Effects of Yiqi Huoxue Formula (益气活血方) and its Diassembled Components on Cardiac Function and Plasma miRNA Differential Expression in Coronary Heart Disease and Heart Failure Patients with Qi Deficiency and Blood Stasis Syndrome
To explore the effect and the possible mechanism of
Yiqi Huoxue Formula
(益气活血方, YHF) in the treatment of coronary heart disease and heart failure (CHD-HF) with
qi
deficiency and blood stasis syndrome.
Methods
2
A total of 160 CHD-HF patients with
qi
deficiency and blood stasis syndrome were randomly divided into YHF group, Huoxue group, Yiqi group, and control group, with 40 patients in each group. All the groups received standard western medicine, and additionally, YHF granules and placebo were administered in the YHF group and control group. The diassembled components Yiqi granules and Huoxue granules were additionally given to the corresponding Yiqi group and Huoxue group. The granules in all groups were taken orally, half a dose each time, once in the morning and in the evening, for three months. The scores of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes and heart functional class were assessed. Blood was collected for screening of differential miRNA indicators, and pairwise comparison was performed to predict differentially expressed miRNA target genes. GO enrichment analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis of the differentially expressed miRNA target genes were performed further.
Results
2
Except for the dropouts, 33 cases in the control group, 34 cases in the Yiqi group and YHF group each, and 37 cases in the Huoxue group were included for analysis. After treatment, TCM syndrome score significantly decreased, and the cardiac functional class significantly improved in all groups (
P
<0.01). Compared to the control group, the other three groups had significantly improved cardiac functional class, and moreover, the YHF group had significantly lower TCM syndrome score (
P
<0.01 or
P
<0.05). There were significant differences in the pairwise comparisons of Yiqi group, Huoxue group and YHF group regarding the cardiac functional class after treatment (
P
<0.01). Finally, five comparison results were obtained from differentially expressed miRNA screening. For comparison between Yiqi group and the control group, one up-regulated miRNA was found, but no target gene was predicted. For comparison between Huoxue group and the control group, one up-regulated miRNA was found, and 15 target genes were predicted, involving Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt) signaling pathway, and other KEGG pathways. In terms of the comparison between Yiqi group and the control group, four up-regulated genes were obtained, and 65 target genes were predicted, involving mainly mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and tyrosine kinase receptor (ErbB) signaling pathway. When comparing YHF group with Yiqi group, one up-regulated miRNA and 37 predicted target genes were obtained, and calcium pathway and 3', 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) pathway were mainly involved. The comparison of Huoxue group and Yiqi group showed that three miRNA were down-regulated, and 76 predicted target genes were obtained; the mainly involved KEGG pathways were Ras-related protein 1 (Rap1) signaling pathway, circadian rhythm, retinoic acid-inducible gene 1 (RIG-1) signaling pathway, and the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway.
Conclusion
2
The addition of YHF to the standard western medicine can further improve the TCM syndromes and cardiac function in CHD-HF patients with
qi
deficiency and blood stasis, and the underlying mechanism may be related the regulation of MAPK, ErbB, and other signaling pathways.
