Inhibitory Potential of α-Amylase, α-Glucosidase, and Pancreatic Lipase by a Formulation of Five Plant Extracts: TOTUM-63. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:3652. [PMID: 36835060 PMCID: PMC9966338 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043652] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Controlling post-prandial hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, particularly by regulating the activity of digestive enzymes, allows managing type 2 diabetes and obesity. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of TOTUM-63, a formulation of five plant extracts (Olea europaea L., Cynara scolymus L., Chrysanthellum indicum subsp. afroamericanum B.L.Turner, Vaccinium myrtillus L., and Piper nigrum L.), on enzymes involved in carbohydrate and lipid absorption. First, in vitro inhibition assays were performed by targeting three enzymes: α-glucosidase, α-amylase, and lipase. Then, kinetic studies and binding affinity determinations by fluorescence spectrum changes and microscale thermophoresis were performed. The in vitro assays showed that TOTUM-63 inhibited all three digestive enzymes, particularly α-glucosidase (IC50 of 13.1 µg/mL). Mechanistic studies on α-glucosidase inhibition by TOTUM-63 and molecular interaction experiments indicated a mixed (full) inhibition mechanism, and higher affinity for α-glucosidase than acarbose, the reference α-glucosidase inhibitor. Lastly, in vivo data using leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice, a model of obesity and type 2 diabetes, indicated that TOTUM-63 might prevent the increase in fasting glycemia and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels over time, compared with the untreated group. These results show that TOTUM-63 is a promising new approach for type 2 diabetes management via α-glucosidase inhibition.

Abstract
In order to find new α-glucosidase inhibitors with high efficiency and low toxicity, novel chromone-based benzohydrazide derivatives 6a-6s were synthesized and characterized through 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. All the new synthesized compounds were tested for inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase. Compounds 6a-6s with IC50 values ranging from 4.51 ± 0.09 to 27.21 ± 0.83 μM, showed a potential α-glucosidase inhibitory activity as compared to the positive control (acarbose: IC50 = 790.40 ± 0.91 μM). Compound 6i exhibited the highest α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 4.51 ± 0.09 μM. Theinteractionbetween α-glucosidase and 6i was further confirmed by enzyme kinetic, fluorescence quenching, circular dichroism, and molecular docking study. In vivo experiment showed that 6i could suppress the rise of blood glucose levels after sucrose loading. The cytotoxicity result indicated that 6i exhibited low cytotoxicity in vitro.

Efficient Synthesis and In Vitro Hypoglycemic Activity of Rare Apigenin Glycosylation Derivatives. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28020533. [PMID: 36677592 PMCID: PMC9866095 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28020533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Apigenin is a natural flavonoid with significant biological activity, but poor solubility in water and low bioavailability limits its use in the food and pharmaceutical industries. In this paper, apigenin-7-O-β-(6″-O)-d-glucoside (AG) and apigenin-7-O-β-(6″-O-succinyl)-d-glucoside (SAG), rare apigenin glycosyl and succinyl derivatives formed by the organic solvent-tolerant bacteria Bacillus licheniformis WNJ02 were used in a 10.0% DMSO (v/v) system. The water solubility of SAG was 174 times that of apigenin, which solved the application problem. In the biotransformation reaction, the conversion rate of apigenin (1.0 g/L) was 100% at 24 h, and the yield of SAG was 94.2%. Molecular docking showed that the hypoglycemic activity of apigenin, apigenin-7-glucosides (AG), and SAG was mediated by binding with amino acids of α-glucosidase. The molecular docking results were verified by an in vitro anti-α-glucosidase assay and glucose consumption assay of active compounds. SAG had significant anti-α-glucosidase activity, with an IC50 of 0.485 mM and enhanced glucose consumption in HepG2 cells, which make it an excellent α-glucosidase inhibitor.

