Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of marine fungal metabolites as new α-glucosidase inhibitors, in particular to a class of cyclic pentapeptide compounds and their application in α-glucosidase inhibitor hypoglycemic drugs or preventive health products. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common metabolic disease next to tumor and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which seriously endangers human life and health. Among them, the incidence of type II diabetes (T2DM) is the highest, accounting for 90% of the total cases of diabetes. In addition to exogenous insulin supplementation for diabetic patients, oral administration of different types of hypoglycemic drugs is the main strategy for treating type II diabetes. α-Glucosidase inhibitors are anti-diabetic drugs with strong specific action and significant efficacy, and have always been an ideal drug for treating type II diabetes. There are currently three α-glucosidase inhibitors used in clinical practice: acarbose, voglibose and migltol. Although this class of drugs has higher safety compared to other hypoglycemic drugs, they can also cause some adverse reactions in patients, mainly manifested as abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting and other gastrointestinal reactions, and studies have shown that gastrointestinal side effects are the main reason for the decrease in patient compliance with diabetes treatment. In addition, due to the complex preparation process of the monosaccharide or pseudo-sugar backbone structure of the existing three marketed drugs, it is easily affected by various factors, resulting in low yield. Therefore, it is of great significance to seek safer, more efficient and easily prepared α-glucosidase inhibitors for the research and development of type II diabetes treatment drugs.

[0003] Aspergillus fungi are a class of filamentous fungi that exist in different habitats in nature and are widely distributed. Aspergillus has a rich variety of enzymes and can produce various types of physiologically active metabolites, including alkaloids, polypeptides, polyketides, anthraquinones, phenazines, etc. These metabolites are closely related to human life and have wide applications and great market potential, and can be widely used in agriculture, medicine, cosmetics, biological energy development, food and other industries.

[0004] Peptides are an important class of secondary metabolites of Aspergillus fungi, which play an important role in antibacterial (bacitracin, echinocandins, daptomycin), anticancer (bleomycin) and immunosuppressive (cyclosporine) aspects. Literature reports that peptide compounds also show great research potential in reducing blood sugar. Some protein hydrolysis peptide mixtures or peptide compounds show certain alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity, but the reports of cyclopentapeptide compounds are mainly focused on the antitumor activity [invention patent application, CN113185582A, 20210730; invention patent, CN101659694A, 20100303; invention patent, CN101270154, 20080924], and there is no report on the alpha-glucosidase inhibitor hypoglycemic activity.

[0091] Example 6 Analysis of the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of cyclic pentapeptide compounds

[0092] 6.1 Main reagents, consumables and instruments: a-glucosidase (Sigma), p-nitrophenyl-a-D-glucopyranoside (p-PNG, Shanghai Macklin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.), NaH2PO4 (Shengao Bioengineering Co., Ltd.), Na2HPO4 (Shengao Bioengineering Co., Ltd.), Na2CO3 (Shengao Bioengineering Co., Ltd.), acarbose (Bayer), polyethylene 96-well plate (Ekoase Biological), incubator (Thermo), enzyme label instrument (BioTek), etc.

[0093] 6.2 Preparation of reagents: PBS buffer: 0.2622 g NaH2PO4 and 2.1747 g Na2HPO4 were added to 100 mL water; 5 mM p-PNG substrate: 75.3 mg p-PNG was added to 10 mL PBS; 0.1 M Na2CO3: 0.53 g Na2CO3 was added to 50 mL water; 0.2 U / mL enzyme: 100 U a-glucosidase was added to 1 mL PBS, stored at -70°C, and diluted 500 times before use; positive drug and test compound solution: dissolved in DMSO to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 20 mM, and diluted to the required concentration with PBS before administration.

[0094] 6.3 Experimental process: 25 μL of test compound solution was added to 50 μL of 0.2 U / mL a-glucosidase, incubated at 37°C for 10 min, then mixed with 25 μL of 5 mM p-NPG, reacted for another 5 min, and then added with 100 μL of Na2CO3 to terminate the reaction. The OD value was measured on the enzyme label instrument within 5 min and the inhibition rate was calculated. Acarbose was used as a positive control in the experiment. 405nm

[0095] 6.4 Results analysis: First, at a concentration of 400 μM, the inhibition rates of compounds 1-4 (corresponding to compounds 1-4, respectively) on a-glucosidase were determined, with each drug repeated 3 times. If the inhibition rate is stronger than that of the positive drug acarbose, it is considered to have activity. The results showed that compounds 1-4 all had stronger inhibition activity on a-glucosidase than acarbose, and the inhibition rates were all greater than 50% at this concentration (Table 3). Further, different concentrations were set to investigate the dose-dependent relationship of the a-glucosidase inhibition activity of compounds 1-4, and the results showed that they all could dose-dependently inhibit the activity of a-glucosidase (A), among which compounds 1 and 4 showed stronger inhibition activity (B and C), with IC values of 94.4 and 44.1 μM, respectively.
