Objective: To study the correlation analysis between the HPLC fingerprints of Astragali Radix extracts and the antifatigue effects.
Methods: Three types of extracts of Astragali Radix were obtained and arranged by uniform design for HPLC fingerprint analysis and the antifatigue effect experiment. The correlation analysis between the HPLC fingerprints of Astragali Radix extracts and the antifatigue effects were carried out with orthogonal signal correction-partial least squares (OSC- PLS) method.
Results: The antifatigue activity could be strengthened by chromatographic peaks in the fingerprints of flavonoids and other kinds of ingredients (including saponins), but could be weakened by Astragalus polysaccharides in Astragali Radix. Among total variables, there were 36 variables (including 35 peaks and a variable of Astragalus polysaccharides) that had important contribution to "fingerprint-efficacy" model.
Conclusion: OSC-PLS can remove uncorrelated information between fingerprint and efficacy, simplify the structure of model and improve the interpretative ability of model, and could be a reference method to investigate chromatographic fingerprint-efficacy relationship of complex system of traditional Chinese medicine.

This study aims to establish a rapid and non-destructive method for recognizing the origins and cultivation patterns of Astragali Radix. A hyperspectral imaging system(spectral ranges: 400-1 000 nm, 900-1 700 nm; detection time: 15 s) was used to examine the samples of Astragali Radix with different origins and cultivation patterns. The collected hyperspectral datasets were highly correlated and numerous, which required the establishment of stable and reliable dimension reduction and classification models.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Danggui Buxue Decoction (DBD) is a classic traditional Chinese herbal formulation, composed of Astragali Radix (AR) and Angelica Sinensis Radix (ASR) in a ratio of 5:1. It is a traditional Chinese medicine classic prescription for nourishing Qi and Yin (vital energy and body fluids), and it is effective in treating various clinical diseases. Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is categorized under "thirsting," "edema," and "turbid urine" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a viral infectious disease that can cause infection in pigs of different ages. The condition known as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome poses a serious risk to the world's pig business and results in significant financial losses. Fuzhengjiedu San (FZJDS) is a traditional Chinese medicine compound, the main components include:Radix Isatidis, Radix Astragali and Herba Epimedii.

Rationale: Astragali radix-Salvia miltiorrhiza (AR-SM) is an herb pair with good therapeutic effects and is widely used. In this study, the in vitro and in vivo components of AR-SM were quickly classified and identified based on UHPLC-orbital mass spectrometry. This provided a basis for clarifying the bioactive substances after compatibility of AR and SM.
