Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceuticals, specifically to a novel triterpenic acid compound 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid isolated from Ganoderma lucidum, its preparation method, and its use in anti-influenza virus therapy. Background Technology

[0002] Reishi mushroom was first recorded in the *Shennong Bencao Jing* (Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica), listed as a superior herb. It is sweet, neutral, and non-toxic, beneficial to essence and qi, and good for tendons and bones, improving complexion. Since 2000, reishi has been included as a traditional Chinese medicine in the *Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China* (Part I), as the dried fruiting body of the fungus *Ganoderma lucidum* (Leyss. ex Fr.) Karst. or *Ganoderma inense* Zhao, Xu et Zhang, belonging to the Polyporaceae family. In 2023, reishi (the fruiting body of *Ganoderma lucidum* and *Ganoderma inense*) was also included in the list of substances traditionally used as both food and traditional Chinese medicine. The main chemical components of reishi include triterpenes, heteroterpenes, polysaccharides, steroids, alkaloids, and sesquiterpenes. Modern clinical and pharmacological studies suggest that reishi possesses various effects, including immunomodulation, sedation, tranquilization, anti-tumor, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, blood pressure lowering, and liver protection. Currently, the main type of artificially cultivated Ganoderma lucidum is Ganoderma lucidum (Leyss. ex Fr.) Karst.

[0003] Influenza viruses belong to the Orthomyxoviridae family and are enveloped, negative-sense RNA viruses. Based on antigenic characteristics, they can be classified into influenza A, B, C, and D viruses, with influenza A posing the greatest threat to human health. Influenza viruses possess two glycoproteins on their surface: hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). NA helps release progeny viruses from host cells by cleaving sialic acid on the cell surface. Neuraminidase inhibitors exert their antiviral effect by inhibiting the activity of NA in influenza viruses. Currently, neuraminidase inhibitors approved by the FDA for the treatment of influenza include oseltamivir, zanamivir, and peramivir. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classifies drugs into five categories (A, B, C, D, and X) based on animal studies and clinical experience regarding their teratogenic effects on fetuses. Category C drugs are those for which animal studies have shown harm to the fetus (teratogenicity or embryonic death, etc.), or for which there are no controlled studies in pregnant women, or for which no studies have been conducted on pregnant women and animals. These drugs can only be used after weighing the benefits to the pregnant woman against the risks to the fetus. Currently, because there are no controlled trials in pregnant women, NA inhibitors are all classified as Category C according to the FDA. Ganoderma lucidum is considered a superior herb, non-toxic, suitable for long-term use, and has almost no toxic side effects.

[0004] The novel Ganoderma lucidum triterpene acid (3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid) involved in this study is a new compound, and its inhibitory activity against influenza virus neuraminidase is being discovered for the first time. To date, no patents or literature reports have been found to support this finding.

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to fully develop my country's traditional Chinese medicine resources, to find compounds with unique chemical structures, high activity, and low toxicity and side effects that inhibit influenza virus neuraminidase, in order to provide novel anti-influenza virus drugs for clinical research. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem solved by this invention is to provide 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid, its preparation method, and its use in anti-influenza virus therapy.

[0007] To solve the technical problem of this invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] The first aspect of the present invention is to provide 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid, a triterpenic acid with a lower C3 content. Its characteristic is that the compound has the following structural formula:

[0009]

[0010] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid described in the first aspect:

[0011] 1) The dried fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum were extracted three times by heating and refluxing with 90% ethanol-water. The extracts were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain an extract, which was then mixed with macroporous resin.

[0012] 2) Macroporous resin chromatography was performed with gradient elution using 30% ethanol-water, 60% ethanol-water, 80% ethanol-water, and 95% ethanol-water to obtain four fractions, namely DK-1-DK-4. DK-3 was further eluted by silica gel column chromatography with a gradient elution of a mixture of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate at volume ratios of 85:15, 80:20, 75:25, 70:30, 60:40, and 50:50, followed by washing the column with ethyl acetate and methanol to obtain 25 fractions, namely Fr.1-Fr.25. Fr.17 was eluted by medium-pressure silica gel column chromatography with a gradient elution of petroleum ether:ethyl acetate (80:20-50:50, v / v), followed by washing the column with ethyl acetate to obtain 14 subfractions, namely Fr.17-1-Fr.17-14. Fr.17-7 was further eluted by C... 18 Reverse-phase column chromatography with gradient elution using methanol:water (50:50-75:25, v / v) as the eluent, followed by column washing with 100% methanol, yielded 25 subfractions, namely Fr.17-7-1-Fr.17-7-25. Fr.17-7-10 was separated by semi-preparative reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with isocratic elution using 40% acetonitrile-water as the eluent to obtain ganoderic acid 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid (number LZ-GO-45).

[0013] LZ-GO-45 is a white amorphous powder. UV(MeOH)λ max (logε)212(3.91),252(3.79)nm. IRν max 1732, 1708, 1692, 1673cm -1The presence of 3 carbonyl groups and 1 carboxyl group is indicated, 1585cm. -1 This is a double bond absorption peak. HR-ESI-MS shows a quasi-molecular ion peak at m / z 441.2646 [MH]. – (calcd.forC 27 H 37 O5,441.2647), its molecule is determined to be C 27 H 38 O5 has an unsaturation degree of 9.

