Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine, and specifically relates to andrographolide diterpene lactone compounds, and an extraction method and application thereof.

Background Art

[0002] Inflammation is a defensive response of the human body to damaged stimuli, which can regulate the body's immunity, remove pathogens to reduce cell damage, start tissue repair functions, and autonomously repair damaged tissues. When macrophages are invaded by foreign pathogenic microorganisms, they can release pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) family cytokines, NO, and start the secretion of related proteins that regulate inflammation, causing inflammation and immune responses.

[0003] NO is a small molecule discovered in vascular endothelium, and the occurrence of both acute and chronic inflammation is related to it. NO can inhibit the proliferation of T cells and B cells and regulate cytokines of multiple inflammatory reactions, thereby causing inflammation. Multiple anti-inflammatory effects of andrographis paniculata are all related to the regulatory effect on NO. When immune cells are stimulated by microbial endotoxins, inflammatory mediators, etc., they generate a large amount of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) to produce NO for immune responses. Therefore, inhibiting the production of NO is a direct indicator for calculating the anti-inflammatory activity of compounds. Dexamethasone is a common anti-inflammatory drug in this field. Dexamethasone can reduce and prevent the reaction of tissues to inflammation, thereby reducing the expression of inflammation. However, with the development of the times, the anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone is difficult to meet the needs of patients.

[0048] Test Example 2 Anti-inflammatory activity screening of Compounds 1 to 7 Materials and Reagents: Mouse monocyte macrophage RAW264.7, low serum medium (DMEM medium), fetal bovine serum, Griess Reagent, LPS, and dexamethasone as a control drug. Principle: LPS is one of the main components of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria and is widely used to induce the RAW264.7 cell inflammation model for screening potential anti-inflammatory active natural products. When cells are stimulated by LPS, they can release inflammatory neurotransmitters such as TNF-α, IL-6, and NO, thereby initiating the function of resisting the inflammatory response. NO is a multifunctional free radical messenger molecule, mainly catalyzed and generated by nitric oxide synthases (NOS). However, the excessive production of NO and inflammatory mediators is related to the inflammatory process. The activation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) causes various inflammatory diseases, and the down-regulated expression of iNOS is regarded as a target for treating inflammation. Usually, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has very low activity in normal cells. After being activated by external factors, its expression level rapidly increases, which is an important symbol enzyme for the inflammatory response.

[0049] (1) Inhibitory rate of compounds 1-7 on the production of NO RAW264.7 cells were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Gibco), and the culture conditions were a temperature of 37°C, a humidity of 95%, and a CO2 concentration of 5%. RAW264.7 macrophages were seeded at a density of 5×10 4Cells were inoculated into a 96-well plate at 150 μL per well at a density of [X] cells / mL and cultured in a cell incubator for 24 h. After the culture was completed, the culture medium was aspirated and removed, and a two-fold gradient treatment was performed on test compounds 1-7 at their corresponding concentrations with a culture medium containing 1 μg / mL LPS. A group without drug and a dexamethasone positive drug group were set as controls. After culturing the cells for 24 h, the medium was taken to detect the production of NO, and the absorbance value was measured at the 570 nm site. The CellTiter 96® AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS) was added to the remaining medium to detect cell viability and eliminate the effect of the compound on cell toxicity. NO production inhibition rate (%) = (OD of non-drug treatment group 570nm - OD of sample group 570nm ) / (OD of non-drug treatment group 570nm - OD of blank group 570nm ) × 100%. Half inhibitory concentration (IC 50 , 50% concentration of inhibition) was calculated and fitted with Prism 8, and the IC 50 standard deviation of the three groups was calculated by Excel, and the specific results are shown in Table 5.

[0051] The data in Table 5 show that the anti-inflammatory activity of compound 5 (androlata E) is superior to that of the positive control drug and andrographolide, and is the highest.

