Inhibition of α-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase, and antioxidant property of Myrcia hatschbachiiD. Legrand containing gallic and ellagic acids

Abstract: Several species of the Myrcia genus have been used in folk medicine to treat diabetes. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the inhibitory activity of α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase in the crude extract (EBF) and in the ethyl acetate fraction (FFA) of Myrcia hatschbachii, as well as to identify isolated phenolic compounds and to evaluate the antioxidant property and preliminary in vitro toxicity against Artemia salina. EBF (IC50: 3.21 μg/mL) and FFA (IC50: 1.14 μg/mL) showed in… Show more

“…However, long-term use of these drugs is often reported to cause some severe side effects, such as insomnia, headaches, hypoglycemia, weight gain, constipation, and renal damage [ 14 , 15 ]. Efforts have been directed toward discovering medicines from natural products due to their low costs, relative safety, probability of high compliance, and low incidences of undesirable side effects [ 16 ]. Based on previous studies, secondary metabolites of natural products, such as phenolics, alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, and glycosides, have shown potent pancreatic lipase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ].…”

“…In view of the advantages of good antibacterial potency, antioxidant property and biocompatibility [ 32 ], gallic acid was chosen as a reducing agent for silver nanoparticle synthesis from silver ions. GA–Ag NPs are spherical in shape, with good stability and polydispersity ( Fig.…”

“…In order to verify the specificity and feasibility of the synthetic immobilized PPL, a standard mixture model consisting of hesperidin (lipase inhibitor, IC 50 = 64.92 µM, as positive control) and gallic acid (no lipase inhibitory activity, as negative control) was designed for validation [ 24 , 39 ]. The HPLC analysis results of each eluent are shown in Figure 7 , where S1 is the chromatogram of the model mixture, and S2 is the chromatogram of the methanol elution of the MMOF after ligand fishing.…”
