Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medicine, in particular to a hesperetin derivative containing a thiosemicarbazone structure, and also relates to the application of the hesperetin derivative containing the thiosemicarbazone structure in antioxidation and anti-alpha-glucosidase. BACKGROUND
[0002] Free radicals are associated with the progression of a variety of health conditions in humans, such as cancer, heart disease, neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's disease, etc. The human body is equipped with a complex antioxidant defense system that can effectively counteract the harmful effects of free radicals. Numerous studies have shown that antioxidants can improve overall health by slowing down or preventing the development of degenerative diseases and age-related diseases. Therefore, developing new antioxidants with higher efficacy and fewer side effects is an important research direction in the field of medicinal chemistry.
[0003] Diabetes, especially type II diabetes, has become a global epidemic, affecting more than 350 million people worldwide and is considered an important factor leading to death. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are an important class of drugs for the treatment of type II diabetes. Common alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, such as acarbose, miglitol and voglibose, are widely used in clinical practice to delay carbohydrate digestion, thereby reducing postprandial blood glucose peaks and improving glycemic control. Therefore, developing new alpha-glucosidase inhibitors with higher efficacy and fewer side effects is a continuing research direction in the field of medicinal chemistry. SUMMARY

[0009] Experimental Example 1: Determination of the DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity of the compound
[0010] DPPH scavenging activity determination: 5 mg of the compound was dissolved in 100 mL of methanol to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 50 pg / mL; then 160 pL of the stock solution and 40 pL of a DPPH solution with a concentration of 0.5 pM were added to a 96-well plate to obtain a reaction mixture with a concentration of 40 pg / mL, which was reacted in the dark for 30 min, and then its absorbance value was measured at 517 nm using a full-wavelength multifunctional enzyme marker, with dimethyl sulfoxide as the negative control and vitamin C as the positive control.
[0011] ABTS scavenging activity determination: 0.2 mL of a K2S2O8 solution with a concentration of 2.6 mM was mixed with 0.2 mL of an ABTS solution with a concentration of 7.4 mM, which was diluted 50 times with a PBS buffer with a pH of 7.4 and used after being reacted in the dark at room temperature for 12 h; then 6.25 mg of the compound was dissolved in 100 mL of methanol to obtain a stock solution with a concentration of 62.5 pg / mL, and then 160 pL of the stock solution and 40 pL of the ABTS solution were added to a 96-well plate to obtain a reaction mixture with a concentration of 50 pg / mL, which was reacted in the dark for 30 min, and then its absorbance value was measured at 734 nm using a full-wavelength multifunctional enzyme marker, with dimethyl sulfoxide as the negative control and vitamin E as the positive control.
[0012] The calculation formula for the DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity of the compound is as follows:
[0013] Scavenging activity (%) = (OD value of the control group - OD value of the treatment group) / OD value of the control group x 100%;

[0020] The formula for calculating the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the compound is as follows:
[0021] α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (%) = (OD value of the control group - OD value of the treatment group) / OD value of the control group x 100%;
