Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects glucose, lipid, and protein metabolism. Targeting these metabolic derangements can optimize the therapeutic strategies for this disease. Utilizing in vitro and in silico models, this study investigated the ability of aqueous and ethanol extracts of to inhibit α-amylase, α-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase, and protein glycation. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to identify the compounds found in the stem bark of . In silico analysis determined the binding mode and mechanism of interactions between the enzymes and phytochemicals. With an IC value of 11.47 µg/ml, the aqueous extract demonstrated higher inhibitory efficacy against α-amylase compared to the ethanol extract (IC 19.88 µg/ml). However, the ethanol extract had stronger inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase, and protein glycation compared to the aqueous extract (IC values of 3.05, 32.85, 0.0014 versus 25.72, 332.42, 0.018 µg/ml respectively). Quercetin ranked highest in binding energy with α-amylase (-6.6 kcal/mol), α-glucosidase (-6.6 kcal/mol), and pancreatic lipase (-5.6 kcal/mol). This was followed by rhamnetin (6.5, 6.5, and 6.1 kcal/mol respectively). Hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, and pi-pi stacking are forces responsible for the binding of quercetin and rhamnetin to these enzymes. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that the lead phytochemicals formed stable and energetically stabilized complexes with the target proteins. This study showed that the extracts of stem bark had significant in vitro anti-diabetic, anti-pancreatic lipase, and anti-protein glycation activities. The strong binding affinities of some of the identified compounds could be responsible for the inhibitory potential of the extracts. stem bark could be further explored as a natural remedy for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications.
糖尿病是一种影响葡萄糖、脂质和蛋白质代谢的慢性代谢紊乱疾病。针对这些代谢紊乱情况可以优化该疾病的治疗策略。本研究利用体外和计算机模拟模型,研究了[植物名称]水提取物和乙醇提取物抑制α-淀粉酶、α-葡萄糖苷酶、胰脂肪酶和蛋白质糖基化的能力。采用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)鉴定[植物名称]茎皮中发现的化合物。计算机模拟分析确定了酶与植物化学物质之间的结合模式和相互作用机制。水提取物对α-淀粉酶的抑制效果优于乙醇提取物,其IC值为11.47μg/ml,而乙醇提取物的IC值为19.88μg/ml。然而,与水提取物相比,乙醇提取物对α-葡萄糖苷酶、胰脂肪酶和蛋白质糖基化具有更强的抑制活性(IC值分别为3.05、32.85、0.0014μg/ml,而水提取物的IC值分别为25.72、332.42、0.018μg/ml)。槲皮素与α-淀粉酶(-6.6千卡/摩尔)、α-葡萄糖苷酶(-6.6千卡/摩尔)和胰脂肪酶(-5.6千卡/摩尔)的结合能最高。其次是鼠李素(分别为6.5、6.5和6.1千卡/摩尔)。氢键、疏水相互作用和π-π堆积是槲皮素和鼠李素与这些酶结合的作用力。分子动力学模拟表明,主要植物化学物质与靶蛋白形成了稳定且能量稳定的复合物。本研究表明,[植物名称]茎皮提取物具有显著的体外抗糖尿病、抗胰脂肪酶和抗蛋白质糖基化活性。一些已鉴定化合物的强结合亲和力可能是提取物具有抑制潜力的原因。[植物名称]茎皮可作为治疗糖尿病及其并发症的天然药物进一步探索。
