Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical technology, specifically relating to a naphthol glycoside compound obtained from scabra, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Qinglongyi is a type of walnut (Manchurian walnut) Juglans mandshurica The green pericarp (peel) that covers the pit of the unripe fruit (Maxim). This medicine was first recorded in the "Kaibao Materia Medica". Traditional medicine believes that it has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and dispelling wind and treating tinea. Modern pharmacological research has confirmed that the green pericarp has biological activities such as anti-tumor, antibacterial, antioxidant and analgesic effects. In particular, clinical research on tumor prevention and treatment and skin disease intervention is deepening year by year, and it has become a research hotspot.

[0003] The structural characteristic of naphthol glycosides is that the naphthol core is linked to a glycosyl group via a glycosidic bond, and the core often has a series of derivatives formed by the substitution of phenolic hydroxyl groups in varying numbers and positions. The distribution of these compounds in the plant kingdom exhibits some family and genus specificity, with current reports concentrated in the Juglandaceae and Ebenaceae families, particularly the Juglandaceae genus, which is a typical source of these components. Current research on these compounds is in the exploratory stage, with significant limitations in both breadth and depth. For example, pharmacological activity mainly focuses on antitumor activity. Although structure-activity relationships have shown that monosaccharide derivatives generally exhibit superior activity compared to disaccharide derivatives, further studies on antitumor mechanisms and other pharmacological effects are still relatively few, limiting a comprehensive understanding of the bioactivity spectrum of naphthol glycosides. These compounds possess significant development potential and value. Summary of the Invention

Cell viability was determined using the CCK8 assay to assess drug toxicity. Results showed that the cell viability at 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μmol / L was nearly 100%, indicating no significant cytotoxicity at these concentrations. However, at 200 μmol / L, cell viability decreased to 85%, suggesting potential toxicity.

The cells were divided into a control group, a model group, and different concentrations of positive control drug groups (10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 μmol / L GGA groups). Except for the control group, the model group was treated with 5% ethanol for 3 h, and the different concentrations of positive control drug groups were co-treated with 5% ethanol for 3 h. Cell viability was determined by CCK8 assay to identify the optimal therapeutic concentration of the positive control drug. The experimental results are shown in Table 3.

Compared with the model group, the cell viability was significantly increased after treatment with different concentrations of positive drug groups (10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 μmol / L GGA groups). P <0.01), and there was no statistically significant difference in cell survival between the 80 μmol / L and 160 μmol / L GGA treatment groups. Therefore, the optimal therapeutic concentration of GGA was determined to be 80 μmol / L.

Then add an appropriate amount of complete culture medium to prepare the concentration of the compound to 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 μmol / L. After sterilization, store at 4ºC for later use.

[0055] 2) Protective effect of the drug on ethanol-damaged GES-1 cells: Except for the control group, 100 μL of logarithmic growth phase cells (density 1×10⁻⁶) were seeded in each well of the 96-well plate. 5 / mL). Cells were cultured at 37 ˚C, 5% CO2 until adherence was achieved to establish a cell model. After 3 h of culture, different concentrations (3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 μmol / L) of the compound were added to the model medium for further culture. After 24 h, 10 μL of CCK-8 was added to each well for an additional 2 h of culture. The absorbance (OD) of each well was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and cell viability was calculated.

Compared with the model group, treatment with the positive control drug and the 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μmol / L drug groups for 24 h significantly improved cell viability (the 6.25 μmol / L drug group showed significantly higher viability). P <0.05, other groups P <0.01), and the cell survival rate was highest in the 50 μmol / L drug group, which was close to that of the 80 μmol / L positive control drug, showing a significant anti-ethanol-induced GES-1 cell damage effect. However, cell survival rate decreased with increasing concentration, as shown in Table 4:
