alpha-Glucosidase (IC50: 0.169 mg/mL, approximately 775 uM based on MW 218.25)
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro enzyme assays demonstrate that alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35 is a potent inhibitor of alpha-glucosidase with an IC50 value of 0.169 mg/mL. Based on its molecular weight (218.25 g/mol), this corresponds to approximately 775 uM. The compound is a chromene (a benzopyran derivative) and is also known as 1-(5-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylchromen-6-yl)ethanone. No other specific biological activities (e.g., antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxicity) have been reported for this compound. The chromene scaffold is known for diverse biological activities including anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo data available for alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35. As an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor with potent activity (IC50 0.169 mg/mL), it has significant potential for postprandial blood glucose reduction in animal models of diabetes and could be a candidate for in vivo efficacy studies. However, published in vivo studies have not been reported. The compound is isolated from Brickellia cavanillesii, a plant used in traditional medicine, suggesting potential ethnopharmacological relevance.

| Enzyme Assay |
Recombinant or yeast alpha-glucosidase enzyme (commercial source) is incubated with varying concentrations of alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35 (0.01-1 mg/mL) in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8, 100 mM) at 37degC for 10-15 minutes. The substrate p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (pNPG, 5 mM) is added to initiate the reaction in a total volume of 200 uL. After incubation for 20-30 minutes at 37degC, the reaction is terminated by adding sodium carbonate solution (Na2CO3, 1 M, 100 uL). The amount of released p-nitrophenol is measured spectrophotometrically at 405 nm using a microplate reader. The percentage of enzyme inhibition is calculated relative to control wells without inhibitor (containing DMSO vehicle). IC50 values are determined by fitting dose-response curves using non-linear regression analysis. The reported IC50 is 0.169 mg/mL. Each assay is typically performed in triplicate. Acarbose is used as a positive control.

| Cell Assay |
No published cell-based assays for alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35. For potential cellular studies, Caco-2 human intestinal epithelial cells can be used as a model for intestinal alpha-glucosidase inhibition. Caco-2 cells are cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 1% non-essential amino acids, and antibiotics. Cells are seeded in 96-well plates and grown to confluence for 14-21 days to allow differentiation, during which they express brush border alpha-glucosidases and other enterocyte markers. Differentiated cells are treated with alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35 (0.05-1 mg/mL) in serum-free medium for 30-60 minutes at 37degC. After treatment, maltose (10 mM) or sucrose (10 mM) is added as substrate and incubated for an additional 30-60 minutes. Glucose produced from disaccharide hydrolysis is measured in the supernatant using a glucose oxidase-peroxidase (GOD-POD) colorimetric assay kit. Cell viability is assessed by MTT or LDH assay to ensure that observed effects are not due to cytotoxicity. The chromene structure suggests potential cellular permeability, making cell-based studies feasible.

| Animal Protocol |
No published in vivo animal study for alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35. Based on its potent alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity, a potential in vivo protocol would involve oral administration of alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35 to male ICR mice (20-30 g) or Sprague-Dawley rats. The compound is formulated in 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC-Na) or 10% DMSO in saline. A typical dosing range would be 10-100 mg/kg, administered by oral gavage 30 minutes before an oral sucrose load (2 g/kg). Blood samples are collected from the tail vein at 0, 30, 60, and 120 minutes post-sucrose administration. Blood glucose levels are measured using a glucometer or enzymatic glucose assay kit (GOD-POD). The area under the curve (AUC) for blood glucose is calculated for 0-120 minutes. Reduction in AUC compared to vehicle-treated control indicates in vivo alpha-glucosidase inhibition. The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) using glucose (2 g/kg) can also be performed to assess non-specific effects. This protocol has not been validated for this specific compound.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific pharmacokinetic data for alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35. As a small chromene (MW 218.25, LogP 2.78), the compound is relatively lipophilic and is expected to have good oral absorption following administration. The chromene scaffold is known to have favorable drug-like properties. Metabolism would likely occur in the liver via phase I (oxidation, demethylation) and phase II (glucuronidation, sulfation) enzymes. Plasma half-life, Cmax, AUC, clearance, protein binding, and tissue distribution have not been determined. Solubility: soluble in DMSO (typical solubility for chromenes). In vivo formulation options include 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% saline or 10% DMSO + 90% corn oil. Storage: powder at -20degC for 3 years.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data for alpha-Glucosidase-IN-35. As a naturally occurring chromene isolated from Brickellia cavanillesii (a plant used in traditional medicine), the compound is expected to have low acute toxicity. Chromenes are a class of compounds known for diverse biological activities and generally favorable safety profiles. However, systematic toxicological studies have not been performed. For research use, standard laboratory safety precautions (gloves, lab coat, eye protection) should be followed. Avoid inhalation, skin contact, and ingestion. Dispose of according to hazardous waste regulations. Not for human use.
