Three cyclopeptide alkaloids, nummularine-R (1), nummularin-C (2), and hemsine-A (3), isolated from locally used antidiabetic plant Ziziphus oxyphylla Edgw (Rhamnaceae), showed a potent alpha-glucosidase inhibition, and moderate anti-glycation activities but no inhibition for alpha-chymotrypsin. This is the first report of the antidiabetic activities of cyclopeptide alkaloids. All compounds 1-3 exhibited inhibition for alpha-glucosidase enzyme having IC50 = 212.1 +/- 1.6 mu M, 215.1 +/- 1.2 mu M, and 394.0 +/- 2.4 mu M respectively, which are more potent than the standard, 1-deoxynojirimycin (IC50 = 441.0 +/- 0.1 mu M). Compounds 1 (IC50 = 720.2 +/- 10.9 mu M), and 3 (IC50 = 277.7 +/- 7.6 mu M) were also found to have a moderate anti-glycation activity. All compounds were non-toxic to PC-3 cell line. These compounds seem to have potential to control the postprandial hyperglycemia, and associated diabetes complications due to glycation of proteins. (C) 2011 Phytochemical Society of Europe.
