Metabolomics coupled with SystemsDock reveal the protective effect and the potential active components of Naozhenning granule against traumatic brain injury.

Abstract:

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE:Naozhenning granule (NZN), a widely traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription with a long history of clinical, which is mainly used in the treatment of concussion, cerebral post-traumatic syndrome, consists of Di Huang (Radix of Rehmannia glutinosa (Gaertn.) DC.), Dang Gui (Radix of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels), Chen Pi (Pericarpium of Citrus reticulata Blanco), Dan shen (Radix of Salvia Miltiorrhiza Bunge.), Di Long (Pheretima aspergillum (E. Perrier)), Mu Dan Pi (Cortex of Paeonia suffruticosa Andrews), Suan Zao Ren (Semen of Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), Chuan Xiong (Rhizoma of Ligusticum striatum DC.), Zhu Ru (Phyllostachys nigra (Lodd. Ex Lindl.) Munro), Bai Zi Ren (Semen of Platycladus orientalis (L.) Franco) and Fu Ling (sclerotium of Poria cocos (Schw.)Wolf). AIM OF THE STUDY:This study aimed to unravel the mechanism and material basis of NZN against traumatic brain injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS:In this study, a 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) based metabolomic approach combined with systemsDock was employed to study the protective effect of NZN against traumatic brain injury using a cerebral concussion rat model. The morris water maze test and biochemical indexes were used to evaluate the efficacy of NZN. RESULTS:The results of morris water maze test suggested NZN can improve the spatial learning and memory of model rats, and the superoxide dismutas (SOD) and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) level indicated that the effect of NZN was related with the regulation of oxidative stress. Multivariate analysis revealed that the effect of NZN was related with regulation of 18 brain metabolites, and the corresponding metabolic pathways were further revealed by MetPA analysis. 13 serum absorbed components were found to hit the targets both related with the metabolic regulation and cerebral trauma through systemsDock-aided molecular docking experiments, and these compounds might be served as the active compounds in NZN against cerebral trauma. CONCLUSION:1H-NMR based metabolomics and molecular docking provided the insights for the synergistic mechanisms and the potential active compounds of NZN in treating cerebral trauma. However, the bioactive compounds and their synergistic effect need to be further validated.
