Problems solved by technology

However, the inhibitory effect of glycyrrhetinic acid and its derivatives on human carboxylesterase has not been reported, nor has there been any report on the use of glycyrrhetinic acid and its derivatives to relieve delayed diarrhea caused by CPT-11
In addition, many oral drugs containing carboxylate bonds are often metabolized by carboxylesterases distributed in the gastrointestinal tract, and are easily hydrolyzed into water-soluble active drugs before being absorbed into the blood, thereby reducing their absorption into the blood. The amount of drug that affects bioavailability

Abstract

The invention provides a pentacyclic triterpene compound and its application as an inhibitor of human intestinal carboxylesterase, belonging to the technical field of biomedicine. The pentacyclic triterpenoids have a 11-deoxy-glycyrrhetinic acid skeleton structure, which can potently and selectively inhibit the activity of human intestinal carboxylesterase subtype 2, thereby improving the bioavailability of oral prodrugs , and reduce the intake of intestinal esters. In addition, the inhibitor can also slow down the delayed diarrhea caused by irinotecan. In vitro activity assays found that the IC50 of this type of compound inhibiting human carboxylesterase 2 can reach 0.02 micromolar, and the ratio of the IC50 of inhibiting human carboxylesterase 1 to the IC50 of inhibiting human carboxylesterase 2 can reach 1020, and this type of compound The safety is good, and it also has the advantages of simple preparation process and high yield, suggesting that this type of compound has a good application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and mainly relates to a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound and its application as a potent inhibitor of human intestinal carboxylate. Background technique [0002] Carboxylesterases (CEs) belong to group B esterases, and the CEs involved in the metabolism of ester drugs in the human body are mainly carboxylesterase 1 (hCE-1) and carboxylesterase 2 (hCE-2). hCE-1 is highly expressed in the liver, and exists in macrophages, lung epithelial cells, heart, testis and other tissues, but little expression in the gastrointestinal tract. hCE-2 is present in small intestine, colon, kidney, liver, heart and brain tissue. CEs participate in the hydrolysis and metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous compounds in the body, and cooperate with other metabolic enzymes or carriers to play an important role in the metabolism and clearance of ester drugs. CEs can hydrolyze a variety of drugs or ester pro...
