Abstract
Black sesame (Sesamum indicum) meal is an agricultural waste obtained after oil extraction. It is used as a key protein source in animal feed. Previous investigations have indicated that its health benefits, such as antidiabetic activity, are mainly due to its high lignan content. In the present study, we applied α-glucosidase inhibitory guided isolation to identify the active components responsible for the above claim. Twenty-nine compounds, mostly lignans, were isolated and identified, of which five (2-3, 12-13, and 28) were newly isolated. Of the isolated compounds, 20 and 21 were the most potent inhibitors, retarding enzyme function in noncompetitive and uncompetitive manners. Structure-activity relationship analysis suggested that the number of phenolic hydroxyl groups in the structures was significantly related to the inhibitory effect against α-glucosidase. A gastrointestinal digestion study of the major lignan sesaminol triglucoside (STG, 9) suggested that the transformation of dioxymethylene and glucoside moieties gradually began in the late process, thus enhancing the α-glucosidase inhibitory effect.

Phytochemical investigation, molecular docking studies and DFT calculations on the antidiabetic and cytotoxic activities of Gmelina philippensis CHAM. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 303:115938. [PMID: 36410572 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Gmelina philippensis CHAM is an ornamental plant that is distributed in South Asia and warm regions of the Mediterranean area. The plant is traditionally applied in folk medicine for the treatment of diabetes. AIM OF THE STUDY To evaluate the cytotoxic and the antidiabetic activities of the ethanolic extract of G. philippensis aerial parts. To isolate the metabolite(s) responsible for these activities and to elucidate the mechanism of action by molecular docking study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Compounds (1-11) were isolated using various chromatographic techniques and their structures were determined by NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis. The cytotoxic effect was tested using viability test and MTT assay. Antidiabetic activity was evaluated by measuring the inhibitory activity of the ethanolic extracts and compounds against α-glucosidase and α-amylase activities. Modeling and docking simulations were performed using Molecular Operating Environment software and the crystal structure of protein kinases CDK2, (1PYE) and AKT1 (4GV1), in addition to α-glucosidase (3TOP) and α-amylase (2QV4). RESULTS Compounds 2, 3 and 8 were isolated for the first time from the plant and identified as: gmelinol (2), apigenin (3) and tyrosol (8). While β-sitosterol-3-O- β-D-glucopyranoside (4) vicenin-II (7), rhoifolin (9), isorhoifolin (11) were isolated for the first time from the genus, along with and the new iridoid 6-O-α-L-(2″-O-benzoyl-4″-O-trans-p-methoxycinnamoyl)rhamnopyranosyl-1α- β-D-glucopyranoside catalpolgenin (6). In addition, to the previously reported compounds: mixture of β -sitosterol and stigmasterol (1), and 6- O- α-L-(2″,3″,4″-tri-O -benzoyl)rhamnopyranosylcatalpol (5) and 6-O-α-L-(2″-O-trans-p-methoxycinnamoyl)rhamnopyranosylcatalpol (10). The cytotoxic activity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG-2) cell lines for compounds 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11 was conducted using cisplatin as a standard. Gmelinol (2) exhibited strong cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 cell lines with IC 50 value of 3.6 ± 0.1 μg/ml which is more potent than the standard cisplatin IC 50 = 8.7 ± 0.9 μg/ml. Molecular modeling of 2 against diverse targets of protein kinases suggested that CDK-2 and AKT-1 could be the dual probable kinase targets for its cytotoxic action. Compound 2 showed α-amylase inhibition activity with IC 50 value of 60.9 (μg/ml) while, compounds 5 showed strong α-glucosidase inhibition activity with IC 50 values of 41.7 (μg/ml) compared to acarbose with IC 50 value of 34.7, 30.6 (μg/ml). Molecular docking of compounds 2 and 5 on α-glucosidase (3TOP) and α-amylase (2QV4) enzymes revealed high binding affinity and active site interactions comparable to native ligand acarbose. CONCLUSION The ethanolic extract of G. philippensis CHAM aerial parts is effective against HepG-2 cell lines, α-amylase and α-glucocidase activities. Biologically guided isolation indicated that compounds 2 and 5 are responsible for these activities. These results were supported by DMF calculations that detected the molecular areas responsible for protein interactions shown via docking studies.

