Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the application with the application number 202210955910.X, the application date of August 10, 2022, and the invention title "A Class of Polyhydroxycyclohexane Derivatives and Their Preparation Methods and Applications". Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to the technical field of analysis of active components of marine fungi, and specifically relates to derivatives with a gabosine and chlorogentisyl alcohol hybrid skeleton extracted from the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5 and their applications. Background Art

[0003] Compared with terrestrial microorganisms, marine microorganisms can tolerate extreme conditions unique to the ocean, such as high salt, high pressure, low oxygen, and low light. The specificity of the living environment leads to the diversity of marine microorganisms in terms of species, gene composition, and ecological functions. The particularity of the marine environment combined with the progress of marine microorganism resource acquisition technology has brought unprecedented opportunities to the research of natural drug source compounds from marine microorganisms.

[0004] Marine fungi among marine microorganisms are a rich source of active secondary metabolites. 70-80% of the secondary metabolites of marine fungi have biological activities, including small molecule lactone compounds; mycotoxins; new substances with inhibitory activity on the central nervous system; 1-dodecanol, unsaturated hydrocarbons, acids, esters; lipopeptide antibiotics that can inhibit fungal viruses in plants and humans and act on new targets for fungal cell wall synthesis. Discovering natural products with specific structural types from marine fungi is of great significance for the research and development of marine drugs.

[0005] β-glucuronidase (GUS) is an important class of hydrolases produced by gut microbiota, which can catalyze the hydrolysis of glucuronide conjugates to generate the corresponding aglycones. In the human body, GUS distributed in the intestine can also catalyze the hydrolysis of glucuronides of various drugs (such as indomethacin, diclofenac, and the active metabolite of irinotecan, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin) and endogenous sex hormones. The released aglycones can be reabsorbed by the intestine, thus forming a bimodal phenomenon in pharmacokinetics. It is worth noting that this process may cause serious gastrointestinal adverse reactions. For example, GUS can catalyze the hydrolysis of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin-O-glucuronide (SN-38G) to generate SN-38, a product with strong cytotoxic effects. The accumulation of the latter in the intestine can cause intestinal mucosal shedding and lead to serious adverse reactions such as severe delayed diarrhea. Therefore, the development of highly efficient and safe GUS inhibitors is of great significance for alleviating lethal diarrhea caused by drugs such as irinotecan and indomethacin (Weng Zimiao, Lv Shanshan, Ge Guangbo, Wang Ping, Hou Jie, Progress in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Research Progress of β-Glucuronidase Inhibitors Produced by Intestinal Bacteria, 2018, 42(03)).

[0006] Currently, there is little research on the chemical constituents of the genus Epicoccum. Hao Baocong et al. isolated (4R*,5R*,6S*)-4,5-dihydroxy-6-(6'-methylsalicyloyloxy)-2-methoxymethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, (4R*,5R*,6S*)-4,5-dihydroxy-6-(6'-methylsalicyloyloxy)-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, (4R,5R,6S)-4,5-dihydroxy-6-(6'-methylsalicyloyloxy)-2-hydroxymethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, (-)-gabosine E, theobroxide, 3-chlorogentisyl alcohol, and 3-hydroxybenzyl alcohol from an endophytic fungus Epicoccum sorghinum of Taraxacum mongolicum (Hao Baocong, Zheng Yaoyao, Chen Xu, Chen Qiuxia, Ji Ruonan, Chen Min, Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica, Study on Secondary Metabolites of an Endophytic Fungus Epicoccum sorghinum 1-2 of Taraxacum mongolicum, 2022, 57(07)).

[0007] Yuan Chao et al. studied the chemical constituents of an endophytic fungus Epicoccum nigrum 14one isolated from the lichen Leptogium masiaticum, and identified them as one alkaloid compound fusaricide, seven benzofuran compounds epicoccone B, 4,6-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-7-methyl-1,3-dihydroisobenzofuran, 5-methyl-epicoccone B, 3,6,7-trihydroxy-5-methoxy-4-methylisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one, 3-methoxyepicoccone B, 2,3,4-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylbenzyl-alcohol, isoochracinic acid, and three epicoccolide compounds epicocconigrones A, epicoccolide B, epicocconigrones B. Among them, the alkaloid fusaricide and epicoccolide compounds have strong antibacterial activities. Among them, the alkaloid fusaricide has good in vitro inhibitory activity against lung cancer cell M109 (Yuan Chao, Guo Yuhua, Zhang Yingbo, Hu Xuan, Wang Dan, Yu Fulai, Li Gang, China Journal of Chinese Materia Medica, Study on Secondary Metabolites of an Endophytic Fungus Epicoccum nigrum 14one, 2019, 44(18), 4021-4025).

