Synthesis of new diphenyl urea-clubbed imine analogs and its Implications in diabetic management through in vitro and in silico approaches

Anam Rubbab Pasha et al.

Summary: This study synthesized Schiff bases of 1,3-dipheny urea and evaluated their anti-diabetic capability by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase. The compounds showed potent inhibition with IC50 values ranging from 2.14-115 mu M. Docking results indicated the important role of Glu277 and Asn350 in stabilizing these compounds at the active site of the enzyme. These molecules exhibited promising pharmacokinetics, physicochemical properties, and drug-likeness profile. The anti-diabetic potential of these compounds highlights their medical importance and potential therapeutic options for treating type II diabetes.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel isatin-hydrazide conjugates as potential antidiabetic agents

Rima D. Alharthy et al.

Summary: The objective of this study was to find substances with potential anti-hyperglycemic effects by blocking alpha-glucosidase. Several novel indole-hydrazide conjugates (3a-3r) were synthesized and examined using spectroscopic methods. These compounds showed potent inhibition of alpha-glucosidase, with IC50 values ranging from 0.51-42.91 μM, and the compounds 3p and 3o demonstrated the highest inhibition with IC50 values of 0.51 +/- 0.06 and 1.57 +/- 0.08 μM, respectively. The structure-activity relationships indicated that the alpha-glucosidase potential of these compounds varied with different substituents on the novel indole-hydrazide. Kinetics and docking examination revealed that the active compounds accommodated well in the active site of alpha-glucosidase and displayed mixed-type inhibition.

Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular modelling of 3-Formyl-6-isopropylchromone derived thiosemicarbazones as a-glucosidase inhibitors

Rabia Basri et al.

Summary: In this study, the synthesis, alpha-glucosidase inhibition, structure activity relationship, pharmacokinetics, and docking analysis of novel chromone-based thiosemicarbazones were reported. The derivatives exhibited potent activity against alpha-glucosidase, with certain compounds showing higher inhibitory activity than the standard acarbose. Moreover, a statistically significant 2D-QSAR model was developed for further design of potent thiosemicarbazones as alpha-glucosidase inhibitors.

Alpha-amylase as molecular target for treatment of diabetes mellitus: A comprehensive review

Navjot Kaur et al.

Summary: Alpha-amylase is a calcium metalloenzyme that aids digestion but also causes postprandial hyperglycaemia, making it a therapeutic target for managing blood glucose levels. Various enzymatic inhibitors have been effective in targeting this enzyme, leading to interest in developing potent alpha-amylase inhibitor molecules. The focus of research has been on designing different derivatives of drug molecules to interact with the target receptor and exhibit biological activities.
