  •   Objective  To analyze chemical constituents of compound Maxing Shigan decoction by ultra-high perfor-mance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS).   Methods  The separation was performed on a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 2.5 µm), with a gradient elution applying 0.1% aqueous formic acid solution and 0.1% formic acid acetonitrile as a mobile phase. The column temperature was 40 °C. The flow rate was 0.4 ml/min and the analysis time was 15 min. Mass spectrometry (MS) data were collected in both positive and negative ESI ion modes.   Results  Through UPLC-QTOF/MS analysis and reference validation, a total of 59 chemical components in Maxing Shigan decoction were identified.   Conclusion  In this study, an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS) method was established to identify the chemical components of Maxing Shigan decoction. This method is simple, efficient, sensitive and accurate, and provides a basis for the elucidation of the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism of Maxing Shigan decoction. It can provide data reference for the optimization of the compatibility of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of COVID-19.

  • 新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2型(SARS-CoV-2)引起[1-2]。SARS-CoV-2是冠状病毒科和β冠状病毒属的成员,是影响人类呼吸功能的新冠肺炎大流行的病原体[1, 3-4],因其对公共卫生构成严重威胁而受到全球关注。中医对传染性疾病的认识较早,早在秦汉时期的《黄帝内经》中就记载有“五疫之至,皆相染易,无问大小,病状相似”。数年来,传统中医药在防病治病中积累了丰富的临床经验,开拓了数以万计的中药复方[5]。根据我国中医药出版社在2020年2月出版发行的《新型冠状病毒肺炎中医诊疗手册》,新冠肺炎属中医“瘟疫”范畴,通过分析历代中医药对瘟疫的防治经验,对于新冠肺炎的预防和治疗具有积极作用。

    清肺排毒汤作为国家卫健委、国家中医药管理局推荐在新冠肺炎临床治疗期使用的中药复方,在此次疫情防控中起到关键性的作用,其由麻杏石甘汤、射干麻黄汤、小柴胡汤、五苓散、橘枳姜汤等加减化裁而成[6],方中各味药材在新冠肺炎不同病理过程治疗阶段都发挥重要作用[7-8]。中药复方麻杏石甘汤,始载于张仲景《伤寒杂病论》,书中所述“若汗出喘,无大热者,可与麻黄杏仁石膏甘草汤”。原方由麻黄、杏仁、石膏和甘草四味药配伍而成[9],君药为麻黄,辛苦宣肺、解表平喘;臣药为石膏,辛凉宣泄,君臣配合发散肺经郁热而平喘;佐药为杏仁,宣降肺气,辅助麻黄止咳平喘;使药为甘草,协调诸药[10],主治外感风邪、邪热壅肺证[4, 11-13]。多年以来,以麻杏石甘汤为基础方的各类制剂广泛应用于临床中。近年来,研究学者们在麻杏石甘汤的研究上也取得了众多成果,其具有多种药理活性,包括抗流感病毒活性,改善微血管通透性过高和抑制炎症反应等[14]。袁丽等[15]使用网络药理学初步预测了麻杏石甘汤对新冠肺炎的抗病毒和抗炎作用,并建立了IL-6诱导的大鼠肺上皮Ⅱ型细胞(RLE-6TN)损伤模型,探讨麻杏石甘汤的抗炎活性和可能的作用机制。吴佳等[16]探讨以麻杏石甘汤联合西药对症治疗新型冠状病毒肺炎的临床疗效及不良反应,研究结果表明,加味麻杏石甘汤联合推荐的治疗方案可促进新冠肺炎患者的康复,而且不增加不良反应的风险。

    同化学药相比,中药研究最大的困难在于它是一个复杂体系。明确中药复方的化学成分对中药的药效与作用机制的阐明具有重要意义。本研究利用 UPLC-QTOF/MS技术,系统分析麻杏石甘汤的化学组分,其目的在于揭示麻杏石甘汤中各组方的药理活性与组方原理,为促进传统中医药方剂在新冠肺炎临床实践中提供重要的参考数据。

