Background: In the previous study, Puerariae Lobatae Radix (named Gegen in Chinese) water extract attenuated M3 receptor agonist carbachol-induced detrusor contraction after 3-week oral administration in a hypertension-associated OAB (overactive bladder) model. This research aimed to investigate the active ingredients from Gegen water extract against OAB.Methods: Bioassay-guided fractionation was performed by using preparative HPLC for fast isolation of fractions followed by screening their ex vivo activity through carbachol-induced bladder strip contraction assay. Chemicals in each active fraction were analyzed by HPLC-UV. Urine metabolites were quantified by LC-MS/MS after sub-acute administration. Thermal shift assay with the recombinant human M3 receptor protein was performed, and molecular docking analysis was used for molecular modelling of M3 receptor inhibition.Results: Bioassay-guided fractionation results for isolating M3 receptor inhibitors indicated that four compounds were identified as active ingredients of Gegen water extract, and their inhibition potency on carbachol-induced detrusor contraction was ranked in descending order according to their inhibition concentrations as follows: genistein > daidzein > biochanin A >> puerarin. Daidzein in urine reached an ex vivo effective concentration to inhibit detrusor contraction, but others did not. Daidzein concentration-dependently increased the melt temperature (Tm) of recombinant human M3 receptor protein with a positive binding (ΔTm = 2.12 °C at 100 μg/ml). Molecular docking analysis showed that daidzein can potently bind to the ligand binding pocket of the M3 receptor via hydrogen bonding.Conclusion: Puerarin and its derivatives were pro-drugs, and daidzein was their in vivo active form via M3 receptor inhibition for treating OAB. |
