目的:探讨参苓白术散对脾虚湿盛证型腹泻型肠易激综合征(IBS-D)疗效机制及IBS-D潜在生物标志物。方法:入组28例健康人为对照组,28例脾虚湿盛证型IBS-D为治疗组,治疗组给予参苓白术散,连续2周;采集对照组,治疗前后两组的血浆,三者两两比较;评估治疗前后两组的BSFS、IBS-SSS积分、IBS-QOL量表、HAMD和HAMA变化以及筛选血浆中差异代谢物,分析差异代谢物相关性和显著富集差异代谢物。结果:治疗后IBS-SSS总分、BSFS、腹胀程度、腹痛频率、腹痛程度、IBS-QOL显著降低;对生活的影响度,排便满意度,HAMA,HAMD均低于治疗前;与对照组对比,治疗前有24种差异代谢物,治疗后有47种差异代谢物,通过韦恩图、差异代谢物相关性分析及KEGG富集分析,α-酮戊二酸、乙酰乙酸、柠檬酸、中康酸4种代谢物被认为是IBS-D的潜在生物标志物,此外乙酰乙酸、柠檬酸、中康酸为下调,并且三者间呈正相关。与治疗前比较时,观察到有19种差异代谢物;治疗后差异代谢物主要富集在去甲吗啡、腺苷、富马酸3个代谢物,其次治疗后的α-酮戊二酸、柠檬酸、中康酸均低于治疗前。结论:IBS-D的发病机制可能与能量代谢异常有关,参苓白术散则改善能量代谢以及调节腺苷、去甲吗啡、富马酸代谢到达防治脾虚湿盛证型IBS-D疗效。 Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the treatment mechanism of ShenlingBaizhu Powder for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) with spleen deficiency and ex-cessive dampness syndrome, as well as potential IBS-D biomarkers. Method: The control group con-sisted of 28 healthy people, while the treatment group comprised 28 patients with spleen deficien-cy and excessive dampness syndrome (IBS-D). Two consecutive weeks of ShenlingBaizhu Powder were administered to the treatment group. Collect plasma from the control group as well as before and after treatment, and compare them to each other. The BSFS, IBS-SSS score, IBS-QOL scale, HAMD, and HAMA changes were examined before and after treatment, and differential metabolites in plasma were screened to examine the association between differential metabolites and the sig-nificant enrichment of differential metabolites. Result: The IBS-SSS total score, BSFS, degree of ab-dominal distension, frequency of abdominal pain, degree of abdominal pain, and IBS-QOL were sig-nificantly reduced following treatment. The impact on life, defecation satisfaction, HAMA, and HAMD were all reduced after therapy compared to before. Before therapy, there were 24 different metab-olites compared to the control group, whereas there were 47 different metabolites after treatment. Four metabolites—alpha-ketoglutaric acid, acetoacetate, citric acid, and mesaconic acid—were identified as possible biomarkers for IBS-D using a Venn diagram, differential metabolite correla-tion analysis, and KEGG enrichment analysis. Additionally, acetoacetate, citric acid, and mesaconic acid are down-regulated, and the three have a positive association. Compared to before treatment, 19 differential metabolites were identified; the differential metabolites after treatment were pri-marily enriched with three metabolites: Normorphine, adenosine, and fumaric acid. Second, the levels of alpha-ketoglutaric acid, citric acid, and mesaconic acid were lower after therapy than be-fore treatment. Conclusion: Abnormal energy metabolism may be connected to the pathophysiology of IBS-D. ShenlingBaizhu Powder promotes energy metabolism and modulates adenosine, normor-phine, and fumaric acid metabolism to prevent and treat IBS-D with spleen deficiency and excessive dampness syndrome.

