin group was significantly increased (t=3.489, P<0.05). Compared with that in hypoxia+ chloroquine group, the cardiomyocyte viability in hypoxia+ capsaicin+ chloroquine group did not significantly change (0.364±0.050, t=0.545, P>0.05). (5) Compared with 0.99±0.04 and 0.54±0.04 in simple hypoxia group, the protein expressions of LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 in hypoxia+ 10.0 μmol/L capsaicin group were significantly increased (1.49±0.06, 0.81±0.05, t=12.550, 7.442, P<0.01).@*Conclusions@#TRPV1 can further promote the expression of autophagy-related proteins in hypoxic cardiomyocytes through autophagy-lysosomal pathway, enhance autophagy activity, and improve autophagic flow for alleviating early hypoxic cardiomyocyte injury.
