Embodiment 1

[0011] Example 1 Inhibitory effect of methyl ferulic acid on the proliferation and collagen synthesis of rat fat storage cell line HSC-T6 cells:

[0012] HSC-T6 cells were cultured in DMEM medium with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken, and the cell concentration was adjusted to 1×10 5 / ml, 100μl per well, inoculated in 96-well cell culture plate. 5% CO at 37°C 2 Cultivate in the incubator for 24 hours, remove the medium, and incubate with the medium containing different concentrations of drugs (the final concentration of methyl ferulic acid is 2.5 μg / ml, 5 μg / ml, 10 μg / ml, 20 μg / ml, 40 μg / ml) For 24 hours, set up a blank control group at the same time, set 5 duplicate wells for each sample, then add 20ul of MTT (5mg / ml) to each well and continue to incubate for 4h, pour out the medium, blot dry, add 200ul of dimethyl sulfoxide to each well After mixing, set an automatic microplate reader (detection wavelength 490nm) to read the opt...

Embodiment 2

[0016] Example 2 Methyl ferulic acid to CCl 4 And the test of the impact of D-Gal on the acute liver injury animal model:

[0017] 1. Drugs and animals

[0018] 1.1 Animals 110 Kunming mice, half male and half male, weighing 22±2g.

[0019] 1.2 Grouping of animals: Randomly divide the animals into 11 groups, 10 animals in each group.

[0020] The first group is the normal animal control group, and the other groups are the model groups. Among them, groups 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 use CCL 4 Modeling, i.e. using CCl 4 Induced acute liver injury in mice; while the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th models were made with D-Gal, that is, D-Gal was used to induce acute liver injury in mice.

[0021] 1.3 Therapeutic drugs

[0022] (1) Bifendate, which is a traditional liver-protecting drug, is a drug approved by SFDA for marketing, and is used as a positive control drug.

[0023] (2) Methyl ferulic acid is an experimental drug to observe its protective effect on acute liver inju...

Embodiment approach

[0025] 2.1 Dose setting

[0026] Group 1 is normal control group, group 2 is CCL 4 Model control group, the seventh group is the D-Gal model control group. Groups 1, 2, and 7 were gavaged with vehicle at a dose of 10ml / kg;

[0027] The 3rd, 8th groups are the bifendate treatment group, dosage is 200mg / kg, as the positive control group of the methyl ferulic acid treatment group;

[0028] The 4th, 5th, 6th groups and the 9th, 10th, 11th groups were the treatment groups of low, medium and high doses of methyl ferulic acid respectively, and the doses were 50mg / kg, 100mg / kg, 200mg / kg respectively.

[0029] 2.2 Administration method

[0030] The above-mentioned groups were administered intragastrically for 2 days according to the dose, once a day. On day 3, groups 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 were treated with 0.5% CCL 4 - Peanut oil is injected intraperitoneally once at a dose of 10ml / kg to create acute CCL 4 Liver injury model: Groups 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 were intraperitoneally ...

Abstract

The invention relates to application of methyl ferulic acid in preparation of medicine for preventing and curing hepatic fibrosis. In vitro cell models prove that the methyl ferulic acid has a remarkable inhibition effect on proliferation and collagen synthesis of rat primary hepatic stellate cells (HSC). Animal tests prove that the methyl ferulic acid has a protecting effect on acute hepatic damage caused by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and D-galactosamine (D-Gal) of mice and can prevent the hepatic fibrosis. Rat models of chemical hepatic fibrosis caused by CCL4 and rat models of immunity hepatic fibrosis caused by bovine serum albumin prove that the methyl ferulic acid has a good therapeutic action on chronic hepatic fibrosis and can be used for preparing the medicine for preventing and curing the hepatic fibrosis alone or in compound mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medicine, in particular to the application of methyl ferulic acid in the preparation of drugs for preventing and treating liver fibrosis. Background technique [0002] Hepatic fibrosis (HF) refers to a pathological change in liver structure and function caused by excessive proliferation and abnormal deposition of extracellular matrix in liver tissue. Almost all chronic liver diseases, including chronic hepatitis B (C) virus, chronic alcoholic and autoimmune liver diseases, etc., experience this pathological process, and with the further development of liver fibrosis, liver cirrhosis will be formed, seriously endangering For human health, it is of great significance to find effective drugs for the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis. [0003] Securidaca inappendiculata Hassk is a climbing shrub of the genus Securidaca inappendiculata Hassk. Its rhizomes are pungent, sweet and bitter in taste, slig...
