Overview

Background: San-ao decoction (SAD) has been widely used in Chinese medicine against respiratory diseases, such as asthma and rhinallergosis. The bioactive compounds for such pharmacological action remain unknown.
Methods: We developed a methodology to isolate the bioactive compounds of SAD. The assay involved the immobilization of beta 2-adrenoceptor ( -AR) onto magnetic fine particles, the capture of target compounds by the immobilized receptor, the identification of the receptor bound compounds by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry.
Results: Vicenin, shaftoside, isoshaftoside, liquiritin apioside and isoliquiritin apioside were identified as -AR ligands in SAD extract. The binding of these compounds to -AR occurred on serine, serine and phenylalanine of the receptor.
Conclusions: The developed methodology has high stability and specificity for recognizing and isolating target compounds. It is an alternative method for rapidly screening bioactive compounds of immobilized receptor from Chinese prescriptions.