Abstract
The sugarcane processing industry generates a large amount of straw, which has a negative environmental impact, and high costs are associated with their elimination, wasting their potential bioactive value attributed to their richness in polyphenols. In this study, an ethanolic extract produced from sugarcane straw was screened for its phenolic compounds content, and the potential use of this extract in the development of a food ingredient was further evaluated. Fifty different secondary metabolites belonging to the hydroxybenzoic acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, and flavonoids were identified by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-ultrahigh-resolution-quadrupole time of flight-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-UHR-QqTOF-MS). The predominant phenolic compounds found were 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, chlorogenic acid, and 5-O-feruloylquinic acid. The obtained extracts showed strong potential as food preservatives by exhibiting (a) antioxidant activity using both 2.2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt radical cation (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods; and (b) antimicrobial capacity, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 50 mg/mL for Staphylococcus aureus, 74% inhibition for Bacillus cereus, and 44% for Salmonella enterica; and (c) the capacity to inhibit a food browning enzyme, tyrosinase (28-73% for 1-8 mg/ mL). Moreover, the extracts showed antidiabetic potential by inhibiting the enzymes α-glucosidase (15-38% for 1.25-5.00 mg/mL) and dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) (62-114% for 0.31-5.00 mg/mL). The extract (0.625 mg/mL) also exhibited the capacity to reduce proinflammatory mediators (i.e., interleukins 6 and 8, and tumor necrosis factor alpha) when Caco-2 cells were stimulated with interleukin 1 beta. Thus, sugarcane straw extract, which is rich in phenolic compounds, showed high potential to be used in the development of food-preservative ingredients owing to its antioxidant and antimicrobial potential, and to be explored as a food supplement in diabetes prevention and as coadjuvant to reduce intestinal inflammation by reducing proinflammatory mediators.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tea polyphenols have been reported to have the effect of lowering uric acid. However, there are few studies on the inhibitory effects and molecular mechanisms of specific catechins on the urate-metabolizing enzyme xanthine oxidase (XO). In this research, multiple spectroscopic methods and computer simulations were used to determine the inhibitory ability and mechanisms of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and gallocatechin gallate (GCG) on XO. RESULTS Herein, EGCG and GCG reversibly inhibited XO activity in a mixed manner, with IC50 values of 40.50 ± 0.32 and 33.60 ± 0.53 μmol L-1 , and also decreased the superoxide anion radical (O2 - ) of the catalytic system by reducing the XO molecule and inhibiting the formation of uric acid. The combination of EGCG or GCG with allopurinol showed synergistic inhibition on XO. The binding of EGCG or GCG to XO with moderate affinity formed a stable complex by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The presence of EGCG and GCG made the structure of XO more stable and compact. The two inhibitors bound to the vicinity of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) in XO, hindering the entry of substrate; thus the activity of XO was suppressed. CONCLUSION Both EGCG and GCG are excellent natural XO inhibitors, and inhibited the activity of XO by occupying the channel of the substrate to enter the active center and interfering with the dual substrate reaction catalyzed by XO. These findings provide a scientific basis for the application of catechins in dietary supplements and medicines with lowering uric acid effects. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Gout is an inflammatory joint disease caused by urate crystal deposition, which is associated with hyperuricemia. Gout will take place when the uric acid accumulates. Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a crucial enzyme in the formation of uric acid. Inhibiting XO is one of the means to ameliorate gout. Luteoloside is a kind of natural flavonoid, which has an excellent prospect for relieving gout. But there are few reports on the interaction mechanism between luteoloside and XO currently. In this study, the interaction mechanism between luteoloside and XO was explored using spectroscopy and molecular docking. The fluorescence spectroscopy results indicated that luteoloside could make the intrinsic fluorescence of XO quenched, and the binding constant between luteoloside and XO was (1.85 ± 0.22) × 103 L mol-1 at 298 K. The synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy results showed that the absorption peaks of Tyr and Trp shifted blue, and the hydrophobicity of the microenvironment increased. Moreover, CD spectra showed that α-helix of XO decreased, β-sheet and β-turn increased after adding luteoloside. The results of molecular docking analysis showed that XO could combine with luteoloside through hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic force. The results indicated that luteoloside could remarkably interact with XO. Insights into the interaction mechanism provide a necessary basis for the search for low-toxic natural products as targets of XO. HIGHLIGHTS: Luteoloside and xanthine oxidase was a strong binding mode and had only one binding site. Luteoloside could cause α-helix reduced, β-sheet and β-turn increased, and change the secondary structure of XO. The binding between luteoloside and xanthine oxidase was a spontaneous process. The main binding force was hydrophobic force between luteoloside and xanthine oxidase.

Abstract
An α-glucosidase inhibition assay showed the ethanolic extract of Fenghuang Dancong tea had potential α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The most bioactive fraction, which was obtained via bioassay-guided isolation of the extract, was further purified to create five compounds, including three novel compounds (1–3). These compounds were analyzed and identified in detail using high-resolution-mass spectrometry and extensive one-dimensional and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy experiments. Among the compounds, compound 1 contained cis double bonds and showed the strongest α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 7.51 μM, which is significantly lower than that of compound 2 with trans double bonds. Enzyme kinetic experiments showed that 1 was a reversible non-competitive α-glucosidase inhibitor.

