[Abstract]
Objective Based on the supramolecular “imprinting template” theory, we developed the coupling strategy of factor rotation method and molecular connectivity index (MCI), systematically analyzed the common material basis and “structure-function” correlation mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for promoting blood circulation and removing stasis, and provided a new paradigm for screening quality markers (Q-Marker) of TCM. Methods UPLC was used to establish the fingerprint of 13 traditional Chinese herbs [Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Danshen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Taoren (Persicae Semen), Mabiancao (Verbenae Herba), Honghua (Carthami Flos), Yanhusuo (Corydalis Rhizoma), Yuejihua (Rosae Chinensis Flos), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix), Yimucao (Leonuri Herba), Sanqi (Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Baishao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, PRA), Chishao (Paeoniae Radix Rubra), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix)] for activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis and three classical compounds [Buyang Huanwu Decoction (補(bǔ)陽(yáng)還五湯, BHD), Taohong Siwu Decoction (桃紅四物湯), Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (血府逐瘀湯)], and 26 “imprinting template” component clusters were divided as structural “material units” by matching frequency method. The factor rotation method was used to reduce the dimension of the component cluster, and six functional “material units” were extracted (the cumulative variance contribution rate was 88.37%). Combined with the normalization score, the comprehensive effect of the drug “material units” was evaluated. The MCI was calculated by TCMSP database, the structural similarity of component clusters was quantified, and the contribution of core components to drug efficacy was verified by an acute blood stasis rat model. Results The “imprinting template” component cluster of traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis could be divided into six functional “material units”, of which the first three functional unit (66.85%) was dominated by flavonoids, terpenoids, and alkaloids. Due to the high abundance of flavonoids, terpenoids and alkaloids, the comprehensive score (2.44) of BHD was significantly better than that of other prescriptions, which confirmed the best fit between its “imprinting template” and the spatial structure of the target. The MCI similarity of flavonoids, terpenoids and alkaloids was 0.988 7, 0.970 1, 0.940 7, and the first moment RSD of 10 reference substances and traditional Chinese medicine group was only 1.794%, which verified their “imprinting template” characteristics. Animal experiments confirmed that functional “material unit” could significantly improve hemorheology (whole blood viscosity decreased significantly in low cut and middle cut, P < 0.01) and coagulation function (APTT prolonged significantly, P < 0.01) in rats with acute blood stasis. BHD, which ranked the highest in the normalized score of “substance unit”, improved hemorheology and coagulation function better than PRA, which reflected the synergistic effect of multi-components. Conclusion This study establishes a four-dimensional analysis system of “individual-structure-function-drug delivery” for the first time, and reveals the core mechanism by which flavonoids, terpenoids and alkaloids play the role of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis through dynamic recognition of the macromolecular “imprinting template”. This study provided a quantitative tool for the quality evaluation and action mode analysis of the complex system of traditional Chinese medicine, and promoted the transformation of the research on traditional Chinese medicine modernization from “single component” to “structure cluster synergy” paradigm.
