Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing podophyllophyll lignans, in particular to a method for converting podophyllotoxin into podophyllic acid and picropodophyllin. The present invention also relates to the separation of podophyllophyllic acid and podophyllin from a biotransformation matrix The bitterness method belongs to the field of biopharmaceuticals. Background technique
[0002] Podophyllotoxin (Podophyllotoxin) is a natural active lead compound isolated from podophyllum plants with anti-tumor effect. It has a unique molecular structure, with four chiral centers, a trans-lactone ring and C-1 position. Axial contiguous aryl substituent groups. Podophyllotoxin disrupts the formation of tubulin and microtubules in mitotic cells, stops cell mitosis in M phase, inhibits normal division of tumor cells, and exerts anti-tumor effects. However, it has strong side effects, such as water solubility. Poor sex and low bioavailability limit its...
