Abstract
Introduction: Yangxinshi tablet (YXST) is a effective traditional Chinese medicine in treating cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure and myocardial infarction.
Objectives: This study aims to develop a method for screening thrombin inhibitors from YXST using an online immobilized enzyme microreactor (IMER) based on capillary electrophoresis (CE).
Materials and methods: Thrombin (THR) was immobilized on the capillary's inner wall using polydopamine (PDA). The chromogenic substrate S-2238 was employed to assess thrombin (THR) activity and kinetic parameters. The stability and repeatability of the constructed thrombin-immobilized enzyme microreactor (THR-IMER) were evaluated over 40 runs, maintaining 85% of initial activity. The Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) for THR was determined to be 11.98 mM. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and inhibition constant (Ki) for argatroban on THR were calculated. Ten compounds in YXST were screened for THR inhibitory potency using the THR-IMER.
Results: Salvianolic acid B and caffeic acid were identified as potential THR inhibitors in YXST, with inhibition rates at 200 μg/mL of 55.06 ± 6.70% and 31.88 ± 4.79%, respectively, aligning with microplate reader assay results. Molecular docking analysis confirmed their interactions with key THR residues, verifying their inhibitory activity.
Conclusion: The CE-based THR-IMER method was successfully developed for screening thrombin inhibitors from YXST, offering a reliable approach for identifying potential therapeutic compounds.
期刊介绍：
Phytochemical Analysis is devoted to the publication of original articles concerning the development, improvement, validation and/or extension of application of analytical methodology in the plant sciences. The spectrum of coverage is broad, encompassing methods and techniques relevant to the detection (including bio-screening), extraction, separation, purification, identification and quantification of compounds in plant biochemistry, plant cellular and molecular biology, plant biotechnology, the food sciences, agriculture and horticulture. The Journal publishes papers describing significant novelty in the analysis of whole plants (including algae), plant cells, tissues and organs, plant-derived extracts and plant products (including those which have been partially or completely refined for use in the food, agrochemical, pharmaceutical and related industries). All forms of physical, chemical, biochemical, spectroscopic, radiometric, electrometric, chromatographic, metabolomic and chemometric investigations of plant products (monomeric species as well as polymeric molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) are included within the remit of the Journal. Papers dealing with novel methods relating to areas such as data handling/ data mining in plant sciences will also be welcomed.