Abstract
Limonium genus is traditionally used in North Africa for disease treatment and in cosmetic. This study investigates for the first time the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and enzyme inhibitory activities of two Tunisian endemic plants, L. boitardii and L. cercinense. Analysis of phenolic compounds was carried out by using RP-HPLC. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents, antioxidant activity (antiradical, reducing and total antioxidant activities), tyrosinase and α-glucosidase, collagenase inhibition activities were determined. Inhibiting of NO release in LPS-stimulated macrophages was assessed. L. cercinense exhibited strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. In the tyrosinase and α-glucosidase inhibitor activity tests, the two species were highly active, especially L. cercinense. High total phenolic and flavonoid contents were recorded in L. cercinense and myricitrin, myricetin, myricetin 3-O-β-D-galatopyranoside, luteolin 7-O-glucoside and rutin were the main phenolics in both species. The results obtained render L. boitardii and L. cercinense as valuable new natural sources for cosmetic and pharmacological applications.

Abstract
Pomegranate peel (PoP) contains plenty of bioactive compounds and exhibits strong activity to prevent postprandial hyperglycaemia and improve diabetes mellitus. Presently, bioaffinity ultrafiltration coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS) is employed to screen and identify the efficient α-glucosidase inhibitors in PoP and the detailed inhibitory mechanisms are further investigated. The results show that many substances, including ellagic acid, kaempferol, gallic acid, and resveratrol in PoP reveal strong activity to inhibit α-glucosidase and ellagic acid (EA) is screened as the most effective compound. Further research indicates that EA plays a competitive and reversible inhibition role against α-glucosidase with the value of Ki was 6.24 × 105 mol/L. EA also directly interacts with the amino acids of α-glucosidase mainly via van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds, thereby, influencing the secondary structure and stability of α-glucosidase. Finally, the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of EA is further confirmed to significantly reduce postprandial blood glucose in vivo.

Abstract
Umami taste receptor type 1 member 1/3 (T1R1/T1R3) heterodimer has multiple ligand-binding sites, most of which are located in T1R1-Venus flytrap domain (T1R1-VFT). However, the critical binding process of T1R1-VFT/umami ligands remains largely unknown. Herein, T1R1-VFT was prepared with a sufficient amount and functional activity, and its binding characteristics with typical umami molecules (monosodium l-glutamate, disodium succinate, beefy meaty peptide, and inosine-5'-monophosphate) were explored via multispectroscopic techniques and molecular dynamics simulation. The results showed that, driven mainly by hydrogen bond, van der Waals forces, and electrostatic interactions, T1R1-VFT bound to umami compound at 1:1 (stoichiometric interaction) and formed T1R1-VFT/ligand complex (static fluorescence quenching) with a weak binding affinity (Ka values: 252 ± 19 to 1169 ± 112 M-1). The binding process was spontaneous and exothermic (ΔG, -17.72 to -14.26 kJ mol-1; ΔH, -23.86 to -12.11 kJ mol-1) and induced conformational changes of T1R1-VFT, which was mainly reflected in slight unfolding of α-helix (Δα-helix < 0) and polypeptide chain backbone structure. Meanwhile, the binding of the four ligands stabilized the active conformation of the T1R1-VFT pocket. This work provides insight into the binding interaction between T1R1-VFT/umami ligands and improves understanding of how umami receptor recognizes specific ligand molecules.

Abstract
Regulation of key digestive enzymes is currently considered an effective remedy for diabetes mellitus. In this study, bioactive constituents were purified from Terminalia boivinii fruits and identified by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and EI-MS. In vitro and in silico methods were used to evaluate α-glucosidase, α-amylase, and lipase inhibition activities. Compounds 1 , 2 , and 4-7 with IC50 values between 89 and 445 µM showed stronger α-glucosidase inhibitory activities than the antihyperglycemic drug acarbose (IC 50 =1463.0 ± 29.5 µM). However, the compounds showed lower inhibitory effects against α-amylase and lipase with IC 50 values above 500 µM than acarbose (IC 50 = 16.7 ± 3.5 µM) and ursolic acid (IC 50 = 89.5 ± 5.6 µM), respectively. Lineweaver-Burk plots showed that compounds 1 , 2 , and 7 were non-competitive inhibitors, compounds 4 and 5 were competitive inhibitors and compound 6 was a mixed-type inhibitor. Fluorescence spectroscopic data showed that the compounds altered the microenvironment and conformation of α-glucosidase. Computer simulations indicated that the compounds and enzyme interacted primarily through hydrogen bonding. The findings indicated that the compounds were inhibitors of α-glucosidase and provided significant structural basis for understanding the binding activity of the compounds with α-glucosidase.

