PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cyclohex-2-enone compound used for protecting liver. SOLUTION: The compound, 4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-6-methyl-5(3,7,11-trimethyl-dodeca-2,6,10-trienyl)-2-cyclohex-2-enone, mainly isolated from an extract of Antrodia camphorata, is effective for protecting liver tissue. The cyclohex-2-enone compound from Antrodia camphorata alleviates/reduces levels of liver tissue injury and fibrosis induced by chemical liver injury, reduces the concentration of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), increases the contents of glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and catalase (CAT) in liver, reduces the liver damage caused by free radicals, thus increases antioxidant ability of the liver tissue and achieves function and effect of liver protection.

摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new compound separated and purified from an extract of Antrodia camphorata and applicable for suppressing the growth of tumor cells. SOLUTION: The new compound and its use, in particular Antroquinonol B and Antroquinonol C isolated from Antrodia camphorata extracts, can effectively inhibit the growth of tumor cells. The compounds are first discovered from Antrodia camphorate and applicable not only in inhibiting growth of tumor cells of breast cancer, lung cancer, hepatic cancer and prostate cancer, but also as a component of medicinal compositions for suppressing the growth of the tumor cells.

摘要:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an Antrodia camphorate cyclohexane ketone compound used for relaxing physiological fatigue. SOLUTION: 4-Hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-6-methyl-5(3,7,11-trimethyl-dodeca-2,6,10-trienyl)-cyclohex-2-enone separated from an Antrodia camphorate extract can effectively relax physiological fatigue. After the high intense consumption motion of 80% maximum oxygen intake, the compound is immediately supplied to promote the metabolisms of body creatine kinase phosphate and blood ammonia, thereby achieving effects for helping the recovery of the concentration and for relaxing the physiological fatigues.
