In this study, Illumina sequencing platform was applied in sequencing rat pancreas, counting expression of target points, analyzing expression differences among blank group, model group and Huangqi Liuyi decoction group and exploring the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Huangqi Liuyi decoction on type 2 diabetes mellitus. According to the result, 24.25% of these genes belonged to the unknown functional class, which was the largest classification unit according to the classification analysis of genes by eggNOG. The rest were classified as energy conversion, amino acid transport and metabolism, nucleotide transport and metabolism, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, coenzyme transport and metabolism, and lipid transport and metabolism, etc.Huangqi Liuyi decoction may play a therapeutic role in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus through four metabolic pathways, namely environmental information processing, cellular process, organismal system and human diseases according to KEGG enrichment analysis. This study shows that, Huangqi Liuyi decoction can significantly improve the fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin in type 2 diabetic rats.

Huangqi Liuyi Decoction, a famous classical Chinese prescription, shows significant curative effect on diabetes and its complications, in which calycosin-7-glucoside, liquiritin and glycyrrhizic acid are the main components that playing these mentioned pharmacological activity, under the synergistic action of various other ingredients in the decoction. However, there are significant differences in the content of active compounds in Chinese medicinal materials, which mainly due to origin, picking seasons, and processing methods. Hence, the accurate content of the glycosides is the prerequisite for ensuring the pharmacological efficacy.

To investigate the dominant metabolic enzymes of six effective components (astragaloside IV, glycyrrhizic acid, calycosin-glucuronide, formononetin, ononin, calycosin-7-O-β-D- glucoside) of Huangqi Liuyi decoction extract (HQD). Mouse liver microsomes were prepared. The effects of specific inhibitors of CYP450 enzymes on the metabolism of six effective components of HQD were studied using liver microsomal incubation .

The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms underlying the differences in the pharmacokinetics of Huangqi Liuyi decoction extract (HQD) under physiological and pathological conditions. The roles of liver cytochrome P450 metabolic enzymes (Cyp450) and small intestinal transporters were also investigated. The cocktail probe drug method was used to investigate the effects of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and HQD on metabolic enzyme activity.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Huangqi Liuyi decoction extract (HQD) on diabetic nephropathy (DN), and the tissue distribution difference of six main active ingredients of HQD between normal and DN mouse models. DN mice were administered HQD for 12 weeks to investigate its efficacy in the treatment of DN. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass-spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was used to analyze the tissue distribution of the six active ingredients of HQD in normal and DN mice, including astragaloside IV, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, calycosin glucuronide, ononin, formononetin, and glycyrrhizic acid.

Huangqi decoction, also known as Huangqi Liuyi decoction, was first recorded in the prescriptions of the Bureau of Taiping People's Welfare Pharmacy. It comprises astragalus and licorice, which is a commonly used prescription in traditional Chinese medicine for the clinical treatment of chronic liver disease, especially liver cirrhosis. Total astragalus saponins (AST) is the main component of astragalus, and glycyrrhizic acid (GA) is the main component of licorice.
