A b s t r a c tThis study was performed to identify new inhibitors of protein glycation glycation is one of the major causes of late diabetic complications. In this study, terpenoids and alkaloids, isolated from different medicinal plants, along with their derivatives, were evaluated for their antiglycation activity to assess their potential cytotoxicity. Among the tested compounds, gossypol (2,2 1,6,7 and its derivat gazolidone (6), showed a potent antiglycation activity (IC aminoantipyrine (5) showed a significant antiglycation activity with IC µM, in BSA methyl isolated from aphyllin significant inhibition activity with 110.203±4.816µM, respectively. Similarly, compounds gossypol deoxypeganine hydrochloride (8), with IC respectively. The results were compared with the = Cellular cytotoxicity assay showed only gossypol acetic acid (2) and gossypolidene thiocarbamide (3) as somewhat toxic to 3T3 (mouse fibroblast) cells with IC ±0.61 and 5.00 with IC
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