Abstract
In this study, colloidal complexes were prepared from bovine lactoferrin (BLF) and tannic acid (TA) and then their ability to form and stabilize foams was characterized. The molecular interactions between BLF and TA were studied using fluorescence and molecular docking analysis, which suggested that hydrophobic forces were primarily involved in holding the complexes together. The production of colloidal BLF-TA complexes was supported by increases in turbidity and mean particle diameter, quenching of intrinsic fluorescence, decrease in surface hydrophobicity, and change in conformation. When used alone, BLF exhibited good foam formation but poor foam stability properties. In contrast, BLF-TA complexes exhibited good foam stability but poor foamability properties. The change in foaming properties of the proteins was closely related to their interactions with the polyphenols. These findings may be useful for the development of novel functional ingredients to construct food foams with good physicochemical and nutritional attributes.

Abstract
Computer modeling is a method that is widely used in scientific investigations to predict the biological activity, toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and synthesis strategy of compounds based on the structure of the molecule. This work is a systematic review of articles performed in accordance with the recommendations of PRISMA and contains information on computer modeling of the interaction of classical flavonoids with different biological targets. The review of used computational approaches is presented. Furthermore, the affinities of flavonoids to different targets that are associated with the infection, cardiovascular, and oncological diseases are discussed. Additionally, the methodology of bias risks in molecular docking research based on principles of evidentiary medicine was suggested and discussed. Based on this data, the most active groups of flavonoids and lead compounds for different targets were determined. It was concluded that flavonoids are a promising object for drug development and further research of pharmacology by in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models is required.

Abstract
Due to the poor lipophilicity of chlorogenic acid (CA), five CA derivatives (C2-CA, C4-CA, C6-CA, C8-CA, and C12-CA) with different lipophilicities were synthesized using acylation catalyzed by lipase in present study. The inhibitory activities and mechanisms of CA and its derivatives on α-amylase and α-glucosidase were then determined. Results showed that the inhibitory activities of CA derivatives on α-amylase and α-glucosidase were enhanced as lipophilicity increased, and the inhibitory activities of C12-CA were stronger than those of CA. IC50 values of C12-CA were 13.30 ± 0.26 μmol/mL for α-amylase and 3.42 ± 0.10 μmol/mL for α-glucosidase. C12-CA possessed the smallest Kic and Kiu values, and its inhibitory actions on α-amylase and α-glucosidase were stronger than those of CA and the other derivatives. Effects of C12-CA on microenvironments of amino acid residues and secondary structures of α-amylase and α-glucosidase were greater than those of CA and the other derivatives.

Abstract
The use of starch based nanoparticles have gained momentum in stabilizing pickering emulsions for it's numerous advantages. In present study resistant starch (RS) was isolated from lotus stem using enzymatic digestion and subjected to nanoprecipitation and ultrasonication to yield resistant starch nanoparticles (RSN). RSN of varying concentrations (2%, 10% and 20%) were used to stabilize the flax seed-oil water mixture to form pickering emulsions. The emulsions were used to nanoencapsulate ferulic acid (FA) - a well known bioactive via ultrasonication. The emulsions were lyophilized to form FA loaded lyophilized pickering emulsion (FA-LPE). The FA-LPE (2%, 10 % and 20%) were characterized using dynamic light scattering (DLS), light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infra-spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). AFM showed FA-LPE as spherical droplets embedded in the matrix with maximum peak height of 8.47 nm and maximum pit height of 1.69 nm. SEM presented FA-LPE as an irregular and continuous surface having multiple folds and holes. The ATR-FTIR spectra of all the samples displayed peaks of C = C aromatic rings of FA at 1600 cm-1 and 1439 cm-1, signifying successful encapsulation. In vitro release assay displayed more controlled release of FA from FA-LPE (20%). Bioactivity of FA-LPE was evaluated in terms of anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition and prevention against oxidative damage under simulated gastro-intestinal conditions (SGID). The bioactivity of FA-LPE (20%) was significantly higher than FA-LPE (2%) and FA-LPE (10%). Key findings reveal that pickering emulsions can prevent FA under harsh SGID conditions and provide an approach to facilitate the design of pickering emulsions with high stability for nutraceutical delivery in food and supplement products.

