Ethnopharmacological relevance Shengmai formula (SMF) is a classical traditional Chinese medicine prescription, which is widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases . Our previous studies have demonstrated that some components in SMF can interact with each other through breast cancer resistance protein , sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide , organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 and 1B3. Organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) is highly expressed in kidney, mediating the elimination of many endogenous and exogenous substances. However, the interaction between the main active components in SMF and OAT1 is not clear. Aim of the study This study aimed to investigate the interactions of the major bioactive components in SMF mediated by OAT1. Materials and methods Four main fractions, namely, ginseng total saponins (GTS), ophiopogon total saponins (OTS), ophiopogon total flavonoids (OTF), fructus schisandrae total lignans (STL), and 12 active components, namely, ginsenoside Rg1, Re, Rd and Rb1, ophiopogonin D and Dˊ, methylophiopogonanone A and B, schizandrol A and B, schizandrin A and B, were selected to explore the interactions of SMF with OAT1 using cell and rat models. Results The above four main fractions in SMF all exhibited inhibitory effects on the uptake of 6-carboxyfluorescein (6-CF), a classic substrate of OAT1. Among the 12 main effective components, only ginsenoside Re , Rd, and methylophiopogonanone A showed inhibition of 6-CF uptake. Additionally, we found that schizandrin B was transported by HEK293-OAT1 cells, and schizandrin B uptake was markedly inhibited by GTS, OTS, OTF, ginsenoside Re, Rd, and methylophiopogonanone A. In rats, ginsenoside Re, Rd, and methylophiopogonanone A jointly increased the AUC (0-t) , AUC (0-∞) , and C max of schizandrin B, but they decreased its clearance in plasma and excretion in urine. Conclusions Ginsenoside Re, Rd, and methylophiopogonanone A were the potential inhibitors of OAT1, and may interact with some drugs serving as OAT1 substrates clinically. Schizandrin B was a potential OAT1 substrate, and its OAT1-mediated transport was inhibited by ginsenoside Re, Rd, and methylophiopogonanone A. OAT1-mediated interactions of the main active components in SMF can be regarded as one of the important compatibility mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine preparations.

Ethnopharmacological relevance YiXinShu capsule (YXSC), originally from the classical TCM formula named “Sheng-Mai-San”, has been extensively utilized in clinic for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, there were few reports about the quality assessment of YXSCs both internationally and domestically. Aim of the study The objective was to develop a multi-strategy platform incorporating systematic quantitative fingerprint analysis and antioxidant activity determination, with chemometric analysis and bivariate correlation analysis as the auxiliary approaches, to assess and monitor the quality of YXSCs. Materials and methods Firstly, according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2020 edition), 12 key indicator components from seven herb medicines were quantified by HPLC method. Then, three-dimensional fingerprints comprising five-wavelength fusion fingerprint (FWF-FP), electrochemical fingerprint (EC-FP) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry fingerprint (DSC-FP) were established to assess and monitor YXSCs using systematically quantified fingerprint method (SQFM) and principal component analysis (PCA). Moreover, by integrating the analysis of the three-dimensional fingerprints, the quality of YXSCs from different batches was effectively screened. Finally, the antioxidant activity of this TCM was assessed through DPPH and ABTS methods, and the L-ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacity (AEAC) values were compared to evaluate the antioxidant activities of the two methods. A Partial Least Squares (PLS) model was used to develop the spectrum-activity relationship between FWF-FP and AEAC, and a bivariate correlation analysis (BCA) was used to assess the correlation between FWF-FP and EC-FP. Results The key indexes including tanshinone I, t ol , t oe , A tp , first exothermic peak, and second exothermic peak can differentiate between various batches of YXSCs based on their three-dimensional fingerprint profiles. The integration evaluation results from 42 batches of YXSCs were categorized into 2–5 grades, indicating good quality consistency across different batches. In vitro studies have indicated a significant antioxidant activity capacity of YXSCs. The PLS model revealed that 37 out of the 41 fingerprint peaks exhibited antioxidant activity. The overall trend of BCA was consistent with PLS model results. Conclusion This research presents a scientific and holistic strategy for the quality consistency evaluation of YXSCs, thereby offering an effective approach for the thorough evaluation of TCMs.
