What is Shikonin?

Comfrey is the dry origin of Arnebiaeuchroma (Royle) Johnst. or Arnebiaguttata Bunge., a seasonal herb of the household Boraginaceae. It mostly has naphthoquinones and various other components, and also has chemical components such as shikonin, shikonin, shikonane, shikonin, as well as shikonin polysaccharides. It has a lengthy background of medicinal use in my nation. It is mostly utilized in the therapy of damp macule, purpura, hematuria, stranguria and bloody dysentery, warmth knot bowel irregularity, burns, eczema, erysipelas and more. Modern medical research study has found that comfrey has complicated chemical components and also has a wide variety of medicinal impacts such as anti-tumor, anti-bacterial, anti-virus, anti-HIV, anti-fertility, antipyretic, hemostatic, and hypoglycemic.
Today, the comfrey made use of as medical products is primarily: “soft comfrey”, “difficult comfrey”, as well as “Inner Mongolia comfrey”.
1. Soft comfrey: Uneven long round form, commonly twisted, 7-20cm long, 1-2.5 centimeters in size. The surface is purple-red or purple-brown, and also the skin is loose, in the form of strips and flakes, commonly with more than 10 overlapping layers, which are easy to peel. Residues of stems with noticeable branches at the top. Light-weight, soft and also very easy to damage. The section is uneven, the xylem is tiny, yellow-white or yellow. Gas certain, taste slightly bitter, astringent.
2. Hard comfrey: cone-shaped, twisted, branched, 7-14cm long, 1-2cm in size. The surface area is purplish red or purplish black, harsh with longitudinal lines, and also the skin is slim and also very easy to remove. Hard as well as fragile, very easy to damage. The skin part of the section is dark purple, the wood part is larger, grayish yellow. Minor scent, a little bitter taste.
3. Inner Mongolia comfrey: conical or round, twisted, 6-20cm long, 0.5-4cm in diameter. The origin head is a little thick, with 1 or even more deposits at the top, covered with short bristles. The surface area is purplish red or dark purple, the cortex is slightly thin, as well as the continuous layers are piled, very easy to peel. Difficult and weak, simple to damage. The section is reasonably neat, the skin part is purple red, the wood part is smaller sized, yellowish white. Details gas, astringent preference.

Pharmacological effects of Shikonin

(1) Hypoglycemic result
Comfrey fallen leave remove and comfrey glycan (A, B, C) have obvious hypoglycemic result
( 2) Antibacterial effect.
Comfrey has inhibitory result on Jingke 68-1 virus in examination tube, as well as has repressive impact on Staphylococcus aureus. The anti-parainfluenza infection effect of levoshikonin was studied by hemagglutination response and cytopathic technique, and also the outcomes revealed that it had reduced poisoning within the focus variety made use of in the experiment, as well as had certain in vitro anti-influenza virus activity as well as the capacity to straight eliminate parainfluenza infection. result.
( 3) Effect on blood coagulation
Intraperitoneal shot of shikonin components (shikonin, acetylshikonin) does not impact blood clotting time, however can stop the anticoagulant effect of heparin.
( 4) Anti-tumor impact
Comfrey essence has a particular repressive result on the late phase of DNA synthesis (G2 phase) in Hela cells.
( 5) Anticancer impact
The impact of shikonin on inhibiting proliferation, advertising apoptosis as well as causing cell cycle apprehension of human choriocarcinoma drug-resistant cell line (JAR/MTX) cultured in vitro. Long term, the development inhibition price of choriocarcinoma drug-resistant cells likewise enhanced dramatically.
( 6) Results on hormonal agent secretion
Experiments on the effect of shikonin on the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis function of teenage female rats showed that the serum hormone level of the shikonin group was significantly lower than that of the negative control group, as well as there was no considerable difference compared with the positive control team. It reveals that shikonin can prevent the feature of hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis in rats.
( 7) Antioxidant effect
Some scientists identified the scavenging capability of shikonin on superoxide radical (O2-) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazine radical (DPPH), and also its effect on β-carotene/ linolein Inhibition of acid autoxidation systems. The outcomes showed that shikonin had strong scavenging capability on DPPH as well as O2-, as well as had noticeable repressive effect on β-carotene/ linoleic acid autoxidation system. Solid antioxidant capacity.