Abstract
Antidiabetic activity of herb Scoparia dulcis Linn (SD) used in traditional medicine is well established, yet, the molecular mechanism is not understood. In this study, in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory effects of SD aqueous extract and its kinetics were investigated and in silico analysis was carried out. SD showed potent inhibition of α-glucosidase with low IC50value (30 μg/mL). Enzyme kinetics analysis revealed the inhibition to be a mixed type of inhibition. From literature screening, we found that six compounds of SD to exhibit potent anti-diabetic activity, namely apigenin, betulinic acid, hispidulin, luteolin, scopadulcic-acid-B and scutellarein. These compounds were subjected to molecular docking. Docking studies revealed scopadulcic acid B and betulunic acid to show optimum binding constant and low free energy. Molecular dynamics simulation was carried out to further understand the interaction and stability between glucosidase and ligands of SD. Taken together, the study reveals that the potency of SD is due to synergistic effect of active phytochemicals in it and suggest that their properties can be utilized for anti-diabetic treatment strategies.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
The nano-hybrid enzyme is an ideal catalytic system that integrates various advantages from biocatalysis and nanocatalysis into homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. However, great efforts are still needed to fully understand the interactions between nanoparticles and enzymes. Here, we show chiral carbon dots (CDs) as a new functional domain for tyrosinase Cu active site modulation via remote target interaction. Three kinds of chiral CDs (LCDs-1/-2/-3; DCDs-1/-2/-3) were fabricated by thermal treatment of citric acid and L/D-aspartic acid. Then a series of CDs/tyrosinase composites (namely, nano-hybrid-enzymes) were prepared, demonstrating good regulation of enzyme catalytic kinetics. Especially, we find that LCDs-1 is an irreversible inhibitor with great inhibition effect while the others are all reversible inhibitors. Furthermore, it is suggested by both experiments and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations that the joint effect of LCDs-1 and tyrosinase makes LCDs-1 serve as a new functional domain, which has a distinguished ability to control the conformational changes of the key sites of the active center of the tyrosinase (e.g., H60) and thus the escaping behavior of copper ions and the catalytic activity. This work opens a new route for nano-hybrid-enzyme design and enzyme activity regulation with chiral carbon materials as functional domains via remote target interaction.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism of pelargonidin (PG) with tyrosinase was investigated by multi-spectroscopy and molecular docking. As a result, PG had strong inhibitory activity on tyrosinase with the IC50 value of 41.94×10-6 mol·L-1 . The inhibition type of PG against tyrosinase was determined as a mixed mode. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of tyrosinase was quenched statically by PG, and accompanied by non-radiative energy transfer. The three-dimensional (3-D) fluorescence, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and circular dichroism spectroscopies (CD) indicated that PG decreased the hydrophobicity of the micro-environment around tryptophan (Trp) and tyrosine (Tyr), which resulted in the conformational change of tyrosinase. In addition, fluorescence and molecular docking analysis indicated that PG bound to tyrosinase via hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) and van der Waals force (vdW force). We herein recommended that PG might be a potential candidate drug for the treatment of melanin-related diseases.

Anti-α-Glucosidase and Antiglycation Activities of α-Mangostin and New Xanthenone Derivatives: Enzymatic Kinetics and Mechanistic Insights through In Vitro Studies. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27020547.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia that promotes ROS formation, causing severe oxidative stress. Furthermore, prolonged hyperglycemia leads to glycation reactions with formation of AGEs that contribute to a chronic inflammatory state. This research aims to evaluate the inhibitory activity of α-mangostin and four synthetic xanthenone derivatives against glycation and oxidative processes and on α-glucosidase, an intestinal hydrolase that catalyzes the cleavage of oligosaccharides into glucose molecules, promoting the postprandial glycemic peak. Antiglycation activity was evaluated using the BSA assay, while antioxidant capacity was detected with the ORAC assay. The inhibition of α-glucosidase activity was studied with multispectroscopic methods along with inhibitory kinetic analysis. α-Mangostin and synthetic compounds at 25 µM reduced the production of AGEs, whereas the α-glucosidase activity was inhibited only by the natural compound. α-Mangostin decreased enzymatic activity in a concentration-dependent manner in the micromolar range by a reversible mixed-type antagonism. Circular dichroism revealed a rearrangement of the secondary structure of α-glucosidase with an increase in the contents of α-helix and random coils and a decrease in β-sheet and β-turn components. The data highlighted the anti-α-glucosidase activity of α-mangostin together with its protective effects on protein glycation and oxidation damage.