    • 麻黄的主要有效成分为总生物碱,其具有平喘的功效,麻黄碱不仅是临床常用的生物碱类化合物,并且是麻黄中的标志性成分,其作用于支气管平滑肌并伴有解痉的疗效,以达到止咳平喘的效果。在正离子模式下,13号峰的母离子峰是m/z 166.1210[M+H]+m/z 148.1093为该化合物的主要碎片离子峰,可判断为母离子峰先脱去一分子的H2O而得;得到的碎片离子脱掉一个CH3即可得到m/z 133.0869[M+H-H2O-CH3]+的碎片离子;碎片离子m/z148.1093[M+H-H2O]+进一步脱掉一个CH3NH2,得到碎片离子m/z 117.0602[M+H-H2O-CH5N]+,对照品的二级质谱碎片离子图,如图2所示,同时参考麻黄碱的碎片离子(m/z),根据生物碱类化合物的裂解规律可以推测出该峰为麻黄碱,裂解途径如图3所示。

    • 甘草中成分繁多,黄酮类是其主要成分之一,31号峰在正离子模式下裂解途径如下:其母离子峰m/z 419.1328[M+H]+首先脱去一分子的脱水葡萄糖,得到m/z 257.0831[M+H-C6H10O5]+的一个碎片离子峰;其碎片离子进一步失去一个H2O分子,得到碎片离子m/z 239.0746[M+H-C6H10O5-H2O]+;碎片离子再一次分别脱掉一个CO和C6H4O,产生m/z 211.0743[M+H-C6H10O5-H2O-CO]+m/z 147.0443[M+H-C6H10O5-H2O-C6H4O]+的两种碎片离子峰,在逆狄尔斯-阿尔德反应(RDA)的裂解下,碎片离子峰m/z 257.0831[M+H-C6H10O5]+产生了两种碎片离子,分别是m/z137.0240[M+H-C6H10O5-C8H8O]+m/z119.0495[M+H-C6H10O5-C7H4O3]+,通过参考甘草苷化合物的碎片离子(m/z),对照对照品二级质谱碎片图,如图4所示,由此可以鉴定出该化合物为甘草苷,裂解途径如图5所示。

    • 甘草酸属于三萜皂苷类,在甘草、苦杏仁中都有其成分。在正离子的扫描模式下,43号峰的母离子峰为m/z 823.4118[M+H]+,母离子峰首先脱去一分子的糖醛酸,得到碎片离子m/z 647.3810[M+H-C6H8O6]+,然后又脱去一个糖醛酸,得到碎片离子m/z 471.3449[M+H-2C6H8O6]+,接着又失去一分子的H2O,得到m/z 453.3341[M+H-2C6H8O6-H2O]+的碎片离子峰,本研究参考化合物甘草酸的碎片离子(m/z),以及参照对照品二级质谱碎片图,如图6所示,根据该类化合物的相关裂解规律可以判断为甘草酸,裂解途径如图7所示。

    • 苦杏仁属传统常用中药,苦杏仁苷是苦杏仁中的一种主要成分。在正离子模式下,化合物23的分子式为C20H27NO11,由m/z 458.1649([M+H]+)和m/z 475.1927([M+NH4]+)的两个峰可知,m/z 296.1153处的峰值归因于[M+NH4-Glc]+。将可能的碎片化途径与参考数据进行比较[17-19],并结合ESI(+)模式保留时间与参照对照品二级质谱碎片图(见图8),结果表明化合物23为苦杏仁苷,是苦杏仁中存在的一种化学成分,其他特征碎片以及可能的碎片裂解途径如图9所示。

    • 麻杏石甘汤由麻黄、杏仁、石膏和甘草组方而成,方中麻黄主要的生物碱类化合物具有止咳平喘、镇痛等临床疗效,甘草中的黄酮类成分有明显的抗炎、抗菌、抗肿瘤的功效,此外,方中甘草酸和苦杏仁苷等有效成分均有其平喘、止咳的作用。麻杏石甘汤组方简单,药效显著,在新冠肺炎不同病理过程的治疗阶段都有其身影,但是已有研究对该方的化学成分的深入研究尚浅,因此,明确麻杏石甘汤的主要化学成分对于揭示其组方原理,阐明作用机制与药效物质基础具有一定的参考价值。

      本研究采用 UPLC-QTOF/MS 技术,在短时间内对麻杏石甘汤的化学成分进行了定性分析,一共鉴定出了59种有效的化学成分,该方法分离速度快,分辨率高且分析时间短。采用二级质谱分析验证了麻黄碱等主要成分的质谱碎片裂解规律,为麻杏石甘汤的入血成分的快速鉴定提供方法学基础。本研究为麻杏石甘汤抗新冠肺炎药效物质基础及其作用机制的深入研究奠定基础。
