原小檗碱型生物碱干预血管生成活性评价与代谢调控机制研究

Evaluation of angiogenic activity and metabolic regulation mechanism of protoberberine alkaloids

  • 摘要: 原小檗碱型生物碱具有显著的抗肿瘤及血管生成调节活性, 但其干预血管生成的具体效应与代谢调控机制尚未系统阐明。本研究采用超高效液相色谱-四极杆/静电场轨道阱高分辨质谱(UHPLC-Q Exactive Orbitrap HRMS) 鉴定黄连与延胡索中的化学成分谱, 结合鹌鹑胚绒毛尿囊膜(quail chorioallantoic membrane, qCAM) 模型与人脐静脉内皮细胞(human umbilical vein endothelial cells, HUVEC) 增殖实验评价主要原小檗碱型生物碱类成分的抗血管生成效应, 并通过qPCR实验检测血管内皮细胞生长因子受体2 (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, VEGFR2) mRNA水平。进一步通过解吸电喷雾电离-质谱成像(DESI-MSI) 技术对主要抗血管生成成分干预后引起的代谢轮廓改变进行分析, 通过结合网络药理学与分子对接技术对其与血管生成关键靶点互作进行表征并开展“构-效”分析。黄连中共鉴定得到13种生物碱类成分, 延胡索中鉴定得到17种生物碱类成分, 其中均以原小檗碱型生物碱为主, 其中, qCAM模型与HUVEC实验共同表明, 氧化小檗碱抗血管生成活性最为显著。代谢组学结果表明, 氧化小檗碱干预后主要引起D-谷氨酰胺、D-谷氨酸代谢等氨基酸合成与代谢通路改变代谢轮廓, 且引起脂质代谢抑制, 这种由能量与脂质代谢抑制的代谢轮廓异常可能通过影响细胞膜结构(磷脂酸、鞘磷脂、磷脂酰胆碱)、信号传导、氧化应激及炎症反应抑制血管生成。而C-8位置的氧化使氧化小檗碱在与EGFR、JAK2的互作中表现出更低的结合能以及更多的弱相互作用, 从而表现出相对小檗碱更加显著的抗血管生成活性。

     

    Abstract: Protoberberine alkaloids exhibit significant antitumor and angiogenesis-regulating activities, yet their specific effects on angiogenesis intervention and metabolic regulatory mechanisms remain systematically elucidated. In this study, ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole/orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q Exactive Orbitrap HRMS) was employed to identify the chemical composition profiles of Coptidis Rhizoma and Corydalis yanhusuo. The anti-angiogenic effects of the major protoberberine-type alkaloid components were evaluated using the quail chorioallantoic membrane (qCAM) model and human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation assays, while vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) mRNA levels were detected via qPCR experiments. Further analysis was conducted using desorption electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (DESI-MSI) technology to examine the metabolic profile changes induced by the intervention of key anti-angiogenic components. The interaction between these components and critical angiogenesis targets was characterized by integrating network pharmacology with molecular docking technology, followed by a "structure-activity" analysis. A total of 13 alkaloid components were identified in Coptidis Rhizoma, and 17 alkaloid components were identified in Corydalis yanhusuo, with protoberberine-type alkaloids being the predominant type in both. Both the qCAM model and HUVEC experiments demonstrated that oxyberberine exhibited the most significant anti-angiogenic activity. These metabolic abnormalities characterized by suppressed energy and lipid metabolism, may inhibit angiogenesis by affecting cell membrane structure (phosphatidic acid, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine), signal transduction (VEGFR2), oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses. Molecular docking and network pharmacology analyses demonstrated that C-8 oxidation enhances oxyberberine's binding affinity to EGFR and JAK2 through reduced binding energy and increased weak interactions, ultimately conferring superior anti-angiogenic efficacy compared to berberine. These findings systematically elucidate the structure-activity relationship and metabolic basis of protoberberine-type alkaloids in angiogenesis modulation, providing novel insights for anti-angiogenic drug development.
