[0083] Example 2 Evaluation of LMG pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity
[0084] Lipase is an enzyme necessary for the gastrointestinal tract to break down fat. It can bind to the serine residues of gastric and pancreatic lipase, inactivating lipase and preventing it from breaking down fat in food into free fatty acids, thereby inhibiting the utilization and absorption of fat. Therefore, lipase inhibitors can promote the utilization and absorption of fat.
[0085] The present invention adopts a microplate method to detect the inhibitory activity of LMG of different concentrations on pancreatic lipase, with orlistat as a positive control and 4-methylumbelliferyl oleate as a substrate, and the method is as follows:
[0086] (1) Preparation of buffer solution: Dissolve Tris powder in ultrapure water, adjust the solution pH to 8.0 after constant volume, and obtain a Tris-HCl buffer solution with a system concentration of 13 mM.
[0087] (2) Preparation of compounds: Weigh the compound to be tested and dissolve it in DMSO reagent to obtain a test solution with a final concentration of 20 mM.
[0088] (3) Preparation of pancreatic lipase test solution: The reaction system uses 1 mg / mL pancreatic lipase working solution, that is, after weighing pancreatic lipase powder, add Tris-HCl buffer and place on ice for use.
[0089] (4) Preparation of substrate: 4-Methylumbelliferyl oleate was dissolved in DMSO to form a 5 mM solution, and then diluted with Tris-HCl to form a 0.1 mM substrate solution.
[0090] (5) Preparation of stop solution: Weigh citric acid and sodium citrate, add distilled water to dissolve them respectively, and mix the two solutions to prepare a reaction stop solution with a pH value of 4.2 and a concentration of 0.1 mM.
[0091] (6) Pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity test system: Compound test group (A): 50 μL substrate solution + 10 μL test solution + 25 μL enzyme solution + 100 μL sodium citrate + 15 μL Tris-HCl; Compound blank group (B): 50 μL substrate solution + 10 μL test solution + 100 μL sodium citrate + 40 μL Tris-HCl; Control group (C): 50 μL substrate solution + 25 μL enzyme solution + 100 μL sodium citrate + 25 μL Tris-HCl; Blank group (D): 50 μL substrate solution + 100 μL sodium citrate + 50 μL Tris-HCl.
[0092] Tris-HCl buffer, substrate solution and different concentrations of the test solution were added in sequence, placed in a 96-well ELISA plate, mixed thoroughly, and then the enzyme solution was added to initiate the reaction. After incubation at 25°C for 30 minutes, 100 μL of sodium citrate was added to each well to terminate the reaction, and then the absorbance (OD) was immediately measured with an ELISA reader at 340 nm and 460 nm emission wavelengths. The pH value of Tris-HCl buffer was 8.0, and the experimental results were obtained from 3 independent experiments, each with 2 parallels.
[0093] The inhibition rate of pancreatic lipase activity was calculated as follows: Inhibition rate / % = 1-(OD A -OD B ) / (OD C -OD D )]×100%.

[0095]
[0096] Note: a The data are the average of three independent experiments.b Orlistat was used as a positive control and the tested concentration was 0.08 μM.
[0097] As can be seen from Table 1, LMG has a certain pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity, and the inhibition rate can reach 78.3% at 250 μM.