[0008] However, so far, no literature has reported the isolation of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine compounds with anti-GUS enzyme from fungi of the genus Epicoccum. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The object of the present invention is to extract natural active substances with medicinal value from marine fungi of the genus Epicoccum.

[0010] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0011] Twenty-five compounds were isolated from the fermentation products of the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5. Through structure identification, the 25 compounds are polyhydroxycyclohexane derivatives, belonging to chlorogentisylalcohol derivatives (with the structure of 2-chloro-6-(hydroxymethyl)benzene-1,4-diol), gabosine derivatives (with the structure of 4,5,6-trihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one), and derivatives with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine. The specific structural formulas are as shown in Figure 1 and are numbered 1 to 25 respectively.

[0012] The fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5 was isolated from a large marine plant in the hydrothermal vent sediment of Guishan Island, Taiwan Province, China, and the preservation number is: CGMCC 3.20238.

[0013] By consulting databases and literature, the present invention identified 19 of the above 25 compounds as new compounds. Therefore, the present invention provides a new class of chlorospirogentianol derivatives, namely derivatives with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine, and the structural formulas are as shown in any one of Formula (9), (16), (17), corresponding to Compounds 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17 respectively.

[0014]

[0015] The present invention also provides a method for isolating and extracting the above new compounds from the fermentation products of the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5, but the preparation method of the above compounds in the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0016] The method for extracting the derivative with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine from the fermentation products includes the following steps:

[0017] (1) Activate the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5 and inoculate it into a liquid medium for fermentation culture;

[0018] (2) After the fermentation culture is completed, the mycelium and the fermentation broth are separated. The mycelium is extracted in an organic solvent, and the extract is separated. The extract is concentrated and suspended in distilled water to obtain an aqueous suspension. Then, the aqueous suspension is extracted with ethyl acetate or n-butanol to obtain extract A; after the fermentation broth is stirred with diatomaceous earth, it is extracted by refluxing with ethyl acetate or n-butanol to obtain extract B;

[0019] (3) The extract A or extract B is concentrated and then separated by normal-phase silica gel column chromatography. Gradient elution is carried out successively with dichloromethane / methanol mixed solutions with volume ratios of 100:1, 50:1, 45:1, 40:1, 35:1, 30:1, 25:1, 20:1, 15:1, and 10:1. The fractions eluted with the dichloromethane / methanol mixed solution with a volume ratio of 10:1 are collected, and then reverse-phase silica gel column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography separation are carried out to obtain the derivative.

[0020] In step (1), the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5 is fermented and cultured.

[0021] The fungus Epicoccum sorghinum GST-5 is a fungus, and a conventional PDA liquid medium or wort medium can be used for fermentation and culture. To increase the yield and provide sufficient nutrients for the growth and metabolism of microorganisms, preferably, based on 1 L of volume, the liquid medium includes the following raw materials: 1-5 g of starch, 10-20 g of bran, 3-15 g of yeast extract, KH 2 PO 4 1-8 g, 0.1-0.8 g of MgSO 4 ·7H 2 O, and the balance is water;

[0022] Alternatively, based on 1 L of volume, the liquid medium includes the following raw materials: 200-600 g of potato, 2-10 g of peptone, 1-5 g of yeast extract, 5-20 g of glucose, and the balance is water; the initial pH value of the culture solution is 6.0-7.0;

[0023] Alternatively, based on 1 L of volume, the liquid medium includes the following raw materials: 10-40 g of sucrose, 5-20 g of corn flour, 1-4 g of NaNO 3 1, 1-4 g of yeast extract, 0.2-0.8 g of KH 2 PO 4 0.2-1 g of MgSO 4 ·7H 2 O, 0.2-1 g of KCl, 0.001-0.005 g of FeSO 4 0.001-0.005 g, and the balance is water;

[0024] Alternatively, per liter of volume, the liquid culture medium comprises the following raw materials: 20 - 30 g of malt extract powder, 15 - 20 g of glucose, 1 - 2 g of casein peptone, and the balance is water.

[0025] The conditions for fermentation culture are static culture at 20 - 30 °C for 10 - 40 days. The static culture method means no shake flask culture.

[0026] Preferably, the temperature for fermentation culture is 22 - 26 °C. More preferably, it is cultured at 25 °C for 20 days, and the yield of the derivative with a chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton is the highest under this condition.

[0027] In step (2), the mycelium and the fermentation broth are separated, and the derivative with a chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton can be extracted and separated from both the mycelium and the fermentation broth.

