Mechanisms affecting the biopharmacological properties of saffron active ingredients based on anti-inflammatory activity

To explore the mechanisms affecting the biopharmacological properties of the active components of saffron. Ultrasonic extraction technique was applied to extract the active components from safflower materials and combined with molecular docking technique to screen four safflower anti-inflammatory active components, naiophenol-3-0-rutinoside, kaempferol-3-O-glucoside, quercetin and lignan. In order to understand the mechanism of the influence of its biopharmaceutical properties, the changes of the solubility and permeability parameters of the anti-inflammatory active components of safflower were obtained by using the classical shaking bottle method and the body enteric irrigation method. The compound environment had a great influence on the solubility of single active ingredient. The calculated results of the dose number of all ingredients were greater than 1, and the solubility properties were all high solubility. The absorption parameters and osmotic coefficients of kaempferol-3-O-glucoside and lignan varied insignificantly under different concentration conditions, while each osmotic coefficient of kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside and quercetin showed a positive proportional decreasing trend. In addition, the osmotic coefficients of the three components except kaempferol-3-O-glucoside did not change with environmental changes, and the overall anti-inflammatory active ingredient absorption mechanisms included both passive diffusion and active transport. The two biopharmaceutical properties of the solubility and permeability of the active ingredients of Safflower can be changed under the influence of the application environment and drug concentration. In the pharmaceutical process, the preparation means can be optimized from this aspect to achieve the purpose of improving the clinical efficacy of Safflower anti-inflammatory drugs.
