This invention discloses the application of a
flavonoid compound from Citrus aurantium, specifically the application of a
flavonoid compound from Citrus aurantium or its physiologically acceptable salt in the preparation of anti-inflammatory and / or therapeutic drugs for diseases related to
lactate dehydrogenase release. The
flavonoid compound from Citrus aurantium has the
structural formula shown in Formula I, wherein R1 is selected from methoxy,
hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; R2 is selected from methoxy,
hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; R3 is selected from methoxy,
hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; R4 is selected from methoxy, hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; R5 is selected from methoxy, hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; R6 is selected from methoxy, hydrogen, ethoxy, or hydroxy; and the C2-C3 bond is a
double bond or a saturated bond. This invention clarifies that among the flavonoid compounds from Citrus aurantium, isopyroside,
apigenin, norihesperidin,
hesperidin, and isohesperidin can significantly inhibit LPS-induced LDH release in HL-1 cells and can serve as lead compounds for
antiseptic myocardial injury drugs.