Production of Shikonin

1. Induction of callus from comfrey
In 1974, scientists prospered in inducing callus from Sclera sclerophylla. This job began making use of plant cell design to produce shikonin. The research study work with medicinal comfrey in my nation only started in the mid-1980s. Follower Hongxia as well as Zhu Ruxing specifically caused the callus of Comfrey yunnanensis and located that its shikonin material was greater than that of its origins. Li Guofeng et al. generated the callus of Xinjiang Zicao with the highest possible material of energetic ingredients.
 
2. Suspension and also immobilization society of comfrey cells
( 1) Suspension society
Fujita et al. first recommended a two-step technique for suspension society of comfrey cells. Ning Wen et al. performed speculative study and also showed that the cell development curve was level and also S-shaped. After the cells quit growing, shikonin and also its derivatives were formed in huge quantities, and also the dynamic modifications of the two were negatively correlated.
 
( 2) Synchronous extraction
Utilizing some organic solvents to draw out shikonin synchronously throughout the cultivation procedure not only streamlines the splitting up and also filtration of additional metabolites, however additionally decreases the feedback inhibition of the products.
 
( 3) Activator large-scale society of comfrey cells
The Institute of Chemistry and Metallurgy of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has efficiently created a new sort of plant cell bioreactor of “air-lift inner flow semi-cross-flow kind”, and also recognized the reactor cultivation of 100 litres of Xinjiang Zikaia cells. Large-scale growing in reactors is an essential action towards industrial manufacturing of comfrey.
 
( 4) Incapacitated culture innovation
Currently, immobile society has actually become an essential direction in the research study on the manufacturing of additional substances by plant cell culture. Lv Hua et al. incapacitated and also cultured comfrey cells embedded in calcium alginate. After thirty day, the pigment exudation reached 70, while the suspension cells just had 30. If n-hexadecane is utilized for removal at the same time, the pigment secretion can reach 95%. Research studies have actually shown that in the process of debilitated culture, if the tool is changed every 45 days, the cells still have the capacity to generate pigment after 180 days.
 
( 5) Quick proliferation of comfrey seed startings
Utilizing bioengineering ways to directly generate aseptic vaccines and then plant them in the manufacturing areas, this method has low cost and quick results, which is one of the most direct embodiment of the modernization of traditional Chinese medication. The above two methods are commonly accomplished all at once and also complement each other.

Content Determination of Shikonin

(1) Chromatographic problems Silica gel high-efficiency thin-layer plate, the empty plate is first pressed to the front with ethanol-glacial acetic acid (5:0.2) for pretreatment; n-hexane-acetone-chloroform-glacial acetic acid (8:1:0.1:0.1) is Developing representative; placement under natural light.
( 2) Preparation of recommendation material option Precisely evaluate shikonin, deoxyshikonin, acetylshikonin, β, β-dimethylacryloylarkanin in suitable quantities, and also include chloroform to make each ml consisting of 0.1 mg service, as the reference remedy.
( 3) Prep work of example solution Precisely weigh 0.2 g of comfrey root powder, put it in a 50 ml Erlenmeyer flask with a stopper, include 10.0 ml of chloroform, remove by ultrasonic oscillation for 10 min, centrifuge, and the supernatant is made use of as the sample solution.
( 4) Action 1-3 μl of the sample option and the referral substance solution, respectively, and place on the same high-efficiency thin-layer plate (pretreatment), create according to the above chromatographic problems, take it out, dry it, and also scan it according to the thin-layer scanning method, λS =280nm, λR= 400nm, reflective linear scanning; slit 5mm × 0.4 mm; scanning speed as well as paper speed are both 20mm/min.