治疗组:脾虚湿盛证型IBS-D予以参苓白术散:人参15 g;炒白术15 g;茯苓15 g;炙甘草10 g;山药15 g;白扁豆15 g;莲子肉15 g;薏苡仁20 g;砂仁10 g;桔梗10 g (由四川新绿色药业科技发展股份有限公司提供),具体用法:开水冲服,一次1格,一日3次(早、午、晚饭后1小时内服用),连续服用14天。
对照组:符合健康人群筛选标准及排除标准,收集受试者清晨空腹血浆。
本研究使用的主要疗效指标是BSFS和IBS-SSS,其中IBS-SSS量表各单项有腹痛程度、腹痛频率、腹胀程度、排便满意度、对生活的影响度。次要疗效指标包括肠易激惹综合征–生命质量量表(Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Quality of Life, IBS-QOL)、汉密尔顿抑郁量表(Hamilton Depression Scale, HAMD)和汉密尔顿焦虑量表(Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety, HAMA)。步骤:BSFS、IBS-SSS量表、IBS-QOL、HAMD和HAMA评估在用药前进行,并在用药后两周后重复进行。在本研究中,治疗组:治疗前标记为SA,治疗后标记为SB;对照组标记为HC。血浆样本取自三组:对照组、SA组和SB组。
使用R版本3.6.3和Python版本3.7进行临床数据分析。在进行分组比较时,采用卡方检验来分析无序分类数据;另一方面,非参数检验用于检查有序分类数据。对于定量数据,用平均值 ± 标准差来描述数据。如果数据服从正态分布且方差相等,则采用t检验;当存在不均匀分布和不均匀方差时,适合使用修正t检验。如果数据不符合标准正态分布,建议采用非参数秩和检验。配对t检验用于进行组内比较。P值小于0.05表示观察到的差异具有统计显着性。
在脾虚湿盛证型IBS-D组(见表1),治疗后IBS-SSS总分、BSFS、腹胀程度、腹痛频率、腹痛程度、IBS-QOL均显著优于治疗前(P < 0.05),但对生活的影响度,排便满意度,HAMA,HAMD,经t检验,P值 > 0.05,无统计学上显著性差异;但治疗后对生活的影响度,排便满意度,HAMA,HAMD的平均值 ± 标准差均低于治疗前的平均值 ± 标准差。

表1. 脾虚湿盛证型IBS-D组内前后比较
图1示,在正离子和负离子模式下,三组比较对SA与HC、SB与HC和SA与SB可以观察到主成分分析图(Principal component analysis, PCA)表现出更大程度的重叠,这表明PCA无法更好地区分组间差异。偏最小二乘法判别分析(Partial Least Squares Discrimination Analysis, PLS-DA)用于简化和降低数据的维度,图2见SA和SB分别与HC对比时,发现正、负离子模式下R2Y值均大于Q2Y值;同样,在SA与SB比较,正、负离子模式下R2Y值均大于Q2Y值。为了判断模型的好坏,我们采用了PLS-DA排序检验图。在三个比较对中,即SA与HC、SB与HC、SA与SB,图3可以观察到R2均大于Q2;此外,Q2的回归线与Y轴截距均小于零。这结果表明该模型没有出现“过拟合”,表明该模型的构建是准确的。

该研究使用基于PLS-DA模型的单变量和多变量统计分析来寻找差异代谢物筛选的重要参数VIP (Variable Importance in the Projection)、FC (Fold Change)和P。筛选条件设置为:VIP > 1、FC > 1.5、P < 0.05。分析结果如图4。治疗组的前后两组比较时,观察到有19种差异代谢物,其中正离子模式下12个,负离子模式下7个。同样,治疗前与对照组比较中,有24种差异代谢物,正离子模式下12个,负离子模式下12个。治疗后与对照组相比,有47种差异代谢物,正离子模式下26个,负离子模式下21个。
根据维恩图(如图5),两组交叉点中的14种代谢物(见表2)被认为是IBS-D的潜在生物标志物,并且治疗后与对照组中的33种特定代谢物被认为是参苓白术散疗效机制潜在靶点。

