Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) was applied to create the primary liver cancer (PLC) animal model. In the study, the normal group, model group, cyclophosphamide (CTX) group, Cortex Juglandis Mandshuricae (CJM) extract group, myricetin group and myricitrin group were divided. LC-MS/MS technology was applied to determine the metabolites of liver tissue samples from different locations (nodular and non-nodular parts of liver tissue) in each group of rats. Through metabolomics research, the connection and difference of anti-PLC induced by the CJM extract, myricetin and myricitrin was analyzed. The surface of the liver tissues of rats in the model group was rough, dimly colored, inelastic, on which there were scattered gray white cancer nodules and blood stasis points. The number of cancer nodules was significantly reduced, and the degree of cell malignancy was low, but there were some inflammatory cell infiltrations, necrosis area and karyokinesis in the CJM extract group, myricetin group, myricitrin group and CTX group. The result of metabolic research indicated that 45 potential biomarkers of the PLC were found, as gamma-aminoisobutyrate, taurochenodeoxycholate, xanthurenic acid, etc. There were 22 differential metabolites in the CTX group, 16 differential metabolites in the CJM extract group, 14 differential metabolites in the myricetin group, 14 differential metabolites in the myricitrin group. [Display omitted] The LS-MS/MS method was established to study the metabolomics of the PLC. The CJM extract, myricetin, myricitrin have certain effects on the liver cancer. The urea cycle, ammonia recycling, etc. play an important role in treating PLC. The 45 potential biomarkers of the PLC were found, as gamma-aminoisobutyrate, etc. There were differential metabolites in different groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