Abstract
Flavoalkaloids are a unique class of compounds in tea, most of which have an N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinone moiety substituted at the A ring of a catechin skeleton. 1-Ethyl-5-hydroxy-pyrrolidone, a decomposed product of theanine, was supposed to be the key intermediate to form tea flavoalkaloids. However, we have also detected another possible theanine intermediate, 1-ethyl-5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid, and speculated if there are related conjugated catechins. Herein, four novel spiro-flavoalkaloids with a spiro-γ-lactone structural moiety were isolated from Yingde green tea (Camellia sinensis var. assamica) in our continuing exploration of new chemical constituents from tea. The structures of the new compounds, spiro-flavoalkaloids A-D (1-4), were further elucidated by extensive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy together with the calculated 13C NMR, IR, UV-vis, high-resolution mass, optical rotation, experimental, and calculated circular dichroism spectra. We also provided an alternative pathway to produce these novel spiro-flavoalkaloids. Additionally, their α-glucosidase inhibitory activities were determined with IC50 values of 3.34 (1), 5.47 (2), 22.50 (3), and 15.38 (4) μM. Docking results revealed that compounds 1 and 2 mainly interacted with residues ASP-215, ARG-442, ASP-352, GLU-411, HIS-280, ARG-315, and ASN-415 of α-glucosidase through hydrogen bonds. The fluorescence intensity of α-glucosidase could be quenched by compounds 1 and 2 in a static style.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent chronic neurodegenerative disease in elderly individuals, causing dementia. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is regarded as one of the most popular drug targets for AD. Herbal secondary metabolites are frequently cited as a major source of AChE inhibitors. In the current study, baicalein, a typical bioactive flavonoid, was found to inhibit AChE competitively, with an associated IC50 value of 6.42 ± 0.07 µM, through a monophasic kinetic process. The AChE fluorescence quenching by baicalein was a static process. The binding constant between baicalein and AChE was an order of magnitude of 104 L mol−1, and hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction were the major forces for forming the baicalein−AChE complex. Circular dichroism analysis revealed that baicalein caused the AChE structure to shrink and increased its surface hydrophobicity by increasing the α-helix and β-turn contents and decreasing the β-sheet and random coil structure content. Molecular docking revealed that baicalein predominated at the active site of AChE, likely tightening the gorge entrance and preventing the substrate from entering and binding with the enzyme, resulting in AChE inhibition. The preceding findings were confirmed by molecular dynamics simulation. The current study provides an insight into the molecular-level mechanism of baicalein interaction with AChE, which may offer new ideas for the research and development of anti-AD functional foods and drugs.

Abstract
α-Glucosidase is related to the increase in postprandial blood glucose in vivo. Inhibition of α-glucosidase is supposed to be an effective approach to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Trilobatin, a member of the dihydrochalcone family, shows anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic activities. In this study, the inhibitory activity and mechanism of trilobatin on α-glucosidase were investigated using multispectroscopic and molecular docking techniques. The kinetic analysis showed that trilobatin reversibly inhibited α-glucosidase in a noncompetitive-type manner and the value of IC50 was 0.24 ± 0.02 mM. The analysis of fluorescence spectra demonstrated that the formation of the trilobatin-α-glucosidase complex was driven mainly by hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces, resulting in the conformational changes of α-glucosidase. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and circular dichroism (CD) measurements suggested that the interaction could change the micro-environment and conformation of α-glucosidase affected by trilobatin. Molecular docking analysis determined the exact binding sites of trilobatin on α-glucosidase. These results indicated that trilobatin is a strong α-glucosidase inhibitor, thus it could be conducive to ameliorate T2DM.

