In Vitro Anti-Oxidant, In Vivo Anti-Hyperglycemic, and Untargeted Metabolomics-Aided-In Silico Screening of Macroalgae Lipophilic Extracts for Anti-Diabetes Mellitus and Anti-COVID-19 Potential Metabolites. Metabolites 2023; 13:1177. [PMID: 38132859 PMCID: PMC10745437 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13121177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
COVID-19 patients with comorbid DM face more severe outcomes, indicating that hyperglycemic conditions exacerbate SARS-CoV-2 infection. Negative side effects from existing hyperglycemia treatments have urged the need for safer compounds. Therefore, sourcing potential compounds from marine resources becomes a new potential approach. Algal lipids are known to possess beneficial activities for human health. However, due to limitations in analyzing large amounts of potential anti-hyperglycemic and anti-COVID-19-related marine metabolites, there is an increasing need for new approaches to reduce risks and costs. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to identify potential compounds in macroalgae Sargassum cristaefolium, Tricleocarpa cylindrica, and Ulva lactuca lipophilic extracts for treating DM and COVID-19 by an integrated approach utilizing in vitro anti-oxidant, in vivo anti-hyperglycemic, and metabolomic-integrated in silico approaches. Among them, S. cristaefolium and T. cylindrica showed potential anti-hyperglycemic activity, with S. cristaefolium showing the highest anti-oxidant activity. A GC-MS-based untargeted metabolomic analysis was used to profile the lipophilic compounds in the extracts followed by an in silico molecular docking analysis to examine the binding affinity of the compounds to anti-DM and anti-COVID-19 targets, e.g., α-amylase, α-glucosidase, ACE2, and TMPRSS2. Notably, this study reveals for the first time that steroid-derived compounds in the macroalgae T. cylindrica had higher binding activity than known ligands for all the targets mentioned. Studies on drug likeliness indicate that these compounds possess favorable drug properties. These findings suggest the potential for these compounds to be further developed to treat COVID-19 patients with comorbid DM. The information in this study would be a basis for further in vitro and in vivo analysis. It would also be useful for the development of these candidate compounds into drug formulations.

Gupta N, Singh R, Nayak SK, Das M, Jan K. Development and validation of multiresidue method for organophosphorus pesticides in lanolin using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY : JMS 2022; 57:e4894. [PMID: 36369744 DOI: 10.1002/jms.4894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2022] [Revised: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Lanolin, also known as wool wax, is derived from sheep and has diverse applications in food, cosmetic, textile and lubricant industries. Owing to its direct contact with human, there is a need of studying pesticide residues as contaminants in lanolin. The present study describes a single novel hyphenated gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) technique for the quantification of 14 organophosphorus (OP) pesticides (tecnazene, propetamphos, diazinon, dichlofenthion, chlorpyrifos methyl, fenchlorphos, malathion, chlorpyrifos, pirimiphos ethyl, bromophos ethyl, tetrachlorvinphos, ethion, phosalone, and coumaphos) in lanolin using electrospray ionization (EI) with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) acquisition mode. The method is simple in terms of sample preparation steps based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD). The method was found to be linear over the analytical range of 0.05-2.0 μg/g, with acceptable coefficient of determination (r2 ≥ 0.99) for all the 14 pesticides. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of the method were found to be less than 0.05 and 0.1 μg/g, respectively, for all the 14 OP pesticide residues. The precision and accuracy of the method were found to be within the acceptable limits, that is, recoveries in the range of 83.5%-104.1% with less than 12.5% of relative standard deviation for all the pesticides. The multiresidue method for estimating pesticide residues employing GC-MS/MS technique will be useful for OP pesticide levels in large number of lanolin samples.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION α-Amylase inhibitors from natural sources are of interest for new drug development for the treatment of diabetes mellitus (DM). High-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) coupled bioassay guided isolation of bioactive compounds has been improved within last few years. OBJECTIVE A microchemical derivatised HPTLC-coupled attenuated total reflectance-Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was employed for profiling α-amylase inhibitor from the aerial part of Asparagus racemosus Willd. METHODOLOGY Asparagus racemosus Willd. aerial part extracted with different solvents (n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and methanol) and assayed to detect free radical scavengers and α-amylase inhibitor by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and starch-iodine assay method, respectively. HPTLC-coupled ATR-FTIR and NMR spectroscopy was used to identify the α-amylase inhibitor. RESULTS Methanolic extract of A. racemosus showed highest antioxidant activity (21.99 μg GAE/μL) where n-hexane extract showed lowest antioxidant activity (5.87 μg GAE/μL). The α-amylase inhibition was recorded as highest and lowest in ethyl acetate extract (13.13 AE/μL) and n-hexane extract (3.92 AE/μL), respectively. The deep blue zone of α-amylase sprayed TLC plate of extracts with hRF = 72 analysed for ATR-FTIR and NMR spectroscopy which revealed the presence of stigmasterol is responsible for α-amylase inhibition. CONCLUSION The present work establishes the α-amylase inhibiting properties of A. racemosus maintaining its use for the treatment of DM as a traditional medicine. Bioassay guided isolation through HPTLC-coupled ATR-FTIR and NMR spectroscopy offers an effective method for the exploration of bioactive compounds such as α-amylase inhibitor from complex plant extracts.
