The methanol extract of Echeveria subrigida, a plant native to Mexico, has shown potential antidiabetic activity. The compounds quercetin-3-O-beta-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-glucoside, and dimers to heptamers proanthocyanidins were identified as the main contributors to the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity in the extract.
Echeveria subrigida is native to Mexico and its methanol extract (ME) shows relevant biological activities for human health, including the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory (alpha GI) activity that suggests its antidiabetic potential. Fractionation of the ME based on the alpha GI activity (IC50 in mu g/mL) showed that quercetin-3-O-beta-glucoside (131.1), isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-glucoside (166.4), and dimers to heptamers proanthocyanidins (9.6) were among the main responsible of alpha GI activity in the ME. The purified compounds showed better activity than acarbose (IC50 = 4426 mu g/mL).
