Metabolomics study of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels on the abnormal uterine bleeding rats by ultra‐performance liquid chromatography–quadrupole–time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry analysis

, Pg, and HCG and the expression of ERα, Erβ, and PR were down-regulated in AUB model and up-regulated by the treatment of AWE. Twenty-one potential biomarkers were eventually identified by multivariate statistical analysis. Study indicated that glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, amino acids, retinol metabolism and primary bile acid biosynthesis were the main related metabolic pathways involved for the treatment of AUB by AWE. The results showed that AWE has potential therapeutic effect on AUB by altering the metabolic aberrations.
