Study on the Spectrum-Effect Relationship of the Traditional Effect of Saponins in Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch
Licorice is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been used for a long time in China and still in great use today. The effect of licorice on tonifying spleen and invigorating qi has been proved for thousands of years, but the material basis of its effect is not clear. In this paper, we established...

Licorice is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been used for a long time in China and still in great use today. The effect of licorice on tonifying spleen and invigorating qi has been proved for thousands of years, but the material basis of its effect is not clear. In this paper, we established the fingerprints of 21 batches of licorice collected from different origins in China with High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to identify the common peaks. Its effect of tonifying spleen and invigorating qi was confirmed through a series of praxiology experiments. The spectrum-effect relationship between HPLC fingerprints and its effect of tonifying spleen and invigorating qi of licorice was examined by gray relational analysis and partial least squares regression analysis. Results showed that the effect of licorice on tonifying spleen and invigorating qi resulted from various compounds and peaks. X2–X6 is presumed to be the main pharmacological substance base. This research successfully identified the spectrum-effect relationship between HPLC fingerprints and the effect of licorice on tonifying spleen and invigorating qi. The research method based on the spectrum-effect relationship helps provide new research ideas and strategies for the study of the basis of the medicinal materials and quality control of traditional Chinese medicine. |