根据差异代谢物两两之间的皮尔逊相关系数,可知治疗前中N-(9-氧代癸基)乙酰胺、N-去甲基曲马多、大麻素合成类似物、D-棉子糖之间互相为正相关;香草醛与油酰乙醇酰胺、α-酮戊二酸、硬脂酰胺之间呈正相关;硬脂酰乙醇酰胺与硬脂酰胺、α-酮戊二酸、香草醛、油酰乙醇酰胺之间呈负相关;连苯三酚与氨乙基膦酸为正相关;柠檬酸、2-糠酸、中康酸、δ-核糖-1,4-内酯之间互相为正相关;乙酰乙酸与2-糠酸、柠檬酸、δ-核糖-1,4-内酯之间呈正相关。治疗后发现11,12-二羟基二十碳三烯酸、tetranor-12R-羟基二十碳四烯酸、tetranor-12S-羟基二十碳四烯酸三者之间互为正相关,(±)8-羟基二十碳五烯酸和15(S)-氢过氧二十碳四烯酸呈正相关,O-去甲基文拉法辛和N-去甲基文拉法辛为正相关,香草醛与油酰乙醇酰胺、α-酮戊二酸之间呈正相关,硬脂酰乙醇酰胺与香草醛、油酰乙醇酰胺之间为负相关,中康酸、柠檬酸、2-糠酸、δ-核糖-1,4-内酯四者之间呈正相关,乙酰乙酸与2-糠酸、柠檬酸、中康酸、δ-核糖-1,4-内酯之间为正相关,前列腺素A2、tetranor-12R-羟基二十碳四烯酸、8(9)-二羟基二十碳三烯酸的化合物三者之间呈正相关。
如图6、表3所示,与对照组比较时,SA组中戊糖和葡萄糖醛酸相互转化、乙醛酸和二羧酸代谢、柠檬酸循环(TCA循环)、丁酸代谢、抗坏血酸和醛二酸代谢、丙氨酸、天冬氨酸和谷氨酸代谢、丙酸代谢显著富集,其中与α-酮戊二酸、乙酰乙酸;丙二酸甲酯相关。SB组中戊糖和葡萄糖醛酸相互转化、乙醛酸和二羧酸代谢、药物代谢–细胞色素P450、TCA循环、丁酸代谢、抗坏血酸和醛二酸代谢、丙氨酸、天冬氨酸和谷氨酸代谢、碳代谢显著富集,与α-酮戊二酸、去甲吗啡、柠檬酸;中康酸相关;由此可知IBS-D的发病机制可能与α-酮戊二酸、乙酰乙酸、柠檬酸;中康酸下调有关,同时治疗前相比,治疗后的血管平滑肌收缩、鞘脂信号通路、肾素分泌、帕金森病、吗啡成瘾、药物代谢–细胞色素P450、cGMP-PKG信号通路、酒精中毒、丙酮酸代谢、氧化磷酸化、烟酸和烟酰胺代谢显著富集,与去甲吗啡、腺苷、富马酸相关。结合治疗后与对照组比较,可知参苓白术散的疗效主要与去甲吗啡、腺苷上调有关。

如图7可见,相比治疗前,治疗后的α-酮戊二酸、柠檬酸、中康酸的中位线均低于治疗前。

根据其临床表现,认为IBS-D符合中医腹泻、腹痛的分类,在临床上常见脾虚湿盛证 [
目前对IBS-D发病机制的认识尚有限,一致认为肠道黏膜屏障功能障碍、胃肠动力异常、内脏高敏感性、能量代谢异常、脑–肠–微生物轴等均与其发生相关。《素问·至真要大论》:“诸湿肿满,皆属于脾”,脾虚失于运化,水谷精微布散失常,聚集成为湿邪。而在中医视角认为脾胃乃气血生化之源,是能量的源泉。从现代医学上,能量代谢主要通过糖酵解、三羧酸循环(TCA循环)和呼吸链三个途径产生ATP,其中三羧酸循环是主要产生能量途径。柠檬酸是一种有机酸,作为TCA循环的起始物质,通过一系列的酶催化反应,最终转化为二氧化碳和水,产生能量。这个过程需要许多代谢物的共同协助完成,如中康酸是TCA循环中的一个中间产物,参与能量代谢过程中,它还通过氧化反应转化为柠檬酸,使得TCA循环周而复始;又如α-酮戊二酸也是TCA循环中的一个关键中间产物,通过氧化代谢方式产生能量。此外在能量代谢过程中,葡萄糖供应不足时,开始将脂肪分解为酮体作为替代能源,乙酰乙酸是酮体的过程中的一个中间产物,在肝脏转化为β-羟基丁酸或乙醇酮,作为能量供应维持生物体正常功能。α-酮戊二酸还具有抗氧化和抗炎作用,调节细胞内的氧化还原状态和抑制炎症反应,可以促进伤口愈合反应 [
参苓白术散干预后,发现去甲吗啡差异代谢物显著上调。去甲吗啡是一种阿片类镇痛药,由去甲基化过程在体内形成;作用于中枢神经系统中的阿片受体,具有一定的镇痛作用;其次它与药物代谢–细胞色素P450代谢通路相关,最新发现IBS患者的药物代谢研究主要与1期代谢有关,尤其细胞色素P450(CYP450)代谢 [
综上所述,参苓白术散对脾虚湿盛型IBS-D疗效显著;有助于改善患者的腹泻、腹痛等临床症状;此外,基于代谢组学发现能量代谢异常可能是IBS-D的发病机制,与α-酮戊二酸、乙酰乙酸、柠檬酸、中康酸下调相关;去甲吗啡和腺苷的上调为参苓白术散治疗脾虚湿盛型IBS-D的疗效提供新的临床证据。