[0014] 1 The 1H-NMR spectrum (Table 1) shows 37 hydrogen signals. There are no hydrogen signals at the low field; all hydrogen signals are at the high field. Six methyl signals are observed in the high field region [δ]. H 1.28(3H,s,H-19), 1.22(3H,s,H-30), 1.13(3H,s,H-28), 1.11(3H,H-29), 0.91(3H,d,J=6.4Hz,H-21), 0.83(3H,s,H-18)], the remainder being the methylene or methine hydrogen signals of the compound.

[0015] 13 The C-NMR spectrum (Table 1) shows 27 carbon signals, including 3 carbonyl and 1 carboxyl carbon signals [δ]. C 215.8(C-3), 202.0(C-11), 201.4(C-7), 177.7(C-24)]; Two carbon signals from one double bond [δ C 151.6(C-8), 149.8(C-9)], 6 methyl carbon signals [δ C 27.5 (C-28), 25.9 (C-30), 20.4 (C-29), 18.1 (C-21), 18.0 (C-19), 17.0 (C-18)], plus 15 other aliphatic carbon signals [δ C 51.3(C-12),49.8(C-5),49.1(C-17),48.7(C-14),46.9(C-13),46.7(C-4),38.8(C-10),3 7.1(C-6),35.7(C-20),35.0(C-1),34.1(C-2),31.9(C-15),30.7(C-22,23),27.3(C-16)].

[0016] By HR-ESI-MS, 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR spectra suggest that LZ-GO-45 is a no-three-carbon lanostane-type triterpenoid.

[0017] Combined with HMBC spectrum, H3-28(δ) H 1.13), H3-29(δ) C 1.11) and C-3(δ) C 215.8) is related, indicating that the C-3 position is a carbonyl group; H-5 (δ H 2.26) and C-7(δ) C The correlation between 201.4 and H2 indicates that the C-7 position is a carbonyl group; H2-22 (δ H 1.35) and C-24 (δ) C The correlation of 177.7 indicates that the C-24 position of the side chain is a carbonyl group; H3-30 (δ H 1.22) and C-8(δ) C 151.6) related, H3-19 (δ) H 1.28) and C-9(δ) C (149.8) Related to this, indicating that C-8 and C-9 are double bonds.

[0018] Thus, the planar structure of the compound was established.

[0019] The planar structure of LZ-GO-45 is identical to that of the known synthesized euphorbia-type triterpenoid (5R,10S,13S,14S,17S,20S)-3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinortirucalla-8-en-24-oic acid (Studies on the constituents of Chinese drug "kanzui."8. KMnO4 oxidation of euphol,tirucalloland beta-euphorbol, Yakugaku Zasshi, 1967, 87:21–25). The difference lies in the reverse orientation of the three methyl groups (CH3-18 at C-13, CH3-30 at C-14, and CH3-21 at C-20) and H-17. H 0.83) / H3-19(δ H 1.28), H3-19 (δ) H 1.28) / H3-29(δ H 1.11), H-17(δ) H 1.69) / H3-21(δ H 0.91), H-17 (δ) H 1.69) / H3-30(δ H 1.22), H-5(δ) H 2.26) / H3-28(δ H1.13) It can be determined that the methyl groups at positions 18 and 19 are β-methyl, the methyl groups at positions 21 and 30 are α-methyl, and H-5 and H-17 are α-H. This configuration is consistent with the lanostane skeleton configuration. Finally, the absolute configuration of LZ-GO-45 was determined to be 5R,10S,13R,14R,17R,20R.

[0020] The structure of LZ-GO-45 was determined and named 3,7,11-trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanos ta-8-en-24-oic acid. A Sci-finder search confirmed it as a novel compound.

[0038] 1.1.3,7,11-Trioxo-25,26,27-trinorlanosta-8-en-24-oic acid inhibitory effect on influenza virus neuraminidase

[0039] The influenza virus neuraminidase is located on the surface of the influenza virus and can cause the virus to be released from the host cell. The compound 4-methylumbelliferyl-N-acetyl-α-D-neuraminidase sodium hydrate (MUNANA) is a specific substrate of neuraminidase (NA). The metabolites produced under the action of neuraminidase can produce 450 nm fluorescence when excited by 360 nm irradiation. The change in fluorescence intensity can sensitively reflect the activity of neuraminidase.

[0040] Experimental methods:

[0041] In the enzyme reaction system, a certain concentration of the analyte compound and influenza virus neuraminidase were suspended in a reaction buffer (pH 6.5). The fluorescent substrate MUNANA was added to start the reaction, and the mixture was incubated at 37°C for 60 minutes. The reaction was then terminated by adding a stop solution. The fluorescence intensity was measured under the parameters of an excitation wavelength of 360 nm and an emission wavelength of 450 nm. The inhibition rate of the compound on neuraminidase activity was calculated based on the decrease in fluorescence intensity.