[0028] Among them, when obtaining the derivative with a chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton from the mycelium, the mycelium is soaked in an organic solvent for 7 - 14 days, and the mycelium is fully broken walled to effectively dissolve the intracellular substances. The organic solvent is one or two of methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate, and acetone.

[0029] In step (3), the separation and purification method is: subjecting the extract to normal-phase silica gel column chromatography separation, and then subjecting the obtained fractions to recrystallization, reverse-phase silica gel column chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography separation. Through multiple steps of separation and purification, a derivative with a chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton with a relatively high purity can be obtained.

[0030] Preferably, the fraction is subjected to reverse-phase silica gel column chromatography and gradient eluted successively with methanol / water mixtures at volume ratios of 1:9, 2:8, 3:7, 4:6, 5:5, 6:4, 7:3, 8:2, and 9:1. Each gradient is eluted 5 times and numbered 1-45 successively. The fractions numbered 1-3 are combined into sub-component 1, fractions 4-5 are combined into sub-component 2, fractions 14-17 are combined into sub-component 6, fractions 18-25 are combined into sub-component 7, fractions 26-28 are combined into sub-component 8, and fractions 38-39 are combined into sub-component 12. Subsequently, separation is performed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Sub-component 7 is eluted with a methanol / water mixture at a volume ratio of 42%. The peaks with retention times of 18.2 minutes, 24.4 minutes, 26.9 minutes, and 22.3 minutes are compounds 9, 11, 12, and 10 with the structure shown in formula (9). Sub-component 8 is eluted with an acetonitrile / water mixture at a volume ratio of 18%. The peaks with retention times of 23.3 minutes and 26.3 minutes are compounds 16 and 17 with the structures shown in formula (16) and formula (17), respectively.

[0031] The research of the present invention shows that the chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton derivatives isolated from the fermentation culture of the fungus Epicoccum sorghinum. GST-5 by the above method have good anti-β-glucuronidase (GUS) activity. Further, the present invention uses the inhibitory activity of the compound on cells as its cytotoxicity data. The results show that except for compound 12, other compounds have low cytotoxicity to human cells. Therefore, the present invention provides the application of the chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton derivatives in the preparation of drugs or functional foods for anti-β-glucuronidase.

[0032] Further, the anti-β-glucuronidase drug is an inhibitor of intestinal bacteria β-glucuronidase. Research shows that β-glucuronidase distributed in the intestine can cause gastrointestinal adverse reactions during the catalytic hydrolysis of drugs (such as indomethacin, irinotecan, etc.). The compounds provided by the present invention can relieve the gastrointestinal adverse reactions caused by drugs by inhibiting the activity of GUS enzyme.

[0033] The present invention provides the application of the chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine hybrid skeleton derivatives in the preparation of drugs or functional foods for relieving the gastrointestinal toxic and side reactions caused by irinotecan and indomethacin drugs.

[0034] Furthermore, the research of the present invention has found that compound 12 has a significant inhibitory effect on Namalwa cell line and U266 cell line. Therefore, the present invention provides the use of the compound shown in the structural formula (12) in the preparation of anti-tumor drugs. Specifically, the tumor is myeloma or lymphoma.

[0036] The drug takes the derivative with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine of the present invention as the main active ingredient, and is made by adding pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, and can be made into a preparation according to the preparation methods of preparations recorded in pharmacy. The said preparation can be injection, drip infusion, powder for injection, granule, tablet, infusion, powder, oral liquid, sugar-coated tablet, film-coated tablet, enteric-coated tablet, buccal tablet, pill, paste, bolus, spray, drop pill, disintegrant, orally disintegrating tablet, pellet, etc.

[0037] The said functional food takes the derivative with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine of the present invention as the main active ingredient, and is made by adding acceptable food excipients.

[0038] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0039] (1) The present invention utilizes the polarity difference of the derivative with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine to extract and isolate a derivative with a novel structure and a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine from the fermentation culture of marine fungi. This method is simple in operation, high in extraction yield, and high in product purity, and is suitable for large-scale production.

[0040] (2) Through the in vitro anti-GUS enzyme test, it is shown that the derivative with a hybrid skeleton of chlorogentisyl alcohol and gabosine provided by the present invention has good anti-GUS enzyme activity, and the IC 50 value of the most active compound 17 is 0.24 μM. Further cytotoxicity tests show that the carbon sugar compounds provided by the present invention have low cytotoxicity and have good development prospects in the preparation of anti-GUS enzyme drugs and preventive health foods.

[0041] (3) Through the in vitro tumor cell test, the tumor cell lines used are Namalwa cells and U266 cells. Among them, the survival rate of compound 12 against Namalwa cells is -0.33%, and it has good development prospects in the preparation of anti-tumor drugs and preventive health foods.