Abstract
Inhibition of α-glucosidase activity is closely related to the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, the potential mechanism by which 4,4-dimethylsterols inhibit α-glucosidase has not been elucidated. In this work, the inhibitory activity and mechanism of 4,4-dimethylsterols against α-glucosidase were studied through kinetic analysis, fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet spectroscopy, circular dichroism, and molecular docking. 4,4-Dimethylsterols showed higher inhibition activity against α-glucosidase than acarbose with an IC50 value of 0.71 mg/mL and a noncompetitive inhibition type. They could bind to α-glucosidase through van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds and quench its endofluorescence with a static quenching mechanism. Changes in the secondary structure of α-glucosidase were induced by its binding interaction with 4,4-dimethylsterols. Molecular docking further indicated that a hydrogen bond was generated between OH at the C-3 position of 4,4-dimethylsterols and the α-glucosidase residue Arg-442. This study provides new insights into the potential utilization of 4,4-dimethylsterols as antidiabetic phytochemicals in dietary supplements.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder with chronic high blood glucose levels, and it is associated with defects in insulin secretion, insulin resistance, or both. It is also a major public issue, affecting the world's population. This disease contributes to long-term health complications such as dysfunction and failure of multiple organs, including nerves, heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and eyes. Flavonoids are phenolic compounds found in nature and usually present as secondary metabolites in plants, vegetables, and fungi. Flavonoids possess many health benefits such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, and naturally occurring flavonoids contribute to antidiabetic effects.Many studies conducted in vivo and in vitro have proven the hypoglycemic effect of plant flavonoids. A large number of studies showed that flavonoids hold positive results in controlling the blood glucose level in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and further prevent the complications of diabetes. The future development of flavonoid-based drugs is believed to provide significant effects on diabetes mellitus and diabetes complication diseases. This review aims at summarizing the various types of flavonoids that function as hyperglycemia regulators such as inhibitors of α-glucosidase and glucose cotransporters in the body. This review article discusses the hypoglycemic effects of selected plant flavonoids namely quercetin, kaempferol, rutin, naringenin, fisetin, and morin. Four search engines, PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and SciFinder, are used to collect the data.

Abstract
In this study, the mechanisms of the delay of starch digestion by luteolin were revealed by studying the luteolin-PPA (porcine pancreatic α-amylase) interaction and luteolin-starch interaction. The luteolin-PPA interaction was investigated by inhibitory kinetics analysis, fluorescence quenching, circular dichroism (CD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and molecular docking. The results of the inhibitory kinetics revealed that luteolin was a mixed-type inhibitor of PPA and that the inhibitory action was reversible. Fluorescence spectroscopy (including fluorescence quenching and thermodynamics) and molecular docking analyses indicated that hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic forces were the main forces between PPA and luteolin. CD and FT-IR spectroscopy analyses showed that the interaction between luteolin and PPA changed the secondary structure of PPA and induced a decline in its activity. In addition, the luteolin-starch interaction was also studied using UV-visible absorption and X-ray diffraction analyses. These indicated that luteolin could bind with PPA, and that hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces may be present. Overall, luteolin delayed starch digestion not only by binding with PPA but also by binding with starch. Thus, luteolin has the potential to prevent and control diabetes by being added into starch-based food to delay starch digestion.

Abstract
In this study, the inhibitory effect and mechanism of omeprazole on α-glucosidase and nonenzymatic glycation were investigated in vitro by using multi-spectroscopic methods and molecular docking. Enzyme kinetic results showed that omeprazole inhibited α-glucosidase in a reversible and noncompetitive manner (IC50= 0.595 ± 0.003 mM). The results from fluorescence quenching and thermomechanical analyses signified that omeprazole reduced the fluorescence intensity of α-glucosidase by forming an omeprazole-α-glucosidase complex primarily driven by hydrogen bonds. Molecular docking further confirmed that hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic forces were the major driving forces for omeprazole binding to α-glucosidase. The nonenzymatic glycation assays revealed that omeprazole had a moderate inhibition against the formation of fructosamine, dicarbonyl compounds, and advanced glycation end products (AGEs). This study provides a new inhibitor of both α-glucosidase and nonenzymatic glycation and provides a practicable candidate for treating diabetes and its complications.

Abstract
The current study was aimed to discover potent inhibitors of α-glucosidase enzyme. A 25 membered library of new 1,2,3-triazole derivatives of hydrochlorothiazide (1) (HCTZ, a diuretic drug also being used for the treatment of high blood pressure) was synthesized through click chemistry approach. The structures of all derivatives 2-26 were deduced by MS, IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopic techniques. All the compounds were found to be new. Compounds 1-26 were evaluated for α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition activity. Among them, 18 compounds showed potent inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase with IC50 values between 24 and 379 µM. α-Glucosidase inhibitor drug acarbose (IC50 = 875.75 ± 2.08 μM) was used as the standard. Kinetics studies of compounds 6, 9, 11, 12, 15, 20, 23, and 24 revealed that only compound 15 as a mixed-type of inhibitor, while others were non-competitive inhibitors of α-glucosidase enzyme. All the compounds were found to be non-cytotoxic when checked against mouse fibroblast 3T3 cell line.