Thioether and Ether Furofuran Lignans: Semisynthesis, Reaction Mechanism, and Inhibitory Effect against α-Glucosidase and Free Radicals. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27249001.

Abstract
The transformation of sesame lignans is interesting because the derived products possess enhanced bioactivity and a wide range of potential applications. In this study, the semisynthesis of 28 furofuran lignans using samin (5) as the starting material is described. Our methodology involved the protonation of samin (5) to generate an oxocarbenium ion followed by the attack from two different nucleophiles, namely, thiols (RSH) and alcohols (ROH). The highly diastereoselective thioether and ether furofuran lignans were obtained, and their configurations were confirmed by 2D NMR and X-ray crystallography. The mechanism underlying the reaction was studied by monitoring 1H NMR and computational calculations, that is, the diastereomeric α- and β-products were equally formed through the SN1-like mechanism, while the β-product was gradually transformed via an SN2-like mechanism to the α-congener in the late step. Upon evaluation of the inhibitory effect of the synthesized lignans against α-glucosidases and free radicals, the lignans 7f and 7o of the phenolic hydroxyl group were the most potent inhibitors. Additionally, the mechanisms underlying the α-glucosidase inhibition of 7f and 7o were verified to be of a mixed manner and noncompetitive inhibition, respectively. The results indicated that both 7f and 7o possessed promising antidiabetic activity, while simultaneously inhibiting α-glucosidases and free radicals.

Abstract
SCOPE The aim of this study is to investigate the antidiabetic effect of lariciresinol (LSR) in C2C12 myotubes and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. METHODS AND RESULTS To investigate antidiabetic potential of LSR, α-glucosidase inhibitory assay, molecular docking, glucose uptake assay, western blot assay on antidiabetic biomarkers are performed. STZ-induced diabetic model is used for in vivo study by calculating oral glucose tolerance test, histochemical examination, and glycogen assay. LSR inhibits α-glucosidase activity with an IC50 value of 6.97 ± 0.37 µM and acts as a competitive inhibitor with an inhibitory constant (Ki) value of 0.046 µM. In C2C12 cells, LSR activates insulin signaling leading to glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation and augmented glucose uptake. Furthermore, in Streptozotocin (STZ)-treated diabetic mice, 3 weeks of oral LSR administration (10 mg kg-1 ) considerably decrease blood glucose levels, while increasing insulin levels in an oral glucose tolerance test, improve pancreatic islet size, increase GLUT4 expression, and significantly enhance insulin signaling in skeletal muscle. LSR treatment also activates glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) resulting in improved glycogen content. CONCLUSION The findings indicate a potential usefulness for oral LSR in the management and prevention of diabetes by enhancing glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
Several studies have been conducted and published on medicinal plants used to manage Diabetes Mellitus worldwide. It is of great interest to review available studies from a country or a region to resort to similarities/discrepancies and data quality. Here, we examined data related to ethnopharmacology and bioactivity of antidiabetic plants used in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Data were extracted from Google Scholar, Medline/PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, the Wiley Online Library, Web of Science, and other documents focusing on ethnopharmacology, pharmacology, and phytochemistry antidiabetic plants used in the Democratic Republic of Congo from 2005 to September 2021. The Kew Botanic Royal Garden and Plants of the World Online web databases were consulted to verify the taxonomic information. CAMARADES checklist was used to assess the quality of animal studies and Jadad scores for clinical trials. In total, 213 plant species belonging to 72 botanical families were reported. Only one plant, Droogmansia munamensis, is typically native to the DRC flora; 117 species are growing in the DRC and neighboring countries; 31 species are either introduced from other regions, and 64 are not specified. Alongside the treatment of Diabetes, about 78.13% of plants have multiple therapeutic uses, depending on the study sites. Experimental studies explored the antidiabetic activity of 133 plants, mainly in mice, rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. Several chemical classes of antidiabetic compounds isolated from 67 plant species have been documented. Rare phase II clinical trials have been conducted. Critical issues included poor quality methodological protocols, author name incorrectly written (16.16%) or absent (14.25%) or confused with a synonym (4.69%), family name revised (17.26%) or missing (1.10%), voucher number not available 336(92.05%), ecological information not reported (49.59%). Most plant species have been identified and authenticated (89.32%). Hundreds of plants are used to treat Diabetes by traditional healers in DRC. However, most plants are not exclusively native to the local flora and have multiple therapeutic uses. The analysis showed the scarcity or absence of high-quality, in-depth pharmacological studies. There is a need to conduct further studies of locally specific species to fill the gap before their introduction into the national pharmacopeia.

