In order to unveil the potentially effective compounds, a rapid ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) method was established to identify prototype compounds and their metabolites from XFZYD in rats’ serum.Methods: The serum from rats after intragastric administration of XFZYD aqueous extract was analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS method. The prototype compounds and their metabolites were identified by comparison with the reference standards and tentatively characterized by comprehensively analyzing the retention time, MS data, characteristic MS fragmentation pattern and retrieving literatures.Results: A total of 175 compounds(24 prototype compounds and 151 metabolites) were identified and tentatively characterized. The metabolic pathways of prototype compounds in vivo were also summarized, including glucuronidation, hydrolyzation, sulfation, demethylation, and hydroxylation, and so on.Conclusion: In this study, a UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique was developed to analyze prototype compounds and their metabolites from XFZYD in serum, which would provide the evidence for further studying the effective compounds of XFZYD.展开更多

A 22-year-old woman, with a complain of reduced visual acuity of the right eye for 4 days, presented with blurred vision and inferior visual field defect at the time of visit. Acupuncture combined with herbal medication of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction was applied for the patient. Main acupoints included Jingming (BL1), Qiuhou (EX-HN7), Sizhukong (TE23), Yuyao (EX-HN3), Sibai (ST2), Fengchi (GB20), Hegu (LI4), Guangming (GB37) and Taichong (LR3). The needles were remained for 30 min in each session, which was given once daily for 10 days. The modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (Semen Juglandis [10 g], Flos Carthami [10 g], Rhizoma Chuanxiong [10 g], Radix Paeoniae Rubra [10 g], Radix Rehmanniae [15 g], Radix Angelicae Sinensis [10 g], Radix Bupleuri [10 g], Fructus Aurantii [5 g], Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae Praeparata cum Melle [6 g], Fructus Crataegi [20 g], Endothelium Corneum Gigeriae Galli [10 g], Scorpio [5 g], Herba Leonuri [15 g], Radix Astragali [35 g] and Ramulus Cinnamomi [10 g]) was applied one dose daily for 7 days. After 7 days of treatment, the visual acuity of the patient was increased from 0.04 to 0.6 in the right eye with spectacles, the retinal fundus edema disappeared and the inferior vision field defect relieved. With acupuncture treatment for another 10 days, it was observed that the visual acuity of the patient's right eye was improved and the inferior vision field defect reduced. There was no symptom recurrence and the visual acuities in both eyes of the patient were 1.0 with spectacles till the latest follow-up. This therapy provided a new idea and approach to treat cilioretinal artery occlusion.展开更多
