Chemical investigation of the ethanol extract of the leaves of (P. Beauv) led to the isolation of two new caffeic acid glycosides, Newboulasides A and B . The structures of these compounds were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic methods, including 1D-, 2D-NMR and MS data. The extracts and fractions and the isolated compounds were evaluated for their inhibition of α-amylase enzyme activity. The extract showed inhibition of α-amylase activity with IC value of 102.91 µg/mL, while the isolated compounds ( and exhibited pronounced inhibition with IC values of 4.95 and 4.44 µg/mL respectively, comparable to the standard - Acarbose with IC value of 4.05 µg/mL. Our findings demonstrated that the inhibition of α-amylase activity may be part of the mechanisms through which exhibits antidiabetic effect.
(毕氏马唐)叶的乙醇提取物的化学成分研究导致了两种新的咖啡酸糖苷的分离,即 Newboulasides A 和 B。这些化合物的结构是基于广泛的光谱方法确定的,包括 1D-NMR、2D-NMR 和 MS 数据。提取物和馏分以及分离得到的化合物都进行了α-淀粉酶酶抑制活性的评估。提取物对α-淀粉酶活性的抑制作用的 IC 值为 102.91 µg/mL,而分离得到的化合物( 和 )表现出明显的抑制作用,IC 值分别为 4.95 和 4.44 µg/mL,与标准阿卡波糖的 IC 值 4.05 µg/mL 相当。我们的研究结果表明,α-淀粉酶活性的抑制可能是 发挥抗糖尿病作用的部分机制。