[0052] (2) Effect of compound 5 on the expression levels of RAW264.7 inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) According to the method in (1), RAW264.7 cells were seeded at a density of 1×10 5 Please note that the value of [X] in the translation of is not provided in the original text, so it remains as [X] in the translation. Also, the specific content of 570nm , 570nm , etc. are not clear in terms of their specific meaning in this context, so they are just translated as is while preserving the tags.Inoculated into a 6-well plate at 2 mL per well at a density of [X] cells / mL (the culture conditions were the same as (1)). The experiment was divided into a blank group, an LPS group, and an LPS + gradient concentration drug group. The LPS group was treated with 1 μg / mL LPS, and the drug groups were simultaneously treated with 1 μg / mL LPS and 2.5 μM, 5 μM, and 10 μM of compound 5, respectively. After co-culturing for 24 h, the operation was carried out according to the instruction manual of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (ELISA kit), and the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α were measured. The measurement results are shown in A - C of Figure 10 (here, A of Figure 10 is the result diagram of detecting IL-6 by the Elisa method, B of Figure 10 is the result diagram of detecting IL-1β by the Elisa method, and C of Figure 10 is the result diagram of detecting TNF-α level by the Elisa method). Combined with A - C of Figure 10, it can be seen that compound 5 (androlata E) significantly reduces the secretion of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β induced by LPS, and similarly, it has concentration dependence.

[0053] (3) Effect of compound 5 on the expression of COX-2 and iNOS proteins in RAW264.7 cells Compound 5 has stronger anti-inflammatory activity. Protein immunoblotting (Western blot) was used to detect the expression levels of COX-2 and iNOS proteins in RAW264.7 cell inflammation to further investigate its anti-inflammatory mechanism of action. According to the method of (1), RAW 264.7 was adjusted to a density of 1×10 5Inoculated into a 6-well plate at 2 mL per well at a density of / mL (the culture conditions were the same as (1)). The experiment was divided into a blank group, an LPS group, and an LPS + gradient concentration drug group. After continuous culture for 24 h, the cells were collected. According to the method in the kit's instruction manual, the cells were lysed to extract total protein, and the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay was used to measure the protein concentration. Western Blot was used to detect the intracellular protein expression levels of COX-2 and iNOS, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was used as an internal reference to normalize the protein strips. The measurement results are shown in D - F of Figure 10 (here, D in Figure 10 is the result diagram of detecting the iNOS and COX-2 protein levels in cells by Western blot, E in Figure 10 is the result diagram of the COX-2 protein expression level, F in Figure 10 is the result diagram of the iNOS protein expression level, where n = 3, x ± s, vs blank group, #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01, P < 0.001, vs LPS group, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001). As can be seen from D - F of Figure 10, compound 5 (androlata E) can significantly reduce the production of NO in inflammatory cells and decrease the protein expression levels of iNOS and COX-2.

[0054] (4) Docking of compound 5 with COX-2, iNOS, and IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α molecules Method: For compound 5 with COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α, molecular docking of IL-1β and IL-6 was performed using AutoDockTools and AutoDock Vina. The docking method is as follows. (1) For the diterpene compound structure file (mol2 format), ChemOffice software was used to convert it into a 3D structure to minimize the structural energy. Then, AutoDockTools software was used to hydrogenate the three-dimensional structure and calculate and save it as a pdbqt file. (2) Obtain the target crystal structure from the RCSB Protein Data Bank (https: / / www.pdb.org / ), select the crystal structure with the PDB code 6Y8I as the docking crystal structure of IL-1β, select the crystal structure with the PDB code 1ALU as the docking crystal structure of IL-6, select the crystal structure with the PDB code 5F19 as the docking crystal structure of COX-2, select the crystal structure with the PDB code 1A8M as the docking crystal structure of TNF-a, import it into PyMOL, dehydrate it, hydrogenate it, and use it for ligand separation. Then, in AutoDockTools, construct a docking grid box at the active site of each target protein and save it in the pdbqt format. (3) Use AutoDock Vina 4.2 to perform molecular docking on the hypothetical target and the active compound and evaluate the free binding energy. (4) Use PyMOL to visualize the active compound and analyze its interactions.

People can also obtain other examples based on these examples without being creative, and all examples belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
