Abstract
Alismatis rhizoma is a traditional Chinese medicine. Studies have demonstrated that Alismatis rhizoma also has therapeutic effects on metabolic syndrome. However, the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism are still unclear. First, UHPLC/Q-Orbitrap MS was used to detect the chemical components of the Alismatis rhizoma extract, and 31 triterpenoids and 2 sesquiterpenes were preliminarily identified. Then, to investigate the mechanism of the Alismatis rhizoma extract on metabolic syndrome, a mouse model of metabolic syndrome induced by high-fructose drinks was established. The results of serum biochemical analysis showed that the levels of TG, TC, LDL-C, and UA after the Alismatis rhizoma extract treatment were markedly decreased. 1H-NMR was used to conduct non-targeted metabolomics studies. A total of 20 differential metabolites were associated with high-fructose–induced metabolic syndrome, which were mainly correlated with 11 metabolic pathways. Moreover, UHPLC/Q-Orbitrap MS lipidomics analysis found that a total of 53 differential lipids were screened out. The results showed that Alismatis rhizoma extract mainly reduces the synthesis of glycerophospholipid and ceramide and improves the secretion of bile acid. This study shows that the Alismatis rhizoma extract can treat metabolic syndrome mainly by inhibiting energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and regulating bile acid to reduce phospholipid content.
