We describe a novel biomembrane affinity sample pretreatment technique to quickly screen and preconcentrate active components from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which adopts cell membrane coated silica particles (CMCSPs) as affinity ligands which benefit the biomembrane’s ability to maximize simulation of drug-receptor interactions  in vivo . In this study, the prepared CMCSPs formed by irreversible adsorption of fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) cell membrane on the surface of silica were characterized using different spectroscopic and imaging instruments. Drug binding experiments showed the excellent adsorption rate and adsorption capacity of FGFR4/CMCSPs compared with non-coated silica particles. The FGFR4/CMCSPs were used as solid-phase extraction sorbents to pretreat the TCM  Aconitum szechenyianum Gay . The resultant FGFR4/CMCSPs exhibited good performance. In addition, high selectivity and recognition ability of the FGFR4/CMCSPs were determined by selectivity experiments. Four alkaloid were screened and identified, one of these alkaloid, napellonine, showed favorable anti-tumor activity in preliminary pharmacological verification trials including cell proliferation and molecular docking assays. The proposed cell membrane affinity sample pretreatment method is a reliable, effective and time-saving method for fast screening and enriching active compounds and can be extended to pretreat other TCMs as leading compounds resources.
