マトリン

化学的特性Matrine is a white crystal or powder in the form of needles, which can turn yellow with prolonged exposure to air. It is soluble in water, benzene, chloroform, and methanol, but only slightly soluble in petroleum ether. Matrine has a melting point of 76°C (α-matrine), 87°C (β-matrine), 223°C (γ-matrine), and 84°C (δ-matrine), and a specific optical rotation of +31 to +36°.

用途マトリン(Matrine)は、クララ属の植物に含まれるアルカロイドである。抗がん作用、オピオイド受容体のκ-受容体やµ-受容体へのアゴニスト等、様々な薬理作用を持つ。 マトリンは、in vitroでもin vivoでも強い抗腫瘍作用を示す。マトリンの抗腫瘍作用は、細胞増殖の阻害とアポトーシスの誘導によるものと考えられている。またマトリンは、中国の伝統的な薬草であるクララの成分でもある。 マトリンや関連化合物のオキシマトリンは、イエシロアリに対する摂食阻害の効果がある。

説明Matrine is an alkaloid isolated from the traditional Chinese medicine Sophora flavescens Aiton. The extraction process involves the use of organic solvents on dry roots, plants, and fruits of kushen Sophora flavescens Ait. Matrine is also present in S. alopecuroides L. and S. subprostrata Chun et T. Chen.Chinese medicine Radix Sophora flavescentis have dampness eliminating insecticide and diuretic "Southern Yunnan Materia Medica" also recorded the effects of Saphora. flavescens.Sophora flavescens is a species of Sophora japonica and is distributed in temperate and subtropical regions. Sophora flavescens is widely distributed in China, mainly in the north of Hebei, the west of Henan, and southwest of Shandong, Anhui, Hubei, and Guizhou.

来歴As early as the 1930s, the Soviet Union began to study Sophora flavescens, and the china research began in 1972. Sophora flavescens in the chemical composition are divided into two major categories of alkaloids and flavonoids. Global research efforts are currently concentrated on studying alkaloids. So far, there are 23 species of alkaloids isolated and identified in roots, stems, leaves, and flowers of Sophora flavescens. The main components of Sophora flavescens have obvious anti-cancer effects, and oxymatrine has anti-cancer and antiaging effects.

使用(+)-Matrine is an alkaloid compound extracted from the roots of Sophora species which maintain anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and a host of other positive pharmacological effects. Apoptotic agent.
