We have previously reported that Trichoderma atroviride, an endophytic fungus isolated from S. miltiorrhiza, promotes S. miltiorrhiza hairy root growth and significantly stimulates the biosynthesis of tanshinones specifically the polysaccharide fraction (PSF). However, this study only focused exclusively on six metabolites whilst ignoring changes to the whole metabolite composition of the S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots. In the present study, the dynamic metabonomic responses of S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots were investigated using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMSn). UHPLC-HRMS typical total ions chromatograms (TICs) of PSF-treated hairy root samples were different from the control. Moreover, the results of principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) indicated that PSF-treated samples were significantly different from the control. Through the analysis of PLS-DA, a total of 114 and 99 differential metabolites were found from the positive and negative models respectively and a total of 33 differential metabolites were identified. Thus, S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots had been induced to regulate the metabolic profiling in response to PSF and the changes of the metabolic profiling contributed to promoting the biosynthesis of tanshinones notably whilst the biosynthesis of phenolic acids were slightly inhibited.
