Abstract

α-Glucosidase inhibitory activity of galbanic acid and its new amide derivatives 3a–n were investigated. Galbanic acid and compounds 3a–n showed excellent anti-α-glucosidase activity with IC50 values ranging from 0.3 ± 0.3 μM to 416.0 ± 0.2 μM in comparison to positive control acarbose with IC50 value of = 750.0 ± 5.6. In the kinetic study, the most potent compound 3h demonstrated a competitive mode of inhibition with Ki = 0.57 µM. The interaction of the most potent compound 3h with the α-glucosidase was further elaborated by in vitro Circular dichroism assessment and in silico molecular docking and Molecular dynamics studies. Compound 3h was also non-cytotoxic on human normal cells. In silico study on pharmacokinetics and toxicity profile of the most potent galbanic acid derivatives demonstrated that these compounds are valuable lead compounds for further study in order to achieve new anti-diabetic agents. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
