The invention relates to the technical field of hyssop
officinalis extracts, in particular to a diterpenoid component in a hyssop
officinalis ethanol extract as well as an extraction method and application of the diterpenoid component, the diterpenoid component is obtained at the 23rd minute by adding
ethanol into the overground part of hyssop
officinalis, extracting, concentrating, eluting and separating the obtained
petroleum ether part extract and purifying and separating the third fraction. The invention discloses a diterpenoid component in the hyssop officinalis
ethanol extract for the first time, namely a compound (1R, 5R, 6 'R, 7a' R)-6, 6, 7 ', 7'-tetramethyl tetrahydrospiro [bicyclo [3.1. 1]
heptane-2, 2 '-[6, 7a] methylbenzofuran]-3, 4' (5 'H)-
diketone, and in-vitro anti-tumor pharmacodynamic experiments find that the diterpenoid component has a relatively strong inhibition effect on HepG-2 cells and
HeLa cells, and can be used for preparing a
medicine for treating tumors. Therefore, the compound can be used for preparing medicines for preventing
liver cancer or / and
cervical cancer and medicines for resisting
liver cancer or / and
cervical cancer.