[0098] Example 3 Effect of LMG on lipid content in HepG2 cells
[0099] First, the cytotoxicity of 250μM and 50μM LMG on HepG2 cells was evaluated. There was no obvious cytotoxicity at this test concentration. Then, the activity of different concentrations of LMG in reducing fat content at the cellular level was evaluated by Oil Red O staining. Lovastatin was used as a positive control. The specific method is as follows:
[0100] HepG2 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken and cultured in DMEM low-glucose medium at a cell density of 1×10 5 The cells were inoculated with 2 mL / mL in a 6-well plate, 2 mL in each well, and cultured in a 37°C incubator overnight. After the cells adhered, the supernatant was discarded, the cells were washed once with 1×PBS, starved with serum-free DMEM high-glucose medium for 24 h, washed once with 1×PBS, and HepG2 cells were induced with the prepared long-chain fatty acid (FFAS) inducer to establish a fat accumulation model for 24 h. A drug control group (inducer + test substance + cells), a negative control group (inducer + DMSO + cells) and a blank control group (DMEM low-glucose medium solution containing only 1% BSA) + a positive control group (inducer + lovastatin + cells) were set up. Three replicate wells were set for each concentration, and 10 μL of dilution containing different concentrations of the test substance was added to each well. The cells were placed in a carbon dioxide incubator and continued to be cultured for 24 hours, then washed three times with 1×PBS, fixed with 2 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde per well for 30 minutes, washed three times with 1×PBS, and acted on the cells with 2 mL of 60% isopropanol per well for 5 minutes to increase the permeability of the cells. They were stained with 2 mL of Oil Red O per well for 1 hour in the dark at room temperature, washed with distilled water for 4 times, and then 1 mL of isopropanol was added to each well for binding for 10 minutes, washed out with shaking, and the absorbance was measured at 492 nm with an enzyme reader.
[0101] Table 2 Effect of LMG on lipid content of HepG2 cells
[0102]
[0103] Note: a The data are the average of three independent experiments. b Lovastatin was used as positive control. Compared with the model group, there was a significant difference***P<0.001.
[0104] As shown in Table 2, LMG can significantly reduce the ability of cellular fat content accumulation induced by sodium oleate and sodium palmitate, and compared with the positive control lovastatin, the effect of reducing fat content at the tested concentration is more obvious.
[0105] Example 4 Effect of LMG on triglyceride (TG) content in HepG2 cells
[0106] The cell culture and induction methods are the same as those in Example 3, but the total lipid content is determined by the Oil Red O method in Example 3, while the triglyceride content is determined by the kit method in Example 4. After 24 hours of cell induction, the drug is added for 24 hours, and then the HepG2 cells are digested and centrifuged to keep the precipitate below. The cells are evenly mixed with the lysate and lysed at room temperature for 35 minutes, and the intracellular TG content is directly determined using a triglyceride detection kit. Figure 7 It can be seen that compared with the normal group, after the model group was treated with the inducer mixed with sodium oleate and sodium palmitate for 24 hours, the intracellular TG level increased significantly. After 24 hours of administration, the TG content was significantly reduced at drug concentrations of 50, 5, 1, and 0.2 μM, and the activity at 0.2 μM was still equivalent to that of 10 μM lovastatin.
[0107] Example 5 Effect of LMG on HepG2 insulin resistance
[0108] Insulin is the only hormone in the body that lowers blood sugar, and it is also the only hormone that promotes the synthesis of glycogen, fat, and protein. Insulin resistance can cause disorders in the body's glucose and lipid metabolism. For the HepG2 insulin resistance experiment, metformin was used as a positive control. The specific method is as follows:
[0109] HepG2 cells were evenly inoculated in a 96-well cell culture plate, and 100 μL of cell fluid was given to each well. A normal group, a model group, and a drug-treated group were set up and placed in a constant temperature incubator for 24 hours. After multiple washes with an appropriate amount of PBS solution, the cells were starved with a serum-free culture medium. After overnight culture, 100 μL of a mixture of 0.5 μM insulin and culture medium was added to the model group and the drug-treated group to induce hyperinsulinemia. Then, different concentration gradients of the extract to be tested were added and three replicate wells were set up. The positive control was metformin. After 24 hours of drug administration, the glucose consumption of the cells was measured using a glucose determination kit (oxidase method). Glucose consumption can indirectly reflect insulin resistance. Figure 8As shown in the figure, a high concentration of insulin and culture medium mixture was added to the model group and the drug group, and hyperinsulinemia was induced after 24 hours, which reduced the sensitivity to insulin, indicating that the model group had a resistance to insulin. After treatment with different concentrations of drug administration, it was found that the consumption of cellular glucose increased significantly, indicating that it can alleviate the phenomenon of insulin resistance. It is worth noting that LMG is also significant at a concentration of 0.2μM, and 5μM LMG has the same effect as the positive control metformin at a concentration of 1mM. Therefore, this compound can alleviate the phenomenon of insulin resistance in vitro and has the potential to reduce blood sugar and blood lipids.