Abstract
The conversion of sesame lignans is of interest because the derived products may have potential applications. Here, in investigating the transformation of sesamin and sesamolin, main endogenous sesame lignans in sesame seeds, in both acidic aqueous and anhydrous systems, 7R,7'S-samin was identified as one of the major products of sesamolin in both systems catalyzed with common inorganic acids, but sesaminol was not generated. In investigating the effect of different oxidizing agents on the acid-catalyzed conversion of sesame lignans, 7R,7'S-samin was still the major product of sesamolin, whereas sesamolin as well as 7R,7'S-samin stereoselectively rendered 7R,7'R-samin in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide may play a role in stabilizing the transitional oxonium ions, derived from acid hydrolysis of sesamolin or 7R,7'S-samin by forming a seven-membered ring intermediate through hydrogen bonding, to consequently produce 7R,7'R-samin as the final product.

Abstract
A new series of furofuran lignans containing catechol moiety were prepared from the reactions between lignans and a variety of phenolics. All 22 products obtained were evaluated against three different α-glucosidases (maltase, sucrase and Baker's yeast glucosidase) and DPPH radical. Of furofuran lignans evaluated, β-14, having two catechol moieties and one acetoxy group, was the most potent inhibitor against Baker's yeast, maltase, and sucrase with IC50 values of 5.3, 25.7, and 12.9 µM, respectively. Of interest, its inhibitory potency toward Baker's yeast was 28 times greater than standard drug, acarbose and its DPPH radical scavenging (SC50 11.2 µM) was 130 times higher than commercial antioxidant BHT. Subsequent investigation on mechanism underlying the inhibitory effect of β-14 revealed that it blocked Baker's yeast and sucrase functions by mixed-type inhibition while it exerted non-competitive inhibition toward maltase. Molecular dynamics simulation of the most potent furofuran lignans (4, α-8b, α-14, and β-14) with the homology rat intestinal maltase at the binding site revealed that the hydrogen bond interactions from catechol, acetoxy, and quinone moieties of furofuran lignans were the key interaction to bind tightly to α-glucosidase. The results indicated that β-14 possessed promising antidiabetic activity through simultaneously inhibiting α-glucosidases and free radicals.

Abstract
A series of novel flavonolignans were synthesized by the reaction between a lignan named samin (1) and a range of flavonoids. This simple and rapid approach allowed direct assembly of these two bulky motifs in good yields without the formation of byproducts. Upon evaluation of antidiabetic activity of the synthesized products, epicatechinosamin (β-2g) was the most active α-glucosidase inhibitor toward maltase and sucrase. The kinetic study indicated that β-2 g inhibited the enzymes in a mixed manner of competitive and noncompetitive inhibition.

Abstract
Since PTP1B enzyme was discovered in 1988, it has captured the research community's attention. This landmark discovery has stimulated numerous research studies on a variety of human diseases, including cancer, inflammation, and diabetes. Tremendous progress has been made in finding PTP1B inhibitors and exploring PTP1B regulatory mechanisms. This review investigates for the natural PTP1B inhibitors, and focuses on the common characteristics of the discovered structures and structure-activity relationships. To facilitate understanding, all the natural compounds are here divided into five different classes (fatty acids, phenolics, terpenoids, steroids, and alkaloids), according to their skeletons. These PTP1B inhibitors of scaffold structures could serve as a theoretical basis for new concept drug discovery and design.
