Structure-related protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibition by naringenin derivatives.
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2017 June 2
Naturally occurring flavonoids co-exist as glycoside conjugates, which dominate aglycones in their content. To unveil the structure-activity relationship of a naturally occurring flavonoid, we investigated the effects of the glycosylation of naringenin on the inhibition of enzyme systems related to diabetes (protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and α-glycosidase) and on glucose uptake in the insulin-resistant state. Among the tested naringenin derivatives, prunin, a single-glucose-containing flavanone glycoside, potently inhibited PTP1B with an IC50 value of 17.5±2.6µM. Naringenin, which lacks a sugar molecule, was the weakest inhibitor compared to the reference compound, ursolic acid (IC50 : 5.4±0.30µM). In addition, prunin significantly enhanced glucose uptake in a dose-dependent manner in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells. Regarding the inhibition of α-glucosidase, naringenin exhibited more potent inhibitory activity (IC50 : 10.6±0.49µM) than its glycosylated forms and the reference inhibitor, acarbose (IC50 : 178.0±0.27µM). Among the glycosides, only prunin (IC50 : 106.5±4.1µM) was more potent than the positive control. A molecular docking study revealed that prunin had lower binding energy and higher binding affinity than glycosides with higher numbers of H-bonds, suggesting that prunin is the best fit to the PTP1B active site cavity. Therefore, in addition to the number of H-bonds present, possible factors affecting the protein binding and PTP1B inhibition of flavanones include their fit to the active site, hydrogen-bonding affinity, Van der Waals interactions, H-bond distance, and H-bond stability. Furthermore, this study clearly depicted the association of the intensity of bioactivity with the arrangement and characterization of the sugar moiety on the flavonoid skeleton.