[0110] Example 6 Effect of LMG on Glucose Consumption in HepG2 Cells
[0111] Glucose consumption experiments were used to evaluate the glucose consumption promoted by different concentrations of LMG, thereby reflecting the hypoglycemic activity at the cellular level. Metformin was used as a positive control, and the specific method was as follows:
[0112] HepG2 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were routinely digested and cultured in DMEM low-glucose medium. The inoculation cell density was 5×10 4 100 μL / mL was added to a 96-well culture plate, and each well was placed in an incubator for overnight culture. After the cells adhered to the wall, the supernatant was discarded, washed once with 1×PBS, starved for 24 hours with serum-free DMEM high-glucose medium, washed once with 1×PBS, and cultured with DMEM high-glucose medium. A drug control group (culture medium + test substance + cells), a negative control group (culture medium + DMSO + cells), a blank control group (simple culture medium + test substance), and a positive control group (culture medium + metformin + cells) were set up. Three replicate wells were set up for each concentration, and 0.5 μL of dilution containing different concentrations of the test substance was added to each well. The cells were placed in a carbon dioxide incubator and continued to be cultured. After 24 hours, the relative glucose consumption was detected using a glucose determination kit.
[0113] Table 3 Effect of LMG on relative glucose consumption of HepG2 cells
[0114]
[0115] Note: a The data are the average of three independent experiments. b As positive control.
[0116] Before testing the effect on glucose consumption of HepG2 cells, the toxicity of LMG to HepG2 cells was determined, and the results showed that the cell survival rate was still greater than 75% at a maximum concentration of 500 μM. As shown in Table 3, LMG can inhibit the glucose consumption activity of cells at a concentration of 500 μM, indicating that the compound has in vitro hypoglycemic activity.
[0117] Example 7 Effects of hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic activities in mice
[0118] The evaluation method of the hyperglycemic and hyperlipidemia mouse model is as follows:
[0119] (1) Establishment of mouse model
[0120] Male C57BL / 6J mice were purchased from Beijing Weitonglihua Experimental Animal Technology Co., Ltd. Six mice were fed with low-fat diet as the normal group, and the remaining 40 mice were fed with 60% high-fat diet (TP23300) as the model group and the drug-treated group for 27 consecutive days. The model was considered successful when the blood glucose level was higher than 11 mM.
[0121] (2) Drug dissolution and administration method
[0122] LMG powder and positive control were dissolved or dispersed in physiological saline and administered to mice by oral gavage for 15 consecutive days.
[0123] (3) Animal grouping
[0124] In addition to the normal group, the mice with successful modeling were randomly divided into 5 groups, 6 mice in each group, a total of 6 groups. Group 1: normal mouse group (low-fat diet); Group 2: model mouse group (high-fat diet); Group 3: high-dose administration group (high-fat diet + LMG 400 mg / kg); Group 4: low-dose administration group (high-fat diet + LMG 200 mg / kg); Group 5: acarbose hyperglycemia positive control group (high-fat diet + acarbose 100 mg / kg); Group 6: fenofibrate hyperlipidemia positive control group (high-fat diet + fenofibrate 100 mg / kg).
[0125] (4) Mouse Experiment Process
[0126] Fifteen days after intragastric administration, blood was collected from the mice's eye sockets and their blood sugar was tested using a blood glucose meter. Blood was then removed from the eyeballs and the serum was collected by centrifugation to measure blood lipid indicators.
[0127] like Fig. 9 As shown in Figure 2, after 4 weeks of high-fat diet feeding, the blood glucose level in the model group increased significantly, and after 15 days of LMG feeding, the blood glucose level decreased significantly, with significant differences between high and low doses (see Figure 2). Fig.10 ), which indicated that the compound has the ability to lower blood sugar in hyperglycemic mice.
[0128] As shown in Table 4, after 4 weeks of high-fat feeding, the blood lipids of the model group were significantly increased. After LMG was given, triglycerides (TG) and cholesterol (TC) were significantly reduced, indicating that LMG can not only relieve hyperglycemia in mice but also reduce the blood lipid levels of mice.
