AI Article Synopsis

  • Safflower injection underwent isolation and purification using various chromatographic techniques, resulting in the identification of sixteen distinct compounds.
  • The structures of these compounds were determined using spectral data, with some, like scutellarin and kaempferol-3-O-β-sophorose, being isolated for the first time from Safflower.
  • Most of the isolated compounds displayed significant anti-platelet aggregation activity, particularly compounds 2, 3, 9, and 12, while coumalic acid showed no activity.

Article Abstract

The chemical constituents of Safflower injection were isolated and purified by polyamide, silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatographies and preparative HPLC. As a result, sixteen compounds have been isolated. Based on the spectral data analysis, their structures were elucidated as scutellarin (1), kaempferol-3-O-β-rutinoside(2), hydroxysafflor yellow A(3), rutin (4), coumalic acid(5), adenosine(6), syringoside(7), (3E)-4-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-buten-2-one(8), (8Z)-decaene-4, 6-diyne-1-Oβ-D-glucopyranoside(9), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (10), (2E, 8E) -tetradecadiene-4, 6-diyne-1, 12, 14-triol-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (11), kaem-pferol-3-O-β-sophorose (12), uridine (13), roseoside (14), cinnamic acid (15), and kaempferol (16). Compounds 1,2,7,9,11 and 12 were isolated from the Safflower injection for the first time. The anti-platelet aggregation activities of the isolated compounds were assayed. The results indicated all tested compounds exhibited potent activity except for 5, while 2, 3, 9 and 12 showed strong activity against platelet aggregation.

Protective mechanism of safflower yellow injection on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats by activating NLRP3 inflammasome.

BMC Complement Med Ther

January 2025

Institute of Basic Medical Sciences of Xiyuan Hospital, Beijing Key Laboratory of Chinese Materia Pharmacology, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, National Clinical Research Center of Traditional Chinese Medicine for Cardiovascular Diseases, Beijing, China.

Objectives: This study intended to explore whether the protective effect safflower yellow injection (SYI) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats mediated of the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling.

Methods: The I/R model was prepared by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 45 min and then releasing the blood flow for 150 min. 96 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham group, I/R group, Hebeishuang group (HBS), SYI high-dose group (I/R + SYI-H), SYI medium-dose group (I/R + SYI-M) and SYI low-dose group (I/R + SYI-L).

Safflower yellow is an extract of the famous Chinese medicine L, and safflower yellow injection (SYI) is widely used clinically to treat angina pectoris. However, there are few studies on the anti-myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury effect of SYI, and its mechanisms are unclear. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect of SYI on myocardial I/R injury and explore its underlying mechanisms.

Department of Pharmacy, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Henan Province, 450052, China; Henan Engineering Research Center of Clinical Mass Spectrometry for Precision Medicine, Henan Province, 450052, China. Electronic address:

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: XBJ injection is approved by the China Food and Drug Administration for the adjunctive treatment of sepsis, and it is derived from the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription XuefuZhuyu Decoction. It consists of five Chinese herbal extracts: Carthamus tinctorius, Paeonia lactiflora, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Conioselinum anthriscoides 'Chuanxiong' and Angelica sinensis.

Aim Of The Study: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between ferroptosis and acute septic lung injury, and to evaluate the improvement effect of XBJ injection on acute lung injury in sepsis.

Objective: Cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury has negative effects on the brain and can even lead to the occurrence of ischemic stroke. Clinical evidence shows that Danhong injection (DHI) protects the heart and brain following ischemic events. This study investigated the mechanisms and key active compounds underlying the therapeutic effect of DHI against brain damage induced by cardiac I/R injury.