Abstract
α-Glucosidase was immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for selective solid-phase extraction of the enzyme’s ligands present in Aloe vera, which is a medicinal plant used for the treatment of various diseases and possesses anti-diabetic activity. One new compound, aloeacone (2), together with two known compounds, aloenin aglycone (1) and aloin A (3), were fished out as the enzyme’s ligands. The structure of 2 was determined by HR-MS and comprehensive NMR techniques. Compound 3 exhibited a weak inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase, while compounds 1 and 2 were found to possess activation effects on the enzyme for the first time. It is interesting that both an inhibitor and agonists of α-glucosidase were fished out in one experiment.

Abstract
Epicatechin gallate (ECG) is one of the main components of catechins and has multiple bioactivities. In this work, the inhibitory ability and molecular mechanism of ECG on XO were investigated systematically. ECG was determined as a mixed xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 19.33 ± 0.45 μM. The promotion of reduced XO and the inhibition of the formation of uric acid by ECG led to a decrease in O2- radical. The stable ECG-XO complex was formed by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, with the binding constant of the magnitude of 104 L mol-1, and ECG influenced the stability of the polypeptide skeleton and resulted in a more compact conformation of XO. Computational simulations further characterized the binding characteristics and revealed that the inhibitory mechanism of ECG on XO was likely that ECG bound to the vicinity of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and altered the conformation of XO, hindering the entry of substrate and the diffusion of catalytic products. ECG and allopurinol bound to different active sites of XO and exerted a synergistic inhibitory effect through enhancing their binding stability with XO and changing the target amino acid residues of XO. These findings may provide a theoretical basis for the further application of ECG in the fields of food nutrition and functional foods.

Linking the Phytochemicals and the α-Glucosidase and α-Amylase Enzyme Inhibitory Effects of Nigella sativa Seed Extracts. Foods 2021; 10:foods10081818. [PMID: 34441595 PMCID: PMC8393492 DOI: 10.3390/foods10081818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Nigella sativa L. (Ranunculaceae), commonly referred to as black seeds or black cumin, is used in popular medicine (herbal) all over the world for the treatment and prevention of several diseases, including diabetes. This study aims to investigate the inhibitory effect of N. sativa extracts and fractions against the activities of intestinal α-glucosidase and pancreatic α-amylase in vitro, and to explain the inhibitory effect of these fractions against these enzymes by identifying their active compounds responsible for this effect and determine their modes of inhibition. To do so, N. sativa hexane and acetone extracts were prepared and analyzed by GC-MS and HPLC-DAD, respectively. The hexane extract was further fractioned into eight different fractions, while the acetone extract generated eleven fractions. The extracts as well as the resulting fractions were characterized and evaluated for their potential in vitro antidiabetic activity using intestinal α-glucosidase and pancreatic α-amylase inhibitory assays in vitro. Hexane extract and fractions were less active than acetone extract and fractions. In the case of intestinal α-glucosidase activity, the acetone fraction SA3 had a high inhibitory effect on intestinal α-glucosidase activity with 72.26 ± 1.42%, comparable to the effect of acarbose (70.90 ± 1.12%). For the pancreatic α-amylase enzymatic inhibitory assay, the acetone fractions showed an inhibitory capacity close to that for acarbose. In particular, the SA2 fraction had an inhibitory effect of 67.70 ± 0.58% and was rich in apigenin and gallic acid. From these fractions, apigenin, (-)-catechin, and gallic acid were further characterized for their inhibitory actions. IC50 and inhibition mode were determined by analyzing enzyme kinetic parameters and by molecular modeling. Interestingly, (-)-catechin showed a possible synergistic effect with acarbose toward α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition, whereas apigenin showed an additive effect with acarbose toward α-amylase enzymatic inhibition. Furthermore, we studied the toxicity of N. sativa hexane and acetone extracts as well as that of acetone fractions. The result of acute toxicity evaluation demonstrated that N. sativa extracts were nontoxic up to a concentration of 10 g/kg, except for fraction SA3. Taken together, these results indicate that N. sativa extracts and/or derived compounds could constitute promising nutraceuticals for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
