目的 对黄精Polygonati Rhizoma蜜炙炮制工艺进行筛选,对其蜜炙前后体内外活性进行评价。方法 采用正交试验考察加蜜量、蒸炙时间和蒸炙次数对蜜炙过程的影响,采用电子眼技术从外在角度评价黄精蜜炙后的颜色变化,选取醇溶性浸出物含量、多糖含量结合蜜炙黄精饮片的性状评分进行组合加权评分,以综合评分作为指标,优选出蜜炙黄精的最佳炮制工艺参数;采用铁还原力实验、1,1-二苯基-2-三硝基苯肼(DPPH)自由基、超氧阴离子自由基和羟基自由基清除法对体外抗氧化活性进行评价;建立脾虚小鼠模型,评价蜜炙黄精对脾虚小鼠的调节作用。结果 蜜炙黄精的最佳炮制工艺参数为蜂蜜(中蜜)用量为黄精用量的25%,蒸炙5次,每次3 h;最佳工艺的色度为L* 42.400~42.900,a* 8.400~8.600,b* 18.300~19.900,E*ab 46.900~47.800;体外活性评价显示,蜜炙黄精、生黄精水提液及其对应水溶性多糖均有一定的铁还原能力,并能够清除DPPH自由基、超氧阴离子及羟基自由基,其中,蜜炙黄精抗氧化活性显著优于生黄精,蜜炙黄精多糖活性最优。体内活性研究表明,与脾虚小鼠模型组相比,蜜炙黄精干预后小鼠体质量及胸腺、脾脏指数及脾脏病理损伤均不同程度恢复;脾虚小鼠血清中胃动素、白细胞介素-1β分泌量显著升高(P<0.05);肝脏中氧化酶谷胱甘肽、过氧化氢酶及超氧化物歧化酶含量均有一定程度恢复(P<0.05),丙二醛含量显著降低(P<0.05)。其中,蜜炙黄精对脾虚小鼠调节作用优于生品黄精,以蜜炙黄精多糖调节作用最佳。结论 筛选的黄精蜜炙炮制工艺稳定、可行;蜜炙黄精具有抗氧化活性和调节脾虚作用,可作为一种潜在的抗氧化剂和免疫调节剂;为黄精蜜炙系列中药、保健品、食品开发提供理论基础。

[Abstract]
Objective Td to optimize the honey-frying process of Huangjing (Polygonati Rhizoma) and evaluate the in vitro and in vivo activities before and after honey-frying. Methods An orthogonal experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of honey amount, steaming time, and steaming frequency on the honey-frying process. An electronic eye technology was used to evaluate the color change of honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma from an external perspective. The optimal honey-frying parameters were determined by a combination weighted score based on the content of alcohol-soluble extracts, polysaccharides, and the sensory evaluation of honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma decoction pieces. The antioxidant activity in vitro was assessed using the ferric reducing antioxidant power assay, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, superoxide anion radical scavenging assay, and hydroxyl radical scavenging assay. Additionally, a spleen-deficiency mouse model was established to evaluate the regulatory effect of honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma on spleen-deficient mice. Results The optimal honey-frying parameters were 25% honey (medium honey) by weight of Polygonati Rhizoma steaming five times for 3 h. The optimal chroma of L*, a*, b*and E*ab for the process were in the ranges of 42.400—42.900, 8.400—8.600, 18.300—19.900, and 46.900—47.800, respectively. The activity tests in vitro showed that both honey-fried and raw Polygonati Rhizoma water extracts, as well as their corresponding water-soluble polysaccharides, had certain iron-reducing abilities and scavenging effects on DPPH radicals, superoxide anions, and hydroxyl radicals. The antioxidant activity of honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma was significantly higher than that of raw Polygonati Rhizoma, with honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma polysaccharides showing the best antioxidant activity. The activity tests in vivo demonstrated that compared to the model group, spleen-deficient mice intervened with honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma showed recovery in body weight, thymus and spleen indices, and spleen pathological damage. Serum levels of motilin and interleukin-1β increased (P < 0.05), and the contents of glutathione, catalase, and superoxide dismutase in the liver were partially restored (P < 0.05), while malonaldehyde content significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma showed superior regulatory effects on spleen-deficient mice compared to the raw Polygonati Rhizoma, with honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma polysaccharides exhibiting the best regulatory effect. Conclusion The optimized honey-frying process for Polygonati Rhizoma is stable and feasible. Honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma demonstrates antioxidant activity and regulatory effects on spleen deficiency, indicating its potential as an antioxidant and immunomodulatory agent. This study provides a theoretical basis for the development of honey-fried Polygonati Rhizoma-based traditional Chinese medicine, health products and foods.
