The invention belongs to the technical field of natural pharmaceutical
chemistry, and particularly relates to a novel
iridoid compound, namely, uncarcinin, separated from wingceltis, a pharmaceutically acceptable isomer of the novel
iridoid compound, a wingceltis extract containing the novel
iridoid compound, and a preparation method and application of the novel iridoid compound. The
chemical structure of the utazonine is shown as a formula I, and the
absolute configuration of the utazonine is (1S, 3S, 3aR, 4R, 7aS). The invention also provides a method for extracting the compound or the extract from the stem of the wingceltis, and purifying by combining
pH gradient extraction with
silica gel column chromatography, semi-preparative
high performance liquid chromatography and gel
chromatography to obtain the compound or the extract. The wingceltis cycline, the isomer of the wingceltis cycline, the wingceltis extract containing the wingceltis cycline or the pharmaceutical composition show remarkable
gastric mucosa protection activity in an in-vitro
cell model, particularly, the protection rate of the wingceltis cycline to
ethanol-induced human
gastric mucosa epithelial
cell (GES-1) injury at the concentration of 50 mu M can reach 5.21%, and the wingceltis cycline, the isomer of the wingceltis cycline, the wingceltis extract containing the wingceltis cycline or the pharmaceutical composition show definite
gastric mucosa protection activity.
